    Same there, I trust FSB MUCH more than organisations, that for generations worked on destruction of the country I been born in. But, it's not FSB that makes accusations of an international crime. Very loud, repeating accusation, with not even a mous fart behind them to prove any of them are not just propagandistic militaristic lies of services that really badly want to genocide my nation. ^^

    Yea, American Leftists are obsessed with race but in typical Leftist fashion they only focus the most general of mcnugget-sized tidbits of information.

    They don't know Russia has over a 100 different ethnic groups, and they don't care.

    They see White colored skin and that is all they need to assume the worst.

    Heh. No one is seeking to "genocide" your nation. Opposing Russia's antics in Syria and Ukraine (not to mention past theaters, such as Afghanistan and Georgia) is a far cry from seeking Russia's destruction and the killing of its people.

    Not all of us want that, Ninian. But you can see how mad one side of this country gets when they don't get their way.

    Would you be surprised to find out that that's how normal everyday Russian citizens feel about us thanks to our oversensationalizing hypersensitive media when it comes to Russia? I wouldn't. The media needs to tone it the **** down.

    From the normal, everyday Russians I've encountered, that isn't the case at all. I'm sure there are a few who fall for Russia's right-wing nonsense, though. No one is immune to that crap, unfortunately, and Putin dishes it out in spades.

    It may be a far cry - but three of my relatives loosing jobs in past two years is not a far cry, it's a ****ing disaster. An obvious disaster for minor business, while corporations expand, taking the emptied space.

    He tells about the fact thar Russians is not a 'white nation'. Unless you mean the russian ethnic specifically, country got literally more than a hundred of various native ethnics, of various phenotypes, cultures, religions and languages. Russian used commonly much like English is used as common language in USA, but is far from being the only language spoken in Federation. So seeing Russians being called a 'white nation' is sincerely silly to the extremes.

    Well, I do remind you - people aware that NATO keeps trying to encircle country in anti-missile defences, that practically negate our nuclear arsenal and expose country to the classic warfare. It sure as hell is concerning. Just few years ago not many people bothered with that... Until the Crimean referendum and armed conflict in Donbass.

    Vote out the kleptocrats. You can do it. They may put up quite a fight, but you can do it.

    I agree entirely with that. I know Russia is very ethnically diverse. It was that nonsense about liberals that had me wondering.

    Do I tell you who vote for? Don't even try. Want have that conversation - get RF citizenship first.

    That - is a matter of principle.

    No offence meant.

    Russia has invaded Ukraine and stolen its territory in what it calls a referendum and thereby pretends is a peaceful, legitimate action, so of course NATO is going to respond. It practically exists to protect Europe against such aggression and was even more important when the USSR existed, being the rather sizable threat that it was. There is a good reason there have been no "referendums" in NATO countries, and you'll notice that Russians aren't being persecuted there either.

    Well, it's their actions that are leading to the current problems. They like to play innocent and claim that the US and NATO are out to get Russia. It helps them cling to power domestically. It always helps to have an external enemy and villain.

    As for NATO itself - it exists as a projection of raw, brutal, ruthless power. Between dissolution of USSR and 'russian agression' passed twenty three years, during which NATO expanded twice and kept encircling territory of my country with anti-missile defences. Not any other country - MINE!

    Look in the mirror once in a while, and repeat these words to yourself. I wonder how many times it'll take to realize how incredibly fit they are for you.

    They're not. Have we violated Russian sovereignty? No. Has Russia invaded a European country and is it supporting a separatist movement there in addition to having stolen a part of its territory? Yes. Go ahead, look into that mirror.

    And in what way suddenly Ukraine is more of a european country than RF? Or since when THAT is even matters? What, countries in Asia or in America now do not have same sovereignity as european country?

    NOT TO MENTION the fact that this 'invasion' is still not proven. Thankfully, we have the International Court of Justice now working on that matter, and they work with facts - not a propaganda of USA or RF. Or Ukraine, considering they'll need a lot of propaganda to hide fact that their president had subjugated to wishes of a neo-nazy group.

    You're in contact with one right now, and they have a different opinion. The Russian is able to speak to the both of us about the way Russians feel.

    Mention race while explaining why liberals are obsessed with race isn't ironic, its substantiation.
