I sure hope you're not a Scotsman.
Definitely not a 'true' one, they wouldn't lick the boot of their UK imperialist masters. Who in turn lick the boot of their US masters.

I don't know if you're playing dumb or actually dumb, but no true scotsman is a logical fallacy, where you say someone isn't a true [thing] because they don't meet ever precise definitions you make up.

Also, you do realize Scotland is part of the UK, right?

Anyway, this is all just you trying to distract from the fact that you can't defend the actions of Russia, or your starting position. You have to constantly shift things and hope people forget. You aren't a communist if you support the bourgeoisie using the proletariat for stupid self-centered goals. It doesn't matter where we're from. The proletariat everywhere is being used and abused by the elite. A communist would know this. It doesn't matter if you're in Russia or the US. They're using us for their own gain, and they don't care about us.
