    I would look to historians like Dovid Katz and search for “double genocide theory”, I would not like to make this an argument.

    Please change your language when posting in the comm. “Authoritarian” and “totalitarian” are not useful descriptors and are historically connected to trying to equate the USSR and nazi Germany in order to do holocaust trivialization.

          I think its clear that I am saying that Russia is an oppressive country with goals of being an empire. I am saying that it is wrong for them to do so, and more generally wrong for anyone to do so. Hence me calling them authoritarian and comparing them to the GOP.
