This is the type of thing I’m talking about when I say that Westerners have no idea about the dark depths of Russian nihilism. (Just as Russians have no idea about Western idealism. When encountering Western appeals to any ideal or human decency, the Russian mind assumes westerns are either lying in an attempt to trick them, or hopelessly naive an therefore weak.)
Russians were boasting about getting fancy European cosmetics recovered from the wreckage of MH-17 on which about 300 civilians were killed.
