      Have you been to France? I lived in southern France - well, who wouldn't love that! - and French people, if you understand their culture and the unwritten rules of personal communication - are truly wonderful, friendly, caring people. I've lived in 7 different countries on 3 continents and now I live in Finland, right next door to Russia. From here, we only see the smart ones who fled the country to avoid conscription. My Russian neighbor is a young man with a wife and baby. He's neatly dressed, speaks no English and is learning Finnish. I use an app and learn one Russian phrase a day. So at least, I can say "good morning" and simple stuff. Now he waves "hi" to me and I'm glad he didn't go to war.
      Because when all is said and done, most people want the same thing: a good place to live, work, go to school, raise their kids, affordable healthcare, and a nice way to spend their leisure time. Unfortunately, there is evil among us; people who will do anything to obtain power until they are the defacto rule of an entire nation and then become aggressive in the desire to expand their empire.

    it's intriguing that rural (and older) Russians perceive their closest neighbors most negatively: Poland, Ukraine, Latvia, Lithuania... Oddly they don't seem to ask themselves why these nations, once part of the USSR/Warsaw Pact are now the most vocal opponents of Moscow. There seems to be little insight as to what Russia did historically and currently. Everything was about what these other nations did to Russia (betrayals, traitorous, opposing...) as if Russia is a benign, passive if not innocent onlooker to the world's stormy waters.

      Russians rarely ask themselves where the resentment of other "brotherly" nations toward Russia comes from. I even found some attempts to answer. Russians have concluded that this dislike comes from the fact that all these countries are smaller than Rosi, and it is through jealousy and complexes that they resent Russia. I don't know how stupid you have to be to come up with something like this, because no scale of measurement goes that far :D
      Yes, it is a great mystery why the countries that Russia has conquered, humiliated, exploited and murdered the peoples there today give her dislike. And this despite the fact that Russia has regularly insulted the local nations since 2000, spying, sabotaging, threatening (including nuclear attacks) orz announcing re-conquest. They have already managed to attack several neighbors. I don't know what these countries see wrong with Russia either. :)
      They owe so much to Russia: Wasted 50 years of development, poverty, cultural decline, cultural destruction, rotten urban planning, export of raw materials, illegal shifting of borders, massive looting of everything the Germans didn't steal, military interventions, generational trauma and hundreds of thousands of born bastards from Soviet rape. The good things of the Russian myriad alone.

      It's not the "russian" mindset, none of my russian acquaintances are like that as they come from more developed cities with better accesses.
      The mindset you describe is a classic result of political & cultural endoctrination that affect (these days post 2022) mostly ppl in far, disconnected from modern areas of countries who don't have the infrastructures to access most of the modern world.
      Ppl raised in such areas are vulnerable to cultural and emotional manipulation forcing opinions and conceptions of the world and life through political propaganda. Conditionning people to hate on things (usually against foreign cultures/people) without ever requiring clear rational explanations.
      So when somebody dares asking concretely "why", ppl are confused yet are still certain beyond doubt that they have "in themselves" firm and rock-solid reasons to hate those cultures they're telling you they hate. Most importantly, they indeed never get to ever cross path, due to lack of accesses, to the rest of the world. Disconnected from the reality of those cultures/people that are hated, which profoundly validates any opinion over time as it can never be crossed with significantly different opinions to develop an objective and critical reasoning.
      A lot of americans are very much the same, they're own way :). The deeper in the country side, the more endoctrinated they are with american culture and propaganda. Yet even educated yanks are like that. Recent political, social and mostly economical/financial issues in the USA have brought a lot of "educated americans" (for what it's worth: not complete retards), whose comments on Europe in social media epitomize American indoctrination and their perceptions of foreign cultures, perpetuating the stereotype of the uneducated American lost outside their star-flag bubble

    I am Russian and I live in the US. Last summer I visited my 82 year old parents who live in Russia. They live in one of the biggest Russian cities and they both are intelligent people and have a bachelor degree. When I asked them when the World War II started, they told me they don't really want to know and it doesn't matter, they know very well when and how Germany started the war with Soviet Union. Then I asked them if they know anything about the secret pact or agreement between Germany and the Soviet Union (Molotov - Ribbentrop Pact) signed right before the World War II started. Secret protocols of the treaty defined the territorial spheres of influence Germany and Russia would have after a successful invasion of Poland. The answer was no. When I asked them if they know that Germany and Soviet Union planned to attack Poland together - they didn't believe me. That Soviet Union attacked Poland a few days after Germany's attack - same answer no from them. My parent lived all their life with the idea that the Soviet Union is a peaceful country bringing a freedom to all countries, helping countries in trouble, and so on. My parents were upset and just could not believe me that this is the fact. By the way, when I was a student at school (1972-1982), I also never learned about it from my Russian history textbooks. It was a secret document released only during Perestroika time - in 90th. Now Russia is going to keep many documents/records of that time secret and do not release to the public for another 50 years - this was in Russian official news. This explains a lot to me about Russians, especially, why they support the war now - they are being deceived, brainwashed for many years. They just can't believe that Russia kills Ukrainians every day. My mom is saying - Russian Army can't do it. I don't argue - it's useless... It is really sad to watch what they are saying in this video.

      You may as well ask them if they know that Poland and Nazi Germany together invaded Czechoslovakia a year before Germany invaded Poland. Or you can ask "why haven't UK declared war on USSR after they attacked Poland", they also won't tell you, but answer is quite simple - at the time USSR attacked, Polish government already left Poland and it was a month after Germany was crushing them with ez, so either USSR took half of Poland, or Germany took everything. Or you can ask them about "Chamberlain appeasement", because literally everyone tried to befriend Germany at the time, including all of EU and UK.
      So when you're saying "omg, USSR is evil and wanted to befriend Germany" - you're forgetting that everyone did the same, because no-one wanted to fight against industrial powerhouse. 26m Russian losses proved Stalin being right

    The older Russians grew up in a different World to the younger generation. Their views are formed by their experiences prior to the break up of the USSR. My experience of Russians was formed by the family of my friends. Their step-father and his family were the most lovely, generous, big hearted family and their mother who is still alive today, in her 90’s was German/Polish suffered through WWII. As immigrants they all lived (with their Russian grandmother) in the one house and helped each other save and buy their first homes. Hard working, happy and generous. I don’t think they would believe that people in Russia are so intolerant as to call neighbouring people “breeds”. Thank goodness for the modern technology that links the younger generation to the outside World and enables them to see that we do not hate Russians, only the political regime that keeps them ignorant.

As for Poland an elderly relative who had married a Pole lived under Soviet rule in Poland in the late 40s and 50s when they were annexed by the Soviets during and after WW2. They were treated appallingly, watched, and followed, food was particularly short even, they had no freedoms at all. She said blackest time in her life.

      The U.S. is not a democracy. You wouldn't find this out by visiting. As if you can find out about what a country is like by some short stay. Silly.
      The U.S. is not controlled by the descendants of Americans. The U.S. is controlled by the descendants of Nazis who invaded in 1935 and committed genocide on the American people and NATO is a Nazi organization and an international smuggling ring.
      Why is the genocide of the American people not commonly known? That's how many people they killed in the U.S.
      and how much control they have over the U.S.
      I have eyewitness accounts, emails, and audio recordings with U.S. Congresswoman Abigail Spanberger, a German and former CIA. The U.S. Congress is heavily German. The State Congress's are much more heavily German.
      And these Nazis are still bent on worldwide domination and control. And they don't care how may people die because they are Nazis.
      For instance, these Nazis found Nazis in Ukraine to support. And their hatred for Russia is because if not for Russia the Nazis would have taken over the world and there would have been world wide genocide only seen in Star Wars movies and there would be NO Russia today. All the Russian people would have been executed. All of them. As they did to almost every American in the country.
      You do see the head of NATO, Stoltenberg, who is a German with Norwegian citizenship. How many Norwegians were killed during the Nazi occupation? No one really knows. But Stoltenberg's family stayed alive because they were German. And Stoltenberg's father just happened to wind up with a very nice position in the Norwegian government and now his son is head of NATO.
      WW II is not over yet. And these Germans who occupy and control the US want to finish the destruction of Russia that they started in the beginning of WW II. This is the entire reason for U.S. support of the war in Ukraine and all the wars they have been in since 1945. See, Murder of the Creoles of New Orleans 1935, RUclips. My father was there. I went to school in the USA that was mostly for German kids. I have a half sister and a half brother who have the same Nazi father in the USA.
      And Nazi's murdered people in every country they occupied so they probably control many of those other EU countries as well. NATO is a Nazi organization responsible for the killing of millions around the globe because they are Nazi's.
      Operation Gladio was also a Nazi organization and Operation Paperclip was a Nazi strategy.
      WW II is still going on.
      Britain? With the outbreak of World War I in the summer of 1914, strong anti-German feeling within Britain caused sensitivity among the royal family about its German roots. Kaiser Wilhelm II of Germany, also a grandson of Queen Victoria, was the king’s cousin; the queen herself was German. As a result, on June 19, 1917, the king decreed that the royal surname was thereby changed from Saxe-Coburg-Gotha to Windsor.
      Queen Victoria was half-German, her husband German
      .
      I am French. One of the survivors of the Nazi genocide of the American people that included French, Dutch, Italian, Spanish, Mexican, Africans, part Africans and many more.

      There were some who became German surrogates. There was a man name Wilcox in Waveland, MS. He told me he thought it was a racial thing. He said he would never have betrayed his country. Ran the city to his death. He could have sex with any woman he wanted as young as he wanted til his death about 20 years ago. Had the only real estate office there. No one else could. Owned the big shopping center there as well.
      People are being killed there all the time. They do it to one another. Depends on what someone has. If they have "too much" they are fair game for those connected to the German elites in that area.
      And this is repeated all over the U.S. regularly. All people with no soul, no conscience, no shame.

Also there is fear being doxxed and people harassing or attacking you in real life, which has happened to even non-famous people. Also aside from America there are laws in some European countries that will fine you or put you in jail for saying certain "offensive" things. The definitions in those laws are vague and the laws can and have been abused.

    It's interesting how the word "provocative"/"provocation" seems to be one of the favorite (well, most commonly used) words amongst the Russian public, when responding to the questions posed on this channel. It's just not something we would ever say in "The West", at least _nowhere near_ as often as Russians use the word. It's like they've all been....brainwashed. 🤷‍♂️ or maybe "programmed" is a better word. Ironic, really, that the Russian government seems to claim everything done by its "unfriendly" neighbors is "a provocation", when Russia seems to be *by far* the guiltiest party in any international "provocations". My guess is that Russian state tv/press use the word so often that it's become part of everyday vocabulary for Russian citizens. What a sad, sad country.

    I remember some ten years ago reading a news story where a Russian military transport plane crashed in residential area soon after take off. It was somewhere behind Urals, Novosibirsk maybe. They interviewed a local resident who heard the crash and told the media that he thought that "America has finally attacked". This was before 2014 and current Ukrainian conflict. I was rather astonished by this. A city in the middle of Russia, thousands of kilometers inlands, and the first thing you'd think about while hearing an explosion is that the Americans are bombing us. It really made me think what kind of crap are people being fed with if they still around 2010 lived in the cold war mentality that the enemy (naturally the USA) is going to attack any day now. But the truth is that the cold war only ended in west. Russia maybe forgot it momentarily in the 90s, but ever since Putin got into power, the war on minds started again. "They hate us. The Americans, the west. They want to harm Russia for no reason. They laugh at us.". Putin's propaganda machine has been preparing people for a war for 20 years and these poor country bumpkins are the proof of it. No one in the west hates you for being Russians. Now many might hate you since you started a brutal war but you wouldn't know that since you don't even know you started a brutal war. Because you have been lied all these years.

      You don't know much. The USA decided in 1999 to take on Russia and that led to the civil war in Ukraine and eventually the war between Ukr. And Russia. The USA funded that civil war, started it to depose the then leadership of Ukraine and install their own man (eventually Zelensky). The civil war was funded by the USA and cost them over $1billion (as declared by a Democrat member of congress). This current war is funded by the USA and NATO, started by the USA when they tried again and again to get Ukraine into NATO and then to place nuclear weapons on Ukraine's eastern border with Russia - that is what the USA wants. The USA is moving B52 bombers into the UK this week (nuclear capable). Russia cannot have USA nuclear weapons on its border. Certainly the USA would not tolerate Russian nuclear weapons in Mexico on the USA's border.

    @orkako 2 года назад +213

    I knew the answers even before watching (USA, Ukraine and Poland).
    P.S..
    For those who wonder when Russia Poland betrayed this I already explain:
    In 1939, the USSR, together with the Third Reich, invaded and partitioned Poland. The Soviets, like the Germans, mass-murdered the Polish population. After World War II, Western countries surrendered Central Europe to the Soviets, including Poland, for their own peace of mind. The killings continued until 1957, and then the Russian protectorate began. The Soviets treated the countries of Central Europe as their own colonies, although their influence diminished with each decade. In 1989, when the USSR was in decline, Poland, along with other Eastern Bloc countries, broke free from the Soviet grip. Fearing a Russian attack, they fled to the protection of NATO, where, by the way, they belong, as these countries are part of Western civilization.
    When Putin came to power, he had to silence the voices asking why Poland is developing and getting rich so rapidly, while Russia is not. Russians commonly compared Russia to Poland because they are two large Slavic countries that went their separate ways in the '90s. To quell uncomfortable questions, Putin launched a propaganda campaign against Poland that continues to this day. According to it, Poland has always invaded Russia, is a crazy imperialist country seeking to subjugate neighboring countries, was an ally of Hitler, is co-responsible for unleashing the Second Volley War, and in 1989 Poland betrayed Russia (although the propaganda does not explain what this betrayal is supposed to consist of). Of course, every day there are articles in the Russian press about what a terrible place Poland is to live in, how Poles fanatically hate Russians, and what new intrigues Polish politicians are plotting at the behest of the US. It has even gotten to the point that such an insignificant country as Poland in the Russian consciousness takes its place next to the most important modern countries in the world XD
