It's easy, there's no such thing as a good Russia for Liberals. Can't be Capitalist, can't be Socialist, can't be Tsarist...
The only good Russia is one that's Balakanized and exploited by western oligarchs.
From interacting with liberals they seem to think Russia is still under a communist party.
Sometimes they try to decouple liberalism from fascism and claim they went straight to fascism from Socialism.
they liked 90s russia, when it was weak, full of child prostitutes and people were dying en-masse from substance abuse (and the barn doors were wide open so they could loot it)
History starts when I say it does
I too enjoy a good strawman fallacy.
Would you mind elaborating?
I’m guessing they’re talking along the tune of ‘communism was never done right’ except it’s ‘the liberalism was never done right’
Not the other commenter but the meme infers USSR was better, and infers people knew what was to happen afterwards. Russia was making progress a little bit before Putin. I constantly think about what if I wasn't adopted. I'll probably be dead, forced to fight on the wrong side of war in Ukrainian. Then again idk what the USSR would be if it never fallen, completely blocking foreigners from adopting their orphans.
