Despite the contradictions, that's not at all uncommon.
I met the strangest person recently. Fairly hot super woke 24 year old blonde chick born in russia raised in the us.
She actually said that the USSR was good because it was less patriarchal than the USA. Thats her only lens to view value through, the patriarchy. She said the USSR ended bride kidnapping in Kazakhstan so they're less patriarchal. Also admitted the KGB killed her dad and grandpa but still she pined for stalins firm hand in her life. Nevermind the USSR had no female leaders and the US does, nevermind fucking everything. She probably says stalins name in bed with her strapon wielding lesbian friends.
