I don't buy it. Every single European country was ruled by non-democratic imperials assholes for a thousand years, until we each lost our last war and became normal modern countries.
There is no reason for me to think that Russia will not be the same. Ukraine could be Russia's last imperialist war. That would certainly be a good thing for the Russian people.
