Modern society and economy is hopelessly dependent on energy. Energy is economy and economy means jobs and money. Low energy cucks will not make it, I am sorry. So please, is supporting Khokhlostan by depriving ourselves of energy self sabotage? Only a Russophobe believes that.
So in Czechia, you can give a preferential vote to a candidate on a ballot during elections…
And former Minister of Foreign Affairs, Jan Lipavský, who was campaigning in Prague got over 62 thousand such votes. That’s a sizable provincial town here in Czechia. Something is seriously wrong with people in Prague. I am glad I don’t live there. Countryside, fresh air, healthier mind.
Under this mother fucker, Russian citizens could not get a visa in the Czech embassy. In 2022, Lipavský claimed that EU nations should adopt an EU-wide ban would be great as a part of a sanctions package. Lipavský later complained that EU nations let in too many Russian tourists. 👌😆
Nobody apparently listens to Lipavský in the EU or anywhere and treats his initiatives seriously. I have met dozens of Russians in my favorite holiday spot in Italy. Czechia has lost money by not letting in Russian tourists, and there are many destinations in the World besides Czechia. I hope the new government reverses this stupidity.
Some Westerners call for the break of Russia and China into smaller states. Divide and conquer kind of bullshit. But this flight of fancy is informed by the second half of the twentieth century that was the formative period for many people promoting it, and to their children too…
This discourse steams of out the loss of oversees empires by the West European countries and the break up of the USSR. There is a conspiracy theories that claim that the demise of Communism in Eastern Europe, and decolonization of the British Empire were very much elite decisions. Basically a betrayal of ideals. In my opinion, the British would have been kicked out of India eventually, and the USSR was also quite unsustainable.
The problem these people have is that Russia and China have majority core populations and this makes them national states of the Russians and the Han. I don’t want to dig out statistics for China right now but in Russia, 70% of the people are ethnic Russians and around 10% do not want to define their ethnicity. They are likely mixed or don’t see themselves as belonging to any ethnic group. The Russian ethnicity was in the minority in the USSR at the time of this break up, and the British Empire’s colonies always had non-Anglo-Saxon minority in its oversees colonies, apart from settler states in Australia and Canada.
People are still sharing the above ridiculous map, where most subjects of the “former” RF have the official language Russian, some with a Latin script (LOL). I don’t want to say Russian cannot be written in the Latin script but Cyrillic has been specifically made for Russian historically. It is like making the Greeks or Koreans write in Latin. Their respective scripts fit their languages perfectly, and are part of their culture. Also, those Siberian subjects 27, 30, are sparsely populated patchworks of different ethnic groups, nothing that could become viable nation states.
Ukrops have adopted post-colonial victim mentality from critical theory that views the Russians as imperialist oppressors, and paints Ukraine as the perpetual victim of the Moskali. This framework fits well into the already well established culture of grievance in Ukraine that goes back a long way, perhaps to a book name Istoria Rusov which pre-dates the emergence of the Ukrainian national idea by several decades. It is therefore not very hard to view themselves as agents of Russian decolonization.
Russian intelligence allegedly said that the EU wants a regime change in Hungary, which led to the above. Pro-Globohomo forces are increasingly trying to make the election contest between them and Putin. The Russophobia card is played in Czech pre-election campaign as well. The ruling coalition
Ukrs love talking about somebody else’s history as long as it isn’t Russian.
The Russians conquered this land and established cities. They also settled the ancestors of today’s Ukrainians there. The Russian Empire was instrumental in the territorial creation of Ukraine. And comrade Lenin gave Odessa to Ukraine. The Russian Empire and Lenin are both reviled by Ukrainian Nazis.
Is this Duc Richelieu covered?
Duc Richelieu the governor of Odessa dressed in vyshyvanka is maximum cringe.
The Czech foreign minister literally complains that the number of Russian tourists is on the rise, while Ukraine is bleeding. He says that the Czech embassy does not give tourist visas to the Russians, and he adds that Russian tourists are a security danger.
I work in tourism, and provide accommodation to travelers. And I ask Russians where they get visas. I was told Italy is generous. So imagine if a Russian with means travels to say Milan and then enters Czechia by land? Can happen, does happen. 😆👌
Russophobes conflate Soviet bolshevism with contemporary Russia. Quite shamelessly. This is why I never criticize Soviet nostalgia anymore. The USSR defeated the Nazis, fucked over the hyenas (Poles), sent man to space, and built nuclear reactors…
Honestly guys, contemporary EU cannot build a single nuclear reactor. Putin literally resurrected the nuclear industry. The EU offers us motherfucking Green Deal, and a migration pact. The young can’t even afford an apartment, and don’t have kids. This wasn’t a problem in the Bolshevik ruled Czechoslovakia. I am the Husák generation, a strong cohort. The current cohort will be knowns as late capitalism generation and it will be very small. Actually, have you seen your bill after going to the shops?
I personally don’t know any people that want Russian rule. Jürgen has created a literal strawman. I personally don’t want no Russian rule, and I can assure you the Russians don’t wanna rule this place, they are laughing at our cost of living.
Russophobes like to take things out of context. The above is Český Krumlov and the majority of the population of the town were ethnic Germans before the war. The latter were ethnically cleansed. Then the Bolsheviks established totalitarian rule in 1948. In their system private ownership was nonexistent and the people would not rebuild houses that aren’t theirs, let the owner, the state rebuild the houses. Of course the state never did anything. This is more about government control than any Russian rule. The Russians suffered the same under Bolshevism.
Also Český Krumlov is a tourist town. The surrounding I call a land of dead villages. The Germans were driven out and their settlements never recovered afterwards, not even with capitalism returning.
The prime minister of Czechia draws out the Russophobia card before elections.
He says that we have shed our dependence on Russia. He means energy dependence. But our energy bills are higher and business and households are suffering. The election will be a contest between east and west, implying that his opponents are pro-Russian or alternatively pro-Chinese.
Russia thinks within the logic of imperial and great power politics according to which, countries that are great powers set the rules. The other countries are here to obey and subordinate themselves to the rules set by great powers. If we aren’t in tune with such a philosophy, we should view Russia as a threat.
-Petr Pavel, president of Czechia.
The problem with this statement is that the EU and the US have basically the same attitude and Czechia does their bidding.
Whenever I strike a discussion on X with fincucks, they tell me how their country is fine having blocked itself from trade with Russia over Ukraine. The Finns have a sense of superiority over the Russians, they think they can manage.
But in reality, the consequences of their divorce with Russia are far reaching. Tourism, air travel, timber industry and other areas have suffered a serious blow.
Below are SCO and BRICS Insight videos, give the guy a sub, it is worth it. He has done his research into the topic. All I can say is Russophobia is costly.
So, Westoids wanna Balkanize Russia and even China to create a set of weak and easily manipulable states with limited sovereignty, whose economy is completely controlled by Western corporations. Siberian Africa or Yellow Africa in the East. Nothing against Africa, Africa also needs to show Westoids the finger.
Meanwhile, the same people call for the European Union to integrate more. Because apparently, if we are together then we will be more respected, and have more influence. Therefore, what is good for me, ain’t good for thee. But Russia is also much more ethnically homogeneous than the EU. 70-80% of Russian population are Russians or ethnically indefinite. This makes Russia a national state of the Russians and carving it out into little Ukraines and Kazakhstans would be a problematic task.
But some can still dream, they can make up fake flags, fake identities, fake languages, they can create little Ukraines and Kyrgyzstans out of Russia, they can start writing Russian in the Latin script. If you think I am joking, I am not, I am only quoting what I have read and heard online over the years. But big Russia builds nuclear reactors and flys into space, what good for the advancement of humanity ever came from independent Ukraine or Kazakhstan? The Westoids wanna Balkanize their competitors to remain the only civilization that pulls technological and economic progress and thus indispensable and maintaining its hegemony. But competition is better isn’t it?
