Well 2ble highly unpopular opinion: russians are a tad baked in a very passeist ideology that may make them do a good things while they have ill intentions.

The data so far have been pretty checked, and pretty alarming on the actual state of democracy. To be honest it looks like NSA/CIA are now copying the worst of the KGB bad practices that made USSR being tagged dictature.

Russians thinks democracy cannot reform themselves and it will lead to chaos as the truth about USSR made USSR crumble down by losing their allies in the western world.

Is it sure?

Let Russia spend money thinking they undermine democracies while actually helping them being stronger.

Hell may be paved with good intentions and bad intentions may also results in good deeds.

Anyway, when you have lived during cold war it is fun to see Russia and USA swap their place.
