I'm including USSR in the term Russia because obvious reasons, it was still the same country with different name, and USSR annexed bunch of countries around it.
Those countries that "broke from USSR" were independent nations before.
No one has instilled as much hate against communism as the few dictatorships calling themselves communist have. Not even USA, where 'communist' has been a slur for the past hundred years
I should have probably said they claim to be socialist, but USSR and North Korea was first ones in my mind.
I like your question, it's only purpose is to try catch me on some small technicality, or get a chance to bombard 17 links to tankie wiki with alternative facts about how Stalin was actually a great democratically selected leader
Anyways, very fitting username.
What you were rambling on is not worth an answer with thought behind it. I'm only fascinated how messed up one's thought process can be to come to that sorta conclusions.
Gotta be messed up from head if you think this is what I'm saying. And still defending Russian imperialism for some reason?
The Red Scare is a more like side goal because communism threatens oligarchies. The Soviet Union also had its hand in persecuting communists.
Tsar was gone by something like the purges in 30s
