>Russian oligarch Boris Berezovsky, in a 29 October 1996 interview in the Financial Times, named seven Russian bankers and businessmen from six businesses that he claimed controlled about 50% of the economy of Russia and most of the mass media in Russia, and had helped bankroll Boris Yeltsin's re-election campaign in 1996
>>18766075Yeltsin and capitalism was the worst thing to have happened to, not only Russia but, Europe. If the USSR managed to continue existing/Yeltsin fucking died in that explosion when he was a child, Europe + the USSR would be their actual bloc with actual power and independence from the Chinese and the amerigolems
>>18766100>thinks communism isn't yet another rotten system and that other great powers would have just continued allowing a weakened Russia to keep its sphere of influence
>>18766104name a system you think isn't rotten then
>>18766118Mao-Nazism (gigabased and blackpilled)
>>18766075Russia's problem isn't communism or capitalism, Russia's problem is that it's full of Russians
Bump
>>18766104This isn't what I meant fag, I don't think the USSR would have steamrolled Europe and turned everyone Communist. I think the Warsaw Pact would have naturally eroded but instead of collapsing the USSR and ruining Europe forever. There is a world where the USSR survives, the USA continues its deranged path of ultra capitalism, and the USSR seeks to join and support Europe proper so they can stand vs the usa and China as an independent bloc. Very likely too considering how social democratic Europe is and how reformist the USSR was becoming.
