More genius takes by Azov Something. Literally just a bad buzzword salad lol. "Authoritarian state capitalist ethnonationalist regime"
I've heard a lot of things about the USSR. But not once did I hear someone actually say they were ethno-nationalist. The USSR, compromised of multiple countries and ethnicities, known for world wide aid to SA countries, Asian countries.
North Korea certainly isn't a paradise but it's doing what it can and they are making process, despite being sanctioned off the Earth. If a country giving a Middle finger to the west doesn't get your (critical) support, don't be a leftist then.
This man is getting dumber by the day it seems.
You know who is ethno-nationalist, though, Mr Adam? Your Ukrainian friends.
"Nooooo they're (mostly) European!!! That means they're (mostly) progressive-nationalist!!! Nooooo"
Ah yes, USSR were national and ethnic minorities were given effective affirmative action programs and white supremacists who violently reacted were quelled with no mercy. USSR where African Americans immigrated to and said they finally were treated like a human being for the first time in their lives.
Literally just making shit that is the complete opposite of reality but go off little man.
Wait, I think I got it. You may have heard claims that USSR had a policy of "Russification", especially towards Baltics and Ukraine (coincidentally, the countries that whine about this imagined slight the most). That's probably it!
Still, ethnic supremacy isnt the same as ethnonationalism. The Russian Empire oppressed ethnic minorities, but wasnt ethnonationalist, it didnt claim that ethnic minorities were a different nation from the russian one and thus had to be expelled, like zionists and nazis do. Nevertheless, this is pure cope, because there was no "russification" in the USSR. And the Baltic States, the ones who whine about it the most, are literally the ones with less evidence to claim otherwise. Like literally, the Lithuanian, Latvian and Estonian SSRs were for its entire existence (1940-1990) ruled by ethnic lithuanians, latvians and estonians. The "stalinist genocide" they supposedly suffered under Stalin? It was implemented by local communists who werent ethnic russians. No russian ever ruled them, unlike other republics like Moldova or Kazakhstan. So they have 0 arguments there.
