Maybe things are different there, but I once had occasion to flush a Soviet toilet. It went off like a rocket powered Martin Baker ejection seat. Something like 600 gallons of water blew through it in about 3 seconds.
It actually kinda scared me for a second. It felt like it might suck me right in.
Wish they sold those here instead of these low flow fixtures.

This is quite common in Russia where there are septic tanks. Personally, I prefer to take the risk and flush it, rather than just putting it in the wastebasket near by.

Re your post 3, that was the practice when I visited Russia in 1991 and 1993. By now you’d think that they would improved things. Guess not.

Well, I seem to remember that when Atlanta hosted the Olympics, visitors had to use port-a-potties. About the same thing.
