Congratulations. You just said the dumbest thing that could possibly have been said on this topic.
The data is what determines where Russia should or shouldnt be. You utterly brainless fool.

Russia has the same GDP/PPP as Krautistan. The same GDP as California and Texas combined. Of course Russia has a ways to go per capita wise.
Russia is the second most immigrated to country in the world. But Herman the vermin says none of the data matters. Muh russia isn't where its supposed to be. What an idiot
And where are most of the immigrants coming from? Here's something you love, a C&P:
"As of June 2019, there are 10.13 million foreigners residing in the Russian Federation (up from 9.63 million in 2018 and 9.96 million in 2017), with the vast majority (85%) being citizens of CIS countries. Central Asians make up the most numerous group, followed by Ukrainian citizens. Temporary migration from Azerbaijan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan increased after a marked decline in 2015-2016. Two countries—Moldova and Ukraine—have steadily demonstrated a decrease in the number of migrants."
They're hardly flocking in from London, Paris and LA, are they?
And that's because everyone knows it's a corrupt, lawless shithole, which is why most Russians can't wait to get out of there to the west.
Oh what a shithole Russia is

:rolleyes: Yeah, because real life for the majority of the Russian population is spent on holiday in Sochi or taking pictures of Red Square, you moronic twat.
As we all know anyway, you're all mouth and wouldn't dream of giving up your comfortable middle class life in Canada for a dingy apartment in some grey Moscow tower block.
You'd be on the phone crying to mum and dad with your tail between your legs in no time.
What are you challenging ? You mad cretin

You wouldn't have the bollocks because you know full well which side your bread is buttered on.
And a senior Iraqi General with him. Remind me never to invite the US to my Home, the party would bomb.Quote:
The US killed Baghdadi.
:smileylaughing:
Julian Assange is in a maximum security prison right now for........................reporting on the Iraq war.
Julian Paul Assange (/əˈsɑːnʒ/;[4] born 3 July 1971) is an Australian editor, publisher, and activist who founded WikiLeaks in 2006. WikiLeaks came to international attention in 2010 when it published a series of leaks provided by U.S. Army intelligence analyst Chelsea Manning. These leaks included the Baghdad airstrike Collateral Murder video (April 2010),[5][6] the Afghanistan war logs (July 2010), the Iraq war logs (October 2010), and Cablegate (November 2010). After the 2010 leaks, the United States government launched a criminal investigation into WikiLeaks.[7]
Except he isn't in a maximum security prison for reporting on the Iraq War. There are thousands of reporters who covered the Iraq War and didn't end up in prison, and why would they whereas Assange is?
Because they didn't steal and publish state secrets would be the main reason, you fucking clown.
Geez, a day at the beach and Skidmark goes full retard at every post . . .
Not possible, Skidmark - that honour is yours, even booked for the future
Yea, we had this discussion before and Skidmark and Loondyke were so full of praise about everyone flocking to Russia . . . yet neither would live there
Well, you are simple. That's simple.
Again, stick to hookers and selling drugs on the darl web . . . at least you're vaguely amusing. Not what you write, rather what a weak mind finds that fulfilling
Ah yes. Russia's GDP is smaller than the US's. Its just not as small as Americans are continually brainwashed into believing. The brainwash says that Russia's GDP is 1.5 trillion or something. Which would put it 11th or 12th in the world. Russia is a non dollar economy, so you cant use nominal GDP to measure it. You will only get Russia's exports.
But we can verify that this is bullshit by looking at other economic data.
Military spending 4th
Forex reserves 5th
Gold reserves 5th
Oil consumption 5th
# of billionaires 4th Forbes Top 10 Billionaire Cities - Moscow Beats New York Again
Remittances 4th
PPP GDP says 6th
Nominal GDP says 12th
So its pretty easy to see which number is the right one. Not hard to see
I'm challenging an IMBECILE that can't google, read and probably not even write. Now if you don't want to make a complete fool of yourself sit down, do your homework, come back to me and apologize, and we can continue.
I will give you a small hint since I'm a good teacher:
1.be careful what you read at Wikipedia
2.get your stats from real and not predicted source. DOUBLE CHECK!!!
3. here comes the hardest part for you :rolleyes:...use common sense
4. be real and don't get influenced by national feelings or heritage. Running around like an American claiming "We are the greatest,strongest, bless us", will only blind you.
Good Luck! You got 24 hours!
Klondyke and Deeks sure must be happy that skidmark is here to make them not look the most retarded posters on TD.
You do so much wondering you sozzled old Commie. How do you even manage to tie your shoelaces when life is obviously such a challenge for you?
P.S. The answer to your question is that it it will be for lower end Russian-speaking tourists. Happy to help even though, as ever, I have no idea what your point is.
The best tenants I ever had in Pattaya were a Russian/ Lithuanian couple actually. No idea if they thought Vlad was dangerous though.
Everything is relative, Sabang. Especially when you're using words like "the best" and "Pattaya." :)
What a wonderful world of simpletons where anything can be argue by e.g. a moronic twat, Commie, vodka, D-I-Y sauna (just out of it), little scooter (parked next to sauna) - to name a few...
You have zero debating skills and dont even know how to structure a debate
https://teakdoor.com/images/imported/2021/01/34.gif
Imagine having klondick as a neighbour on one side, and skidmark on the other. Then deeks knocks on your door in a cheap suit asking you if you have heard the latest about the baby jebus.
I don't think Klongdick is stupid though. I think he's just been brainwashed (and maybe addled by vodka) to the point where there is no reason at all to try to engage him in a reasonable conversation. Oh Oh is the same, and they're both (rightfully) laughing stocks on here because of their absolute indoctrination.

Wondering why all shops in Pattaya, Phuket, etc, have their sideboards written in Russian Language? (perhaps for Martians?)
Wondering which one of the 2 quotes indicates a "brainwashing" (and "addling by vodka")...
I think Putin is a danger to several of our posters mental health. Why the obsession? Russia poses no credible threat to either the US or Europe (it's best export market and largest foreign investor), and Putin is politically very secure in Russia- so why bang your heads against a brick wall? No amount of negative press from the western media will change that- in fact it will probably strengthen his grip on power.
Save your paranoia for Xi, and China. Maybe also for belligerent US foreign policy.
https://teakdoor.com/images/imported/2021/01/36.gif
No, Skidmark . . . you really didn't just say that . . .
Stop right there . . . stop. No need to continue the nightmare
Nothing 'maybe' about it.

:smileylaughing:
(the humourless dolt will probably be reporting me the moment he wakes up BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT WE COULD DO IN THE GOOD OLD DAYS OF BREZHNEV)
The thing is, Sabang, is that we will criticise western foreign policy and our own governments at will (be that the UK, US, NZ, Oz, Germany etc) whereas certain posters would never dream of criticising Xi and Putin, so your post reeks of hypocrisy.
And it's those one-eyed inculcated posters we're here to ridicule and snigger at while highlighting the abhorrent ways of their despots at every turn.
Long may it continue.
