Thread: Edward Snowden and his stay in Russia

You two totally destroy any enjoyment of writing in this forum.

Apart from that, you seem to deliberately misunderstand and misquote what I am saying, and others and you completely personify the definition of trolling.

You seem determine to use this forum about the Russian language to blackpaint Russia to the greatest possible extent.

It's not about goldplating a country that doesn't deserve it; it's about respecting a nation that this forum is about, and most of the partcipants are from.

The dirt on Russia is available in any Western article or news story on the topic - do we really need to repeat the same stories here too? Every English speaking person with an interest in Russia have already heard it many times.

And those Russians who hate their own country; fine - it's your prerogative and you may have many good reasons. But is it really the reason why you learned English? And what exactly are you getting out of proliferating your views to non-Russians? Some here are so determined and persistent that I have to wonder if they are getting paid by the comment.

So go ahead and "explode with laughter" alone in this forum - I think you've managed to scare off or bore almost everyone else. There are much better places than this to get the dirt on Russia in English, and sans insults and snidy comments.

Хорошо написано, Ханночка! Спасибо тебе за твоё бесконечное терпение и умение смотреть на троллей с высоты.
Любые доводы и переубеждения стекают с них, как с гуся вода. Им что в лоб, что по лбу - не пробъёшься.
Я думаю, что наш форум читает много здравомыслящих людей, и я уверена, что твоя точка зрения находит у них отзыв, так что не расстраивайся по пустякам. Лично мне всегда интересно читать твои посты и я восхищаюсь твоей чистотой, искренностью и желанием находить хорошее в России.
