Кем себя видят россиянеУспех для россиян - это Золушка (для женщин) и Емеля-дурак (для мужчин). Отсутствие классовой солидарности и самопожертвования (жлоб). Лучшая историческая эпоха - при Путине. Ничтожная доля либералов и малая - европейцев. Мегаполис как оплот консерватизма. Примерно так выглядит российское общество и его мечты. 

Anybody can see the RussiansSuccess for the Russians - is Cinderella (for women) and Emelya-durak (for men). The lack of class solidarity and self-sacrifice (redneck). The best history under Putin. A tiny percentage of liberals and small Europeans. The metropolis as a Bastion of conservatism. Looks like Russian society and his dreams.
