      Second picture is photoshop - the rear shadow is wrong

    6. Korean says:

      This website is so dumb, just pure propaganda, it’s 70% photoshopped pictures, the remaining 30% always comes from a different eastern-european country that is NOT Russia

      I have lived there and I can assure you it is depicted very wrong, I could make a website called “russianamerica” and go to middle of nowhere Alabama, take pictures, doctor them, and then post them saying “This is every day America”.

      Stupid.

      While in Moscow, I went to the Anglo-American school of Moscow, picture: h t t p : // http://www.aas. ru/photos/14/air%2Dview%2Daas1%2Egif

      Remove the spaces, THAT is every day Russia, not this nonsense.

    7. Wooshkaboom says:

      You seriously think that some upper-class school (which, by the way, was founded by US, UK and Canadian embassies) in the middle of Moscow is “everyday Russia”?

      Sure, this site is 95% pure nonsense, but if you think that by living a while in Moscow you know what Russia is all about, then man, you’re way off. That’s like saying “I lived in a hotel in Manhattan so I know what the USA is all about” - especially now with Putin’s Russia, where Moscow with it’s gas-powered local economy is all that matters.

      These particular pictures may not all be from Russia, or even “real”, but they ARE what everyday life is about: accidents, crap on city streets, shitty old worn-down cars, mud and snow, stupid people and alcoholism. Welcome to the real world.

    8. Korean says:

      Uhhh considering I was born in USSR(my parents are south korean however, not north they came for religious purposes), and lived in more than one city, I know what it is like. My parents moved to the U.S during the economic crisis, but then my father had an option to make a lot more money while being in Moscow.

      Of course there is bad areas, just like any other country. But this website exaggerates it to the point where it is just pure propaganda, and it’s not like I am rich or something, only upper-middle class.

      And by the way, I went to the school so I’d know more about it than you, the original plan for it was started by the Soviet embassy contacting other embassies.

      Sure, Russia isn’t the greatest country in the world (but on this site they try to depict it as a third world country), and I doubt it ever will be, but it will become one of the most powerful economic countries, considering the biggest corporation in the world will be Gazprom. (Wikipedia sucks but: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gazprom)

      And hey, why not look at the cia world fact book: https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/rankorder/2187rank.html

      U.S sure has a lot of money to spend, yes I know this doesn’t reflect the economy as a whole, it’s more about per capita income (Which, currently in Russia stands at $15,000, to compare Japan stands at $30,000, U.S stands at $45,000).

      But even that will become better and better as years go by, it was very very bad in 1998(hence the move to U.S), only $2,000.

      I am starting to believe U.S has the most negative view on Russia(besides a few eastern european countries that are poor anyway), because every other country I have been to, the people there had either neutral views or positive, but almost never negative. And I don’t blame Americans, when they’re exposed to garbage like this website, the media, and so forth, the most pretty picture you see of Russia are old grey ones in WW2 era with broken buildings.

      • Wooshkaboom says:

        I’ve never taken this website seriously enough to consider it “propaganda”. And besides, if they’d post just pictures about normal, decently living people, how long do you think this site would have traffic?

        By the way, upper-middle-class is pretty fucking rich, if you’re looking at it from the lower classes.

        Yeah, Russia may be economically powerful, but so was Hitler’s Germany in it’s better days. And when it comes to Gazprom, I have to say that I don’t raelly like the idea of a corporation that has it’s own private ARMY, nor do I like the idea of a nation that allows the said company to have one…

        If you think the US has a negative view on Russians, come visit Finland some time. There are shitloads of people here who are utterly convinced that “the only good Russian is a dead Russian” - and that view, narrow-minded as it may be, doesn’t come from the media, but from real world experiences from living in a country that has been bullied around by it’s eastern neighbour for longer than anyone can remember.

        • Private army? You mean like Blackwater?

          • Wooshkaboom says:

            (HOORAY, this forum did it again! Posted my “reply to this comment” at the bottom of the stack - great! Let’s try that again…)

            Blackwater is company whose line of business IS providing training and pseudo-military services - Gazprom is a company whose main line of business is energy production, but it HAS ITS OWN private army. There’s a big difference between the two.

            • Dimitry says:

              what a bullshit!!!!! I worked for Gazprom for 6 years and know it well from inside.

              It’s a large and powerfull but poorly managed monster. But there is nothing like army!!!! where did you hear this shit??????

        • Korean says:

          I’d put that as the europe comment I made.

      • Twister says:

        Korean, don’ t be stupid.

        The fact that Gazprom is pumping raw natural resources of Russia across its borders in quantities never seen before, does not mean that Russia is economically strong.

        Look at Japan. They have nearly no natural resources and still are one of the biggest economies in the world. Now, THAT is a strong economy.

        Also, it is not the USA only who have negative view about Russia. Take a map and draw a line some 2′000 km West from Russian border parallel to it. Everyone who is in that zone knows what Russians really are, and not from Wikipedia but from real life experience, and share feelings rather similar to those described here by Wooshkaboom from Finland.

      • Old Mother says:

        Get a life! The pictures - photo-shopped or not are FUNNY - except for those that are gorgeous - like the North Russian churches.
        Hmmm….South Korean, religious reasons, moved around a lot - now I understand - You’re a Moonie! - explains why you don’t have a sense of humour.

    9. Korean says:

      Apparently my comment won’t show up

    10. Pete says:

      This site is pure nonsense?

      I need to sit down.

      I think I need a hug.

    11. korean,

      i was born in ukraine and lived there for 12 years. i find that some of the stuff posted here is real but some is not. you being a foreigner who was born in russia does not make you an expert on whats real or not.

    12. Korean says:

      bugged out videos,

      Ukraine is not Russia.

      And I’m not a foreigner! I was born there,Russian/Korean was my first languages it doesn’t matter what you are, if you are born there and you are culturally that, you are not a foreigner.

      Viktor Tsoi is half korean, born and raised in USSR his entire life, and lived there as well, was he a foreigner? Not at all.

      • Yeah, Victor Tsoi was a great man!
        He was a Korean with a real russian soul. He was not a sovok. It is true.

        And he was not seen as a foreigner in Russia by russians.
        The fact is that Koreans are most respectful non-Slavic people in Russia.
        Poles are have much less homage from Russians than Koreans do.

    13. These shots are definitely not “everyday”. What’s “really everyday” is not interesting. In any country you wake up, eat something, go to work, do someting more or less boring, return back, relax a bit and go to bed. Nothing that is worth making a shot.

    14. About the red stockings worn by person on hood of car in the last photo . . . I would like to stock them in my shops in The Netherlands, Venezuela, and in cities of Las Vegas and San Francisco in the USA. Can anyone help me find the fashion designer who lovingly created this brilliant design, or the manufactuter who skillfully produced them?

      Helping sell Russian fashion trends abroad,
      M. Ahmadinejad

    15. Korean you miss the point. Nobody shoots pics of “everyday” things. They shoot pics of INTERESTING things.
      Dog bites man is not news. MAN BITES DOG…THAT is news.

    16. Texas1 says:

      Really nice, but I didn’t write that.

    17. Korean: please take a look at previous the blog entry “Trip to North”. Is THAT anti-Russian propaganda? No, it isn’t. It’s an awesome collection of photos that depict a mysterious land that many of us find fascinating. You should take that stick out of your ass and learn to appreciate what this great site does: provide an up/down good/bad nostalgia/modern sad/funny look at Russia, Ukraine and eastern Europe.

      You are so busy being offended that you can’t open your eyes and see what’s really here. I have never been to Russia, but this site has caused me to make plans. Well, that and a girl I know in Korolev. The point is: you’re a dick, you are wrong, and you should shut the hell up.

      Thank you.

      Ну так куле ответил? Просто тупо. Ладно, мне чесногря пох. Адьос. нехворай мой сладкий.

    20. But the results are still the same.

    21. Wooshkaboom says:

      What results? Dead people? Do you really have to simplify things THAT much before you are able to process them in your mind, J from K?

    22. I’m sorry for this reply bug.

    23. D says:

      This site is clearly here to make fun of russia. And who likes to make fun of russians the most? Americans. Why? Becuase that’s what they were taught their whole lives. Why were they tought that? Becuase America is scared shitless of Russia. Why are they scared shitless? Becuase Russia poses a threat militarily and economically. All this hatred is really a form of flattery in my eyes. In the words of hot-rod. “Hate is the new love.” Yall can hate on russia and russians all you want, it doesnt make your existance any more worthy. Some day, fairly soon I think, this cold war ingrained hate will dissapear and turn into jealousy. Even a blind man can see that russia is growing faster and faster and america is declining faster and faster.

      On the topic of gazprom and its military (which I didnt know they had one). Gazprom is a goverment owned company, so in reality its not even a company or a corporation, its just a branch of the government. Like the IRS in the U.S. So protecting it with goverment military is perfectly understanable considering they deal in many remote parts with lots of expensive equiptment and product.

    24. Jony says:

      Thank God I dont live in Russia. Its horrible place

    25. Name says:

      Satellite dishes… that looks like Eastern or southern Ukraine. Many, very many people have dishes, because they want to watch TV in native language, which is Russian and not in crappy imitation of the language, which UKR govt tries to force…

      ухххх, сколько злобы! прямо по стопам г-жи новодворской. меня то конееееееееееееешно не выпускают, кто меня да и других russiansov выпустит, куда там. TERRIBLE K!G!B! BOOOOOOOOOOO!
      а коли свалил из “этой” страны так и засунь тряпку в рот и захлопни варежку, да наслаждайся “дарами дерьмократии”. а вот насчет “содержания” детишек - там поаккуратней, за это и статья существует в УК ;) НА НА НА

      P.S. Если хватит ума и образования, Вы, достопочтенный сударь, думается мне, не ответите на сей постъ. А ежели ответите, то, Вы, сударь - мудак-с!

      Sincerely Yours,

      Rodriguez Ты просто тормоз конченный, и действительно, отвечать тебе это ниже моего достоинства. Этот пост для форума а не для тебя.
