Yes and that is exactly why the scales fell from my eyes after I escaped from Russian to Finland in year 2000. In the long run, I found the Finns to be more cynical and less generous than the Russians. If, when I was a wanted-man by the FSB/KGB in Russia in year 2000 - IF at that time I had remained in Russia, then I could have found some Russian friends to give me sanctuary. But the Finns treated me, well, like the worst kind of English would do, sending me politely to my doom in the coldest way of "purely White people." I learned a lot from that. I learned to trust a good Russian - even if he might be a bit Asiatic - before I trust any purely "White" person in the West, any day. If I ever had to entrust my life to any stranger, I'd trust a Russian long, LONG before I would trust a Finn, or any other Scandinavian, or a Kraut, OR an Englishman! Heh, now I'm thinking that maybe I SHOULD convert to the Russian Orthodox Church, who (and whose members) have been more charitable to me than any Western Catholics or Protestants have ever been.
