That is not a world ideology, that is just a corrupt way of doing business. And I see their political goals as limited to re-establishing the old Russian Empire.

The old Cold War was about Marxism-Leninism vs Adam Smith-Milton Friedmanism

By the last few years of the SU, the ideology had corrupted into the nursery of the mafiosi. That’s why it died with relatively little bloodshed, for all the passion of its early years.
