We might have shit infrastructure.
Thieving oligarch bastards hoarding all the power.
Bureaucracy and corruption.
Pathetic, stifled people and hopelessness.
No culture or successes of our own that's not the remnants of USSR.
Herd mentality and collectivism rejecting any individuality.
Rampant alcoholism and devalued education.
Any and all smart and capable people fleeing the country for a better place.

But. But.. at least we don't have black people.
