Howdy neighbor! What do you make of the claims that the SMO is a farce? It sure seems real enough from just 1000 km North.
Also, what do you make of recent RU govt resentment towards Baltic States for choosing to implement citizenship requirements? I've been saying for years this is something that USA needs to do earnestly.
Assimilate or you don't participate!
It’s real. A friend of ours lost a loved one who was serving in combat on the Russian side. And it’s about some of the things people here are saying it’s about — we know someone who used to live in Avdeevka in Donetsk which has been bitterly contested the whole conflict, and she was telling us about the allegations of what Ukraine had been doing there before it made even the anon news because everyone there knew about it years ago.
Remember that there is a specific history to formerly soviet places. There are Russian people in places like Latvia who were 100% legal and legitimate to be there before the fall of the USSR, then one day it was different. They’re changing the rules out from under people who were born there. Russia certainly supports border control and rules — our family has required intervention from high officials several times to get through their process! This isn’t that.
Assimilation is a large and long standing problem in LV. Same as it is in say America with Hispanic immigrants. The laws that went into effect last year have been in parliamentary talks for over a decade.
Beware of the RU MSM though, same as any other. Baba isn't getting deported over here because she can't pass the language test requirements. It's mainly preexisting transients, homeless, and newer immigrants who refuse to take the language & civics testing.
I noticed when they had the annual mini Moscow event that the issue was brought up in a negative light, with TAS claiming poor old bababuška is getting the boot when that simply isn't the case.
I'd say only, unless there's some oddly specific instance that the public isn't privy to. I know despite the new citizenship laws, little has changed in my old neighborhood which is traditionally 1/3 Russian.
Fantastic thread frens. Looking forward to hearing more reports from you, Anosha.
I was in Moscow nearly 25 years ago, the week that the sub Kursk went down in the Berends Sea. The western influence was minimal at the time, at least for a tourist (there were only two "Western" hotels - I stayed at the Marriot on Tverskiya Street). Going through immigration in Sherementyevo was an experience. I found the city and the Russian people incredibly fascinating.
We stayed in an apartment near the swanky hotels on Novy Arbat the summer of 2020 and laughed and laughed at the huge lightboard with Nike BLM ads running on loop. So much money and zero people interested in any way.
There are indications that the Russian government is marking the pandemic measures as a western thing that they’re not going to participate in next time around. Certainly the people are both more skeptical and less inclined toward the west than was the case in 2020!
There was social pressure to mask. There was tape on the floor of every public place. There was testing, and I know someone who got very sick only having been repeatedly tested and never vaccinated. There were government jobs that required vaccination, unfortunately.
That said, compliance was laughably less than in the west. Don’t believe the official vaccination numbers for a minute. Masks worn on the chin were considered fully masked in almost every situation. And I can’t recall a single time when more than a very few people paid any attention to distance at all.
The Russian language is quite difficult to learn, but it is possible.
I’m both an American anon and newly a Russian citizen as well, moved to Russia just before covid hit. Available to discuss it, thanks u/winn for mentioning me.
This guy shows what I have been saying …the general Russian viewpoint feels a whole lot like conversation with Q-aware American patriots. The main difference is that the progress on the plan is much more overt in Russia.
I would hazard a guess that this guy quite strongly supports Putin. I don’t meet people who are this awake who don’t.
Sadly, I think all the once Great Western Nations are being robbed of their wealth and are having their good names destroyed in the eyes of the World. It is an absolute abomination.
I don't know if I'd put too much weight behind what this guy says. I don't doubt he's genuine but most people in general are still buying into some part or another of the old narrative. People who left Russia around that time or earlier have good reason not to trust the Russian govt. Seems like Putin has slowly earned his level of support from a justifiably wary public.
There sure are a lot of dead people for a "lie"...just sayin'. It's more likely that Putin is taking out the garbage...Nazis, U.S. funded Bio-weapons labs and "three letter agency" infrastructure.
i received witness testimony that Flix Busses are choke full of Ukranian " refugees" going on holidays to visit family and friends, these past days ....
I am not saying nothing is happening. Quite the contrary. But I still think this is a conflict kept very limited and contained.
I stopped reading this in the first paragraph, as I know someone who arrived here just before covid for legal immigration. Covid 19 vax is NOT REQUIRED.
Well, you can stop reading whenever you want. But this is what he told me and it was just this week. Maybe things have changed since you talked to your friend in 2019, 5 years ago.
Was the person from Russia too, or from some other country? You know how our government treats people from various countries and situations completely differently.
The illegals pouring over the border are given phones, housing and a monthly check and don't have to be vaccinated at all. And, their children are allowed to attend school with none of the required childhood vaccinations that legal citizens must get.
But, if you are a legal immigrant, you get none of those privileges.
Also, remember when the unvetted, random Afghans jumped onboard our last plane out of Afghanistan when Biden did his dastardly exit? The Afghans weren't vaxxed and our soldiers said when they reported it, the response was, "Give them Ivermectin." This shocked the soldiers, because the soldiers were forced to get the vaccinations and Ivermectin had been banned for use, but not for these random foreigners!
Burn!
So, back to the matter at hand, maybe because this guy is Russian, they are treating him with less leniency. How would we even know?
You mean taking the word of unknown random Russian repairmen via an anonymous internet commenter isn't how you get your geopolitical information and viewpoints??
I liken us all to bees that go out and gather pollen from all the plants for as far away as we can fly, and then bring it all back to the hive to make honey for everyone. If you don't like the pollen I've found, too bad!
I'd like to add a convo I had with u/Anosha , who is in Russia, a few weeks ago.

👋🏻 available to discuss more. (I am an American anon who moved to Russia several years ago and am now a citizen there too.)

100% concur. Thanks for the reply!

Mainly or only? The stories I have read have been specific and falsifiable when I read past the headline and initial packaging fluff.

I think your new location is perfect to bring us all the news from there that we don't get to hear over here.
Sadly, I think all the once Great Western Nations are being robbed of their wealth and are having their good names destroyed in the eyes of the World. It is an absolute abomination.
Excellent story, thanks for posting. Always great to see info from those who know.
he's coming back to putin his part?
Tee hee.
Now do Israel.
Tbf Russia is probably 100 times safer for Tucker Carlson to physically be in than Israel right now lmao
You want me to ask him his thoughts on Israel when he comes back?
there's definitely real aspects in the war. there's videos out there of them killing each other.
But how much is staged or filmed with extras and CGI? How can we ever know?
I hear there's Taylor swift porn out there lol
depends where you're seeing it probably. if it's GRUESOME we have to hunt for it. and I'm talking GRUESOME.
I don't know if I'd put too much weight behind what this guy says. I don't doubt he's genuine but most people in general are still buying into some part or another of the old narrative.

If they are targeted 'removals' of all the dangerous BSL 2, 3 & 4 facilities and evil cooperating scientists, that would be good.
If they are stopping the child trafficking and organ harvesting organizations, that would be admirable.
Regular people are likely unaware of these facilities and wouldn't even know about them if they were removed.
Taking out the garbage and the bioweapon labs is OK by me.
Confirmation on what is going on:
i received witness testimony that Flix Busses are choke full of Ukranian " refugees" going on holidays to visit family and friends, these past days ....
I am not saying nothing is happening. Quite the contrary. But I still think this is a conflict kept very limited and contained.

Perhaps you're wrong? The official documentation does not support your claim.

Thanks for bringing that info back to the post, fren!
Here's the thing. Maybe you cross the border today it's different. But your Russian BS is way older than my 2019. So still calling BS
Well, you can stop reading whenever you want. But this is what he told me and it was just this week. Maybe things have changed since you talked to your friend in 2019, 5 years ago.
Literally yesterday

My bet is on the anon
I liken us all to bees that go out and gather pollen from all the plants for as far away as we can fly, and then bring it all back to the hive to make honey for everyone. If you don't like the pollen I've found, too bad!
