      ☝️🤓modern day russia is not the USSR

      no shit

      trump’s not saying anything good

      he’s correct that people love japan and germany when they fucking suck. also most people don’t hate ww2 era japan enough for the horrible shit they were doing alongside the nazis. not that trump’s stupid ass was saying any of that, but it’s also not that deep. its a post on hexbear dot net’s chapo board. its really not meant to be a serious political statement

        Yeah, that’s fair, I just don’t like giving it to him because he arrived at the right conclusion in the worst way possible. He says this while threatening BRICS with trade wars should they move away from the US dollar.

        Literally the only perspective he’s coming from is the white ethnofascist angle which is fucking dumb because Putin and modern Russia are not as ethnonationalist as his brain is

          i personally don’t think trump has ever come to a conclusion about anything. he’s completely empty and just says whatever is the most opportunistic thing in that moment, even when it directly contradicts something he just said prior.

      It’s still the side that upholds the tradition of the red armies, that paid pensions to old red army soldiers, that upkept memorials to soviet soldiers.

      Compare that to what other post-soviet countries like Ukraine have done, tearing it all down and putting up a bunch of tacky Nazi-collaborator bullshit. Russia is still the moral superior to the west.

      Yet Russia is still crushing nazis while other members of the USSR, namely Ukraine and the Baltics, are very clear about wishing they had fought on the other side.

      I think the tittle means good = logicaly coherent, not good = moraly/rethoricaly good for us. I think you know this and/or could have understood this from the context.
