i have encountered some polish teens who want to learn about the language, culture, and don’t have any problem with the people, but i have known that some polish adults HATE russia due to all the wars and how in russia, polish had to learn russian.

      And goodies. Lots and lots of goodies for people to get jealous of.

      And it doesn’t matter how it’s acquired, as long as they can reproduce it.
      A country selling goodies you could only dream of “can’t be that bad” and they could also sell you better weapons to defend you.

      Actually, I would argue that goods trump truth, and the best economic system produces and supplies the most goods of all types in demand by the populace in the shortest amount of time sustainably.

      Would you make this same argument for pro-western propaganda?
