Who else agrees with me that Cold War II has begun and Russia is still Communist?

Question

The Communists in Moscow still treat Poland like it's own puppet state and the same with the Baltic states and Ukraine. Don't you think that Russia should just admit they are communist already and save us a lot of trouble?

Answer 1

russia is not communist, however, their brand of democracy falls short of the standard. a danger in ascribing togas as most would term the current american system as being unduly pseudo aristocratic/authoritarian under the garb of capitalist democracy...

Answer 2

i wouldnt say they where communist, yet they arent an democracy - they seem more of a dictatorship in all honesty with medvedevev as putins puppet

Answer 3

Communist is not the same as totalitarian or  synonym for bad, It refers to a specific kind of government  which Russia no longer has.

Answer 4
