Firstly, I was talking about the USSR and not the modern day Russia.
But even with modern day Russia, which in some ways has become more politically liberalized, yea, there is no comparison and France is more democratic.
The fact that there is something like the Yellow Vest movement is in and of itself proof. Where is the Russian Yellow Vest movement? It’s nowhere. Why not? Because Russians are habitually more afraid of their government. They’re trained to be afraid from birth, like dogs, like caged animals.
What happens when Russians rise up? They quickly find themselves intimidated, in jail, or dead. How many journalists got shot in recent years in France for publishing things against the government’s interests? None that I know of.
What worker protections exist on the books in France vs Russia? Compare them. Which country is better? Which country is more likely to follow their own laws?
lmao france is more democratic than the societ union? is that what you are gonna tell the yellow vests?
I stand by what I said.

So yea, France is the winner here.
lmao i’m not even gonna read this drivel
It is absurd to think France is less democratic than the USSR or Russia.
Whats even absurder is thinking the USSR and Russia are the same. You think everything stayed the same after the coup where tanks shot at the Kreml?
USSR and Russia were both mentioned, they were not assumed to be the same.
