As an American I will say that we are a fundamentally evil country. Our people are mostly not evil, but our governmental system does immeasurable evil to people in this country and across the world.

You don't know what you are talking about.

How many languages do you speak? Which countries have you lived in and for how long?

Can you name 5 bullet points about russian history in the 20th century?

Provide one example of Russia's positive contribution in the global sphere. Three example w.r.t. USA are Japan, Germany and South Korea.

American government being fundamentally evil doesn’t mean Russian government isn’t even more* fundamentally evil (which it is)

No, the US gov is not fundamentally evil.

They definitely do bad things, but not every single action of the US is bad.

Every action (every single one) done by the russians is evil.

That is an overly simplistic view. Russian government has done good things, It funds healthcare for it’s citizens.

Now don’t get me wrong Russian government is fundamentally evil. But governments are much too complex to only do good or evil things. Every single government has done both many good and evil things.

I was referring to broader geopolitics. Specifically leadership by US in Germany, Japan and South Korea are strong success stories. Can you provide a similar example for russia?

What do you know about the evolution of healthcare under putin in the last 25 years? Can you make a factual statement about the evolution of russian healthcare without searching? Or is this a sophomoric attempt at rhetoric?

Oh no Kremlin anti anti propaganda mudding the waters or some other stupid shit.

grow up.

Please, you live in a sheltered environment, you know very little about the world and you're telling me to grow up?

How many languages do you speak? How many countries have you lived in for more than 12 months? How many continents?

The whole Assange piece is for lazy, internet edgelords. Assange is a right wing shill that collaborates with the russians; he his whole human rights thing is a ruse.
