meet comrade hellas, the self proclaim ‘marxist’. dude calls putin a ‘tsarist’. he also a blatant idiot saying russia has no history. he supported zelensky. used to subscribe to this guy… but then when ukraine comes i unsubcribe him, he made really shitty content and using nazi slogans time to time…
I’ve seen someone on the r/ claiming that Putin has a number of references to imperial Russia, and that wouldn’t seem too far off his nationalism and anti-communist rethotic. I’m curious why you say it’s dumb to call him “tsarist” (legit question no irony)
Because there is obviously no monarchy nor any attempts to recreate it in Russia, duh. Monarchism is pretty specific term, not a buzzword for when eastern leader do not want to relinquish his power to US puppet opposition.
Being a tsarist means wanting to make the tsar the head of state which is probably not what he wants.
There is a lot of difference from an oligarchist to an monarchist, i doubt Putin sees himself as an monarch emperor or some shit like that.
