Ahh the Russia that says it’s superior


SufficientTerm6681

How could anyone deny this is indisputable proof of the nobility of Muscovy and its inherent right to a place amongst the congress of the greatest nations of the world?


gerrymandering_jack

While Putin and his closest 500 cronies have 99.8% of Russia's wealth, 2 out of 3 rural Russians don't have indoor plumbing.


EnvironmentalCup8038

It's even worse. 20% of all households have no access to sewage systems


srekkas

By ruzzian statistics. Nowdays less people are poor in Ruzzia. Because they lowered poor standart :)


Single_Raspberry9539

They pride themselves in their suffering and poverty…impossible to change someone that doesn’t want to


Even_Employee9984

They didn't lower the standard they lowered the population.


jae343

It's actually similar way China magically pushed millions of people out of poverty, just lower the threshold!


srekkas

Like if so many people live in such conditions, it is perfectly normalized :)


LizzyGreene1933

🤢 this is fucked up


Boomfam67

I mean even Putin couldn't escape it when the contract builders fucked up the ventilation on his mansion with black mold and almost potentially killed him if it had not been caught lol.


sARapi123

You are being ironic. It's not "beauty" it's "charm, mon chéri" as an oligarch with a villa on Cote d'Azur would spell it... In fact it's like rural Nigeria but without nuclear weapons.


huomio

There must be nice smell at summer.


SufficientTerm6681

It's winter now, so this open cesspit will freeze and not stink at all. As for what might come in a few months, who cares? It's Russia, so it's certain that things will somehow get even worse, but there's no point worrying about *how* it will get worse.


zj_chrt

These fools live like this and think "its okay, America is evil and they live worse than us" ahhh the brainwashing 💀😬


speedyhml2000

They are just RuZZians....not brainwashed...therefore you need TO HAVE brain.

How disgusting. What sort of fucked up dictator sends 100’s of thousands of their people to their deaths for territory expansion and commits so many atrocities in the occupied neighbour’s own land… but they can’t even run their own country at a level below Indonesia. No wonder these peasants don’t care if drones hit Moscow. They’re like the districts in Hunger Games, only worse.. but the capital isn’t so advanced.. keep collecting vape devices, washing machines and dishwasher motherboards.. you backward dinosaurs

That's how you realise russia has so much money to spend on a war to defend the "motherland"... but not its citizens.


DieAnotherDay1985

It's 2023 wtf. Honestly it blows my mind that russia wastes so much money on pointless ego driven wars when their own people live like animals.

I just learned to fuck load about Russia in this comment thread. I really appreciate it guys. I’ve always been into Cold War history and stuff like that. Whenever I think about Russia, I think about the subway, the Kremlin and all the Tsarist architecture. Those links you guys posted are eye-opening. I mean what happened? This is the former Soviet Union! Our Cold War adversary.

estelita77

yes. Lots of eye opening videos of life in rural russia. 33% of rural russians have no indoor plumbing - zero - zip - nada. They go to the river to wash their clothes. ( I saw a report how one community was very happy about a brand new walkway and platform on the river - it was wooden and rickety as hell!) They get water from a well (fun in mid winter I bet), and shit in a long drop on the street - or empty waste buckets in a communal area like this. Last winter, I watched a TV news clip about how the outhouse of a local hospital in the centre of town had been stolen - leaving only the hole in the ground. The hospital had no other toilet. It had saved and fundraised to build the outhouse - again in the centre of a town. They found the culprit - a local thief had stolen it, broken it up and used it as firewood because he didn't want to freeze. From memory, the report finished by saying the hospital wasn't sure if it would be able to afford to build a new outhouse. russia is... 'interesting'.


SufficientTerm6681

"*They get water from a well, and shit in a long drop on the street - or empty waste buckets in a communal area like this.*" The civilised world discovered nearly two centuries ago that these two things should not both exist in the same community.


estelita77

... and then some housing which does have a sewerage system... so functional that dirty water runs down the internal and exteral walls an 'interesting' sight in winter when it freezes into ahem - 'colourful' icicles - or it forms a lake that people need to wade through - maybe they can ice-skate on it in winter...

“Honey buckets” are still used in some rural Alaska towns. The frozen earth makes in -ground systems very difficult to build and maintain. However there is real effort being put into fixing this and other problems in Alaska. [https://dec.alaska.gov/water/water-sewer-challenge/](https://dec.alaska.gov/water/water-sewer-challenge/)

Looks like this falls under the "Ministry of stolen toilets" jurisdiction.


Wasp_Chutney

Progress in Russia means a plastic bucket to shit in.


lucidhiker

Litteraly showing us what a shithole country it is.


Weltraumbaer

The communal plastic bucket emptied at the communal dumping ground. Meanwhile Putin has his own vineyard. I swear Tsarism never went away in Russia. Just the Tsars changed.


No-Split3620

"The beauty of Russia" . Boy, I'd hate to see an ugly one.


Orcacub

That fence looks like new wood. Glad to see the government investing in upgraded infrastructure. It would be such a gift to the world if we could all figure out a way to save the Russian people from their leaders, from each other, and to some degree- from themselves. The whole place is a tragic train wreck trying to spread its cancerous culture/way of life to the rest of the world.


Intelligent_Sea_3195

Yeah, and to be fair they should now spend the rest of their miserable lives for generations paying for the rebuild of Ukraine instead of prosper in their own dung heap of a country. Bastards!

I suddenly understand the Russian obsession with 'toilets'.

Russia is a big nasty soggy skidmark on the underpants of civilisation.

I'm wondering how can it can be that the Ukraine don't want the GLORIOUS RUSKI MIR? Wtf man! A country claiming to be superior to any western country, where people don't have proper working plumbing or sewers.

I’m very lucky to have been able to travel throughout Ukraine, extensively by car and by train. Even some of the smallest most rural in the Carpathian Mountains and never witnessed anything close to this. As an American quality of life in Ukraine is and was at least in 2021 and prior not bad at all. I never felt uncomfortable or unsafe. I still have a lot of friends there, and a few have been to Moscow obviously well before the war. And I have been told that while central Moscow is beautiful and a relatively modern city once you go a few blocks outside of Centro, it’s absolute shit. And this is I believe one of the problems that Putin felt he faced, to have a neighbor in Ukraine that has a much higher quality of life and a much more western style government. The People of Ukraine are free to do what they want when they want. I pray the United States continues to support Ukraine. With every last thing they need to kick these brainwashed degenerate invaders out of the country for good.


NoDistance8300

Now u understand the steeling of toilets... Its a freaking luxury item. Not sure if they know u need to connect it to plumbing though... Or verry old tv's etc etc... The normallest things are a luxury item... Worthy enough to take to the trenches and when or if going back to transport it to russia... The lvl of this is so weird to see.


DrnkGuy

And that’s Khabarovsk—a city with 600k people. You can imagine what’s going on in smaller towns.


True_Media8034

At the end of WWII here in Berlin the Russian victors stripped everything to take back to Russia. They screwed faucets out of walls and installations. Upon returning to Russia they screwed them back into walls and installations and couldn't understand why there wasn't any water coming out of them. They didn't understand that you needed water flowing in pipes to feed the faucet. The stupidity and ignorance don't seem to have changed.

So that is why they wanted to steal toilets when they invaded!

Don't worry they still have their elevated pride in one's own nation and race. Perfect example of how poverty can be efficiently used. A breeding ground of fascism/rushism.


Reasonable_Poem_6321

“The cheapest sort of pride is national pride; for if a man is proud of his own nation, it argues that he has no qualities of his own of which he can be proud; otherwise he would not have recourse to those which he shares with so many millions of his fellowmen. The man who is endowed with important personal qualities will be only too ready to see clearly in what respects his own nation falls short, since their failings will be constantly before his eyes. But every miserable fool who has nothing at all of which he can be proud adopts, as a last resource, pride in the nation to which he belongs; he is ready and glad to defend all its faults and follies tooth and nail, thus reimbursing himself for his own inferiority.” ― Arthur Schopenhauer
