Russia focusing forced conscription on poor ethnic minorities? Sounds about white.

Putin's mobilisation looks asymmetrical:

1. Partial mobilisation in large cities, especially soft in Moscow & Petersburg
2. Total mobilisation in remote rural regions, especially ethnic ones

We don't have hard data yet, this mobilisation may include elements of ethnic cleansing

The original "Russ" were blonde, fair-skinned Scandinavians who came down from the Baltic Sea in the early Middle-Ages, about 900 AD, and settled along the Dnipro-river in Ukraine, following it south towards the Black Sea, where they traded with the Byzantine Empire in Turkey.

From this north-south-axis through Ukraine, the russian kingdom, the "Kievan Russ", expanded militarily to the West until they reached the border of the kingdom of Poland, and they expanded militarily to the East to a few hundred miles beyond Moscow. The capital of the russian kingdom was switched from Kiyv to Moscow shortly therafter for political reasons.



This geographical area, Ukraine, Belarus, and eastern Russia, is the historical heartland of the russian culture. And this racial prejudice continues to this day. St. Petersburg and Moscow get all the money, while 25% of Russians don't have a proper toilet to shit in.

For example, Caucasians are looked down upon by real ethnic Russians. "Caucasians" (like the Chechens) have pale skin and black hair, while ethnic Russians have pale skin and blonde hair. Caucasians are second-class citizens, not openly discriminated, but everybody knows that a Caucasian's place is NOT at the top.

But what about the rest of Russia, to the east of Moscow?
They pay their taxes, pay for Moscow, and get nothing in return.

Central Asia is rich with ancient and medieval kingdoms and civilizations, ancient ruins, archeological sites... (the Persians, the Bactrians, the Moghul, the Tartarians, the Mongols, to name but a few) Tons of history. Some of it even dating back to Alexander the Great in 300BC. But culturally they are not russian....................................................... which is why they don't really count.





When the russian government thinks about the well-being of Russia, about the russian people and russian culture, they think about St. Petersburg and Moscow. They don't think about the rural rest of the country, full of non-russian conquered ethnicities, where streetlights, tarmac roads, toilets with water-flush and washing-machines are unaffordable luxuries.

Those people have only two uses: Paying taxes to finance yet another gaudy luxury-building for Moscow's elite, and being sent to Ukraine as cannon-fodder.
