Russia used to be our enemies but in all reality it is a quite vibrant country with some really tough people and effin amazing food. There was a false dichotomy going on there for a long time but I for one am looking forward to an equitable arrangement with them via trump and some of that amazing Russian sour cream. I know a lot of Russian people who grew up there who live here now and they tell me I'd love it, they say it's nothing like what the media and politicos portray and it has frustrated them for decades. Sure it has it's problems I'd say our special snowflakes and tainted 20ish people are a glaring similarity. I truly think Putin has finally gasped a breath of relief at seeing the US pick a leader with some sense and balls.
As for the show, if you met any single one of my Rusky friends yeah- they're nuckin futz. I know a guy who forged a friggin cavalry saber out of steel he cut from a car fender with a sawzall. At the 24 hours of Lemons I hang with Sasha and his racing crew, Brognan his nephew races a 59 dodge with a 50 Nash front fender, a 57 caddy rear left fender, a polara grill runs a 360 v8 with a 3 on the tree manual and two jeep cherokee doors on one side.
These people are loony.
If it is at all legit, and likely some will be scripted, watch Russian videos on youtube of any kind and you will see what I mean. I have never seen the likes of Americanism "F*** yea" mentality out of any other country but Australia and Russia. We have a lot in common including punching animals in the face and getting hammered on the regular.
