Pretty much now an argument between pro-Putin communists (Which sounds like a fucking oxymoron to me) and anti-Putin communists (which I thought was the fucking norm).

Putin isn’t an autocrat but a state oligarch. Yeltsin sold out the country to a very small number of oligarchs and when Putin came around he set the country forward. He ain’t no Communist but he still looks after the interests of Russia, in that way he’s a nationalist but no more than America is. The hypocrisy would be to say Putin “worse” than the US which is wrong. If America were in a similar political-economic situation as Russia it would be the same in many ways.
