My favorite controversial opinion is that Russia ain’t Europe, becauseI was gonna say every nation and continent is dysfunctional in its own way. Also there are a lot of Nations in Europe and some of them are f***ed up.
Like I have actually looked into moving to Cyprus but the constant fighting between the Greeks and Turks is a major turn off.
Also I couldn't get anyone in my family to agree to move with me, but still the fighting is a thing.
1) neutral take - for better or worse Russians see themselves as different from Europeans to similar extent that Brits consider themselves different from the so-called continental Europe, while being such a huge landmass
2) biased take - Europe is not a real continent. Tectonic plate is Eurasia. Europe is therefore a cultural concept. And Russia doesn’t fit the bill.
