Besides being a dumb ass comment that fails to address any of the points raised, why would you think that people who have a fondness for the Soviet Union would be fond of Russia, an imperialist capitalist oligarchy that has completely shed itself of all associations with socialist values?

Because I'm not in the mood for someone to call a cry for help from a victim in Ukraine "superficial" and blanket statements that Russia means no harm ("There is zero evidence that Russia plans or wants to invade a NATO member") and then saying we should just stick our head in the sand ("isolationist attitude") when clearly Putin wants to restore the Soviet Union and has rejected capitalism in his own country, leaving socialism as the most likely choice. Everything old is new again.
