It is also true that if you’re an average person, Moscow is awful. The average Muscovite is most likely to live in some grim outlying apartment complex, many of which were built during the Soviet era. That’s if they’re lucky. Many Russians live in Novosibirsk, Ekaterinburg, Nizhny Novgorod, Omsk, and Ufa. Russia’s per capita yearly GDP is around $13,000. In the United States, it is around $83,000. It’s around $46,000 in Mississippi, our poorest state. Most Russians are living in what most Americans would consider poverty. Not everything is about money, of course. Religious commitment? Around 50-65 percent of Americans claimed religion was important to them (depending on the poll). In Russia, it’s at 16-34 percent. The Russian divorce rate is at 74 percent, the highest in the world. But that doesn’t change the fact that 20 percent of Russian households don’t have indoor plumbing. Or that a third of Russian hospitals don’t have running water.

These facts will be proclaimed "deep state propaganda" I'm sure soon.

What exactly do you think you have accomplished here? Do you not understand that your enemy is literally within your country? And you want to take someone like Tucker Carlson and demonize him for making a comment about the fact that American cities are Third World, shit, holes, and that it was all done, deliberately, and that the Grandmarch to our destruction continues. You’re just smart enough to understand that Putin is not a Freedom loving, democratically, elected leader. Boy oh boy are you not the smartest man in the room? What the hell does Putin have to do with the fact that your country is being destroyed every single day from within? What does Putin have to do with anything? You’re either completely disengaged from what happens in your country or you are a tool for the establishment. Which is it?

Now I was listening to a podcast with

__________ . Tucker doesnt understand one
blessed thing about Russia esp regsrding cultural mores.

Houses / apts may be dim & dungey because perhaps Tucker is comparing things in his own mind whats up to standard.

This is what he fails to see- Putin is all about mouthing yes to the “ globaloney, WEF, Alphabet groups, etc.,
and in actuality the bedrock of Russian
culture is Eastern Orthodoxy.

Putin doesnt put up nor tolerate 57 degrees of gender identity. those kind of things arent even discussed and bypassed.

You wont see Putin eating out of the WEF hand either. He is very much against this globaloney because he understands that to accept it would be the death of russion culture and religion.

My comment here is made not in support of him and whater else he does......

So what? Russia has always been a craphole, and we’re rapidly heading that way. Go to East Cleveland, or Cairo, or Keokuk, and there are hundreds of other cities and towns failing all across the USA. We need to take care of ourselves before we go saving foreigners. We can’t afford to be rescuing the whole world anymore.
