Why, I'm also ashamed about you. All that some-genuine-but-mostly-bullshit from the mentioned page dims before the conjecture that Russia was supposed to become 300-million-strong Denmark, and what we've got instead over the course of XX century is closer to 140-million-stong Nigeria in the snow. Real Nigeria, however, has much better demographic prospects. "Есть пустыни и вулканы, Острова и океаны. Только жизни нет, только жизни нет..."

  Luckly there are less than 10% of you in the Russian population despite how vocal you are. You'll never get support because your philosophy is one of hate and denial of what was and can be a great nation. You always have the option of moving to Kiev. I hear they are building a European nation in line with your Putin hating values.

    There's just you and me here now, and that makes me 50%. Of course many people struggle to admit the miserable result of their whole lives, but the result is objectively miserable.

        You can only speak for yourself. I can only speak for myself. That's how dialogue goes.

    > You always have the option of moving to Kiev. I hear they are building a European nation in line with your Putin hating values. Interesting. I've never seen (with my own eyes) a better example of the Putin worship and animosity towards Ukraine than your comment here. I'd heard that it existed, but started to wonder if that wasn't some Western propaganda after all. Thanks for clearing that up.
