      I am not saying that I like Putin, but he is winning elections, that are atleast as fair as the ones in Europe or the US/Canada so I am not sure if calling it a dictatorship is entirely fair, unless you are saying it is dictatorship of the capitalist class

          Those are allegations, i prefer to talk about facts. Fact is that Russia held normal elections verified by international observers which Putin won by a large margin. Meanwhile narco-führer Zelensky cancelled the elections in Ukraine indefinitely, banned all the opposition parties, and is now illegitimately holding onto power past the end of his term by martial law. The fact that he is also having his neonazi thugs round up every adult male they can find on the street to send to their deaths is just the cherry on top.
