this may induce :some-controversy: but we can all agree his accent is :chefs-kiss:
Russia is not reactionary in the Marxist sense. If you mean it is "conservative" then, yes, it is.
It is an illiberal country with a strong following of the Orthodox Church. You want me to get mad that their historical and cultural values don't align with Western liberalism?
Is not supporting Russia going to change their entire cultural outlook and identity? Will they see the error of their ways when Western leftists call them "sexist" and "homophobic"?
I think you maybe forget that even the US didn't have a majority support of same-sex marriage until 2008. I'm not sure what functional difference "support" is going to make in that regard.
Waving a Russian flag and calling them "based" is kinda cringe and basically LARP, but I just don't see where you're coming from in this angle.
