Classical German and Russian culture are so similar>classical music>lots of important novelists and philosophers>high appreceation for the arts and a deep sophisticated cultureWhy did they fight bros? Literally the greatest tragedy of human civilization
>>220407535Nicholas II was 127/128th German. Peter the Great forcefully westernized the upper echelons of Russian society and imported tons of German nobility. Euler spent half his life in St Petersburg for example. There are zero real similarities between German and actual Russian cultures. What you call "classical" Russian culture is an artificial construct.
>>220407535>Russian philosophers Lol
>>220407535>Classical German and Russian culture are so similarbecause russian nobility (and the people around them who shaped culture) at that time either was german or larped as german
>>220407535What you're talking about here is woke globohomo woke 1.0 aka westphalianism in which rising economic coordination and early IR led to a cultural convergence in Europe and North America. Now we're in a scenario where Russia (and the US) have regressed to a early modern imperialism and mercantilism, to the detriment of their nation as well as the world.
>>220407656There were French, Swedes, Poles, etc too.
>>220407616>>220407656your posts seem to disagree with each other. Its clear to me as a foreigner that there are so many similarites between the cultures, apparently even Hitler was a fan of classical Russian composers. I'm sure that the divide and and differences between the cultures are many but in things like arts, classical music, literature and other things that shaped your national identity, you guys are (or used to be) very similar
>>220407800No, they do not. Look up the "Russian" who discovered Antarctica. Fabian Gottlieb von Bellingshausen. Empress Catherine the Great was 100% German and spoke Russian with an accent her whole life.
>>220407641Poles are so annoying, no need to antagonize Russians all the time bro
>>220407656>>220407765Oh, and Dutch and Danes too, but mostly imported for engineering and science, not nobility positions. Like Andrew Vinius.
>>220407656>larped as germanthey larped as french, but many of them were also "anti-westernizers"
>>220407841Sorry, I think I misunderstood your post. So correct me if I'm wrong but your implying that classical Russian culture is essentially German culture?
>>220407849He's gonna call you an Ivan on a VPN now and talk about how you lost the war
>>220407841>Germans fuck horses
>>220407535Germans are Slavic in denial
>>220407535>classical music>lots of important novelists and philosophers>high appreceation for the arts and a deep sophisticated cultureThat's most of Europe
>>220408697Not Romania
>>220407535>Russian philosophers
>>220407893Basically yes. It’s Sankt Petersburg, not Svyatoy Petrograd o algo for a reason.

>>220407641>>220409610>>220409714?Russia has produced some of the best writers in history, works by Dosto and Tolstoy are on the level of philosophy despite being fiction. Russian writers are far more famous than German or Polish oneshttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Russian_philosophers

>>220411764Getting angsty vibes from a book is not on the same level as proving a philosophical statement.
>>220411894>Had wives>had childrenSo much less of a loser than Neitzche then. Also don't see how that's relevant to his writing kek.Filtered>>220411993They're obviously much deeper than that, like treatises on the human condition.
