Why would I want you to defend a piece of shit like Putin? I responded to your completely vibes-based comment about how the poor were so oppressed by the party with solid data to show that the Soviet Union had the most dramatic inversion of wealth inequality of any country in history.
As a response, you first want to ignore it and pivot to comparing the wealth of a union that took over an underdeveloped feudal backwater and lived under constant siege to the most wealthy country in history. Then, when called on that, you want to instead pivot to talking about Putin.
Get it together friend.
Yes, when empires collapse, there's often a depression. Even in their colonies.
There's no way you're this dense this must be a bit
There's the civility of the tankie

Apologists for communist dictatorships.
Communist apologism is when you present data from a well-respected neoclassical economist
