Честно стянуто из обсуждения в стиме под комментами о пожертвованиях игры war of mine
По мне так лучше не скажешь.
This is my profession. This has happened historically.
I occupied Siberia. Now they produce oil, gas, aluminum and a bunch of other useful things there. Now there are cities in which there are multi-storey houses, kindergartens, hot water and hospitals. Now it is impossible to sell women there for a bundle of sable skins, as it was before the Russians.
I occupied the Baltic States. He built factories and power plants there. Instead of their funny farms. The Baltic States made high-class radio equipment and cars, were famous for perfumes and balms. I was asked to leave there. Now sprats are mined there, and most of the able-bodied population cleans eurounitases.
I occupied Central Asia. He built canals, factories, spaceports, hospitals and stadiums there. Space rockets and airplanes, oil and gas and chemical equipment were built there, copper, oil and gold were mined, wheat and cotton were grown for the whole country. I was asked to leave there. Now American loans are extracted there, cannabis and opium poppy are grown, and half of the able-bodied population has left to work as janitors or on the construction sites of the former occupiers.
I occupied Ukraine. And there I also built factories and power plants, bridges and factories, mines and universities. Ukraine made aircraft engines, ships, tanks and cars. I was asked to leave there. Now Maidan is being produced there in commodity quantities. And they don't produce anything else there, but they are sure that Europe is waiting for them with open arms.
And you know what else? I'm sick of apologizing for being an occupier. Yes, I am an occupier. By right of birth. I know the device of the Kalashnikov assault rifle better than the device of the milk nipple. I am an aggressor and a bloodthirsty freak. Be afraid.
It was I who lived under the Mongol-Tatars for 300 years — but where are those Mongol-Tatars now?
It was I who burned Moscow so as not to give it to Napoleon Bonaparte — but how did Bonaparte end up?
I was sitting in a trench near Volokolamsk, in Stalingrad and burning in a tank near Kursk,
realizing that it was incredibly difficult, almost impossible to keep the Germans, but there was simply no other way — where are those Germans today, where is their ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ Hitler?
I am an occupier, but in civilized Europe they did not know about it, so everyone came to my house who was not lazy. Turks, British, Poles, Germans, French.... There was enough land for everyone - 2.5 meters for each. The Americans are really afraid to come, they hope for missiles and a fifth column, but we have a lot of land for them, too — there is enough for everyone, with an abundance.
I was, am and will be a Russian occupier — I don't need someone else's, but I will never give my own to anyone.
I don't need your hypocritical "freedom"—freedom from being human. To be a human being, I don't need your rotten democracy of capitalism, your duplicitous concepts and all that you call Western "values" — perversions, vices, deception and endless greed are alien to me. I have other interests.
The Russian person is more interested in space, education, medicine, science and the development of creative abilities of each person.
A Russian person likes to create.
I'm politely warning you for the last time!
Don't get in my way — I'm building peace, I love peace, but I know how to fight better than anyone.
I'm Russian! I'm tired!
Tired of apologizing, tired of being responsible, tired of being ashamed, tired of feeling ashamed! For what?..For the fact that the slave system disappeared from Asia?
For the fact that Latvia, Estonia, Lithuania rolled like cheese in butter?
For the fact that, defending Port Arthur, they exchanged 15 thousand Russians for 110 thousand Japanese?
For that, the defense of Petropavlovsk-Kamchatskiy in 1854, about 1,000 militia, losing 40 people, repulsed the attack of three times forces, sending in the grave or on the bed 400 opponents, and for the fact that their commander - Anglo-Saxon shot?
Because Cyprus, Bulgaria, Greece liberated from the Turks?
For something that is not given to destroy the Serbs?
For the fact that fulfilling a peacekeeping duty, 15 thousand were exchanged in Afghanistan for 200 thousand?
For the fact that 90 paratroopers did not allow 2500 militants to break through the height of 776?
For exchanging 84 people for 400?
For the fact that two battalions of mercenaries in Grozny could not destroy the assault squad of the Maykop brigade?
For the fact that the Soviet army liberated Europe from fascism? Maybe I should apologize for Bayazet?
For the Brest fortress?
For the "attack of the dead"?
For the destroyer "Novik" or the leader "Tashkent"?
Or maybe before the Mongols - for the fact that we dropped the yoke?
Or for Alexander Nevsky, for having lowered European knights to the bottom of Lake Peipsi?
For the fact that Anna Yaroslavna taught Europe to use a fork and wash at least once a month, and not once every six months?
Or maybe I should apologize for the ninth parachute company of the 345th Guards Separate Parachute Regiment, which took the fight at an altitude of 3234 in Afghanistan?
What do I have to apologize for here as a Russian?!
For the fact that, despite everything, we have preserved honor, pride and humanity?
For the fact that our rulers do not allow us to be lowered to the level of Somalia?
For the fact that my great-grandfathers knocked out the Japanese and Americans from the Far East?
I got it!..
I must apologize for the fact that unwashed, downtrodden and uneducated Russia gave the world Tolstoy, Herzen, Gorky, Gogol, Lomonosov, Chernyshevsky, Gagarin Korolev, Tsiolkovsky, Krylov, etc.!
Yes. I'm tired. Russian Russian, and I'm tired of apologizing for being Russian. For the fact that the blood of those who nailed the shield to the gates of Constantinople flows in me, those who destroyed the Roman Empire, who mastered 1/6 of the earth's land, those who saved Europe from the Tatar-Mongols and fascists, those who drove through the streets of Paris, those who saved the future USA from Britain on ships(yes, yes, that too!)...
You can list a lot, but ... every state has pages of history that you can be proud of, but for some reason only Russia should be ashamed of its history and sprinkle ashes on its head! And to whom? Before Europe, which destroyed the Incas, Aztecs, Mayans, burned people at the stake, cut out half of Africa, and sold the rest into slavery!
I wonder what we have to do to finally be forgiven by everyone "humiliated" by us?
Maybe we should stop writing about our story in an apologetic and self-deprecating tone?
Personally, I'm tired of apologizing! It's time to learn to be proud of who you are!
I am Russian, and I want my children to be proud of the country in which they were born.
Sincerely, Russian occupier.
