"Most of the areas where Russia is fighting are full of ethnic Russians and they literally asked for Russian peacekeepers in 2022 because Kiev kept attacking them."

You are wrong on multiple accounts. First they are not "full" of ethnic Russians. Ethnic Russians make up a MINORITY of the population.

Second, there is no credible evidence that ANYONE was asking for Russian peacekeepers.

Third, there is no evidence Kiev "kept attacking them".

So, you are entirely full of bullshit, which is what I would expect from a Russian shill.

In my lifetime you could open a bank account with just a name, ditto for renting an apartment, and pay for everything in cash.

This guy is screwed unless he's only a guest of a patron.

Crime was lower and people were more responsible back then too.

All this control grid surveillance still hasn't caught the Building 7 people.

Maybe it's possible to decide a course of action was a bad idea and reverse it?

Try listening.
Try acknowledging.
Try reflecting.
Try redirecting.
Try doing the work of actual empathy, not just the performative convenient pseudo-empathy that people talk about on social media but only apply to those who already believe like you.

All of those are fantastic suggestions; however, I would add another suggestion that is likely to trigger everything you are suggesting: Go live in a politically stable foreign land for a while. Meet the people. See how they do things. It will be vastly different than what you are used to... and yet, you will still see that they value family, integrity, etc no less than you and your country do.

If you are a hateful shithead... don't even bother. You will find nothing but confirmation of your biases.

"The chances of someone being born with excellent skills is equal everywhere"

This is a nice rhetorical assertion, and one I'd like to agree with, but it's (unfortunately, for both the skilled and those in less advanced areas) provably false.

Skill directly correlates to IQ at a population level. The IQ of European-native peoples, Chinese, Japanese, and Jewish peoples is in the 100-105 range average. Africa, India, and the Middle East (to a lesser degree)? Not true at all. A full SD or more different. You've got a huge problem with inbreeding throughout India and the Middle East, for instance. This means that your average person is not going to have the same chance of being "born with excellent skills".

Of course, this is also not without discounting things like upbringing and environment, and it undoubtedly has some play in the matter.

As for this policy, it has absolutely nothing to do with letting the best and brightest immigrate. It's clearly reactionary due to unfettered refugees and other unskilled immigrants who can't speak the language, don't want to speak the language, and bring obscene levels of crime to what would otherwise be an idyllic socialist utopia.

In what ways do you find it superior?

For me, Grok has been pretty consistent at making some pretty wild code recommendations and not following specifications.

It's not like Gemini, which will get stuck implementing things and then get into a histrionic panic loop, but it's not nearly as good as gpt5.1 in implementing correct, complete code per specification.
