A young bright-eyed journalist is excited about his big break covering the 2014 olympic events. He calls his mom before he gets on the plane and she tells him how proud of him she is. He takes a selfie of himself and the person next to him on the airplane. He has several tweets all lined up to be fired out on his cellphone once they land and have cellphone signal again. Upon leaving the plane he pulls out his nice camera to get a picture of his surroundings. A wild dog appears almost as if from thin-air to snatch it and flee into the woods. The journalist chases the dog into the woods despite security protests of, "No do not chase dog! Is trick!" His absence is barely noticed for the rest of the games in Sochi. Four years later during the 2018 Russian games there are reports of wild men running with the packs of wild dogs. Several people on the internet laugh about it and make Russia jokes. The cycle begins anew.

Or have a succesful space program. russia is powered by alcohol, depression and suffering. for tasks whose temperament matches this; like satellites, colonizing siberia, or killing germans; then the russians are geniuses. presented with effete internationalist decadence like the olympics, their fundamental nature rebels and a subtle tone of "gently caress you faggots. i dont give a poo poo" creeps into everything

I think a few accidents are acceptable in those circumstances, even ignoring that the US has had a ton of astronauts blow/burn up too. both the us and the russians took the technology from the nazis

bathroom sounds posted:Give this dog the gold. 2 March 2008 - Voting day - let's vote on Putin and the dolphin! "Along with the 2008 Russian presidential election, there was an unofficial referendum held in Sochi to elect the mascot for the 2014 Winter Olympics. 270,000 voters along with their ballots received a coupon with four mascot candidates: Ded Moroz, a snowflake, a polar bear and a dolphin. According to a representative of Sochi city administration, the majority of Sochians voted for the dolphin". Why not a dog?

Much of the relevant technologies still needed to be developed, despite the original German breakthroughs, but it's a lot easier when you have access to the leading experts in the world.

Part 2) German scientists. quote:Because Hitler was a massive screwup who decided to divert forces to Kiev while at the same time attempting to invade Russia, thereby losing a few weeks before the Russian winter set in and frankly no one wins when they attempt to invade Russia. You're right, the Germans should have left a whole Soviet army to threaten their unprotected flanks driving towards Moscow.
