(((Moscow Times)))

As you know Russia has a very oppressive regime that cracks down on all press.

So today I will look into Moscow Times, a new issue of which I took in Starbucks situated in a 5 minutes' walk from Kremlin. The paper specializes on collecting all shit about Russia in one place and publishing it on a weekly basis.

I hope you can get some good lulz with me.

So let's start with the cover. The cover should always be dark and grim and mention something abouth the oppressive nature of the Russian state that allows this media to be distributed freely across Russia.

First 10 pages of the edition are always dedicated to some Russia bashing. Frankly speaking, I don't get who reads it. Expats live and work in Moscow can see everyhing for themselves. Tourists camr to Russia because they wanted to. Businessmen on trips don't usually have time for this shit.

Anyway, On the second page it's time to do some Trump and Putin bashing and discuss their opportunistic post-truth policies.

I wonder how badly re/rfl are kvetching after Trump's election?
Probably as bad as every other liberal media in your country.
Speaking of liberals, I bet the handful of them you have are feeling downright suicidal over this.

Second page, bottom - an article by some Russian libcuck on how Russia is destroying the global order. Obviously the guy works in moscow, enjoys a high sallary and all the benefits that come with it and the oppressive regime is not doing anything about him.

Why is it in English

they are literally shaking, yeah

Writing opinion columns on how Americans elected literally a hitler oy vey.

I don't know. lul.
I'm sure they would be better off if they did a serious English-speking media for tourists in Moscow, because there is basically none. But they prefer to publish some shit about politics. Really makes me think.

Now. since every free-minded person knows that it was Russian hackers who hacked Hillary Clinton's victory, why not make a story on how secret services spy on foreigners and connect the two. Obviously all secret services across the globe do it, but writing a story about it and placing the newspaper in popular tourist spots is double the fun when Russia-bashing.

Oh, I forgot - of course you should also tie in Trump with the story because he is literally Hitler.

>called The Moscow Times
>published in Russia
>Russian newspaper
>only published in English
>bashes Russia (Russian equivalent of The Washington Post)

literally who reads this. does everyone in Moscow speak english?

No idea
I never even heard about this one before

Is this a westaboo rag?

I think this might be one of the most important pages of the whole newspaper.

Well, did you call them?

Well, I'm a married man now.
Bu these are usually elite hookers demanding up to a thousand dollars per night, so I wouldn't anyway. You can find girls that look only slightly worse for around 100$ in Moscow brothels.

Wow, they really are on the same page

Anyway, on to some more (((repressions))). So a guy who works for a Gazprom-owned media has been saying that Russia betrayed their "brothers" in Ukraine for the last three years now, that we should leave Donbass and give Crimea back.

He was travelling to Ukraine to shill for pro-Obama administration. He was saying that Russians are literally hitlers. All while working on a state-owned radio.

Well, recently, some people in the writer's union got so fed up with his shit that they expelled him.

An unimportant story, really, but hey, he is one of the Moscow's (((minorities))), so the story is naturally in Moscow times enjoying a whole printed page.

Elena today we are going to have your favorite cuisine, POTATO!

which bogdanoff is that

Why is this paper written in English instead of Russian?

the bogdanoff language appears as whatever language the reader is most comfortable with

Nice

Some shilling against Russian orthodox church which is not that good frankly speaking, but this (((newspaper))) publishes some articles against it every issue, so no bias, lads.

Because it's totally super legit.

> Porn ads.
This is how you know a newspaper is srs bsns.

No to mention fake news - the headline sttes that the church has already been given to the church while it is only discussed - and has been discussed since last year.

They need to make money somehow.

Some places, that I, an outgoing muscovite, never heard of. If you want to mingle with some other dickhead tourists, loose your wallet to Oksana or enjoy "authentic Irish ale", (you) are welcome.

According to kikepedia

>"distributed free of charge at places frequented by English-speaking tourist
s and expatriates

>such as hotels, cafés, embassies, and airlines and is also available by subscription, but is not available at newsstands.

>The newspaper is popular among foreign citizens residing in Moscow and English-speaking Russians.

Looks could be some FSB / CIA funded- operation to advertise" the best" hookers "in the world" with camcorders to high-profile foreign guys

>Kitay-Gorod
Chinatown?

>Club macho
And here I thought I was reading an enligthened liberal paper...

Honestly, the first good material I've seen from them for a while - a tourist route round the new business district.

Well, it is a meme.
Kitay is an ancient word of unknown origin and vague sence, but most historians think it means a wooden wall.
So basically it means "a town behind a wooden wall". It is one of central Moscow's districts.

Kitay also stands for China in Russian.

So some people call this district "china town" for lulz.

Nobody reads it. That's why it still exists.

First page of the material on the skyscrapers.

I heard a Putin speech about the Kompromat so the subtitles appeared to have him after saying prostitution is a social degeneracy issue that Russian prostitutes are the best.. was this a joke subtitles?

how is the demographic situqtion in russia? Are you dying out or having babies? Also how many actual russians are there in russia?

don't know really

there is a slight population growth, but it is very small, almost close to zero, anyway all American projections that Russia will die out by 2050 is bullshit, we will just age and import more immigrants like the rest of you

also there is a big fertility drop projected for the next decade

regions with the best fertility are mostly muzzie regions, but their fertility rates are also falling because of rapid urbanization that was hindered in soviet times

>Also how many actual russians are there in russia?

About 82% if you talk about ethnic Russians, according to cencus. The rest are minorities, which makes Russia a polyethnic state. But our cuck president keeps saying that Russia is a multionational country and that all nations are equally important.

this is it.

Ok, some more pages for your entertainment and I'll round up.

When finally dedicating a page to art, of course it has to be some multi-kulti bullshit, because, obviously, you won't want to enjoy Russian art if you came to Russia, would you? In this case, Georgian art (Georgia was trying to be USA's little bitch that caused a war in 2008 if you forgot).

Oh yeah, he says it ironically.

Says "Russian girls with low moral standards are the best in the world", than goes on to say how bad prostitution is.

лoл, пынькa плaкaл, нo пpoдoлжaл пepeвoдить

Some more spy stories including Chinese spy kettles.

And why not finish with some more hints about Trump?

Now, you might be interested in who publishes this beauty.

Here is one of them, according to Twitter profile he publishes it not even living in Russia. Really makes me think.

Finally, I lately got a new edition of the Monocle journal with a 4-page butthurt piece on Trump. Hope you'll enjoy it.

Sounds Judaic

...

...

That's all folks, I hope you enjoyed this little adventure into the world of Moscow 's liberal press. Feel free to ask me questions.

immigrants will never become russian. thats the same as saying someone born in a stall is a horse

you need more slavs not others

Well, we have Russians migrating from Baltics, Kazakhstan, Belarus, Moldova and the Ukraine. I read an article yesterday that said that only last year 30 000 ethnic Russians migrated from Kazakhstan to Kaliningrad region.

that decreases your diaspora not good

With our cuck authorities it is really better that these families come back to Russia than integrte into national states post-soviet countries are trying to build. Not much sense in returning any clay if it has no loyal Russian population.

alright, one more bump and I gonna go

I used to read the St Petersburg Times when I was there to look for things like current and upcoming events (shows, festivals, etc) but I had to give it up, the shilling was just too much. Even as a student studying on a semester who barely understood Russian enough to know the culture or the political problems I could tell how wildly everything was exaggerated.

Yeah, there is a big proble with English-speaking media in Russia. It is either Moscow times tier, or some magazines by 50 year old expats for 50 year old expats. Their magazines look like they were produced in the 90s even in terms of design. I've been thinking of producing some media in English for Moscow visitors for some years now.
