It's a parody of the T.V. show Jeopardy.
On this show you pick a category and amount for your clue.
I was simulating this with my comment.
But also, insinuating that the 4 people you mentioned work together.
Cause they do.
Hope this helps.


Yea, it helped :) We have such a show. It's called "Own Game". There were two guys winning it constantly Anatoly Vasserman and Alexander Druz. Also there were another show called "Taxy" taking place in Saint Petersburg where you could take a lift anywhere as long as you were answering questions right. So imagine these two happen to participate in this show with "To Vladivostok, please."

Need some clarification above.


America is known for nearly absolute freedom of speech (many would argue to a fault). However, a lot of influential people will tip toe around China's atrocities, wrongdoings, etc. These influential people are so scared to lose out on the Chinese market that they will self-censor themselves.

I don't understand the pig reference, would you mind explaining it? I understand that "хрю" is the sound a pig makes.

That's correct. Figuratively, of course.

Oink. Usually it is a reference to Ukrainian villagers. They love salo https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salo_(food) . Very insulting when used with khokhol (Ukrainian hillbilly with typical haircut https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oseledets#Colloquialism

The orc label was already used on the Russians since the first day of the large-scale invasion of Ukraine. Their appearance and character approved this notion – the invaders resembled a savage, angry horde, nothing in resemblance of people or even an army.

So you're saying they are taking an insult commonly used on Ukrainians and turning it on Russians?

Okay, so it's a generic dehumanization tactic based on their behavior. There isn't anything about a pig in particular?

Basically, pigs spend their days rolling in the mud and shitting where they eat, just like typical russians.

Local stars at 1.15.

Seriously these people can't be considered responsible of anything, i respect them like i respect chinese rural people.
It's important to understand why such things happen, why such guys like Putin are taking the power and manage to keep it.
Such guys would never try to educate these rural people.
