United Russia is the nationalist bourgeoisie, not the imperialist western bourgeoisie that were looting the country. The nationalists stopped the foreign looting and solidified their power base. The CPRF’s support, as well as broader support for socialism in general, is something that UR can’t “eliminate,” it’s far too big of a movement for that. They can try, but it’s an accelerating movement as capitalism isn’t what it was sold as.
What’s the difference for a normal person? Half of European and Asian banks are full of these “nationalists” money stollen from the working people, and a country with litteral goldmines, rare earth, unlimited timber and some of the largest oil reserves is less developed then most of the middle east states whose population was nomadic less then a hundred years ago.
Id cheer nearly anything that challenges the current regime, but I’m afraid in a while you will find out, that there can be no organised popular movement there able to challenge the regime same as currently there can be none in the western states. Any live and not imprisoned opposition politicians in Russia are either controlled or currupted, every one they can’t easilly controlled is killed and imprisoned. Not that I particularly liked any of them, but this is how it works. And the masses can do shit against a modern internal army. So untill the regime falls by internal or external forces, there will be no change there.
