Hmm, the last time i saw pics with that oil painting look was when i was checking out some 4K pics on my 1080p monitor, so i am going to assume those pics are in 4K.Mike E wrote:Kind of does...

I found it neither emboldening nor embarrassing.
I did, however, find it highly hillarious.

It is embarrassing because people who I think are sensible (Oleg Kulashev, the naval blog guy) repost it and say "oh nothing wrong with it, good propoganda!".
That is horrifying.

That is horrifying.
The sad thing is how few Americans feel the same way you do when they watch US movies like "Independence Day" and other such flag waving shit.
{BTW nice pics guys, my vote to the DB-3 bomber dropping a light tank photo... any more information about that particular version?)

Re: Russian Military Photos and Videos #2
Independence Day does not make moronic statements like that the Baltic Nations "clean toilets" and are basically degenerate gays and cross-dressers.
Terrible comparison. Flag waving IS stupid, but 1.) justifying a video based on other stupid ones is weak and 2.) this is beyond normal flag waving.
If you want to find something equivalent in the US (since this forum is obsessed with the US) then you could look into the expansion of America into the continent, and in general how freedom excluded and subjugated in fact natives and Black Americans. But once again, doesn't make tat retarded video any better.
My issue is not that its just "Russia strong". Its stupid on a whole separate level from that.

Re: Russian Military Photos and Videos #2
what goes around comes around. president of one baltic country even called russia a terrorist state. obama called it a gas station. big deal, just dont cry when they insult you back.TR1 wrote:Independence Day does not make moronic statements like that the Baltic Nations "clean toilets" and are basically degenerate gays and cross-dressers.
at least this vid. is honest, "we conquer you just because we can" sounds more natural than we "we want freedom and democracy for everyone"TR1 wrote:

Well.. they do.
I mean not that literarly of course, but the predispondance of the Baltic workforce employed in unskilled manual labour in Western Europe speaks for itself.
Nothing inherently wrong with it - Central Asian states, Ukraine, Moldova, etc... send most of their workforce to Russia to work, and they all do the same sort of jobs here as Balts, Poles, Romanians, etc... do in Western Europe.

And yet their GDP per capita is higher than Russia's, and they sure as hell are happy to be independent.
How much of Russia's vaunted employment figures are unskilled labor? Just from what I've seen, a quarter of Moscow is just sweepers, and strazha, and other bare bones jobs.

i was born in the baltics, and the baltics even if i hate them to the core did ther reforms well i must admit, very well, and that even befor the economic crisis to a part while russia is only now when the ground they stand starts to burn go ahead and do long long LOOOOONG needed reform
economicaly we can indeed lear from the balts, dont forget were they were 20 years ago, in the shit with no reasources just like we then but with resources... and look were they now and we now... still behind per capita with all the oil and gas and iron and coal and wood and and and welth
but as my thread i politly ask if we can move discussion out of this thread, its photos and videos

The Baltics have about the same GDP per capita as Russia - but in Russia GDP per capita means about as much as GDP per capita means for the whole of Europe.
You wouldn't say that a Muscovite and a Tuvan have any more comparable standards of living than a German and a Romanian.
If we take central + north-eastern Russia, their average GDP per capita will be slightly more than the Baltic one
However, the Baltics export half their workforce to Europe to work manual labour, while still having twice the unemployment of Russia.
Russia is the 2nd most immigrated to country in the world, and still has one of the lowest unemployment rates in Europe. Feel the difference.
If there weren't so many sweeper and strazha jobs - there would be other work. It's one of the reasons there are so many immigrants, the native workforce is just too small for Russia's size.
