About 20 years ago in the early days of the web I used to browse websites about nuclear accidents and the like. Needless to say lots of these have disappeared or changed since, and I think some interesting material is probably lost. One of the stories I read concerned two Russian sailors attempting to steal expensive metals from a nuclear device (which thankfully had had the physics package removed). As I recall the story the device was resistant to their attempts at deconstruction, which led to them escalating to employment of a hammer, which led to rapid atomisation of the sailors after the high explosive trigger was activated.

I can confirm (I live in Russia for part of the year).

That "Soviet way" is there for many centuries already..

Well yes but the Soviets developed and created their own belief system/philosophy around manufacturing modernity and a new human being that would serve the comintern ideals.

Ah, don't listen to what people say, just look at what do they do and how do they live.

They have so much land - perhaps it gives a different perspective.
