>>15337745>Russian culture is a culture of state, not people.Yes and no. On surface, what you said is dangerously accurate. But in depth no ammount of governmental incentive can make the best representatives of our nation give them their discoveries and inventions.
So we gave them sputnik only after they admitted that stalin was a faggot and kinda promised not to ever be this way by the freedoms of Khrushchev's ottepel. And when they treat us as slaves again, fuck those fucks, if they shit on their own people, let them reign over the kingdom of shit. Every talented person is worried about his inventions getting into wrong hands, so many prefer to dig it into the ground than to enrich those who don't deserve it with something they could be unjustly proud of.
