Lol, as an Asian person it’s always hilarious to me that modern Russians like to think of themselves as non-western. Despite the fact that Russias expansion east was one of the largest acts of genocidal colonial expansions in human history, and they continue utilizing their asianic population as second class citizen cannon fodder.
Behold, the lemm.ee banger with some mild undertones of racism (“I’m Asian so I find this part of Russians funny and can speak on them confidently…”) and the assumption that Imperial Russia somehow transcended through the Soviet Union into the Federation. Some truly giga-lib shit I’d like to point out again that got you 4 seal-claps. Where does it mention that in World-Systems Theory?

The Soviet Union had some ecological disasters, that is for sure; but the conditions for Mongolians, Buryat, etc materially improved under their rule. Imperial Russia? Yeah no. There’s a reason the Bolsheviks came to power. But yeah it’s just all the same, right? Is that another thing you find “funny” about Russians? As for the Federation, no fucking shit. They’re nationalists. Why would they think of themselves non-western but draft/view eastern-territory soldiers as more expendable? Are you listening to yourself? Most of us support the Soviet Union and learned from it’s failures, support China; critically support Russia only in it’s fight against the global hegemony.

Where the fuck do you get this stuff? It’s a federation of multiple territories. Do you really think Moscow thinks of itself as non-western? Are you okay?
