as Russia becomes, bit-by-bit, more technology-backwards
————-
Well, going through DOD files, alerts and memos, I see the west alarmed at Russia’s high tech weapons, many of which the west has no defense from.
Having worked in Moscow for a few years, I can say I have seen more “ advanced technology “ items and systems in their society than the US.
The west seems to have no idea or concept on how quickly Russia advanced since 1991. Many here still think they have bread lines, fact is,
their food is amazingly cheap, ( prices compare to what we had in the early 2010 years) and guess what - No empty shelves or shortages.
Shhh no one wants to hear that there are arbitrarily bright geniuses in Russia. Didn’t we just cancel them all anyway?
“No empty shelves or shortages.”
Serious question...do you currently live in Russia. Because some independent film showed huge lines at markets and super lines waiting for sugar.
