    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."

    Some friends of mine are Russians (not Volksdeutsche). Great conversations, great food, and some of the females are real eyecatchers "bozhe moy" .

    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...

    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 ...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!

    You have zero debating skills and dont even know how to structure a debate

    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.

    I don't think I've ever called you a DIY sauna or a little scooter.

    So the people who aren't on board with reducing an ancient civilization and nuclear great power to cartoon Putin are the brainwashed ones. That's rich.

    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.

    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.

    I think this has been mentioned many, many times by many people.

    What surprises me is that sabang is part of this bizarre Skidmark/Klondyke/OhOh/sabang group.

    Yes and yes. He's clearly an intelligent bloke and doesn't fall into the stupid/contrary/brainwashed categories you can usually assign to this ilk.

    He does love a strong-arm dictator though.

    This is where your ilk is wrong about Russia. Russia does not have anything like the media that China has. There is openly anti Putin newspapers in Moscow ( The Moscow Times) Vladimir Pozner , the guy who did a show with Phil Donehue in the US in the 80's , has an interview show on Russia's main Channel One TV station. It is commonly known that Pozner doesn't like Putin.

    Russia basically has an open media. China clearly does not. But this Navalny affair gives people the impression that Navalny is the only person in Russia that criticizes Putin. It is a sham.

    The Economist has an anti Putin Russian language TV show in Russia. And Russia has RT in the US. The battle is in the open.

    Russia learned a lesson in the USSR times. It's better to have the battle in the open. China still does it the old way. Even pro Xi personalities get sensored.
