The compartmentalized, contradictory thinking in western chauvinist lemmings is something to behold.
In the west, thanks to ageing populations, the government pension burden has been a serious problem for
at least 20 years and is getting worse. A partial solution to this has been to increase the retirement age.
But when Russia faces the same problem and applies the same remedies, it is "totally different" and nefarious.
This is in the context that Russia still has Soviet era retirement at 55 and 60 years which simply cannot be
found in the west, where everywhere they are 65 and over.
It was funny to see paid teenagers (not many) come out for Nahanly's demonstrations against the retirement
age change from 55 years to 65 together with pensioners for whom the change in retirement age has no
relevance. Truly a freakish clown show demonstrating the intellectual bankruptcy of the non-systemic
lunatic fringe opposition in Russia. The same opposition that NATzO expects to rule Russia if it gets
a few billion dollars more in financing from NATzO sources.
