One thing to remember if you're trying to understand Trump's continual love of Putin.
Putin is an enemy of the west. He's an enemy of democracy. He's an enemy of the rights of ordinary people.
But he's not an enemy of the rich.

I'm not sure that nations only matter when they are controlled by an oligarch. There's something in my head about nations being controlled by rich people. Rather than just an oligarch in the political sense. I don't know. I need to think about that a little more.
Yes, it matters. Not much has chaned since Vladimir Lefebvre has developed his Theory of Two Systems of Ethical Cognition.
@ianbetteridge do east and west or nations really matter any more? It feels pretty openly "oligarchs versus the rest of us". Nations only matter when they are controlled by an oligarch (Gulf states, Russia, China, USA) but they only reflect the whim of the man at the top, not any national interest
