OK, I am a Baby Boomer. Grew up in the 1950s, Watched “I Led three Lives” on TV—I was told over and over again in every way that all evil in the world was caused by Soviet Russia and their mad leaders. I was a teenager before I learned that it didn’t always snow in Russia. I learned that much of what I was taught was pure propaganda—Your government was not telling the truth. Some of the people on FR are still stuck in that Cartoon Soviet world—a world that is now gone if it ever existed at all. Are Russian tough customers, yes. They learned the hard way facing Mongols, Pols, Turks etc... They distrust the west and I can see why. Look twice before your see people talking war with Russia—they could be lies?
Very true, very true….
