Not knowing anything about Russian culture I might conjure up statements like, the Russian people know more about ancient Madonna videos than any daily modern political policy narratives being pumped out on the Russian airwaves. If paranoia narratives like being surrounded by capitalist dogma are the norm, certainly a centralized capitalist monopoly will eventually dawn and manifest itself on the Russian psyche, that is the capitalists have long since been inside Russian doors, all run by a centralized mob boss.
IMO.
