A COLLABORATOR FROM KHERSON WHINES ABOUT HOW MISERABLE HER 'NEW LIFE' IN RUSSIA IS...
...and about how she wishes she could come back.
Here's a long drink of v@tnik tears, for you #NAFO fellas!
---
So, here's a collaborator from Kherson - I'm not going to name her, because I don't want to give her additional publicity. But she escaped to russia with other collaborators when Kherson was liberated.
And now here, below, you can hear her describing her new life in russia.
I can't be troubled with translating FORTY MINUTES OF WHINING, but I'll give you the highlights.

Most important of all, she says that...
She wants very much to come back (this is at 21:35 in the video), and if there was a chance to reverse time, then she would wish that the SVO never started.
She knows that people in russia will say that she is ungrateful, and that she was given 'this and that', but its not their life that was shaken 'like this' (she makes actions), it was her life.
She says further that in russia you can't even talk about problems (now that's a surprise ) - everyone is forced to say, 'Everything is fine, everything is fine.'

The rest of the video is basically about how much more miserable and inconvenient life is in russia. Here are some excerpts, below:
She whines that...
In Kherson they were not rich people, but in russia they are like beggars.
In Kherson there was a big house, a big garden, summer house, a garage - and in russia they have none of these things.

More areas in which she says russia does not compare with Ukraine...
Tools and appliances:
In Ukraine, she had all sorts of tools and appliances - screwdrivers, a glue gun, juicers - and in russia there is nothing.
In russia, you can't get anything in local stores, and when you buy online in shops like Ozone and Wildberries everything is very expensive - very much more so than she remembers from when she was in Ukraine.
Public transport:
She used to live on the outskirts of Kherson, and the transport system was good, but in russia they live far from the city and the transport is horrible.
You have to spend the whole day if you plan to go anywhere. The bus only comes once or twice in the day, so you wait for it, and so going anywhere takes your whole day.
Food:
In Ukraine she knew in which cafe to eat 'in order to feel good' (her exact words), and in russia she buys something to eat and it's so uninspiring that she falls asleep over it, and life in general is so uninspiring that she can't think properly.
Computer chairs (!) - yes, she's really whining about computer chairs:
In Kherson you can go to the city and buy any computer chair you like and every model is available, of every sort.
And in russia you go to a shop, and you have a choice between two models of chairs. That's it. Of course it's not like that in Moscow and St. Petersburg, but it's like that in her city.

And she says that she'll never have all the comforts again that she had in Ukraine...
...the sofas, the cupboards, the sports equipment (her exact words).
Things just cost too much and she earns too little. She would have to scrimp and save for years to attain even an echo of her lifestyle in Ukraine.
================
A personal note:
On a personal level, I find her manner of speaking and expressions VERY irritating. It took will to listen to her for forty minutes.
I trust people here will appreciate my sacrifices in bringing you this 'cheerful' message from inside russia.
