and the fact they call him Tsar has not much to do with communism. sure they support communism but they dont practice it. their political leanings really dont have anything to do with the threat to the status quo that they pose.

and back to the point at hand, yes it’s straightforward. but if you thought it was so straightforward, why the name calling? you can approve or not, but that doesnt mean you can insinuate some kind of evil behind it. communism itself is not an evil thing, it’s the people abusing it that are.

Russia is a gangster country, all the money in the world won’t get you anywhere there without FSB or mafia connections.

Most objections to her actions seem to be based on whether the objector approves of leftist politics or not, so it seems a fairly straightforward issue.

anyway, Russia is a capitalist country with communist leanings. if you wanna talk communist, talk china or north korea. plus i dont see anything wrong in appearing in a communist magazine. her choice atleast.

i guess the biggest threat to the US and it’s allies is the russians but you’re not likely to see her donning a flak jacket waving the sickle and hammer on the roof of the whitehouse. mostly because as i said before, russia isnt communist… plus she isnt russian.

Are the Conservatives part of the current UK government? You would get some funny looks if you said they were.

Gimme a break, this is stupid sensationalism against a non-existent boogieman. Try again.

This is not just a personal view; imagine the controversy were a top Hollywood celeb to go around giving interviews to white supremacist papers.

Of course she has expressed no political views so she may just have unthinkingly and innocently consented to the interview. I am not convinced this is the case, however.

But are you sure there is any connection between appearing in the pages of a newspaper and endorsing its editorial views? Skimming the article, I don’t see anything particularly political.

I realise there is the “Other Russia”, but that seems to have become a minority position. So forgive me for generalising, but in this case it may be justified.

Artefact dude, did you really have to use that phrase?

WTF ? Where did this come from ? Today the most tyrannical regimes are so-called “democracies”. What, you’re one of those USians who’s still scared shitless of the “RED THREAT” ? Pathetic.
