Wow, I must've really hurt your feelings in the other thread. Delighted.

I'm not sure how these comments have anything to do with the way Russia is being run these days.

"How does a whole country get to be so sociopathic?"

Consider me dumb but I still don't get the relation with Russian girls. I know quite a few of them and they don't strike me as particularly sociopathic. If you mean to say that such generalizations are not applicable then yes, of course not everybody in the country is like that, but at the same time I doubt you'd see young people throwing themselves in front of cars in order to be able to sue the drivers in many other countries. And that kind of behaviour has its roots in how the country is run, and most Russian people would agree with that. At least, my Russian friends do. People with skills in demand abroad leave in droves, the Russian mob is firmly in control and they can only be that way because the authorities are about as corrupt as they come. Compared to other countries that have managed to get rid of the so called communists former Russia and its component states have it worse than any of them.

I thought you were saying that sociopathy from the top can effect the entire society. However, you have specific mechanisms in mind having to do with the workings (or not) of law enforcement.

Is this meant to be sarcastic or serious?
Re:Dash-cams: Russia’s Last Hope For Civility And Survival O... by stcredzero on Friday February 15, 2013 @03:51PM (#5228574)
Not meant to be entirely serious, but I do think that seeing lots of sociopathic behavior in society does affect interpersonal behaviors.

Um, perhaps. And what exactly does this have to do with Russian girls?
Re:Dash-cams: Russia’s Last Hope For Civility And Survival O... by stcredzero on Friday February 15, 2013 @06:05PM (#5229264)
Oh sorry. Thought they were part of society.
