Russia is ~100% western 'civilization' or culture. Ethnically,
linguistically, religiously 'western'.

Well, you could argue that the russian empire was/is more
limited than the british empire, but that's about it.
Since russia is pretty much western, it shares all the western
(or global) political vices.
Have you noticed how russia went from feudal totalitarianism
(tzarism) to commie totalitarianism, that is feudalism
recycled? Also noticed how the russians adopted a piece of
garbage like the marxist religion, a product 100% 'made in
europe'?
I do think that the anti russian propaganda coming from
washington and their european vasal states and pets is both
stupid and dangerous, but idealizing russia isn't too helpful
either.
