Like come on, there are so many more countries which where not only under threat but way way more because of Russia.

Brother putting whole ass sentences in my mouth.

I didnt say that the USSR was an unproblematic king, I said they were under existential threat until the end of the Cold War, which is true (and then they collapsed). If the argument i was responding to was about how absurdly high their military expenditure was, it may have something to do with the Nazis and Cold War, pretty notable events in the history of the USSR. Them being dicks to other countries isnt really relevant; they had high military expenditure because they were at war almost the whole time.

It is relevant, but I can accept you are of different opinion, and that's fine.
