re: #243 Justanotherhuman

One of the reasons - now used as a political cudgel - was that Russia was thrown into the extreme “free market economy” like a baby that can’t swim thrown into an ocean. A very polluted, corrupt ocean. I think there is a measure of responsibility on the Western neo-liberal circles for that, because the “advisers” quite often came from the outside.

Now the time is remembered as the “cursed 90s” and is brought up every time one talks about liberalism (alongside “Gayrope” and such).
