    So are we discussing countries were fascists live in or run by fascists? Because Russia is 100% the latter

      Russia is a partially neoliberal bourgeois democracy(aka dictatorship of the bourgeoisie) they do stuff like invade Ukraine/Iraq/Afghanistan while being distinct enough from fascism that it is more accurate to just call them neolibs

              Ah Ukraine that’s full of actual fascists who did a coup in 2014, and are now getting used by the west in a proxy war to weaken Russia as Loyd Austin so honestly admitted. Maybe the lesson there is not to let your country be used as a western proxy.
