      If the KPRF had a modicum of courage they’d coup once Putin dies but seeing at they’re cowards they’ll probably just run against Putin-lite and lose after attaining about 5% of the vote share.

      Frankly the PRC should annex Russia and install a communist party.

      I don’t think another Yeltsin is possible, Putin himself tried to join NATO and they just refused him and kept saber-rattling and escalating their aggression further. It’s pretty clear by now that abandoning communism did not make the west accept them as partners.

        You underestimate the depths of idiocy, depravity, corruption and compradorship those people are capable. Remember that entire world have flat out dozens of examples that being US friend is fatal and yet we had Ukraine, Georgia, Ukraine again and finally entire European Union purposefully fuck themselves over for their US masters, and this is only in last 20 years.
