Pfff...it has been a while again. I guess it is time for me to distance myself from politics that I so much was interested to follow for so long. I can't handle such gigantic amount of bad karma without getting upset anymore. It is getting too personal. I can't stand Putin's BS. He is SO full of SHIT that I feel revolted just looking at his botoxed face with these empty fish eyes. His double standards, lies and the bottomless abyss he throws Russia into - it is just too much and not worth it. The stupidity, selfishness and cruelty of his politics is disgusting and overwhelming. I said it as soon as he "got reelected". There will be trouble, big trouble..And my Russian friends were telling me: - oh well, not ideal, but no big deal. It will be fine..
Now, look how fine it is. One friend was telling me: - I don't like Putin, but even less I like our opposition. Dear friend, did it ever crossed your mind that the opposition you've got is the only opposition that Putin allows to exist?..for as long as it does not make too many waves. The moment real cry for freedom or diversion from government course breaks out - it is suffocated, bought out or threatened and annihilated. What da hell do you expect from a spy and his web of close friends. Do you really think that those pathetic scandals in LDPR etc are NOT staged? Please, give me a break.
Those outrageously ridiculous laws lately: anti-gay, no cursing, no adoption by foreign citizens, bloggers law, ban on foreign goods. Seriously? WHO do you think you punish, bloody fucker (aka Putin)? Not urself, obviously..Why not to stop importing natural gas and oil then to Europe? No? Too close to your own pocket? What a peace of shit. Wanted to engrave his name in history books with Crimea? Yeah, u did it...I was born and lived for 16 years in Sevastopol. Most Russian city of them all. And yes, I was always pro-Russian. But years of freedom really opened my eyes and my mind...and it is not so black and white, and it is not so simple. I do not support Crimea's annexation. And I was born there. Lived there half of my life. I had big issue with Ukrainisation during my last year there and Ukraine made a big mistake by not makign Russian official language. But the way Putin plaid it out..haha...yeah, I'd like to see what he would say about freedom of choice if Siberia would like to separate..Yeah, lets see how understanding he would be then, scum..I guess, Russians and Ukrainians have to go through what they are going now. But by all means annexation was and is still a crime. Huge crime. Ukraine gave up its nuclear power for a very clear, black on white statement from Russia not to violate its borders. I don't think they advertise this fact very much in Russia. Okay, people, this is what you wanted - this is what you've got. Good luck. You could have been free with Europe, but you choose slavery under Putin. I hope it will play out well for you, eventually.
I am amazed how Putin and his crew cultivate the hatred for foreigners (especially Americans) in his own nation. And I am sad for this nation that follows him like blind sheep in its majority. So utterly ridiculous. Or this law about ban on foreign accounts..he is really set out on isolation of Russia. This Juche BS is not going to work for Russia. System is too rotten and there is not enough expertise & machinery and it wont be stimulated enough in this environment to grow. Yeah, follow NK. And this new friendship with China..Putin, don't kid yourself. China will rule the world in the next 100 years, but you will forever stay China's bitch. You are not a partner, you are not a friend. You are a tool for China to use and to rule. You say you'll sell oil and gas to China - lets see how profitable and expensive. It will never be for the same price as you did for Europe. I am so glad that my kids won't be raised in this swamp and web of lies and corruption. I realize that the future of the nation is its own doing. I understand when people scream - dont like it here - get out. And yeah, I did. And am happy about it. There are ways to thrive in Russia and live well..if you are not too proud and dont have too many principles that is..if you know which butt to kiss, if you know when to shut up or when to step aside...when u know how to submit or not to ask too much..or if you are really far away from politics. As long as you dont get in Putin's filed of vision and dont end up on his black list. Putin really must be taking people for idiots..they will eat anything he's gonna sell them. I can't listen to him even for awareness purposes. He's lost it long ago. But now he doesnt even hide it.
His direct influenced brought the uprising in Ukraine up. He sponsors and supports something in Ukraine what he would never allow or tolerate in his own country - separatism. If it is somewhere else - it is people's demand for their rights and independence. But if ti is in Russia - it is treason and prison. Every politician lies. Every politician bends the truth to be able to sway the public and influence their opinion, but he takes it to the absurdity that can rival North Korea. This is where Russia is going. I've read extensively about NK. Reminds me greatly of USSR, but a darker version. This is NOT how you wanna end up, people. I've tasted freedom. I can never go back to a set of mind when I let people decide for me. He will end up badly. Like I predicted that his "reelection" will. He will end up badly like Khadaffi and I hope I'll live to see it.
I completely understand how hard it is in Russia's rotten systems and bureaucratic swamp to be heard or to change things. The system is deep and it is rotten to the core. Join it or die. But there is Singapore. Look how it was and what it became. Bully like Putin only understands force, you cannot reason with a liar, torturer and a spy. The world he lives in - it is another world from which we live in. He cannot plan god forever. He supported the loyalists system, where loyalty is more valuable than skill and expertise and it will bite him back int he ass. I hope it will bite it off completely, figuratively speaking. What you, Russian people, are taking as normal is unthinkable here..because people have rights, people get results and people are respectful of each other. Nothing and nowehere is perfect, but can't you really see how far back Putin and his regime throws you in development..it is so very sad. This reform of RAN (Russian Academy of Science) is another blow..Yeah, things should have been reformed, but, sorry, not the way it has been don. I hope your friend is happy, Putin. And I mean Michail Kovalchuk.
I do not think that he is anyhow behind the crash of MH17, but it is with his blessing that missiles were provided to the rebels. And time and over again I am convinced that you cannot give a grenade to a monkey. When you provided technology greatly surpasses the mental development of its users - it's a road to a nuclear winter, idiots. I hate stupidity. Hate it! So shorthanded, so selfsentric, so stupid!!!!!! In the 21st century those people still live i Middle Ages. In stead of globalization the want to build walls and sit on their bone thrones like leaders of some prehistoric savage tribes. Damn those stupid idiots. 80 children died on this plane!!! Fuckers.
Instead of collaboration and working together Putin wants to sit on the thrones. Alone. He will die alone too. I hope. Fear is not the way to lead. it is quite a vicious circle that Putin set up for his folk..people are either afraid for their future to try for changes, drawn in the web of lies and brainwashed or too short minded to act. They live the way they can and know. When you don't know any better..I used to be very sensitive about my patriotic Russian feelings, but it is so long gone now..I am a citizen of the world, a globalist (with respect for every culture as long as it is respecting others). My mind is set on the stars and conquer of the future together..not battle and drawn in petty local conflicts. As long as people dont hurt or bother others, they can live the way they want. By the way Putin, why does your daughter lives in Holland? Why not Russia, eh? Why she is married to a Dutchman? Why not Russian? So, allow this freedom to ur daughter, but u rob ur nation off it. Die already, fucking vampire. Don't think I ever was so disgusted with anyone. I had to pour my frustration to close the issue and to focus on good things. So, here went.
Image of Russians suffered significantly. I always say to everyone, please, mind that Russian government and Russian people are not the same! You can argue that each nation has the government it deserves..but it is not as simple as that..transition period is often long and painful. And to Russians I want to say..I really don't believe that Putin's government has your interest at heart. cancelling your pension funds?? haha..yeah, lets see how this will play out. You are just meat, tools..for him and his crew to play gods.18 years in power! This is just sick. Last thing he thinks about is how to make your life better. It is he who must be your servant, not you who are his. The tables are reversed. In Europe our politicians are accountable for what they do, they answer to us. And if they do shitty job, off they go. Who is accountable in this big Russian bureaucratic machine? I hope Singapore miracle will happen for Russia..So much talent and potential. Please, let it not be wasted. What used to bug me about some Russians (not sure if ti si still a big issue) is the love for freebees..getting stuff and nto paying for it. It is so deeply rooted, or at least was. For as long as such mentality is in its majority - do not expect a major shift for the better. You need to give as much as you take to make it work. You can't deplete without consequences. Honesty and hard work is crucial for the future. Europe has its problems and I believe that future is in Asia, but still we live, we count and we choose. And for that I am grateful. I always vote. I do my part. And I value this opportunity. I will never take it for granted, because I have seen the other side. Side with no food, no light, no warms, no water, insane competition..yet I had my ways to be happy. I didn't know any better. It was my world... But it can be better. It can be..and it should. For the future of our kids.
