What I suspect is that Wetpheonix is supposed to present a "conservative" face for Russia. IOW, they are not really very different from us, face the same hardships, and have the same values. He even depicts Putin's opponents in Russia as "liberals," but this is horribly misleading, since Russia is not a "liberal and conservative" country. It is a country where "Russian Orthodox Christians" ride around on motorcycles carrying icons of the Virgin Mary and Joseph Stalin. It is a country where "nationalist" parties are Communist parties who also insist that Russian Orthodoxy is the true religion, and their cohorts are in East Ukraine right now killing Protestants and Catholic clergy. Russia is a country where people walk around calling themselves "fascist fascists" and run military boot camps using Russian tax payer money, and then sends these trainees into foreign countries as part of a military invasion.

Wetpheonix depends on our ignorance of Russian society in order to fool us into thinking they are something like us, and that Putin should be supported as he is a "conservative" just like Ronald Reagan.

Watch his posts carefully and you will see their propagandist nature as well as the lies and "spinning" he does on anything that has to do with his country. If he were just an honest Russkie telling us his feelings, he would not lie.

Instead of pushing bull crap just take some encyclopedia and learn definitions for liberal and conservative.
If you are at least barely capable to abstract thinking which makes the most difference between human and primate you would easily find out that every society has liberal and conservative component, with local peculiarities of course.

I don’t believe that you are conservative on either universal and classic American terms because if you indeed are it means that American society has fallen behind the global average in conservatism which is most likely not true.

Your worldview and perception of other cultures is nothing but unsorted mix of leftist propaganda, myths and own misinterpretations based on said propaganda delivered via allegedly hated liberal mass media.

The way you are arguing is pretty much leftist too, aimed to dominate discussion and ridicule opponent at all costs turning things upside down trumping any logic.

Not to mention you are backing leftists in Europe and Muslim extremists in Middle East.

If people like you are conservatives there is no such thing as conservatism anymore.
