Quoting: Skizzy If Russia wants to become a respectable country, then all it has to do is to 1) Denounce Soviet union, and aknowledge all it's crimes. 2) Back off from being aggressive towards all its neighbouring countries. 3) Stop being hypocritical, everything that Russia accuses others countries in, happens in Russia too and on a larger scale. 4) Fix the wide scale corruption that is hurting Russia's economic growth and people's standard of living. Respectable in the eyes of a nazi estonian? Perhaps in the eyes of a young intelligent Russian person, who does not want to live in a corrupt communist state. Yeah I am a "nazi" for wanting a wealthy and free Russian state instead of a communist shithole? There are millions of Russians who want the same, but sadly 80+% of them have been mindfucked beyond repair. Ah yes unlike the supreme estonian race which is immune to mindfucking, lets not even mention the godlike West. We aren't talking about Estonia, I hate the Estonian government more than I hate the Russian one, because being a patriot is not blindly following your leaders but questioning them. I am more pro-Russia than the average Russian who embraces a corrupt state because he thinks it represents his people, what a joke. And you are an idiot, just fuck off and buy a brain. If you want to live like a dog in a corrupt communist paradise than go ahead, I however do not, and neither does every single Russian person. I side with the intelligent Russians who have enough brains to long for freedom and wealth instead of Soviet Union 2.0. |

After television, which is largely state-controlled, the most reliable sources of information were considered to be “friends, relatives and neighbors,” followed by news websites, newspapers and radio. [link to russialist.org] Russians are and they will get really hard! The fact that they embrace the Soviet union just shows what a bunch of idiots they have been reduced to. And some people call Russia, "The last white hope", you have to be kidding really, Russians have been 10 times more duped by their government than the western countries have. I haven't heard of the French or British governments sending millions of its own people into gulags to die. But I guess you have all forgotten about the Gulags, Holodomor, forced relocating, and the communist system where you had no personal property or wealth. Listen if Russia goes to war and I'm not saying they will in next 10 years. But when they'll go Putin will be long time gone...you better pray nationalists dont fill the vacuum in Kremlin. And even if they dont the only rhetoric Russia will use, if they start a war will be nazi rhetoric. Its the only way to mobilise population and unite. Of course Russian orthodox church will back this as they allways do. You have no idea whats happenin in Russia. Extreme right is on the rise like nowhere on planet. If Russia wants to become a respectable country, then all it has to do is to 1) Denounce Soviet union, and aknowledge all it's crimes. 2) Back off from being aggressive towards all its neighbouring countries. 3) Stop being hypocritical, everything that Russia accuses others countries in, happens in Russia too and on a larger scale. 4) Fix the wide scale corruption that is hurting Russia's economic growth and people's standard of living. I agree completly. |

Another was sentenced under the article "terrorism", but was also a patriot.

Battalion "Azov" was formed at the initiative of Oleg Lyashko in accordance with the decision, "Facebook minister" Arsen Avakov holding the office of Acting Minister of Internal Affairs of the current illegitimate government. Avakov later regretted his decision as Lyashko staffed whole battalion with outright Nazis. Avakov accused Lyashko that the battalion has ex-convicts, which is why he did not give them weapons - as we can see, Lyashko confirmed the words of acting head of the Ukrainian Ministry of Internal Affairs. |
