      they may miss the social safety net of communism but they'll still seethe about the lives lost to the evil russkies, completely glossing over their own fascists' culpability in all of it

        Yep, they want to join and play second fiddle to the primary imperialists... UK, America, etc so they can also get in on the plunder and have the social safety nets they like also.

        Kind of like the Scandinavian countries.

          an entire country of people who thought they were gonna get western social democracy after their counterrevolution, and they STILL havent realized that the only reason the west had social democracy of any form was as a defense against communism

          they got duped but they'll die before they admit it

            This too. They have had 30+ years since the fall of the Soviet Union and are still miserable. A case of getting what you wanted and it being not what you wanted, ironically.
