Why would communist support capitalists like Putin and Xi-Jinping which aren’t better than Liberal-capitalists ?
I am all in for stopping liberal capitalism, but I am more interested in implementing a happinex index like Buthan than living in oligarch-capitalist-regime like Russia/China
“I’m not a Putin apologist, I just coincidentally reach the same talking points as Russian propaganda through my totally unbiased research!”

I’m not a Saddam, I just coincidentally reached the same talking points as Iraqi propaganda through my totally unbiased research.
russian propaganda is actually far beyond this, claiming that they are saving the people of the donbas from genocidal ukrainian nazis, which that guy didn’t say. Saying “hey maybe this isn’t as one-sided as western media makes it out to be” is actually closer to a centrist position
