I never use the term “shithole country”. First because, I don’t know, it’s often used to address poor African countries, and those in particular are fucked because of direct consequences of Western policies and colonialism.
Second, because it was used by fucking Trump and I’d rather not.
But Russia really is a shithole country, Jesus. A grim, evil, arrogant, fucked up, good for nothing shithole country.
i mean if the shoe fits: the original implication was countries who receive foreign aid, and considering the skew of federal money towards red states……
Not to mention all the young people who would be better in research and engineering than to getting thrown away on an impossible front.
There are many smart and promising people in Russia, like in any other country, and it’s sad that the government decided the best use of them is to be dead.
I’m sure this will improve the next attempt and will not cause brain drain at all

I like coopting the phrase to shithole states – the ones dumb enough to vote for him.
