Seriously, what happened to Russia?They used to be a real proper nation with science and shit and space stations and nuclear reactors, how did they descend to the level of Brazil? How did they become so utter shit?
>>540674506Name 1 nation that hasn't become utter shit?
>>540674751Kazakhstan
>>540674506The industry was diversified between republics to create engineering workplaces. When you make a plane you so steelwork in Kazachstan, engine in Ukraine, electronics in baltics and so on, and assemble in Kirgizstan. Unfortunately nobody thought about it during the break up. So after 10 years of economic advisory drop US in 90s that led to two defaults and criminalprivatisation, Russia started from literally zero.
>>540674506faggots are so pathetic that all globohomo had to do is tell its writers to talk shit about Russia, and here we are with millions of retards hating Russia, because globohomo told them to hate Russia
>>540674849Went to shit after the fall of the USSR. Dumbass.
>>540674863Imagine honestly listening to the "advice" of your fucking geopolitical enemies. Fucking retards. Communism really ruined their brains and ability to think. It creates the perfect NPC.
>>540675028Soviet people were actually very naive, absolutely not used to view the world as a market. For example it was considered a shame to sell something with a margin, speculating was a crime and socially despised. Concepts like marketing or advertisements are completely unknown.

>>540674506They used to be better in lying.
>>540675222I've heard they practically only had STEM in school. No real education about culture or humanities. I guess it makes sense tho, since communism doesn't care about culture. The result is morons like Gorbachev and Yeltsin.
Even Soviet slogans were more soulful than nu Russian ones

>>540675570>culture and humanitieslike what? There were all kind of faculties. The problem was that everything was full of bureaucracy that consumed alot of work. Nowdays it is called “compliance” in the west. Even if you are writing your thesis on organic chemistry you need a chapter there how it benefits marxism leninism. Nobody took it seriously and eveeyone made fun, but everyone did, because it was required. It is similar to sustainability now in EU. Guess what kind of thing you need to put in the scenario to get the EU grant for a movie? The same was in USSR but probably in a more severe form.
they couldn't steal tech anymore. look at their weapons in ukraine.they're literally bought from aliexpress and temu.
>>540675570Retard, every course was full of political propaganda
>>540674506 All the smart people either emigrated or died. So there was nobody to pass on knowledge to the next generation. It’s kinda like how quality of coins and statues declined in the Roman Empire after the crisis of the 3rd Century. A lot of the craftsmen died without teaching new craftsmen
>>540676481obviously, because there were like 20 beurocrats with alot of free time for one professor, and you know how they like to regulate things they don’t understand
>>540674751China
>>540674506Have you heard about perestroika and the dissolution of the Soviet Union? Have you ever opened a history book at all?
>>540674506Also, nuclear reactors is one of the few technologies that Russia (still) leads the world in
