36. I'm sorry, but using force to put down people who want freedom is something I do not agree with

Despite the fact that the members of the Warsaw Pact were liberated by Stalin and the Red Army at the end of the last world war, that didn't give Russia the right to install pro-Moscow regimes in all the countries of the Eastern Bloc. That's no better than any other imperialist nation that came before.

If you want to put the blame on somebody who let Russia get ripped to pieces by capitalists from the west, you should probably be referring to Boris Yeltsin.

As far as market socialism goes, I'm astonished you haven't even heard of it:
