Below is my response to CatsFive’s EU Post here. To support the point the PM made about Russia. And no y’all I’m not Russian or if Russian decent. Just a scholar from the US of US and World history. And no I’m not going to link sh1t, as what I’m posting you can research to read and learn as I had to. Yes my Russian Anons here, a good Ol’American actually gets y’all. 😁 Thank you and God bless each of you.

People reeeeally need to “Unlearn what they have learned” about Russia, especially in the last 10-15 years. Yes, Russia has a long history of being a closed minded Country, ever since The Wall fell, and since an ex-KGB Officer became its Leader.
But in the “timeline” of becoming a new thinking Nation, they’re still young. Like America in its first 200 years, which was focused on ONLY building itself, Russia has been ultra focused on the same; rebuilding a more free democratic-ish Russian Country from the Communist horror it once was. And frens, that takes decades!
Don’t forget the Bolsheviks and later Communists, along with WWII, lost near 2-3 complete generations of people by executions, Gulags, and the Nazis. So the current people and their thought processes are young being led by a very very old guard trying to drop their past. And unlike most people think, if you deeply research Putin and LISTEN to his actual speeches, he’s no different than Trump in what he wants for his country. He wants to focus on Nationalism, for His People, His Country.
And by Country, Russia is certainly not racist to “Russian” people. Most uneducated people and those outside Russia’s cultural sphere think everyone there is of white European-Russian decent. No! Russia is actually made up of many cultures as it covers a massive space on Europe, Asia, and touches the Middle East. Yes the Communists attempted to culturally and religiously control everyone. But as soon as The Wall came down, that stopped almost immediately, in the context of rebuilding a prior-Communist governed torn country.
So to be REAL, Russia has needed and still needs more repairing and blooming time into a much better Nation. And they are getting there.
Just like Washington, Lincoln, Kennedy, Reagan, and now Trump, yes Putin himself wants what is BEST For His Country and His People. Just on Ukraine, we Anons know Oblama Coup’d Crimea and certain areas away from Russia in 2014. Realistically, Putin only wants back the areas that have democratically, VOTED by paper ballots, to rejoin Russia. And so there is that fight going on.
But frens, go on Rumble, go on YouTube, and watch any video on western people, especially from the UK, Australia, and the US visiting Russia right now, or over the last 5-6+ years especially. The responses are overwhelmingly positive of Russia, patriotic of their own Nation building, and their living standards are being slowly rebuilt all over the Country. And at a faster pace positively than the Communists could have ever forced! Most tourists are blown away how nice their cities are, how peaceful they are, and how FREE people feel within their country. Yes, they inforce their laws more harshly and quickly than we do now; but just 20-30 years ago, we were just as conservative and quick at whipping criminal ass!
Point is, Russia is still rebuilding itself after a devastating century. Russia is trying to move back into a democratic power nation that uses economics vs. brute force to expand its business interests for itself and its people. THAT IS what Nationalism is all about! EVERY country goes through phases of it CONSTANTLY; especially at birth or a rebirth. And Russia is in the Nationalistic rebirth stage.
Russia could, with China, just confiscate all of Europe and Asia easily. But it hasn’t, and Putin states he does not want to!! That’s because that would be Russia going backwards and not forwards, for itself.
And on China, yes they do have “possibly” very different end outcomes. But that is for another day once I complete my research process of them. And they decide how far they will or won’t go in this Cabal war.
But after the Cabal is wiped out, the US and every other Nation is going to have to do some internal Nationalistic “rebuilding”. And yes, it will take years if not decades to completely recover and us all to move forward. The Best Is Yet To Come! WWG1WGAWW.
Only thing I really would disagree with. Russia has never been and frankly I don’t think ever will be a Democratic or Republican nation. At least in the ways we in the West are traditionally and comfortably accustomed to defining such notions.
They for one thing don’t have the same Philosophical Heritage we do that spawned the enlightenment and the values that arguably created Western Society. And frankly created the conditions for the problems we are dealing with today here. And frankly I think that’s ultimately a good thing.
The Wests and frankly Americas main weakness in Modern Day in particular has been that we could suffer no challenge to what we defined as “Freedom and Liberty”. Which is why it’s been painfully easy for everyone and their brother to manipulate us. As they played with the definitions of those words.
Also part of why Woodrow Wilson also gleefully contributed to overthrowing the Tsars. As Tsarist Russia was still. On paper at least. An absolutist Monarchy. One that was rapidly modernizing. And stood to threaten the rising Supremacy of Republicanism and Democracy. If they proved capable of saving Monarchism as a political ideology.
Somewhat ironically. Prior to the Twentieth Century. We maintained closer relationships with Tsarist Russia, Imperial Japan and other more absolutist/Authoritarian Monarchies and Empires. Than we did with liberalizing Western Europe who was adopting politics closer to what we should have found appealing based on our chosen form of Government
If Ekaterina the Great didn't support and finance Voltaire et al. the West Enlightenment might have been short lived. Not to mention Peter the Great reformation
