The Eastern Border

The terminal stage of Homo Sovieticus

In this episode, you'll find out why people are willing to go to certain death for 20,000$, why more and more of them are aged 40 - 60, what kind of people they are and what's on their minds. Independent Russian journalists at "Vyerstka" just published an incredibly powerful piece, which I decided to give you in full. Because most western media will just ignore it - and those that will take notice are almost guaranteed to misunderstand it. This is a very existential episode, obviously. And hopefully thought provoking.
