Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

I wonder why only Polish. I think that there are much more countries, which they can "rightfully" accuse of this and make a specialized museum. But, I guess that spending money on useless war is more important for them anyway.

Not only, but especially.

Poor Russians. Terrible how everyone hates them for no reason whatsoever. Absolutely no reason.

Once again Russia announces to the world that Russian culture is horrible.

Russians staying classy, as always.

what culture? the actual one or do you also include classical music masterpieces or literature masterpieces?

[–] ol_capt_joe@piefed.ee 1 points 1 hour ago

The closer you look, the more you see that Russia has little or no actual culture of its own. Odds are whatever you thought you liked about Russia, you actually liked about some other people or place that Russia violently stole and lied about it.

Good eye-opener for anyone who is 100% sure that Russia is great: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLEeLVa_9iIOTA4K7-y8N4nOAOeh33GEro

That's so vile and disgusting. I wonder what the internal Russian opinion is on this. Do they buy it?

I don't live in Russia anymore, but none of my acquaintances there care about this kind of exhibitions. At least my bubble knows it's propaganda and corruption, and would avoid these kind of events. I'm sure many others would visit and feel so veeeeery offended at how terribly Russians are treated in the world...

Similar to domestic U.S. reaction to the current regime's babble of conflicting messages: some selectively shrug off or swallow whatever's convenient, some know it's unreliable and often harmful but believe they'll personally come out ahead so they accept some uncertainty, some see through it all to the naked corruption at the core. It's a mistake to think millions of people will or can all believe the exact same things when it comes to something as complex as politics.

Yeah, those poles didn't fear russia enough to flee in time...

When your neighbour is a bear, it is wise to be wary of it.

As far as trolling goes, this is top tier. They know what they are doing.
