And the fact that you don't even understand why using nominal GDP is nonsensical really does add to the comedy.
Confidently incorrect, the funniest kind of incorrect.

This still doesn't make Russia magically have a larger industrial base than NATO, it's absurd.
You think Price Point Parity is a measure of size, so I'm not sure you even understand what you are trying to claim. You're certainly not using the right terms

I certainly am using the right terms. Cost of production in Russia is far lower than in the west, which makes it absurd to make GDP comparisons.
