    I wore a full PPE and dove in there.

    They seem to be thinking that this is just a phase, and once Putin is gone, everyone who voted for him or his party is going to start voting for communists and thus Soviet Union will be soon restored.

    Also some person was being feeling deep cognitive dissonance (to the point of crying alone) when their history professor gave him facts about atrocities Soviet Union committed.

      Fucking hilarious! I mean, I was naïve when I was in high school, but not like that. That’s next-level batshit.

      1. 15%(probably less) is huge amount of people, but I don’t see them making big difference.
      2. If they wanted to vote for communists, they would vote already. But they didn’t and probably will not.
