I know the USSR was far from perfect. However, it had the excuse of being newly comprised of a large land mass united under something that had never been tried before. It did far more to liberate countries from under the boot of imperialism.
Burkina Faso isn’t perfect but they have done a hell of a lot right. Which should set the country on track to improve in any lacking aspects in their more stable future. Look what happened in Cuba.
You honestly had me going up until the end. I wouldn’t have been surprised.
