    Ah, the classics of nationalist mythology! I think we’re still going through that in capitalist Russia, although there’s the tiny difficulty of coping with Soviet past. Kinda hard to bash the ebil commies while chest thumping about being the first to space, you know?

      At least you Russians did something in 1925-1980s to feel proud of , we didn’t do anything still out nationalists think we are no.1 . And we constantly bash China for not having “democracy” . Yes a democracy where most of politicians are gang members did murders , rape one way or the other. Your libs are the worst , they would sell their mother for western democracy not much different than Indian libs but at least we have some sense of anti west feelings

          that’s definitely an achievement after failing 2 times but remember it has been done when 30-50 percent of our people live in poverty . https://scroll.in/article/1048475/how-many-people-live-below-the-poverty-line-in-india-it-could-be-34-million-or-373-million , simply our middle class has shrunk after Modi’s privatization and crony capitalism . The foundation of our space research was led by Nehru who was a pro Soviet guy and founder of Non Aligned movement, BJP where as is busy with all sorts of superstitions and what not.

            Her face and arms began to swell.

            (and Whitey’s on the Moon)

            I can’t pay no doctor bill.

            (but Whitey’s on the Moon)

            Ten years from now I’ll be paying still.
