philosophy

I disagree. This is exactly why I don't like Russians – their constant arrogance! "We are so special, we are unique" – but they don't actually amount to anything.
Why do they always try to appear special? It's incomprehensible...

It's perfectly understandable... we don't try to appear special... we just love ourselves – healthy egoism, in my opinion, is not a bad thing at all!!!! Besides, you are also RUSSIAN... what are YOU trying to appear as????? ;) Have you ever thought about it??? And in general, why do they not amount to anything??? They actually do... We have VERY smart, open-minded, not uptight, and not callous people... BE PROUD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"Yes, the officials... yes, they steal... But when, exactly, have they NOT stolen from us???? And yet we are still alive and well! "

It's just that Russians treat themselves so disrespectfully. In other countries, they don't steal. But in ours, they steal, have stolen, and will continue to steal – that's right! It's always been that way, why change it?

This is the attitude of someone who doesn't think.

Someone who thinks... and quite well!!! Besides, everyone steals... it's just that we have a little more of it. It's a mentality. Also, the country consists not only of officials... and are all ordinary people bad too, do they not respect each other, and is the whole country just thieves??? No, I don't think so... in general, the main thing is to love... When you love, the flaws are not so important. When you love your country, your people, you don't notice such little things.... And you – you just don't love....... Maybe that's right for you – but it's NOT right for me. ;)
