What are the reasons for the dislike of Russia by the Western European ethnic community, including its products in North America, Australia, etc.? Moreover, this rejection did not begin with the USSR - but has thousand-year roots. And the point, of course, is not just nationalism, which is common for any ethnic group - the attitude towards the peoples of, for example, Finland, Hungary or the Baltic states is much more tolerant. Maybe it’s the unbearable (for others) Russian mentality (at the core of Russians) - but, let’s say, Indians are not so categorical. Or due to cultural and economic underdevelopment (Russian) - even if this is so, the consequence may be disdain (swagger), which is undoubtedly present, but not dislike. Or maybe this is paranoia, resulting not from a mental disorder (illness), but from the inability to imagine that other strong peoples, inherent in themselves (Western Europeans), lack strong urges to live well at the expense of others. Due to their education, which implies friendship with logic, they should have noticed among their eastern neighbors the eternal lack of Western European prosperity in the presence of military power and concluded that there was a fairly high level of what is defined by the concept of altruism. Then this is irritation associated with the reluctance to further increase this level (of altruism) and become more concerned about the welfare of Western Europeans. In any case, it seems that in this dislike, in addition to paranoia, there is fear of another kind. Surely this can be found out from the ethnogenesis of Western Europeans and the history of their neighborhood (cohabitation) with the Russians and their ancestors - the tribes of the Scythian circle.
