    The cold war was against communism; modern Russia is super capitalist and corrupt, which is what the right wing wants

      Modern russia and old russia isnt much different… only real difference is they are more open to global trade… (that and their empire fell apart)

      Communism was just the boogeyman for the miltary complex to have an excuse to an overbloated miltary spending and for capitlists to wittle away worker rights.
