    So they’re angry that other people have it better than them and the solution is to make life terrible for all those people rather than demand something good of your own government?

    I don’t think Russian’s a human. How on Earth do they think like that, if other people have it better than you, clearly the problem is with your country. Who comes to the conclusion that the problem is the other country.

    Anyway imagine lusting after ikea furniture. Someone should tell them that we think it’s all crap. That will really drive them.

      While this person’s mindset here is reprehensible; try to avoid making sweeping generalizations based off a few encounters. It’s destructive and can be quite hurtful.

      So close. I’ve been wondering about ways we can push them over the line of realization. 500,000 dead hasn’t done it. A few days ago they lost 65 artillery pieces in a single day. Sure there’s lots of soviet production in mothballs but this shit has been going on for two years. How much longer can they go on before the average person realizes - oh shit - we’re gonna lose this badly - ?

    Its called getting money from big daddy EU

    Edit: apperently some people missunderstood my comment. Im in no way saying that all their achievements are just eu. All Im saying that especially public infrastructure in poland is strongly substituted by eu. In a lot of cities you can’t get on a tram without seeing the big eu logo. And thats not a bad thing. Thats exactly what the eu is for. To help each other out.

    IKEA makes loans for purchasing their uncomfortable furniture? Their sofas should be reviewed for human rights violations. They’re not aspirational.

    Funny thing about how clean Russia is. Moscow has a spotless city center, and anywhere important is super clean. But as soon as you step outside the usual areas, it’s suddenly back to failed-state chique, with random crap just dumped outside of direct view and slowly spilling over.
