(Have no idea if I asked this before or not, but here goes.)

So basically, is there any realistic hope of Russia becoming socialist once more at some point within the new few decades? Preferably even a return of the Soviet Union?

    create an opening for the KPRF to win the elections

    KPRF and Zyuganov had won in the 1996 elections. They then proceeded to do nothing and allow Yeltsin back.

      Zyuganov sucks. The real communists in the KPRF need to get rid of him and his cronies. It wouldn’t surprise me if he was in cahoots with Putin.

      Zyuganov is on par with Gorbachev. He serves no role and is barely controlled opposition. Even if he was allowed to win the election, there is a strong chance he would instead just devolve to a nationalistic and reactionary “socialism”.
