“””Russians are some of the most nationalist people on earth. As seen in WW2, they will endure great hardship “for the Motherland”.”””
People keep saying that as though they had a choice under the dictatorship of the bloodiest mass murderer in white history, who was murdering 10s of millions of them before the war and who spent the first years of the war alongside Hitler, and who when they did fight died by the millions and millions under leadership that was indifferent to their deaths.
People keep repeating things they hear from influeners when in reality they haven’t the faintest clue about the truth. It’s likeRussians seeing the US in movies/TV and thinking they know it. In my experience and travels I find Russians far more materialistic than average Americans. They are not shy about telling you what they want from you. Plastic surgery is even more popular in Moscow than it is in NYC or LA....
