Yes, they have that "social conservativism" that has become the shared obsession of the American right thanks to Russia's brilliant disinfo and behavioral modification campaign.
I just meant that, economically, they do not share American conservative values. For example, the typical poor Russian can't just work their way up the social ladder, start their own business, hit it big, own a bunch of property, etc. You must be born into it, full stop. This is the piece that American conservatives fail to understand in their Russian aspirations, and why, at the end of the day, they really do not want to be Russian despite what they've been brainwashed to believe.
