Why is Russia such a backwater shithole?
>highest rate of HIV in Europe
>one of the highest suicide rates
>one of the worst economies in Europe
>infrastructure is in the garbage
You'd think with it's size, amount of natural resources and industrial capacity it'd be a superpower but it's not.
Why is Russia such a backwater shithole?
Yeah but americans are fat and retarded
Also very gay
Being a fat retard >> having aids and no food
I'd rather live in a country with 1% HIV than in a country with 40% obesity
Fat is the Future.
If you find fatties unattractive you better learn how to love them.

This is a list of notable sandwiches. A sandwich is a dish consisting of two or more slices of bread with one or more fillings between them,[1][2][3] or one slice in the case of an open sandwich. Sandwiches are a common type of lunch food often eaten as part of a packed lunch. There are many types of sandwiches, made from a diverse variety of ingredients. The sandwich is the namesake of John Montagu, 4th Earl of Sandwich, a British statesman.
Major types of sandwich include:
Two slices of bread with other ingredients between
Two halves of a baguette with other ingredients between
Pocket sandwich
Open-faced sandwich
Sandwich cookies and ice cream sandwiches are generally not considered sandwiches in the sense of a bread-containing food item, but are named by analogy.

Is it really this thread again?
the people are weak willed
how else are they such ready fodder for dictators and scam artists?
Still better than Hillary.
stop the aboutism ivan, and ask yourself what YOU need to do to stop being a shithole.
Ultrasonic missile you have nothing to stop.
Russians are a proud people, they love their country. If they had the choice between a real democracy, with all its infighting, scandals and lack of competency, and a dictator who gives them feelings of greatness, they would always choose the dictator.
so the belarussians are russians 2.0? they have reached perfection in that sense.
Not him but i think we just have to let it crash and burn so the people can build something better on the ruins
Belorussians are ethnically Russians.
I don't think that Lukashenko gives the Belarusians feelings of greatness. Or have you heard of recent Belarusian landgrabs or military dickwaving? Not to say that he's all bad though, Belarus is doing much better than Ukraine, and according to some sources even better than Russia (in terms of living standards), even though these two other countries are supposedly "democracies".
Bazarov plz
that's not saying much, latvians on the whole have better incomes and living standards than their average russian counterpart
Retard. Let's be honest russia is at one of the highest standards of living in all its history.
Latvia is still a boring small shithole. I'd rather live in Saint Peterburg than disgusting Riga
Yes all slavs are some kind of Russians but Belarussians are true backwater Russians who are just more laid back. Since they don't care about muh role in history and muh past grandeur. So they can just relax and dig potatoes and enjoy being poor. While Russians are constantly butthurt about their role in the world. Instead of planting potatoes too.
Russians are based, not the gay ones though.
St. Petersburg would be better than just about anything in that region outside Finland. The closest thing to an actual city for Russia no doubt.
are you a moldovan in italy? do terroni see you as one of their own?
St. Petersburg FL is still better though.
well of course, you have some of the best beaches in the hemisphere in west florida
thank you based kremlinbot
What happened to the Upper Volta with nukes?
Only in climate and wealth.
I'm half Croat
>be a socialist country
>superpower
>change to capitalism
>shithole
really made me think
Half of these statistics are outdated and wrong, such as Russias murder rate, and male life expectancy. It is absolutely retarded to think that these two countries are comparable anyways. The shittiest major cities in Russia like Norilsk, Chelyabinsk, Omsk, are nicer than the best cities in Nigeria. A majority of the roads in Lagos are paved with dirt. Nigeria is absolutely third world and not comparable to Russia in terms of living, I cant believe this is even an argument, but I would expect it from someone from the butthurt belt.
A better hockey team, too
ouch
>with it's size
That's literally the reason why so much of it is a backwater shithole
Me too.
a super power where you're only worth what you can give the state, and heaven help you if you have independence of thought
whenever americans talk about socialism (specifically the USSR) it's like listening to a deranged cult member.
all those decades of cold war indoctrination surely worked.
sure thing buddy
I mean, can you explain your claim with a bit more depth?
it keeps me awake at night too
don't fall for the bait. this is a well known argie retard who always larps as a commie
larp? I'm an actual socialist, and how is it bait? are you this afraid of actual conversations?
They have zero arguments against socialism other than "muh venezuela", "starvation", and "muh gulags".
Here's an argument: it has collapsed.
"Socialism" is as much a buzzword as "Fascism" in America. No one knows what either term means but their party has deemed it as bad so they think it's bad.
stop making these grand meaningless statements all the itme
fascism and socialism are not well liked because they are all at their heart the state mandating the actions of the public, we aren't a monolithic people, and we do know what is going on, thank you
it was disolved more than it collapsed, it would be comparable to any capitalist country defaulting, which has happened many many times, incluiding mine.
>socialism is when the state does stuff
see, he was right, you don't know what it means.
ah, you are just an asshole after all
carry on, I want nothing to do with you
>avoiding a conversation this bad
I could explain but sure, run away.
>fascism and socialism are not well liked because they are all at their heart the state mandating the actions of the public
This is the exact reason I said what I said, because of people like you.
No one knows what Fascism or Socialism are. The right calls Bernie Sanders a fascistic communist and the left calls Donald Trump a racist fascist neo-nazi. None of what they says holds any merit.
>implying that the russian monk won't save russia
you can keep all your elizabeth warrens that want to de facto nationalize our industries thanks
Fascism is a purposefully nebulous term, Socialism isn't.
fascism is born from socialism, mussolini himself began his career among the socialists on the fringe of the italian political spectrum
My pee pee is very much communistic. Would you like to suck on it?
Please, stop blaming my country. It's hard to live there already, don't make me feel more bad. Thank you.
why did they advocate and defend private property rights then?
Russia is a global joke. Even Brasil mocks Rússia.
Donald Trump was raised as a Democrat, does that mean he's a Democrat now?
Of course not, your logic is fucking retarded. Read his autobiography, the reason he left the socialists was because he had a revelation and realized the evils of socialism. He became a fascist to directly oppose the socialists.
He as in Mussolini, forgot the transition.
>Elizabeth Warren wants to nationalize industry
Elizabeth Warren wants to globalize our industry. Not that you'd know the difference, everything you've said thus far shows how stupid you are.
nu uh, you're a stupid head ! >:(
I love Russia. It has everything
>no argument
Poetry
he left the socialist cause because he saw a greater future for his political career in supporing irredentist pursuits achieved through Italy's entry into the first world war
I wish I lived in Russia. They have a rich history, beautiful language, and an actual culture.
I think I've told you people this a thousand times by now, you get the argument you give
Not really. They're half as rich as canada
Money isnt everything. I would kill myself if I ever had to live in a depressive shithole such as Norway, regardless of high salaries.
>culture
Russian people are pretty much the same as everywhere else, culture wise. They all eat McDonalds and KFC is at every mall.
Because you let Stalin do a rush job.
A country is only as good as its peasantry.
Norway has mountain's. You're thinking my country.
in any case neither of your counties I would associate with depressing landscapes, or shitholes
Norway is beautiful. Shut up.
yes, it is, do you think I said it was? I didn't
I suggest you read my post again, it should have been clear I'm not the guy you were first replying to
Stalin,,,,
Putin,,,,
Commynyzm,,,,
You antalya?
Tigers, too.
Sorry. I misread
My gf is Russian and she's the cutest and sweetest person ever. I feel offended by this thread and feel the need to stand with my Russian brothers.
Because Russia adopted capitalism. Thank you, Gobrachev, for giving Russian women the opportunity to become prostitutes or homeless.
>unironically defending socialism
someone's getting an helicopter ride
Commies killed most of capable people. Yes, I know it sounds too pathetic, but that's what happened. Back in the beginning of the XXth century Russia was like 0.5% upper class, 3.5% middle class, 3% more or less well-off farmers, 8% working class, 85% illiterate and poor underclass who still lived in the XVth century mentally (and who were barely different from Australian Aborigines in terms of IQ and impulse control). Basically Bolsheviks killed almost everyone except for the last two groups. Imagine if Chavs rose up and killed all middle class and upper class people in the UK, that's pretty much what happened. They wouldn't make it on their own, but they were assisted by very high energy, smart, educated, vindictive, ruthless and power-hungry Jewish revolutionaries who acted as managers and organizers and also they used the right moment - when the state collapsed after Tsar's abdication in March 1917 and chaos that followed.
Bolshevik idea was to use those underclass types as cannon fodder in order to conquer Poland and Germany and then conquer the whole world (using Germany's engineering, technical and military potential). They failed to do so, so instead they decided to build "socialism in one country", in which Bolshevik leaders would be on the top (those Jewish commissars mostly) and working class in the middle.
Another thing I think is that Russians generally lack "manager" personality types (ISTJs and ESTJs) that dominate the West. Basically people are either too passive, depressed and helpless OR too aggressive, impulsive and violent. Imagine 70% of the country are passive, feminine and melancholic Southeast Asians/Eastern Finns, and 30% are violent and antisocial Blacks/Australian Aborigines, that's basically what it is.
if you have an argument please state it.
Communism, communists, literally subhumans
