You make the claim it’s propaganda, but you didn’t even watch it. From when you came into the thread to when you posted was only a few minutes.

You’re pathetic dude.

Meanhile, the US president was the one that made the claim “no one moves to Moscow for the opportunity.”

Most people, including US presidents are simply too stupid to know Russia is the second largest destination for immigrants of all countries in the world.

But correcting other people’s lack of knowledge is the issue here. Riiiight.

Sure. Keep listening to all Western sources and stay as dumb as you like.

If you have facts showing Russia isn’t a huge destination for millions of immigrants, please post them. Let’s see what you’ve got.

We both know you have nothing. No facts. No knowledge of Russia. Nothing but spouting about propaganda which is, in fact, the truth and not propaganda at all.

They are just facts you don’t like and were if ignorant of until I corrected you. Hey, you and Obama are on the same level though.

You keep chiming in with name calling and big opinions.

Just no facts….

You are correct. I didn't watch it in its entirety. I only watched it through the segment on the family with 6 kids and a 7th on the way and the beginning of the next segment.

I found that family coocoo. It's an opinion. They just seemed odd to me.

As far as immigration to Russia, yes, they have a large influx of immigrants but the overwhelming majority of them, by the millions, have been from former Soviet countries. In essence, millions of ethnic Russians have returned to Russia from Ukraine, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, etc. The influx from western countries is minimal, especially if they aren't ethnic Russians. There will always be the rare non-Russian Westerner who will immigrate to Russia, like some of those in the video.

Id love to go but the US woulf probably pistol whip me and detain me as a spy. I trust this country less than Russia is

The crazy thing is its lost 14.5% just since the 11th of this month. Thats close to a 1% per day plunge. If you take that kind of buying power loss and extrapolate it over a year to get an annual rate----it would be the equivalent of sustaining a 365% inflation loss due to the crash in currency value. Even the Russian Central Bank is signaling that the Russian economic growth rate will decline next year to barely any growth at all (and thats assuming everything goes perfectly). Furthermore, the Russian Central Bank expects the Russian economy to worsen until at least 2029. This agrees with the IMF---which has issued a similar expectation. The Ruble plunge would have happened earlier---it was just delayed because the Russian government made moves prop up their currency---including mass purchases of rubles---which they can no longer afford to do because of war expenses.
