Enlightened Capitalism vs. Russian Oligarchy (revolution, military, money, government)

[craigiri]

Some of these memes are sorta funny.

For those who don't get it, it's the Russians laughing at themselves for their lack of caring about advancing their tech and civilization.

The first tweet "Your Rocket - Your son's friends rocket" is pretty accurate in terms of how Russia spends its money. Our government actually still buys rocket engines from Russia, but they are 1960's design!

Space-X (Musk) can now launch twice the weight as his closest US Competitor - for 1/3 or less of the price. That is quite revolutionary.

Anyway, have a chuckles at the Ruskies - who at least have a sense of humor.

Who says Russians don't care about advancing their civilization? You're as welcome to your opinion as you are to wallow in your ignorance.

The title is misleading big time.

I don't like infowars, but they do call BS where due every once in a while.

It will be revolutionary when every other launch doesn't fail miserably.

As a Russian bot I must say our technology is very primitive.

To get me fired up in the morning you have to blow inside my cartridge like the old Nintendo.

I have noticed that Russians (women) seem to sell themselves in bulk to the most popular sites on the interweb.....I guess that's one of the top ways to make a living when your country doesn't care about you any longer (not to excuse American women - maybe the Russians just work cheaper).

Strange because Russia was actually ahead of the West in terms of educating women, having them in the military, etc......during the commie years. I guess now it's pretty much "anything goes" and hopefully you know a billionaire through some family connections.
