  1. The ability to win two world wars

    I’m not saying this as a joke, Russia basically views us as the only European nation they have never defeated

  2. They think the British Empire never died, it just got sneakier. They think there’s brits hiding behind every world event, same attitude as the Iranians. I reckon it’s in part our old reputation for espionage and soft power, and part James Bond. When I imagine french intelligence agents the best I can do is Rene from Allo Allo, or maybe an effete chain smoker armed only with ennui and a trench-coat.

  3. Russia has been obsessed with Britain since the 1800s, “The Great Game” was the fighting between us mad lads and those shit cunts. They still haven’t gotten over losing to us *every single time*.

  4. I am so glad I was born in East Germany and can speak Russian. The rage porn their state TV produces is highly enjoyable. They are seething because Germany is advancing human rights and gets all their good doctors🤣

  5. Salisbury Cathedral. Famous not just in Europe, but in the whole world. It’s famous for its 123-metre spire, it’s famous for its clock, the first one of its kind ever created in the world, which is still working.

  6. The ability to be biased towards people who speak perfect French.

  7. Why do they have such a hard-on for the British? It feels like every time some Russian talking head talks about attacking the west, it’s just Britain. The graphics they use are just their nuclear coverage of the British Isles, never France, Germany, or even more curiously the US.

    Why do they hate Barry so much?

  8. why does russia have professional fear mongering. How does it even benefit them ?

  9. This is what pulling your weight in Ukraine does Pierre

    Step it up a bit and you might get at least a passing mention

  10. Easy target for propaganda, they haven’t been making many friends lately (or ever).

  11. I get a ban from Reddit every time I call for the end of russian culture, but I’m fucking right.

  12. # What the Brits have, that we don’t ??

    Bad weather, shitty food, ugly woman, it’s mercy killing!

  13. I have no idea why the Russians have got such a rage-stiffy for us, but I find it hilarious.

  14. If you ever want a small chuckle go over to r/AskaRussian and search ‘British’ or the name of a British historian of Russia like Orlando Figes and look at the comments.

    Here’s a fave: https://www.reddit.com/r/AskARussian/s/BBw6Ybeduf

    They still think in the same 19thC terms of the world, which probably explains them.

    They think the British are the ultimate global baddies, quite like the Iranian regime also does.

  15. We are Europe’s main character no one gives a fuck about anyone else

  16. We have a annual “Fall out Window, off Balcony” tournament – we’ve won year on year.

    They give us a good run for our money though.

  17. Russians well and truly are the scum of the earth.

  18. Hot summers… nah I’m joking, I also don’t know

  19. Funny thing is that many Europeans actually think that Russia wants peace.

    Many Greeks actually love Putin and blame Ukraine for the war. So do many in Bulgaria, in Germany etc. In fact most moles in our intelligence services do tend to be rusophiles.

    The Russians only understand force. Deterrence is the only thing guaranteeing peace.

  20. A relatively large stretch of water between them and the russians.

  21. Lads, I might be a bit tipsy, but wouldn’t it be good fun if we went and kicked some gopnik arse together?

    Bring some Port João

  22. For me it’s more of the same as long as they don’t look at Gibraltar. 😂

  23. Right it’s a bit about their rivalry with good Ol’ Uncle Sam.

    The UK is their “creator” and because of it, part of the Russian Ultranationalist Movement sees itself in a conflict with not just America but ALL the Anglos and their “Liberal Decadence”.

    That is why you have things like “Comrade Hitler” where a Russian Guy goes back in time and takes over Hitler body.
    Part 2 is “Comrade Hitler: Hang Churchill”.

  24. Most of the Russian intellectual class have a deep seated hatred for the UK because we always see through them and stop their bullshit, and also because we don’t bow to their demands and be corrupt, unlike most of Europe unfortunately. We’re also the only country they fought in wars but never defeated
