i do feel for the average Russian, they need to be the change that they want though
I don’t. We (Europeans) warned them for years that their goverment is a shitshow. People got poisoned, disappeared into gulags and driven into exile. When we met them online in chats and games, we were like “Hey Alexi-RU, you gotta handle that putin situation. It’s getting out of hand.” Sure it’s dangerous, but doing nothing is dangerous too. Should have at least fled the country. Whoever’s still there and not fighting putin had it coming.
They had a unique opportunity with the relatively peaceful end of the USSR and look how they have been behaving in the last 35 years. They did everything possible to get back on the path of authoritarianism and genocidal imperialism.
Putin is a symptom, russian society (almost all of it) is the cause.
They won’t change until they are treated as they treat others (without full on russian-style barbarism such as mass summary killings of civilians, castrations of prisoners and so on).
I will take time before they figure it out
the war really needs to come to them and I think it’s on its way

oh that’s a whole different kind of mess, what we are dealing with is a flavor of the month kind of insanity. Russian insanity is baked in
Awww, I feel do sorry for those poor idiots who cannot buy Starbucks or Victoria Secret because their government is murdering people in other countries.
Why I can give you just one upvote?
Talk about speed running the Soviet Union.
If the US banned talking negatively about the war in Iran with the threat of prison time, I’d be talking constantly about gas prices, even though I own an EV.
I’d be doing more than that if that were the case
Yet they all manage to play cs2 every day??
Is sticks what they call cigarettes?
From the context, I’d say yes. I have never heard the word “stik” in Russian before, but in the context it’s clear form her intonation that that’s one of the tobacco products she is talking about.
Not sure if she’s doing it deliberately but the second one was agitating pretty well I though.
Is this like the Great Wall 2.0?
