Hey guys

Hey guys.
Just wanted to apologize about the whole Crimea thing.
No hard feelings, yeah?
Georgia wasn't my fault though.

water under the bridge

Most of the stormfags here probably love you for retarded military history/strenght/power reasons, but I would say that I respect that you were able to help stabilize Russia after the crazy 90s.

You're a very polarizing character, and most non-Russians dislike you, but I fear that if something did happen to you, or if you were assassinated, Russia would fall apart.

So I applaud you for that. For holding a country together and at least providing stability for the 120 million odd people in your country.

Beyond that, I wish you were able to do something about the corruption in your country. It's incredibly unreal. Holds a lot of people back. Sergey Brin could have started google in Russia instead of having to immigrate to US--just letting you know.

stop flooding Russia with central asian t*rkic scum and all will be forgiven.

Please crack down on all the online criminals in your country.

Maybe will consider lifting your sanctions then faggot.

Aw cheers, senpai. I can deduce you're a vodkabro (or at least nearby) from the fact that you know just how bad of a situation Russia was in by the end of 90's/start of 00s.

Do you believe the rumors of Trump being a tad pro-Russian? Would you like him to be?

what is a vodka bro?

Also, I'm really interested in russian history. It's the biggest country in the world, and probably more of an adversary to the US than China is.

No offense towards any chinese here, but, they're not really good at international conflict/spying/etc. Russians are just pros at it.

I'd like to visit, but, I heard no one speaks English there, and getting a visa there is hard as an American (Unless you've got good connection).

I mean, apart from all the anti-russia and anti-slav, and anti-commie, and russophobia of the last, i dunno, 70 years, I do feel for the average Russian.

I feel like their average politician is a pederast.

I dont believe Trump is pro-Russian, I think he was benefited directly or indirectly from the actions of Russians. I am by no means a believer that he is A LITERAL RUSSIAN AGENT!!!

Never blamed you for Georgia

Are you really promoting a non-degenerate, Christian, ethno-state or is it all KGB smoke and mirrors?

Well, English (sometimes German) is taught in every school as part of mandatory program. They even start it at 1st grade nowadays. After asking around a bunch you can expect at least someone to be able to understand you somewhat. Honestly that's same for anywhere, being the de-facto international language has it's perks.

As for visas, well, I'm unfamiliar. I always imagined we take burgers by the boat load.
An overly complicated, expensive and exclusive immigration policy is something for a first world land of opportunity like the US. The latest years of tension might have changed that.

Lastly, good honest people don't become politicians. And if they do, they stop being one or the other soon enough.

Enforcing something like that isn't likely on ex-USSR territory. Too many ethnicities, peoples, cultures and languages.
And with some new age degeneracy slowly becoming the norm, you can't really help but adapt.
But promoting, yes.

So you seem smarter than the average pol-tard.

Why do you stay in Russia? What keeps you there?

I mean, apart from all the poor russia memes, are there any economic benefits to living there, apart from the government regulating everything you do? I mean, also, I take it ther's a lot of open space, so if you can save some money, you can go get a nice little hut in the Siberian wilderness and live out the rest of your days in peace and with good books. And I guess hookers are probably cheaper there than in like the bay area.

>its an undergrad thinks his effortpost will make him seem intellectual on a cartesian sea floor mapping forum
Embarrassing dude. Just stop. You are far below the zeitgeist here.

Well, at first I thought the grass is so green on the Western side that it hurts the eye.

Migrating is a painful process. Quite a lot of money is involved, and getting a Green card is no easy task. I would also like to finally finish my degree.

Economic benefits I can think of immediately is free* healthcare and free* education. I've heard horror storries of being tens of thousands of dollars in debt just for getting a degree or having a hospital save your life. And it all seems so surreal to me.
There are also paid alternatives to both available (and kept to certain standarts by the G-ment).

I've passed a state exam and entered a state University for free. I paid some measly pittance for living in a dorm, and was given study books from the library.
I've had 4 free surgeries and only had to buy a catheter once and a surgical thread once. I've stayed hospitalized for weeks, and was provided bedding, 3 meals a day, antibiotics and complementary painkillers for the duration of the stay.
These things seem to surprise burgers to no end, and that.. honestly scares me a little. I'd hate to have to pay $100k for my wife giving birth at a hospital. I'd hate to have my kids work half their life to pay off the degree.

Nowadays, I'm thinking that maybe Russia isn't so bad after all.

There's no effort on my part. I like politics and have watched some videos about Russia, and I like to write.

Since you obviously read it, whose the bigger fag?

I don't know much about Norway, except that its got only a few million people living in it. It's relatively peaceful, and has a pretty high PhD capital..

If you're cooler than I am, then don't respond or engage with me on this thread. Just go away.

Yeah...I owe $92K in student loans.

But hey, I mean, the good thing about debt here is that it's not like they'll throw you in jail for it.

There's people that are millions in debt. But what happens is they just go bankrupt, and then in 7 years, they can start borrowing money again.

I agree wtih you on the helathcare. I don't have insurance cause it's too fucking expensive. I got my dental work done in Costa RIca cuase it was like way cheaper. I really focus on not getting hurt/injured/sick cause I have no insurance.

But yeah I'm jealous about the free tuition and the free healthcare (asterisks, I noted).

the fuck is going on in this thread

cykat blyat, or how you say it

the grass is always greener. russia isnt half bad.

Anyways, I have to go fap to russian barely legal porn before bed. Good luck with your studies user.

(*free as in paid for by taxes, not literally free, you gotta pay salaries to teachers and doctors, you gotta build and upkeep schools and hospitals, you gotta produce and deliver books, medicine, furniture, obviously no one magically zaps these things into existence)

cхopoнил

Crimea is way better off in Putin's hands than in the corrupt, hollow soul of Soros. Ukraine killed itself when it didn't arrest the traitors who launched the Soros Spring.

That watch is /fa/af

You two really need to nuke each other, give us some rest.

>Crimea

why would you apologize for taking something that is rightfully yours?

I don't blame you for either of those things Senpai...

Crimea, Shitmea. Smoleńsk kurwa.

Polandball, you truly are my worst ally.
