    It’s interesting the lengths Russia will go through to win this without becoming a half-decent country.

      But it is half-decent, look at their metro & compare it to America’s

          & all 16 look like toilets & those metro systems are dysfunctional considering how car-dependent US is

            how are they dysfunctional? Chicagos system works quite well and dc’s one was somewhat decent. Having some fancy chandeliers does not make a metro system good.

                yeah but I think its good to challenge this shit. It likes to ride off the us transit bad thing. Which is true but then wants to combine it with, pretty russia train stations, when their infrastructure, including transit, is worse than ours. Which is saying a lot. Given china/india is doing a lot with their infrastructure, russia may find itself the backwater between two modern areas.

        I mean that’s more because America’s metro fucking sucks. My country has better and I’m literally from a third world country.

        That is Moscow and Saint-Petersburg.

        Show me the Metro of Sotschi… or any other second class Russian city.

        Russia has literally only 2 Cities partially on western standard. I think most dictatorships manage this, even North Korea.

          It’s everywhere in Russia, the point is Russia is half-decent not like what the American kool-aid would have you believe, that is all there is to it No politics here, case closed

        Well, what about if we compare ‘factories not on fire’ or ‘citizens lost on the battlefield in the last year (month)’ or even ‘incidents of explosive drone attacks’?

        Are they still half decent?
