I question how storming a church would've gone in the U.S.

Also, the potential results of this ever growing discontent with Putin will be interesting to watch. I'd be interested in watching the Russians give Communism another go if democratic elections remained in place. I feel most of the ills of places like the USSR, the PRC, and the DPRK were borne of their authoritarian regimes, and weren't necessitated by their economic system.

Not to say their economic systems weren't without significant logistical and practical limitations, but I'd like to see somebody try the whole Communism thing again with the people still retaining control over their own government.

And by somebody, I mean somebody else. Not here, in case it goes horribly, disastrously wrong lol.

But I like a lot of the ideals of far left socialism and communism. People working together towards a common goal - the ever improving well being of society - with little emphasis on concepts like money and significant individual wealth.
