So, what is wrong with Russians?
More after the jump...
There are way too many things that are wrong with Russians. For starters, all Russians are victims of the brutal authoritarian rule that lasted for... the entire history. Raped, tortured, and boiled to death by Tatar-Mongolian khans, oppressed by absolute monarchs, repressed by Stalin and other communist leaders, Russians had to learn how to obey authority the hard way. A slave can never become a good worker, a responsible voter, an active member of the society and, alas, Russians bear the consequences of a slave mentality that has been instilled in them by their mostly incompetent and feeble rulers.
If the whole nation can experience a Stockholm syndrome, then Russians, as well as Chinese and North Koreans, fell victims to their oppressive regimes. It will take many decades and bloody uprisings for them to learn how to fight for their rights, to preserve their dignity and to appreciate freedom. Right now Russian people find solace in a dictatorial regime imposed on them by a psycho in charge. They are gullible enough to swallow all the lies if those lies are made "in the name of Mother Russia."
So to answer the question "What is wrong with Russians" one of the answers will be: they were oppressed throughout their long history and they never got to experience freedom.
