They don't waste time masturbating to cartoons made for little girls.

Because they don't outsource everything to poo-in-the-loo pajeets

And their education system is actually decent

The russian people aren't stupid, but Russia itself is fucking horrible.

They say that from struggle emerge geniuses or something.

That being said the vast majority live in poverty, hang themselves by age 40, drink themselves to death or get into fights after getting drunk and die.

Isn't the statistic that something like 1/5th of Russians end up in Prison at some point during their lives?

this

life sucks so much the only thing they have to do there for fun is read about numbers between eating cabbage and chugging vodka

>1/5th of Russians end up in Prison at some point during their lives?
no, they have less people in prison(in %) than USA

Socialism actually valued smart(in that area) people, had really great education system, a lot of people were engeneers , only problem was(actually root problem of communism) that you could work in coal mine,sweep streets or have 3 diplomas, you would be in a same paygrade.

I grew up in lite-commie country(now we are turbo democratic-capitalistic society)
and things were soo much better, these last generation of kids(last 10-20 years) are so fucking stupid, im honestly afraid that we will regress hugely on global level.

>Why are Russians so good at engineering and mathematics?
They arent

less at any given time, but more people are incarcerated AT SOME POINT percentage wise.

the Soviets are secret and were technology-based way ahead of us in the 80s

Russian here.

They do, especially those in engineering and mathematics, especially younger than 35

>their education system is actually decent
Only in a few elite schools/colleges, everything below top-10 is shit. I say "elite", but anyone with half a brain can study there for free.

It's not boredom, but motivation. When you grow up in Russia, you understand that if you are not good enough, you will end up like
>vast majority live in poverty, hang themselves by age 40, drink themselves to death or get into fights after getting drunk and die

in the dark ages all the russions had to be engineers to engineer defenses to protect themselves from all the viking attacks

>all these butthurt americans ITT
As a European it's always funny to watch you talking about a continent you have no clue about.

The majority aren't a poor drunkasses, just take a look at the bigger cities like Moscow and St Petersburg

Were not Russians descended from Vikings?

They're not fat, lazy americans.

Russian here as well. In my experience all the guys who are good at math or engineering are just born with it and are really excentric for some reason. They aren't motivated or passionate to learning, the opposite. The guy in my school who was studying university program at 8th grade got kicked for fistfighting history teacher (women) while being drunk.

kinda. they were slavs at first but the vikings used to constantly come over there and rape everyone

>The guy in my school who was studying university program at 8th grade got kicked for fistfighting history teacher (women) while being drunk.

I love Russia.

>The majority aren't a poor drunkasses, just take a look at the bigger cities like Moscow and St Petersburg

Actually they are when literally only the richest and most prosperous cities have a decent quality of life when everything else is literally unfinished cities from the Commie days or just villages.

Look at some god damn statistics of Russia man. It's 3rd world-country tier.

Their suicide, murder, drug usage, abortion, etc rates are THROUGH THE FUCKING ROOF. It's actually ridiculous how high some of them are.

>I say "elite"

>>>/un/, bydlo.

Do you even know how people are spread out over the country?

Which country?

Pole here. When I read my parents' old textbooks I'm always shocked that there was a time in our history when shools actually didn't treat teenagers like retards.

They aren't generally that intelligent. They are just a big population so obviously they will have more outliers both stupid and smart.

Why? Prove it.

>guy in my school who was studying university program at 8th grade got kicked for fistfighting history teacher (women) while being drunk.

What reason is there to believe they're any better at engineering and mathematics than Americans and western Europe?

When outside of SPB and Moscow everything is around sub Saharan Africa tier you have a bit of a problem.

Look up Opiate usage and teen suicide in Russia.

Protip it's 2nd behind Afghan in opiate usage and teen suicides are 3x world average

>They aren't generally that intelligent.
>They are just a big population so obviously they will have more outliers both stupid and smart.

>Population of Russia = 143+ million.
>Population of USA = 318+ million.

>Ergo, Americans are dumb because there are more of them.

Russia is melancholic, eccentric genius tier.

are russian girls hot in general?

>voting for PiSS

It's the future you chose.

Like they say how China has more honor students than the US has students.

Though they disregard that they will have more alzheimers patients than the entire world!

This is bullshit and here's why
In the US if you're stupid enough to cuck your life by majoring in a pure science, the only way to stay employed is to publish.
Most of the scientific papers in the US (Especially by biologists) are complete bullshit

>China has more honor students than the US has students.
They're all autistic robots though, and only excel in areas like math or chemistry; where repetition is key.
You will never see the chinks writing a great novel or something because they are just robots

They get beaten to death in the snow by their alcoholic parents if they don't succeed

>at engineering
Because they constantly have to fix shit Communist era technology, and learn technical adaptability because they have no money, nor a culture of waste, to be constantly replacing shit with new shit.
>at mathematics
Because Russian maths books are masochistic shit. This is a tricky question because part of the reason is also that mathematicians and the general system hand down the masochistic math standards from generation to generation.
Whereas in USA and some Western nations, education (tests and books) are increasingly being dictated and created by corporations and private businesses connected to them, instead of actual teachers and people with a hardon for education standards.
Privatization of education is interestingly worse than having a government and one official system/party regulate it.

He's right you know.
journals.plos.org/plosmedicine/article?id=10.1371/journal.pmed.0020124

POlshoi would be better? Kukiz is the best option right now...
Anyway, Polish education system is horrible now.

USA #1 clappers
USA USA USA!

because they can't afford a calculator and there's literally nothing else to do in russia than sitting on a fucking concrete floor while pootin assfuck your dad and you're stuck with calculus. fuck.

Still number 1.
#TheClappening #FifteenDollars #BLM #NotEveryOne

They didnt breed with stupid fucking nigger slave girls

They instead bred with Mongols, where the term for mongoloid literally comes from.

Where's Cracow AGH?

What is this?

Because the USSR prioritized those areas to compete with the US, meaning that if you were a fucking genius you would be actually able to support your family and not starve.

I didn't see it on the list.

International programming competition that apparently doesn't count because it's not graded based on number of claps.

It is.

It doesn't count because in 10 years 90% of these teams will move to the US.

Also,
>good at engineering and mathematics
>codemonkey competition

Yep.
Instead of breeding with dumb niggers who are incapable of conquering anything, holding anything, or building anything;
they bred with Mongols who conquered the biggest land based geographic swathe in the history of Mankind under 1 ruling system, and held it together for record time, included within which is the disproportionately gigantic Han Chinese populations as well as various Turkic people branches, Indian and Muslim collectives, and Slavs.
I'd say this was a genetic bargain. And Mongoloids have whiter skin than most Brits and French these days just to add insult to injury.

>Scientific Paper Trail
>Implying anglos don't attack other countries publications
>Implying peer reviews aren't just a big anglo circlejerk
>Implying there aren't 2 billions of Chinese now quoting themselves because quantity > quality, this bullshit move makes their universities top rank.

Scientific papers in this decade are a joke. You can pretty much get a review in a scientific paper just by studying Google Academic keywords by year and releasing some unfinished project.

>i-it doesn't count
Get back to clapping. If you have time to shitpost, you have time to clap.

You see comrade, if drink vodka, weakest brain cell die, only leave smartest brain cell. Is simply evolution.

capitalism is nice

Upvote if you read this with russian accent

The British still had the biggest empire. Across continents. And the Mongol empire collapsed because they could only get so far before a khan died and then they'd have to go all the way back to Mongolia to choose a new one. The only thing of any worth the Mongol people did was ransack the middle east. Since it gave the West time to play catch up against the science that was coming out of there. If it was left to the Mongol people we'd still be living in Yurts and herding reindeer.

>going to Sup Forums pretending to be something you are not.
idi nahuy, suka

>If it was left to the Mongol people we'd still be living in Yurts and herding reindeer.
The Mongols adopted a lot of lifestyles and technology from their conquered lands actually.
They couldn't continue hanging on, not because of cultural-political reasons like Khan's dying,
but because they were a people of a dozen million or a little more, lording over a region of 10 to almost a hundred times more population than their whole Mongol population combined.

>Finding something good in the Mongol invasion unironically
Dude, it was the greatest disaster in Russian history

What clapping?

Ti o chem, mudak?

it's not a codemonkey competition you inbred fucktard, it's the exact opposite, algorithms and data structures, on a very complex level.

>Dude, it was the greatest disaster in Russian history
Not by a longshot. And i'm not even thinking of the 20th century when saying that.

>The Mongols adopted a lot of lifestyles and technology from their conquered lands actually.

No they didn't. Their reputation for barbarity preceeded them. So they took payment not to slaughter the natives. They continued to live like nomads and simply allowed the lands they "conquered" to continue to exist so long as they would continue to be paid.

Sorry, I forgot that this is Sup Forums, where retards actually think that programming is related to engineering or math

>implying I voted for PiS or PO

Razem voter here, technocratic socialism < all

Well, Americans are crap at science in general, that's why they imported so many great minds from other countries to populate their universities. The smartest scientists in American weren't Americans, they were Austrian, Russian, Jewish, any other origin but USA.

USA is basically a burgerland breeding ground.

technocratic socialism > all*

I dun goofd

holy shit, it looks like Stalker

I don't know if that's good or bad

>you would be in a same paygrade
Check yo facts son
Grandad was an engineer in the soviet union, earned 15 times as much as nan who was a secretary

Harsh education system, where skills, hard work and intelligence actually matter.
They actually teach that hard work brings you somewhere.

same here, grandfather was an agricultural engineer in People's Republic of Poland and he lived in a fucking huge 500 years old palace as a chief of a farm complex

engineers and other educated people in the Party were called (not at loud ofc) "the red bourgeoisie"

Sort of related: I saw a pbs special on the "math olympics" years ago. It was pretty interesting.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Mathematical_Olympiad

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_International_Mathematical_Olympiads

China seems to dominate this particular event.

I studied both in Russia and in the US.
In Russia 3/4 of our university group dropped out or were expelled for being retarded/lazy. In the US similar retards just get B or C and still graduate.

>rakłem
>technocratic socialism
>xdddddddddddddddddddddddddddd

Soviet schools were good. Also a lot of the mathematicians are jews.
Olympic math is completely different from academic math. China are bunch of monkeys that is why they are good at olympiads.

You forgot about people who actually love doing it. Take Perelman.

I love russians.

U.S. teaches you that grades brings you somewhere. No matter how will you get them.

Perelman is jewish, not russian

quantity ≠ quality

Don't bother, Britcuck is butthurt over muh empires :^)

Eastern Europe in general has people and society that has it in them to live much better than they do.
It just takes time to recover economically.

Party Member, Police, Secret Services, Army, blah blah, some were more equal than others.

yes but they hit the wall hard at 28 because they eat shit food and they are not aware of things like jogging/treadmill/diet or even propper makeup/hair maintenance.

>engineer
>not a party member

yeah, right, good luck

of course he was a party member but that's not the matter - everybody could be a party member and it was actually encouraged

the thing was, if you were a party member AND educated, you basically won in life

Russians aren't even white, what makes you think they're good at anything? What have Russians achieved Americans haven't?

Americans aren't white either, I don't get what you're trying to say.

>be white
>achieve something

Correlation?

>americans
>white

>United States of Clapistan
>white

they won the space race

Because they're orthodox christians - aka the only real church with Holy Spirit in it.

>ITT europoors with inferiority complex
Why cant we just get along bros?

Seriously? Drumpf?

>Isn't the statistic that something like 1/5th of Russians end up in Prison at some point during their lives?
Nah, I think that's blacks.

In the soviet union you could go to and finish a university degree or be conscripted for 5 years.

I agree, that would require a working justice system

That's Norilsk; way up north. That place doesn't represent Russia. Nonetheless, yes, it's a place in Russia.

>Russians
>good
Good russian is only dead one. GTFO ivan.

Because their approach of rote memorization for math works. They will force the math into you.
