Badass MuthaF***

Still not quite there on the alphaness though...

I mean, he should at least get both the "cutie" AND the fortune-teller.

Good try nevertheless.

I guess he's trying to lock up that woman vote.

Post: #4

He should do some door to door to lockdown the woman vote if you naw'im sayn.

Haha I only see this working in Russia. It would be labeled as misogynist anywhere else .

Haha I just wanted to joke a little with the alpha\beta thing. Anyway , besides his political views , no one can deny that he is an Alpha son of a bitch , he fucks young cuties like everyday , and doesn't give a fuck to the point that he displays power over women even on "serious" political ads! The guy went even further than Berlusconi!

or he could be a closet gay , who knows...

If women actually respond to this ad, they should take away women's right to vote.

What if men respond to it, too?

To paraphrase Don Johnson's character from 80s "Miami Vice", who in some episode was teaching a young cop how to be a good undercover agent: "The secret to make them believe your story is to be the guy they secretly want to be."

Damn, my Russian language skills are almost completely gone, just understand a few words now. We need a translator. There is someone on this forum you claims to speak Russian. Come on Souvlaki , lets hear it.

Translation please.

I stopped trying to learn Russian years ago.

I just learned something.

This doesn't strike me as particularly alpha. It just underscores how beta and scared the US is to have anything that expresses male sexuality. Most of the world is like this.

I already think we should. Women are generally less principled than men and the result of their voting is the welfare state.

Women's voting aside, this ad doesn't seem to appeal to logic or reason - just emotions. It has the fortune teller, the young woman. It is a pretty idiotic ad (of course targeting females), albeit an interesting one.

Tuthmosis, it is not worth it. The ad is pretty retarded, like the rest of them. Creativity-wise this is the worst campaign Putin had in the last 12 years. But he has no say here. People who make decisions don't ask him anything, he is just a puppet. Really funny some people still confuse it with "alpha".

Unfortunately for Russia as a whole people there still fall for that "strong man" kind of shit.

But lucky for us

Though things are changing as a piece on BBC Newsnight reports.

This program on Channel 4 about the Putin cult was pretty good too:

Think its because he knows he's going to "win" the election, no matter what?

I've heard some speculations about this election being rigged, and that meshes pretty well with the allegations levied against his party back in December.

I wonder what causes some countries to have such widespread corruption, while others seem to escape that fate.

Its a mix of both cultural and historical roots of the country. My Country , Brazil , is corrupt as hell just like Russia , so I can relate to that and understand why it is how it is.

Yep, in the first round. See, the Achilles heel of KGB is their repetitiveness. If something worked for them the first time, they will do the same thing again and again.
