Surely all it says is that regardless of our hopes, plans, and intentions sometimes shit hits our fan and we have no control over it?

That youre a metaphorical offensive driver while this person is defensive?

what does opening a comment on here with "fuck you" say about you?

one way is not inheritently better than the other

I think you could approach this a little less angrily given this person never actually directed any vitriol toward you.

You know what, judging by your behaviour in this thread I kinda get why you got stabbed..

I'm glad you do work for the homeless, that's great.

Russian Project is effectively equivalent to manifest destiny, and the government has existed in service to white supremacy for a while. they call it "russian chauvanism" in the places it influences, but the Russian federation acts as a colonial imperial state

Well, I think Russia is another one of those places where my ethnicity or language could make me a target. Truthfully, I think I'd be more worried about the govt/police than the average citizens.

There's a Spike Lee film called "The 25th Hour", great movie. It takes place in NYC and has this one line delivered by someone playing a Russian Mob boss, a real intimidating character:

I have been in three different prisons, Montgomery. Three different countries. And you know what I learned?

...

I learned prison is a bad place to be.

But I'm sure Norway is nice 😉

Is homosexuality not still literally outlawed in Russia?
