Re: [Marxism] Living Larger in the New Russia (WSJ)

["Joaquin Bustelo" <jbustelo@xxxxxxxxx>]

Walter writes, to introduce a glowing article about Russia in the Wall
Street Journal: "Russia has gone back to capitalism, and I'm sure that the
benefits of this aren't evenly, but the popularity of Putin seems to be
genuinely rooted in material improvements."

Have you gone completely off your rocker? The impact of the restoration of
capitalism on working people was nothing short of genocidal. Look at the
population and demographic figures. And STOP BELIEVING THE BULLSHIT IN THE
PIG PRESS.

As for Putin, he was a Stalinist pig before, and he's a capitalist pig now.
And you know what they say about today's pig...
