For all this Gorbie received Nobel Peace Price and Eltsin is mostly remembered as whacky drunkard.

- Instead of the “Second World War” they use the name “Great Patriotic War”, which spans from June 22nd, 1941 (German invasion of USSR) and till May 9th, 1945 (defeat of Germany). From their point of view, the whole war was about Germany invading USSR. Russians don’t care or in many cases know that Europe was at war with Hitler since 1939 or that the war with Japan didn’t end until August.

- “USSR won the WW2/Great Patriotic War”. Russians are convinced that the USSR won against Germany alone, and the West was cowardly hiding behind the backs of Soviet soldiers until the great victory of the USSR became clear, at which point the West hurried to intervene.

- Jews are considered money-hungry creatures who don’t stop at anything to get richer. In particular, Jews disbanded the USSR and then proceeded to rob the population of its money and assets under the disguise of democratic reforms, which is why Russia suffered so greatly till the end of 90′s. An average Russian will tell you that all the oligarchs are Jewish (and secretly Zionist). But if you accuse a Russian of antisemitism, he will be insulted – because he personally knows “this one particular good Jew that is not like the rest of them”. Of course, this kind of antisemitism is not unique to Russia – you will also find it in many other places, but in Russia it is very widespread.

- USA and EU are considered imperialist regimes who maintain their world dominance by brutal intervention into weaker countries (e.g. invasion of Iraq) and abuse of political power (e.g. sanctions on Iran and now on Russia). Russia is pictured as the only hope of the oppressed peoples of the planet to have any opposition to that axis of evil. That is what Russia’s foreign minister Lavrov means when he brags about “unipolar vs multi-polar world”. Average Russians use a special derogatory word to denote an American – “pendos”. The word is as disdainful and hateful as the derogatory terms they use for Jews and Ukrainians.

Now, to asnwer your question. WarGaming is mentally a Russian company, never mind the fact that their headquarters are in Belorussia. The reason for that is that Belorussia is the last untouched piece of USSR – yes, not even Russia has kept the same economic and political system, but Belorussia did. And, just like USSR, Belorussia is centered on the Russian culture and language. It sounds weird, but it’s true. Both Russian and Belorussian are official languages in Belorussia, but Belorussian is suppressed, being viewed as the instrument of nationalistic opposition to the one-party regime.

As any Russian company at heart, WG is deeply nationalistic and holds many of the same prejudices and views as the general Russian public. Of course, they smooth it for the European market, but some leaking of their true mindset is inevitable. This is exactly what you’re witnessing.

Still, it doesn’t cancel what I said before.

All I had to do is put USA! in (I am not a fucking ‘murikan) and USA hate came out. Everyone automatically assumed that assholes can only be from USA. Guess what? Fucking Europeans are pathetic. United in their hate toward others, they completely ignore their own failings. Worthless.

All I had to do is say that Czech republic is worthless and suddenly you shits are all up in arms. But Silentstalker calling Russians terrorists, hey that’s ok, right? Coz it’s his blog and he can write whatever he wants. The duplicity of European commenters on this blog is fucking sickening. Instead of Wot news, THE ONLY thing this blog was good for, we now get heavy-handed, very personal political commentary. And I know why he does it, controversy generates emotion, emotion generate traffic. He doesn’t have to please everyone, just the people who are agreeing with him, and they will be his staunch supporters.

Fucking pathetic.

Couldn’t care if he bans me. I would read his blog for WoT, but I really REALLY want to insult you shits with your politics. If I wanted such quality discussion, I would go find an outhouse somewhere and dive deep.
