Something something should not have supported the genocide and all. It’s costing us

What about it? Two pieces of classic propaganda

It did that and it did the opposite. Meaning it was promoting local cultures many times in it’s recent history. Including right now. No other major country in the world is doing that. That all to say that Russia is not as imperialistic as it’s perceived. Rather the opposite. Especially as compared to … Well anything else

Lol yeah. Just look at the results. Everybody still speaks their languages even small ethnicities inside Russia free to teach their languages in school. Now contrast that to native Americans and their languages.

I totally would surrender. Definitely wouldn’t fight. Russians are not Israeli or Americans. They actually include people into their country instead of genociding/exploiting them for one resource or another.

I don’t get it. Are Ukrainiens still fighting? Why? What is Russia going to do? Give them money like they gave it to Chechens after the war? Just stop this stupid dying and surrender already. Save some of my money.

I hope that this will cause Russia and aligned countries to switch and invest into one of BSD variants. Probably won’t happen, but there is hope.

Yeah I lived in Boston and never had problem with public transit, same in Europe. I guess left cost IS different and not in a good way.

How does this knowledge help me take the train safely?

I don’t know where you live, but in PDX it’s a hit or miss. If you go during rush hours on a work day in the suburbs, then you are mostly fine. Otherwise… You have high chances of being harassed by homeless people, spat on, threatened, leered at, smelling something awful. So yeah, not divorced of reality.
