1 replyOof. On one hand, deserves a laugh, it's 21st-century Russia, a country that keeps post-Brexit Britain and MAGA America looking sane. On the other hand, this took a terrific amount of work from researchers whom I presume care about their craft and aren't committing mass murder. Mocking it without more context feels mean.
