Friendly reminder, Russia flourished under the rule of Peter the Great.
Peter the Great was a Russian king who traveled to the west to get enriched by our culture, so he could travel back to Russia, and spread it there.
Fun Fact: St. Petersburg was built under the instruction and detail of Peter, who copied the themes from France.
So Russia, don't you think it's time to stop being edgy fags, and come join us, and flourish once more?

This isn't the 17th century. The only thing the West has to offer anyone now is LGBTQAZHS, feminism and worshiping niggers.

Oh boy, OP it's nice to see a fellow Peter the Great fan posting on /pol/.
I highly recommend to all of you Robert K. Massie's "Peter the Great: His Life and World", one of in my opinion the greatest books ever written. You have no excuse to be alive on this Earth and not be reading it if you haven't yet done so.

I would really like the term for this logical fallacy. I see it used so much. Like when people say: Omg the founding fathers were liberals! So conservatives should be too!

About to read this for my history class, I have to do a review of it. I'm looking forward to it.

This. We don't want what you are offering. The west is pure degeneracy now.

It's not just because you're mexican?
Russia is flourishing just fine without our degeneracy.

Peter was demonically possessed and mass murdered those of his population who he suspected of being able to defy him by enslaving them, working them to death in the construction of St P, and burying them in the outer wirks of the city. Peter was an Oriental despot who killed and tortured everyone and broke the Church.

Keeping with Western tradition Peter also learned how to throw huge, decadent ragers with his court. He forced his nobles to dress French and participate in party farces, including mock coronations featuring a mentally ill man for the Pope. He got rid of the harems where royal women had been segregated. He shat on orthodox church authority. Also, he loved dwarves and had them hide around the palace and scare people.
I can just imagine the russian /pol/acks back then ranting about his degeneracy to themselves.
