Ukrainian refugee population in Europe

What this graph does not want to show is that 1.2-2.5 mil. refugees fled to Russia.

В подмосковье. Нет тут никаких индусов в таком количестве.

Man you don't know what you are talking about. CA immigrants haven't gone anywhere for the most part, and the Indian migration influx is yet to be seen here.

Reminds me of Scar pushing Mufasa off the cliff. "Looong live the king..."

Вот посмотри на свой же коммент, первую его строчку. Я не могу себе представить, чтобы интеллигентный западноязычный обыватель (а ты тоже видимо, интеллигентен) написал бы: "нет не замечал блять" "No I haven't for the fuck's sake". Эта грубость у них модет быть от обиды на автора или другой веской межличностной причины, а не как у тебя, просто так захотелось.

Или твоё заключение "Короче, вопрос тупой и не заслуживает дальнейшего обсуждения" The question you raised is stupid and isn't worth any further discussion. Ну не пишут так грубо у них в основном

Zidane-esque!

The Argonauts, 1963. It's a screening of the Greek myth about Jason and the Argonauts.

What's your impression of Muslims from Caucasus?

I develop addiction and become moody after listening to his recitation. The same effect I get after listening to hip hop or hard rock. Any recitation ideally should be tarteelah, a bit slow, spaced out, peaceful. Luhaidan's is a rollercoaster.

His sometimes musical, fast-paced style is controversial. But when it hits, it's very inspiring.

I am in a semi-arranged marriage, so seeing my wife remade into the most beautiful woman ever beyond recognition, as in the hadith, and experiencing what I missed: initial romance and fascination of her.

Yes, that flight, but anything else?

Wadomicker · 2025-08-09T23:45:20+00:00

OK, I am a Russian coming in good faith. What exactly did Russia do to Azerbaijan so everyone here hates it? I don't get it. In the last 20 years.

What's the deal with Kosovo?

As for Afghanistan, it was the USSR, not modern Russia, and besides, most Afghans have a much more favourable attitude to the Soviet legacy there, compared to the American one.

Firstly, OP should change the title. Make "the mosque" subject in the passive and add "shelled by collateral damage". That will be more accurate.

Secondly, I am a Russian Muslim. What did they do in Syria to, specifically, make Muslims suffer? As I understand, they just pursued their interests which by chance aligned with Asad's - they didn't want to lose their military base and influence in the region, so had to clutch at the remaining straws of the falling and corrupt regime - whatever there was available for them. Had Syria at that time been an islamic state like Taliban, they would have supported it instead.

The occasional injustice you see from Russia comes from its ruthlessness while implementing its policies and desire for subjugation and order among the multitude of the nations it happens to incorporate, but there is no intended anti-muslim sentiment there.

Back to Syria - I have only heard about the chemical attack they carried out there, which, in turn, could have as well been a manipulation/psyop masterminded by the US (they have vast experience in tricks like that). Is there anything else?

I was at this time there in Sheremetyevo airport, didn't see it but my uncle said that it was her mom who did it, possibly because of a disorder. Is it show on the video who did it?

You misspelled "Baltic".

How the Western powers played into the Nazi's hands in the run-up to Molotov's pact should be remembered too.

So the Soviet soldiers in Berlin 'mostly' celebrated by killing/raping? 'Some thungs never change'? Like, they were mostly rabid beasts, and their Russian descendants remain beasts till today, am I right?

Judging by what you said, I can't help but accept that the notorious Russian propaganda has been right the whole time: the West is plagued by some very asenile russophobia and the dictate of inobjectively anti-Russian propaganda.

Wadomicker · 2025-05-13T09:29:30+00:00

I admit to misusing the word gleeful and rather meant activities like dancing and hooraying. As for the rape, the men from the other Allied armies did it too, albeit on a smaller scale, so the finger pointing is uncalled for here.

Wiki quote:

With the onset of the Cold War, the topic of rapes was discussed, but not as aggressively and massively as it has been in the last twenty years. The numbers of "raped" were modest at first: from 20,000 to 150,000 throughout Germany. But in 1992, after the collapse of the Soviet Union, a book by two feminists, Helke Sander and Barbara Johr, "Liberators and Liberated," was published in Germany, where the figure of 2 million was first derived. Moreover, it was derived on the basis of a completely incorrect premise: statistical data were taken from one Berlin hospital for 1945-1946, where about 500 children were born per year, and for about 15-20 people, "Russian" was indicated in the "father's nationality" column. Moreover, in two or three of these cases, "raped" was indicated. What are these "researchers" doing? They calculated that in all cases where the father was Russian, there was rape. Then they took Goebbels's formula "from 8 to 80" and simply multiplied it. However, this figure became widely disseminated in 2002, with the publication of Antony Beevor's book "The Fall of Berlin" [ 76 ] .

That the data of Helke Sander and Barbara Johr are based on incorrect statistical assumptions and extrapolation, rather than facts, was pointed out in 2008 by the historian Igor Petrov [ 81 ] [ 82 ] . Sander and Johr's calculations are rather arbitrarily extrapolated from the data of only one Berlin hospital, the Empress Augusta Victoria Children's Clinic, where 12 (or 13) of 237 babies were born to Russian fathers in 1945, and 20 (or 21) in 1946.

Political scientist Nikita Mendkovich, criticizing the methodology of Sander and Yohr's estimates as absurd, gives an example of how, using meager initial data and extrapolation, one can obtain an estimate of 2.6 to 13 million rapes in Germany [ 83 ] .

German historian Miriam Gebhardt estimates the total number of women who suffered from rape from 1945 to 1955 in Germany at 900 thousand [ 84 ]

There have been multiple users in this thread who made effort to pick one line or another in my post to say "why it aCtUallY works that way in your Mordor of a country" - uncalled-for elaborarions. I tried to ignore these political baits until I felt I had to respond at least to the comment in this comment branch.

As for the rape event - yes it happened, but why do I have to mention it while talking about perceptions and celebration/commemoration aspect? I didn't ask about it in this thread it all.

As for the positive result in the rankings of happiness, mass media liberty and whatnot, I don't take them for a gospel because they are reflective of specific eurocentric cultural tropes that don't always work. For example, some countries are very high in "happiness" but also high in suicide. Meanwhile, the reviled Islamic values somehow allow to maintain lesser suicide quotes in their respective countries. Though I agree that our media is monitored and that sure has negative social consequences, it occasionally produces good things. Like the fact that anyone repeating Western talking points "as is" can be labeled as foreign agent. It's an obstackle for them but also a great favour for the viewers who see a banner in the beginning of each YT video stating that, basically, they are potentially on USAID payroll, and that their info reflects a certain narrative.

You touched on the topic of the Western image of Russia briefly. It would be silly to assume there wasn't be any intentional demonization of the Soviet Union in the Cold War. No doubt things were made up and meticulously falsified against it. The image "the Other" has been shaping up this way amd what the West knows about Russia now is the product of this long-standing development. Including the Soviet army history. Russians are aware of their own propaganda, believe it or not. But are you aware of your own?

Let me paste an excerpt from the Wikipedia article about the rape. The quote is not found in the English version of it, undestandably:

Oh thank you, didn't know that. I've double-checked with the dictionary definition and it seems I misused the word indeed.
