I work out quite regularly, and the one thing that I do is "raise" my testosterone by limiting my sexual activities for a week or two at a time. It makes me slightly aggressive, but it also greatly improves my sex life and my workout regimen. And using my free time to do productive activities like entrepreneurship and investment, interesting and fun activities like rock climbing or surfing, and even (relatively) mundane activities like reading, building lego contraptions, or fixing up my house makes my life infinitely interesting than someone who is hooked to a video game.

In my eyes, until you have a child of your own, you're still a kid. It knocks you out of the center of your universe.

And in my eyes you are still a kid until you see your whole country destroyed, and you have moved to a place with language, culture and traditions are fundamentally incompatible with ones you lived with before, the place in large part populated by ignorant, arrogant, intellectually and ethically underdeveloped assholes whom you hate with the deepest and purest form of hatred that you have ever thought of being possible.

Or something like that -- it's easy to make pompous, self-serving claims if you have even a tiniest grain of truth somewhere buried in them.

Look, it's well known that the Soviets sat on the Chernobyl accident as long as they could.

It is "well known" among writers and readers of anti-Soviet propaganda.

In reality, they simply did not know what exactly to report, because without measurements, it would be interpreted as "everyone, RUN!!!" by at least half of the country. They could organize initial measurements better -- I ended up getting results a week after the disaster with homemade ionizing radiation meter before the government had said anything definite -- but it was the usual incompetence and lack of equipment that most people in government didn't even know how to locate.
