There's a very tall list of reasons to not go to Russia and their toilet papers isn't very high on it.
I don't know...
My list goes:
Their toilet paper
I might criticize Putin
I might criticize the government
Well, I wouldn't worry about 2 and 3 that much. It's just that as a foreigner, especially if you are from the US, you will most definitely fall under the surveillance of FSB and the cops will look at you twice, but they're not paid half-decent enough to actually give a shit and do their job properly. They might harass you here and there but if you don't do anything stupid like protesting in red square or doing selfies in front of military bases, then they'll have nothing against you. I imagine that's not that much worse than living in the US under CIA's umbrella and trigger happy cops. Other than that, it's not nearly an extreme hellhole like NK, Afghanistan or Syria that people make it sound like. In fact, you can get by in Moscow or St. Petersburg without a guide or translator just fine. I'd rather advise to watch out for the tourist traps(the usual), and to avoid getting out of the city limits and into the suburbs because of the much increased crime levels.
Ah, and put the fact that for every dollar you spend there, you put 20 cents straight into Putin's pocket into that list...
And also that you'd probably need a visa and it's a hassle...
And that you'd probably need a Russian friend to get you hooked up with the basics and avoid going through the bureaucracy - like with currency exchange, credit card, carrier plan, etc...
Also that weather is rather harsh there...
And also that it's probably the dirtiest country on earth because city planners didn't zone out lawns and parks properly therefore the mud gets spread absolutely everywhere...
And that internet is half-broken, with half sites censored while the others block everyone from Russian IP's because sanctions...
And that Ukraine might not let you in afterwards...
And that you'd for sure be questioned by your homecountry's intelligence services...
And that's about all that I can think of.
And you'd likely be held prisoner as a trading chip for Russian murderers.
Well, it that case you're referring to, the guy was actually snooping around which would fall into doing stupid things. But, just in case, just this once, here's a free get out of jail free card: If you ever got caught just say that you're an orthodox christian who came to Russia to enjoy based traditional culture in this bastion of anti-woke-ism and family values, and complain about some dumb shit like how western liberal agenda prevents you from hitting your wife or something. They can't put you on TV while you are in prison, so they'll have to let you go.
But I saw Mr Bald and Bankrupt do it several times! And he only went to jail twice!
He did use the get out of jail card, though, so it's all good. But I would advise to not try use it more than once.
Does the FSB have the good toilet paper?
That would be helpful.
oh bless your heart, you sweet summer child
Yes, and the Earth is flat because you never went to space to confirm it's a globe. Stupid people don't know they're stupid, it's only a problem for everyone around them. Get help.
girl, there are pictures of north koreans gathering GRASS because they don't have food. And they will kill you or put you in a camp if you try to leave.
You know she's not the only defector there is, right?
You know what? Fuck you. I've got better things to do than argue with tankies who imagine that authoritarian regimes are good just because they have red flags and claim to be communist. Do a service to humanity and yourself, and stay out of political discussion until you've aquired some education on these issues.
