The people in Russia have no legal way to challenge their government. Thanks, USSR.
what it has todo with USSR?
They ran a shitty corrupt government, tried to conquer eastern Europe, failed, renamed themselves to "Russian Federation", and are now trying to recapture lost states while feeding people into a never ending meat grinder.
I feel like, if the USSR is to blame for modern Russia, then Tsarist Russia shares some of the blame as well
