I have visited Russia many times and nearly all of the surrounding countries .
Forget the cheap jokes about being a Commie etc .Nonsense .

But I am sad to report that for a variety of reasons Russian youngsters are more intelligent , savvy and smart versus their US ( and UK ) counter parts . And by a country mile .
Not even a competition .

Orwell is joint Top of the Pops for top 20th century novels / authors wherever you live .
As I said , they are far from backward and also much more hard working .

Russians lived Orwell’s 1984 during the Soviet era. It now appears to be Americans turn to suffer government tyranny.

Its great that a leading socialist author is still popular today.

My experience of Moscow is that it is not a communist country. It looked more like the Klondike when I was there. Huge inequalities.
