„Genug von unserer schrecklichen Vergangenheit. Reden wir über unsere schreckliche Zukunft“, fasst der russische Blogger Maxim Kalaschnikow seine Einschätzung der Auswirkungen der letzten drei Jahre auf die Zukunft Russlands zusammen.

and o yeah, Happy New everyone!

Yeah my guess is that too.. that russia is gonna have a real big problems after they got beaten in ukraine.
I cant wait to hear all the cries coming from mordor for years and years to come…

wow. yet wordings like „..we see the development of this systemic crisis even if..“ could be fsb talking, trying to get ahead of inevitable loss of control. Nevermind, he seems spot on in his prediction.

Ukraine keep up the pressure, blyatistan starts cracking.

What is he referencing with the 14 million russians lost. Is that how many left the country?

he is reasonable, so no russian will take him seriously

Should talk about how many lives were lost thanks to the URSS.

Always sad to hear about the suicide of such a brave soul.

brave of him to speak like that…stay away from windows….

Surprisingly clear assessment of the situation. But he leaves out the one anchor that is left for putin’s Russia. If the west won’t take the raw materials, China will. Then the prospect is, that everything east of the urals will get under huge Chinese influence. That’s a fact the Russians can’t be told yet, because it’s their worst nightmare.

Fuck Russia’s aggression since 2008 and especially the „SMO“ in Ukraine. This guy will get stomped on for being Russian. I understand that. He deserves some of it for not acknowledging that Putin has been ruler for the vast majority of the time that „the rise of lawlessness“ occurred (and for many other omissions).

But going off the subtitles, it does much to explain how Russia got to this point. I don’t know what the future holds for Russia, but it doesn’t look bright, and this guy enumerates upon that.

Russia does resemble a pre-failed state. Without resolving- or trying to resolve- the issues that caused this failure, a nuclear-capable Russia 3.0 is a frightening thought. (Remember Germany 3.0.)

That being said, Russia fighting Russia seems like a better use of Russia’s resources.

As long as Putin has a death grip on the country, it will never progress. It will forever be owned by oligarchs who keep him in power and they care nothing about the people.

I don’t see how Russia benefits from this ‘SMO.’ Lucky for them they have Trump as an ally. Putin’s literal bitch

I hope the guy does not live in Russia or, in any case, I recommend him to stay away from windows, stairs, high floors, drinks of any kind other than tap-water.

Russia really is the greatest failure of a project for a country, of all time.

If I, hell, if any reasonably smart and long-sighted individual with just basic smarts could’ve gotten the reins and resources that Russia has they could’ve done so much good. But no, it all has to fall onto the hands of one stupid ass motherfucking ass-muncher.

With all the natural riches, land and population, Russia could have been the worlds first hyperpower. But instead it cannot even be considered a superpower at its current state. All smart people are either dead, or left the country which leads to a massive brain drain causing the leaders of the current Russia to be dumber and dumber in the future.

This dude has canards built into his head…

It’s good to see that some Russians have common sense and a realistic outlook on this current fiasco.

What is the total acceleration of a body of cc 120 kg from a height of twenty stories, on a windless day, before it hits the ground

It’s refreshing to hear a Putin supporter actually speak almost the truth, RIP matey

Someone should remind him that everything is going according to plan.

He is very close to a key point. Russia never really developed its economy, and with Putin at the helm for over 20 years, this is very much also his fault.

To be fair, it isn’t easy to build an advanced economy, but from the outside, it looks like very little effort was even made.

Putin was content to just suck down oil and gas money, like a third world dictator…oh, because he is one.

And here’s the worst part. Russia seems to pride itself on its ability to endure hard times. Yet it won’t do the hard work of actually building itself.
