The adversarial relationship between Washington and Moscow prevented U.S. officials from sharing any information about the plot beyond what was necessary, out of fear Russian authorities might learn their intelligence sources or methods.

    I should have probably said they claim to be socialist, but USSR and North Korea was first ones in my mind.

    I like your question, it’s only purpose is to try catch me on some small technicality, or get a chance to bombard 17 links to tankie wiki with alternative facts about how Stalin was actually a great democratically selected leader

      Stalin was far greater than any US President and a lot of presidents/heads in European countries that have had anti-immigrant and/or white coloniser agenda, solely on the basis that Stalin never genocided any aboriginals or natives, or discriminated against people that are not Caucasians.

      It is interesting that you think USSR and DPRK are dictatorships, just because they oppose imperialist white fascism, are socialist states, and face sanctions or atrocities. North Korea today is so poor because USA bombed the fuck out of it in 1980s.

      Bet you think USA and Europe are “civilised” democracy places? I would also correct you on that. Every single western country that today claims to be a democracy, until they looted, pillaged and genocided in non-white countries, were all dictatorships. There was no western democracy, and there is still none. And they are less democratic than whatever China/Russia are, despite centuries of looting and genocide. Try to voice against western heads, war crimes and actual problems and see how fast you get jailed or disappeared or starved to death.

            What you were rambling on is not worth an answer with thought behind it. I’m only fascinated how messed up one’s thought process can be to come to that sorta conclusions.

              Yeah, gotta be messed up in the head to think of people and countries that are not white and do not loot, colonise or genocide. Sad! I can(not) feel you.

              Just in case you made up thoughts, I am from India, still the most peaceful and largest world democracy that does not have a history of invasion.

                Gotta be messed up from head if you think this is what I’m saying. And still defending Russian imperialism for some reason?
