If we say "Capitalism is ruining our lives", it's fine, but if someone from Russia says "Capitalism is ruining your lives", folks are ready to throw down.
I think that's more the hypocrisy of a Russian citizen criticizing American-style capitalism and imperialism when Russia has its own brand of it.
