Based. I'm proud of you anon. I don't hate Eastern Europe. Far from it. I worked in Romania and Ukraine for a few month long gigs and some of the best people I am friends with are from there. Solid, intelligent, hard working and fit.

I am just hopelessly cynical about the corruption there. For instance, in Bucharest some fucking 17 year old punk kid drives his car drunk and kills some mother and kids in broad daylight at a crosswalk. Dad is pissed and raises hell. The kid is some local gangster / warlords nephew and some shit so the police give him like $100 bail and he gets his passport back so he fucks off to some tropical paradise for the rest of his life. Dad is fired from his job because he goes on local TV to expose corruption and is beat up in his driveway in broad daylight. Cops do nothing. The journalist is beat up and fired for exposing it. Cops do nothing. Oh they did, they sent both the journalist and dad a bill for the extra investigative efforts they put in on the case bankrupting both of them.

This is a true story and it happens all the time over there, and Romania is at least SOMEWHAT functional. Imagine what its like in Belarus or Kazahkstan? Western fags have no idea how fucking lucky we have it. I have no problem paying high rent to not deal with that shit daily.
