    I wouldn’t trust a capitalist or a neocolonizer, but they might occasionally say something interesting out loud.

    I’m sure part of him suspected that interfering in Russia post the USSR was never about humanitarianism, he just doesn’t want to admit it.

      Incredibly valid point, it’s easy to adjust your self narrative after the dust settles in order to make yourself the good guy, but it’s too late as multiple generations already went through the misery created by people like him.

        Kind of reminds me of how after China was liberated from Monarchism, the Last Emperor of China would be chaperoned by CPC officials and he would meet and speak to the poor ex-slaves and serfs and “commoners” as they told him how hard life was for them and how shitty he was. One person I think assaulted him, and afterward he completely understood why and didn’t blame him.
