Well you're definitely in favour of Russia's autocratic governance which robs their people of a democratic future.

What do you think is an autorcatic Government?   I am not in favor of anything bar Democracy and countries who have constitutions allowing for sepeaation of powers.   In terms of constitution - the Russian Constitution is of a democatic nature, but open to abuse - but Ukraine for instance has no Constitution and rule by decree,  

Elements of Democracy includes freedom of speech.   In countries where that is undermined by Government - it is undermining the basic  constgitutional rights of people.   

Where the bureaucracy runs the Government by mandates and reguilations not approved by the legislatiure - the Constitution is under attack.   Where the FBI investigated illegally 280 000 people opposing the Government the situation and where court rulings are ignored,  the situation is even more problematic.   The USA are undermining the US Constitution on a daily basis - probably double the number of times the Russians do.    .   Compared to the USA  where people are held in jail without trials for more than 30 months and the FBI, CIA and WH have weekly meetings with the Press and internet platforms to prevent any criticism of Government actions the situation is basically tolitarian.

I criticize  Government abuses of the Constitution of countries and view it  in an extremely negative light.   As  much as Russia are criticized for it.  the USA is  doing even worse.   When that happens in a Democracy it signals that the end of Democracy will be inevitable.    .
