I recently talked to this one idiot, who accused me of being a "traitor" to Russia, because I have "assimiliated" into the culture that I live in.

The funny thing is, this so-called "patriot" of Russia also leaves outside of Russian Federation in a foreign country, but according to him hasn't "assimilated" into that culture and therefore hasn't betrayed his country.

How's he a patriot and how am I a traitor?

We both live outside of Russia, both do not pay any Russian taxes, both are not contributing a cent to Russia in any way, either physical or intellectual.

So just because he talks shit about the culture and he lives in and considers himself a "patriot" - he automatically is one.

What has he done for his country lately? Has he fed hungry Russian children, has he helped Russian government in any way? Or may be has given money to the elderly?

What is a "patriot"? To me, that's the person willing to sacrifice his life for his country. So if you leave outside of Russia - you are NOT sacrificing your life for Russia, how can you? Can you leave outside of your motherland and still be concidered a "patriot"?

If you want to help your country, you have do it while living and working in that country......simply attacking anyone who has a negative thing to say about your country (true or not) does NOT make you a "patriot".

What it does make you is an idiot and a lier.

Your country cares about one thing and one thing only - WHAT have you done for your country recently???....nothing else
