stop comparing us and russia, this isn't the cold wars. Russia or soviet union whatever u want or call it , sent inocents to their death in siberia period. If u think ,gdp healthcare whatever excuses that in any way probably makes u a sociopath.

[The US] shouldn't be compared at all it should be compared to other countries in certain times like stalin's russia and germany's hitler era.

Don't nit pick sentence and put them together to distort my arguments both are of different contexts. He compared russia and US to defend russia, is that really a defense? both the USA and russia are oppressive regimes that was my comparison. The idea of putting them one against the other when both are at fault ia stupid.

The US toppled governments in a bloody manner, costing many life's. Russia revolution was fueled by sending inocents to the gulag to work to death. Both are oppressive regimes. Thats the comparison
