      Yes, no ... here is not the side of life, but rather the standard of living. And pretty much the standard of living is a huge difference. Some defend the fatherland, skillfully collapsed and skillfully organizing wars on the territory of this fatherland by others, those whose children now hang out in clubs in Moscow (or even further) and are bored waiting for a limousine.

        True, our impression of a real man changes. Now more and more often a "real man" in tight jeans, and with dyed bangs ....
        Do not be ashamed to be rich, ashamed to boast of your wealth and believe that it makes you higher than the rest.

            -Well?
            - Yesterday, his dad returned from a business trip, now Sanka is not an EMO

          No, a real man is always the same. They are trying to reduce everything for money, but now more and more people are distinguishing rich boys from real men. A man with and without money, a real man

    Interested in a picture of a floating church. Here is another temple:

    Floating Church "St. Innocent." http://www.volgaprav.ru/hramy_volgograda/12_plavuchie_hramy/plavuchij-xram-svyat
    itel-innokentij / #. T3FnHOXTA2s

    "It is made from an ordinary landing stage with the support of the German organization Church in Need on the initiative of V. I. Koretsky - the famous Volgograd yachtsman, businessman and admirer of the famous Russian bard Vladimir Vysotsky, in whose honor the yacht club was named. "
    It's a good thing, only a little annoying the presence of a foreign hand of friendship (?) The PCB (“Helping the Church in Need”), headquartered in Königstein (Germany), funds charity projects in 120 countries. This is mainly assistance to the Catholic communities, but since 1992, the foundation has also been providing assistance to the Russian Orthodox Church.

    I would like to see a photo on the theme - "golden youth" at a party in an "elite club" in Grozny - January 2000, or a "golden" girl is waiting for a passing APC in the basement of Grozny. Unfortunately, we are unlikely to see it.

    Yes, it’s stupid to discuss such a topic. When there was a war in Afghanistan, many went to clubs and discos and simply enjoyed their lives, and here hatred of the rich was taken, they say the poor die in the war and the golden youth bastards.
    Although many do not recognize this, they want to live like that golden youth
    Life is such a thing not fair and there is nothing to be done.
    There is a film by Sergei Govorukhin Damned and Forgotten there he raised this topic.

      Patos89,

      Hardly. You see, when there was the USSR and the war in Afghanistan, Soviet society was more or less homogeneous, there was no such striking division in property and class status (yes, there were party members' children who hung out, but there were only a few of them). What is happening now in Russia is completely different - in fact, we have built a medieval model of society, and in its ugliest form there are "patricians" - untouchables who have access to everything and even have their own courts for them, they are not subject to generally accepted laws , and there are "plebeians" - 90% of the rest of the population, who feed and serve the "nobles" and their "golden children", and also fight for their interests.
      And there is no tendency to break this system, because for these "bloodsuckers" any change in the existing order of things is tantamount to death.

        You still remembered King Gorokh and how it was then. It feels like if where the war is going on, I should look like a vegetable. And you switched from the theme of the war, like how those cattle live, try to break out of these 90% and enter 10% of the population advise this current. It is clear that this should not be, but everyone does the authorities so that it always does. That the hatred of the rich in Russia was almost always interesting.

          First, write at least coherently and logically, and then give advice.
          What is most interesting is the hatred of the rich in Russia has almost always been.

          Not to the rich, but to swindlers, because in Russia, honestly, you never make a fortune.

    Life is like that if you want something, then this should be added. Well, the society is satisfied with this situation in the country and, judging by the elections, the majority support the government. In the USSR everyone wanted freedom of jeans for traveling abroad, etc. By the way, a rich person in power will be kinder than a poor one.

        In general, about all, Stalin was rich. Beria, they were poor, and when they reached the power, they made a terror. You just don’t need to look for those to blame that you are poor, but you need to add goals

    "Golden youth", "the cream of society" ... They are more associated with the gold, which in Russia GOLDEN HUNDRED. And cream - - so it is known that it does not sink even in milk ...
    It’s a pity there are no photographs about how many Russian refugees from Chechnya still live ...

    here is a photo of Chechnya after being liberated from terrorists, one devastation, practically nowhere to live!
    And now? houses are rebuilt, right now and what was heaven and earth.
    That's why people there vote for United Russia and Putin. Therefore, all who are surprised at the high percentages during the elections are those simply glamorous ba-ras.

    PS: my personal observation, where there are most of all glamorous stupid youth, where there are more lesbians, gays and other persons with phase changes there are more against the current government, it was not the people who went to the swamp, but the "golden" youth, gays, glamorous *** * with their iPhones, golchidabana and others, even Mlyn flaunted and willingly told how expensive they bought trousers and a jacket in a fashionable atelier ... pzdets and they are against the state that provided their schizo needs O_O.

    Sorry I didn’t want about politics, the photo is excellent! Respect to the author, I just saw 13, 28 and 29 photos of how they went into the swamp later and how it differs from the real Russian people in all the other photos.

    A new test of youth for lice
    Is Dagestan getting ready for a big war?

    No. 11 (303) [“Arguments of the Week”]


    www.liveinternet.ru

    According to various sources, from 15 to 25 thousand troops of the Ministry of Defense and the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs with heavy armored vehicles were relocated to Dagestan from Chechnya. The authorities are confused in the testimony: either the usual rotation, or the creation of the Temporary operational group of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in the republic.

    П
    eyewitnesses reported the relocation. They counted more than 300 units of various equipment, including armored personnel carriers, Urals, command and staff vehicles. Earlier, T-90 tanks and multiple launch rocket systems were delivered to Dagestan from Chechnya.

    The official statement said that "part of the forces of the Temporary Operational Group of Bodies and Units will be redeployed from Chechnya to Dagestan, where the Temporary Operational Group of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia will be formed." And the Secretary of the Security Council of Dagestan, Magomed Baachilov, said that this was a "rotation."
