is russia ready for the olympics?
http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/worldviews/wp/2014/02/04/journalists-at-sochi-are-live-tweeting-their-hilarious-and-gross-hotel-experiences/
@StacyStClair
My hotel has no water. If restored, the front desk says, "do not use on your face because it contains something very dangerous." #Sochi2014
Water restored, sorta. On the bright side, I now know what very dangerous face water looks like. #Sochi #unfiltered

People have asked me what surprised me the most here in Sochi. It's this. Without question ... it's ... THIS.
The disarray seems to contradict repeated promises from both Russian and Olympic officials that Sochi is ready for the games, despite terrorist threats, unfinished construction and concerns over human rights abuses in the country. The Sochi Olympics have also run way over budget — to a record
$51 billion
— which seems particularly remarkable when you consider that some of the work isn’t actually done. International Olympic Committee President Thomas Bach has of course denied that, insisting both that the “stage is ready” and that many concerns, including those over safety and construction, are overblown. Meanwhile, Dmitry Chernyshenko, president of Sochi's Olympic organizing committee, had this Twitter exchange with a CNN producer who complained that only one of the network's 11 requested rooms was ready for them:

Almost every room is missing something: lightbulbs, TVs, lamps, chairs, curtains, wifi, heat, hot water. Shower curtains are a valuable piece of the future black market here. (One American photographer was simply told, "You will not get a shower curtain.")

I'm kind of amazed by how they were even given the opportunity to host the event when they've got "NO GAYS ALLOWED" signs posted on every street corner.
Whoever decided that they deserved to hold this world-wide prestigious event are fucking idiots

russia is passing laws against homosexuality. basically state-sanctioned hate crime. this isn't comparable to a few hate crimes by random dipshits in canada.

lol, russian just wants to protect his culture against flamboyant western degenerate propaganda, it isnt a hate crime. gay is legal, attacking the gay person is not legal in russia, so why "state-sanctioned hate crime"?

there's no law that specifically saws it's ok to hurt gay people, but it happens frequently and the police don't care and often perpetrate the assaults themselves. you talk like gays are actually protected by police in russia or something, lol.

You guys live in the worst fucking country in this entire world that spreads it's shitty consumerism, imperialism, bigotry, racist, fascist garbage to the most remote reaches of this planet.
You should start doing something about your own backyard before pretending to preach to everyone else please. Literally the Hutus are on a pedestal compared to your country's track record.

Things are livable right now, give it 2 gens tho.. itll be dead. Each generation becomes weaker and weaker. Whoever says we're the best right now is out of their minds. We may have been for 20 years, thats it. Movies/Propoganda yay USA.

Humanity is evolving beyond war. Technology and science remove the need of it.
Once the oil industry is replaced by a sustainable energy source and the distribution of wealth happens there will be nothing to fight about.
Historically wars have been fought because of territory, natural resources and religion. All of those are becoming increasingly obsolete.
We are on our way to a utopian society. Unless some psychopath nukes the entire planet, I think we're gonna be alright.

Sure there will.
The same thing everyone has been fighting about for the last 8-10,000 years.
Religion.

You're a retard because Canada and similar countries are also grossly consumerist and the average Canadian benefits a lot more from imperialism than the average American since Canada's prosperity and the entire prosperity of the developed world is predicated on American military dominance propping up a global economic system based on exploitation and slavery.
