I debated it to the point when I myself feel like it's complete and I've got nothing to add or remove. You are not the only ones who read the forum and the thread. Someone might agree without saying and this is enough. I don't make money from posting here so I suppose I can afford being...

Jeez... Guys - BN, Ausdoerrt - don't be so politically correct, please. I'm not some sensitive feminist who runs screaming over some "macho" remark. Aren't you the one, BN, who told me that Russian Empire, USSR and RF are basically the same thing? Something, BTW, that I'm completely agree...

Sorry - but the emphasized text is wrong. That spike in the natural population growth in the end of the Soviet era explained by the prohibition. Communists made an attempt to solve demographic problems by this law. And at some point they have even succeeded. BTW, Brother None - thank...

Ok, ok... enough neat-picking... I've overstated. Socialism began poisoning Russia since the very beginning of it. It has become obvious just as the WW2 and the subsequent spike in population growth were over - after 1960. Better now? I've also obviously underestimated the fact that a lot of...

No. It was aimed at those who claim that my point is invalid because they can't read Russian while they can read your graph. As to Indians and blacks - yes, that was me mocking your points about national problems in Russian Empire being linked to some problems of something I didn't completely...

Could you kindly share an example, please? First, this again is your own view. Which is no better or more tenable than mine. Next, I've added the emphasis in bold - does it ring a bell? I've been both inside and outside, so don't overestimate your vision.

Yes. An example that I've brought. An example of what can happen to a country, exposed to socialism for 70 years. That *was* the point. No. BUT - if someone from the Ancient Rome would be here and told me about its history, I would just listen. Or at least I wouldn't tell him "shit up, I...

Surprise - sometimes in order to make a research on some culture or a country one needs to read the language. If one claims some deep knowledge of Russian history and argues like he has a clue with a someone who was born and lives here... and still can't read Russian at the same time, can't...

"Hardly"? So much for a strong argument. It's either my "inconsistencies and purely ignorant statements" or your lack of abstract thinking and tendency to confuse your own full stomach with the rise or fall of the whole civilization. But who cares anyway, right? Crni - celts are fucking...

Funny, I liked SF in FO2 a lot. When I first played FO2 and get to SF, I've quickly started feeling like "finally, some peaceful place". Guys, who talk that "they should be more Communists" - are you sure you know what you're talking about? Chinese always lived in communities of some sort...

And wealth is not equal to success or being alive. When a population reaches critical mass at the bottom - it's absolutely irrelevant how wealthy it was. Like when you're dead - it doesn't matter how rich you are, you're just dead. Others - like it was with Romans and dirty, living in goat shit...

Russian Empire's population was growing. Look, it's just as easy as with any other species. Population grows - everything works good. Population shrinks - bad, something is wrong. Not a rocket science, I think. Why is it so hard to comprehend that? Uh... sorry, I didn't realize that...

Hmm... Does a phrase "look what a prolonged exposure to radiation does to once healthy people" means that we're talking about two different persons? Look, BN, no one owes you for the lengthy posts. You're clearly do it for your own pleasure. I hope you have one. You could just as well...

HUH? Where exactly? WTF you're talking about? This is a cheesy way. You're twisting my words on a constant basis, pretending that "you've said this" and then start arguing with your own words. You are just full of shit, Brother None. Just start making your own points or fuck off. I...

Agreed. I have had the same impression about evil path in PS:T. An "evil" character there is closer to paranoid then to evil. Or closer to those psycho types who get drunk and then beat up their girlfriends. I've got to add that the whole concept of good-evil in D&D and similar systems (like...

You've got a lot to learn before you even come close to irony, then. Calling someone "Hitler" is as close to irony as shitting on your pants - to a good joke. That's why he is hiding having nothing to say?

"Libertarian" is an alcohol. Adding socialism to it means removing anything libertarian. Because it demonstrates your oversimplified knee-jerk reactions that have replaced a cognitive process in some particular areas.

And adding tons of noise is a way to debate or a way to waste someone else's time? We can start debating about national structure of the Caucasus since 15th century, but what's the point? "Soviet Union failed because Russians are evil"? Or what exactly - in the context of the discussion...

Would you kindly replace these attempts to impress everyone around with your mighty knowledge with... you know... making a point? And.. again... the point is? Like Europe doesn't have absolutely any problems? Like there are no national tensions (Paris 2007, anyone?). There are no economical...

Even worse - I'm ethnically about 25% Jew. Plus Polish ancestry, plus Chechen blood. As far as I know. Calling me a "Russian nationalist" (or any other kind of nationalists) is as stupid as it may get. And using Hitler as an argument is an EPIC FAIL.
