What change in behavior? Conservatives hated the communist Soviet Union, but Russia as ruled by czars or fascist dictators is everything they admire.
(Also, to answer your question: yeah, probably.)
"What change" ? They were the cause of the red scare. Weird how the enemy suddenly becomes a friend, Trump is duped and the westworlds most open spy ever. EVERRRR
You completely missed the point, which is that post-1990 Russia is the polar fucking opposite of the Soviet Union that the conservatives hated during the Red Scare, in terms of ideology along the left-right spectrum.
Trying to pretend fascist Russia is the same as the USSR is bullshit on the same caliber as calling the modern Republicans the "party of Lincoln."
Fun fact: Lincoln was Marx's penpal and Marx influenced Lincoln's opposition to slavery :)
WTF are you talking about? Nothing about my comment is "defending" a damn thing, especially not fascists.
Not only are you apparently a moron with zero reading comprehension skills, you're too defective even to troll properly!
Yer a cunt Harry
