Hello, people from "all the rest of the world". I am from Russia. I want to know whether you guys really hate me and consider me an untermensch for being Russian. or not. Before you answer and start demanding obedience from me in exchange for your friendship, I want to tell you about the attitude I faced from the so called Western society. I have military medals left from my Grandpa. One of them is "For courage", he got for the Winter war with Finland. Once I showed the medal to my former roommate, living in the US, an Americal from the upper-middle class of the US, via the skype. That American called it "communist shit", and our friendship crumbled. I am telling you this so you could see, that I have no other history for you, except that "communist shit" you have been taught to hate since childhood in your countries, but I cannot despise the memory of my heroic courageous Grandpa the way that American rich fat ass does. More that that, I am proud of my deceased Grandpa, and am never going to call my origins "shit".
Do you hate me? Well, it seems I will have to live with it
I don't really care about Russia. I was surprised to learn Putin is 5'4" though. Meh.
Do I hate communists absolutely!
Do I hate Russian soldiers who were forced into war? No.
Do I hate Stalin and the communist party and the cowardly NKVD who murdered their own soldiers? Absolutely!
Do I hate modern day Russia, Putin, and its people? No, I infancy admire the Slavs especially Russians and polskis for fighting Islam and LGBT while at the same time restoring Christianity and rejecting communism.
LOVE Natalia Poklonskaya!!!
If that is the medal, why does the tank look like it was designed by some autistic tacticool geek with a cartoon tank fetish?
I love my Russian dawgs.
your gramps was great, don't get pissed at all the world just because one burger acts retarded
I respect that your country allows the statues of Peter the Great, Catherine and Great and others to stand today. Even though they stood for serfdom and total oppression of the normal people.
Although that came to an end nearly the same time we abolished slavery, they still cherish their rich history.
We, on the other hand, are frantically trying to put make up on our historical blemishes in hopes it goes away.
Russia is probably the most akin nation to the United States in numerous ways. I wish we had a more Orthodox church alliance in our political system.
>bullshit larping
Russians have been a part of Sup Forums forever, no kid would call a Russian war medal communist bullshit and yes we hate communism but we respected our long time rivals.
The medal features a pre-WW2 parade tank T-35, absolutely useless in real military activities. In WW2 it served a good background for photos of victorious Wehrmacht soldiers.
Never be afraid to honor & respect your elders & history. Learn from it. Own it. Be proud of it if you feel it was worthy. Change the things you can, don't worry about the rest. Peace to you.
Why would I hate you?
Because your grandpa was a Red?
Nobody's past is perfect.
I mean, I absolutely loathe communism and some of the things the USSR has done, but you're father was just a patriotic citizen. why would I hate that? I respect it, even if I hate who he was working for.
this.
the only burgers who hate russia don't actually know anything about it, they just believe whatever the media tells them to. i wouldn't worry about it, americans who know anything about the rest of the world tend to adore russia and eastern europe in general.
In my opinion Communism was extremely unfair to Russian culture and heritage. Communism REQUIRES a nation to abandon culture so that the people are only drawn to one thing which is the state
And since Communism is a Utopian ideology one of its tenants is that it needs to spread globally so ther are no borders, cultures, nations and everyone lives under one culture - Communism
Anyway Ivan try to connect with Tsarist Russian culture which I find interesting as a half-Russian myself. Communism is a VERY ugly blotch in your history which erased a lot of the vibrant and unique Russian culture

>your grandpa was a Red
Yes, he was. I think it is because in the Czar's Russia his family belonged to the poorest class of peasants. I mean, very poor even among other peasants. So joining the Reds was a chance for him to raise his social status. And he did. I must say he really believed in communism, and worked hard to make the communism closer. Now it seems naive to me. But what would I do in his place, had I lived in his times, I wonder.
I think russians r pretty cool tho
wish i had a russian frien :(
I also admire that the russians are fighting Islam and LGTB.
But still, I don't want the Crimea thing to happen in Finland.
I don't want them looking at us in a creepy and longing way
1 - No, I don't hate Russian (I'm French nevertheless the fact that today I'm in Russia - so the flag ...)
2 - Stalin, SSSR are not related to communism
3 - as of today, I don't know anyone that can accurately describe what communism really is - and to be quite honest, I'm not sure I can define it correctly
No one hates you here.
If you are russian and your surname is NAVALNY yes, we hate you.
this is true, however the amount of burgers who hate russia and still think it's communist, is unreasonably high
I don't hate you. I want to have sex with you. Normal loving man to man sex and kisses.
I am afraid you idealize the Tsarist Russia.
I recommend you to google about the Russian peasant communities of the Tsars' times. You will learn that the Russian village was pretty communist, so to say, even before the real communists took the power. There were big problems with private property, I think the Russian village was doomed to collective farming the communists set, just because of its mentality and rules.
Huge fan of Russia here. Lots of cultural stuff, literature, athletics and so on. Plus vodka. And Putin's a bad ass. Keep doing what you're doing.
>I don't want the Crimea thing to happen in Finland.
Is Sweden trying to annex Finland back? Horrible.
I don't hate you for virtue of being Russian. If I met you personally and we conversed I'm sure we would find some common ground and possibly even be friends.
However, I will say that I do not trust your government and never will. You can be proud of your grandfather's feats and the medals he left you. I don't agree with the cause that he fought for, but I doubt he had much choice in the matter considering the conditions of the country at that time.
What do you think of the mass murder that occurred to your people in 1917 by the Bolshevists? Do you think that Russia would be a better place if it were still Imperial?
Sorry to hear that happened to you. Anyways, since we have a russian posting, do y'all have Longhorn Steakhouse over there?
The libs/kikes and media probably hate Russia at this point in time cause they seem awful huwhite in comparison to anywhere in the West.. Therefore they must be the bad guys
Crimea WHAT thing?
Are you talking about the western GOLPE?
If you are really hot.
>it wasn't real communism
i hate the french so much. never met a french person who didn't shill hard for socialism.
I just want all the white folk to get along. Let's nuke the ooga boogas first, and we can get back to infighting later if we want.
>I do not trust your government and never will.
Me neither, lol. I dare ask: do you trust your own?
Fed? Fuck no.
State Gov? Not terrible, but not the greatest. Haven't completely broken my trust yet.
Local? Local gov is OK. The city manager where I live is doing his best to improve the area and it's showing. Based on his actions I think he's got the community's best interest at heart.
Can you answer the questions I had for you?
You're a slav.
is it because we left Pole and German eviscerate your country as a WW2 appetizer ?
If so, then you should also hate Brittons

Americans don't hate Russians dude, it's divide and conquer bullshit spread by the media.
Hi Russiafriend,
What city/area in Russia would be best to visit as an American for a 1-2 week vacation? Any recommendations?
>Can you answer the questions I had for you?
Ok.
1.I think the Bolsheviks leaders were, so to say, adventurers, deceiving people by promises of ideal society. Their ideology looks to me as a new religion in which the orthodox ikons were changed to the communist chiefs' portraits. As to what you call a "mass murder of 1917", I must say I hate commie-style social reforms which demand eliminating phisically some classes. It happened once in France too, the French revolution, you know. But I think it was a mass murder for upper classes, not for the poor. The poor supported the communists, because they hated the rich and liked it when a former landlord was killed.
2. I think Russia could be democratic if the February revolution of 1917 developed without the Bolshevik overturn of October, 1917.
We don't despise Gramps.
We despise communism. Among other things.
It's legit.

And Mao's cultural revolution was the worst of them all.
I myself like Saint-Petersburg. It is very friendly to foreigners. It is also a prostitute city, I have to admit. Many girls from other cities of Russia go to Saint-Petersburg to work as prostitutes.
All my hate is reserved for Jews, just as it should be.
I hold an overall positive opinion of Russia and it's people. I really cannot recall meeting anyone that truly did not like Russia or it's people. I think most probably don't really have a formed opinion.

Well said comrade. The western world will fall and the east will rise again. All slavs are welcome in the future Eurasian empire, non-slav whities are NOT WELCOME and will be shot on sight!
I don't think about you at all
hey man that's some pretty cool communist shut.
it's part of your history keep it and show it off.
