Tanned russians folklore OK

/e btw


Paradise on Earth
I grew up in a wonderful place
And I write my best song about him
Oh-ho-h-x, golden fields
E-he-he-x, endless seas

Kuban, Zhinitsey of Russia
Kuban, Pearl of Russia
And I sincerely believe and assure you
If there is paradise in the world, then this ...

Krasnodar Territory is paradise
Krasnodar Territory is a generous crop
Krasnodar Territory - luxurious resorts
His hugs are always open for you

On the way to the sea I will buy watermelons
We sing corn on the beach
Then I'll look at the red sun
And once again I sincerely say:

If there is paradise in the world
Then this is the Krasnodar Territory

I really dont understand this argument. Ukraine has far right extremists in its army. Whether Russia has as well, is irrelevant. All that is being highlighted is that elements in the Ukraine army are highly questionable. I guess its a hot side topic.

You have state-run nationalism on both sides

Ruscism, Russism

Could also ask Norlander about russian nationalism, maybe he has some experience.

"irrelevant" ? No. What i saw by my own eyes is Ukrainian flags in schools, clearly in last years Ukraine worked in developping a national identity, and this is another reason why Putin decided to agress them IMO.
You will tell me "so this is the proof they are horrible nationalists" : and i will answer: Ruscism/Russism is here since a while, trying to absorb everything.
Once again Norlander can tell us about this balance on both sides (and not chopshit777 who is an american troll)

Russia invaded = baddies (regardless of motives). If Russia has 1 million nazi's so be it. We already started on the premise of Russia invaded = baddies, so the volume of nazi's (or otherwise) on russia's side is not the conversation, since they are already the baddies ok?

the conversation (as i understand it?) is: Ukraine has far right extremists in its armed forces, that have marched in their thousands in the streets of Ukraine, and well there is some online images and videos of them doing, well, bad things. Thus when trying to compare numbers of baddies between Ukraine and Russia your already losing the argument to my mind as its not a question of who has more, its the fact that both have them in numbers and they appear to be more prevalent/accepted in Ukraine.

/edit i edited this last bit, a little.

yes that comment did not age well xD

Posting it 3rd time already. It really worth a hour and half of watching. When your grear-uncle, who being a Hungarian and barely speaks Ukrainian, calls you a Muscovite for just living in Moscow then something is wrong on a state level. Propaganda works pretty well dividing families, crushing lives for a barrel of oil or cubic metre of gas. We are living in truly Apocalyptic times, when Plague already happened, while War is going on and Hunger is at the door.
