    All these people know know is Gorbachev pizza hut and Yeltsin was friends with Bill Clinton. They do not know that the USSR was split against the democratic will of the people, that state assets were sold for literal pennies or at 5% of their value to oligarchs or western companies, or that there was a massive decline in the quality of life during that time period.

      If I were a Russian, I'd prefer launching the nukes rather than letting the Americans impose the 90's on my country again.
