How do Russians view there country compared to other countries

Russians — even the most liberal-minded of them, who oppose Putin’s regime — think that Russia is a great country, with great and deep culture, which is superior to others.

They are proud of Russia, the largest country on Earth.

At the same time, all Russians complain of corrupt officials, bribery, nepotism, lawlessness, inefficiency. But Russia is still great, regardless!

Nothing unusual here. Every person thinks their own country is great.
Except American liberals, of course.

Slavs are generally like this.

Poles live to complain about things in their country, but if an outsider criticizes it, they will jump on them.

In other words, a country more or less like every other country. Certainly, big countries have a lot of pride, even if they aren't well or honestly governed. India, Brazil, Indonesia, China, Canada, the US ...

A more important issue for Americans is how Americans see their fellow citizens who have embraced Satanism, child murder, child grooming & child mutilation. I don’t care about Russians or Russia.

Perhaps the best documentary ever made, is HBO’s Chernobyl. It’s absolutely amazing, and imho likely the closest to the truth of what absolutely happened.

Dislike the Russian government as much as you want; but I would put many American patriots against a single Russian patriot. When the chips were down, the Russians sacrificed themselves, knowing the horrors of what was happening.

I doubt you could find many in the current generation of Americans that could match that courage, which is a pity. And I am not Russian.

Flight 93 was one example of it from Americans.

It reads exactly as if some liberal could write about the United States.
You can even put exactly the same visuals to support it.
