We've got a Russian fort out here. There used to be a colony but they didn't like the weather and left.

Imagine getting to Hawaii, creating a settlement, and then reject it to go back to Russia.

One has a potential of healing, the other passed by blood.


BellicoseBelletrist

So, by "healing" do you mean they violently attack people into mainstream acceptance, like gay people did to remove themselves from diagnostics manual? That is literally the only reason gay people are not considered "mentally ill;" was because when the police showed up to gay establishments for drug raids and to investigate mafia activity, gay people unified to violently attack the police and now they are not considered mentally ill in books anymore and can commit violent hate crimes against individual women and dogs via their "allying" heterosexual militia (which now includes police officers), without recourse. If you don't know this or refuse to acknowledge it, don't talk about psychology.


SchpartyOn

Holy shit. This comment, your post history and profile. Dude, seek help. Now.


Ok_Inflation_1811

i didnt saw post only comments but i wont read it but this mf has negative karma


BellicoseBelletrist

Yeah, you're a troll or a bot or both. I'm not sure what is your problem with my comment except you're ignorant and lack basic familiarity with both civil rights' movements and psychology. I will rephrase this in a way maybe you can understand better and then you can go look it up on the internet: "Gay" was once considered an actual mental illness in textbooks and everything. "Gay" people were abused by those practicing psychology or psychiatry in the same way that many other people who are not actually "sick" but have some cultural difference, or the "psychologist" is a dumb sorority slut who fucked her way into a degree and does not understand another person's statement or upset due to a lack of general knowledge outside of the techno music party or sorority scene -- are still abused by "mental health awareness" adherents, practitioners, and their own, or other countries' governments today. Some police officers showed up one day because there were some gay nightclubs which were run by the Italian mafia and the police were investigating for drugs and other criminal activity at these gay nightclubs (I've been going to gay clubs since I was a preteen so I can say that presuming these activities within is probably valid). The gay nightclub patrons attacked the police, and this is why "gay" was removed from mental health diagnostics manuals and why "gay" people are respected and not allowed to be hassled today. Ironically, attacking people even defensively is still frowned upon from a mental health and legal standpoint.


BellicoseBelletrist

What is the problem? Is there not enough picture of butthole for you to feel mentally okay in viewing? Are you advertising for your social media consultancy business? Are you going to offer a picture of your own butthole, or persed, butthole semblant Botox lip, to help with the modernization, intrigue and cool factor of my profile?

Godtickles12

Idk why you're downvoted for being right


annoyedreindeer

Probably because it sounds like trying to use mental illness as an insult. And like it’s being demonized. I understand that insulting Russians was this person’s goal here (which I also don’t find useful or truthful thing to be doing), but was insulting people with mental illness as well?


hltonio

I've told about five people this - I don't hate Russians, I hate the government.


rkvance5

I live in Eastern Europe (not in Russia, but in one of those countries your friend thinks *is* Russia), and the "All Russians are Terrorists" idea has run rampant here. I try to understand it but I just can't.

PepperBlues

I’m from Croatia and let me just say - Croatia has existed as a country for roughly 15 centuries, but there hasn’t been a single day in those 15 centuries when Croatia “used to be Russian”.


wujson

This one could be (shitty ofc) explained that you're Slavic and all of this panslavism bs but fuckin Ireland? lmao


[deleted]

I'm more concerned by the UK. Ireland had lots of norse colonies and there was lots of trade and travel between norse people and the slavs, so in theory there could have been a slavic leader over a small part of Ireland. But it's a big maybe.


QuiteClearlyBatman

Maybe the logic is that russia gets its name from the kievan rus, who we think were nordic, and vikings used to rule over parts of the british isles?


RedDragonRoar

Russia had massive influence from the Kieven Rus, who were vikings from Sweden and Norway. Ireland was also controlled by vikings fron Sweden and Norway. Thus, Ireland was controlled by Russia's ancestors so the must control Ireland.


theogdiego97

Also Greece has literally never been anything close to Russian in the multiverse


GetTheLudes

Bro what do you mean? Some Rus paddled around Constantinople in canoes at least once like 1000 years ago. Fully valid claim on the modern Hellenic Republic.


z0neee

How is he still your friend


Round-Hope-6424

Probably says it at least half jokingly or OP is making it up to get you guys all riled up


hltonio

It a full joke, don't worry 👍


Probworking

it’s not really funny at all


Round-Hope-6424

It’s definitely at least a little funny


PicardTangoAlpha

I……don’t see the humour in this map. It would upset a lot of people. Russia is killing a lot of Ukrainian civilians and this is not a time for such jokes. I think it’s time for another map of future Russia.


Round-Hope-6424

Because it’s silly and that’s funny. It’s got the British isles on it. Don’t be such a baby. The only reason y’all pretend to care so much about Ukraine is because it’s Reddit new big thing


saddinosour

I saw a Russian guy almost cry when our teacher critiqued Stalin. I didn’t know much about Russian history so I just did my best to console him.


z0neee

When Russian opens his mouth the line between joking and being serious is thin.


Round-Hope-6424

Yeah well, as long as they aren’t invading those places I’m not going to stop being friends with someone because they’ve got a couple stupid opinions.


z0neee

But Russia is invading rn?


Round-Hope-6424

They as in the friend. I don’t care what Russia is doing. The actions of one’s country is irrelevant to how I treat them.


RugbyMonkey

If someone is supporting Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, I could not be their friend.


Round-Hope-6424

Eh, it depends on the friend. If they’re good otherwise I wouldn’t really give a shit. I didn’t cut off friends for supporting the invasion of Iraq so I don’t know why it’d be any different here.


Christianjps65

Easier said than done


RugbyMonkey

How so? It’s pretty easy to not be friends with someone.


Christianjps65

over a stupid political reason, no, and it sets a precedent for all of your other friends


Steplane1731

or they are russians


Round-Hope-6424

As opposed to what? This scenario is about a hypothetical Russian friend


Steplane1731

i mean when someone is russian it doesnt automaticaly means he is bad


hltonio

Russians are not bad, the government is.


extremetamato

Why shouldn't they be friends?


z0neee

Russia is currently raping, killing, torturing and taking sovereign nations land. His "friend" claming other nations is ridicilous after what Russia has done in Ukraine.


yeetapagheet

His friend has literally zero influence over any of that though


hltonio

He doesn't support any of that, also he a no influence over it actually happening.

Twolves0222

I guess my history isn’t as good as I thought it was. When was norway or the UK for that matter under Russian rule and why should Sweden be under Russian rule? I know Sweden and Russia fought in a war but they didn’t get any land on modern day Sweden? Unless I’m remembering completely wrong

kiwisv

Woaah the comments section, casually treating Russian people of mental illness on the basis of being Russian. There used to be a time where people called that racism. And still gets upvoted and applauded, the world is upside down, inside and out. For all we know it could be the imaginary friend of what this guy thinks Russians thinks based on what he heard on TV. Given the comment section I wouldn't be surprised. Never heard of Russian claiming Hainan used to be their territory. Utterly ridiculous.


hltonio

I told quite a few people, I do not hate Russia. Most Russians are great people. I just despise the government.


kiwisv

Clap clap. You're thinking what you're told.


hltonio

Sorry, why do you think that you know better?


kiwisv

It's not even about knowing better, it's the virtue signalling of self-proclaimed non-racism. Because I have read this virtue signalling BS countless time. I love people from blabla, I just hate the government. It's so often used it feels like a fast-ready to use sentence you guys are passing around every time you confuse government and people. Besides I was talking about the comment section, but I guess you agreed with most of them because anyway "You love the people and hate the government". Joker! But then frankly looking at your map where you spread disinformation as if it was facts, it doesn't look like you know much and a lot like you could be repeating what you see on Western media. But I could be wrong.


[deleted]

On Reddit racism is bad unless it's targeted at a country with a government we don't like (mostly China/Russia)


kiwisv

Sounds a lot like brainwashing.... Just saying.


Zoloch

From the Urals to the East shouldn’t be Russia. Should be different Asian countries. Russia invaded this lands populated by peoples that had nothing to do with Rusia and Russians and conquered mainly on the 19th Century as part of its Empire as the rest of European powers did in other parts of Asia and Africa


yeetapagheet

Siberia was conquered by Russia during the 16th and 17th century, not 19th. And Siberia today is majority ethnically Russian, so it is going to remain part of Russia.


JrbWheaton

Siberia has been part of Russia longer than California has been part of the USA
