A nation’s literature explains a lot about their ethos. Having studied Russian literature in college, I offer this observation. War, death, poverty, and societal ills loom large, as do themes of unfairness and the inability to overcome “the system” and corrupt bureaucrats. Unless you’re wealthy or powerful, life holds very little for you. There’s nothing left to do but inflict the misery on others. One therefore wonders why MAGA folks embrace Russia and its miseries with such fervor. #Politics
@cassandra17lina it’s a mindset, the poor and powerless turning to nationalism and Basking in the Reflected Glory of a strongman leader. It is self esteem from the outside in.
