Russia as it is. Moscow. Observations of a local

"The current homeless man has one leg removed up to the buttock, the other, dead, swollen, crimson-yellow-brown, the oily colour of a dead dolphin on an Anapa beach, naked on display, a sight I've not seen much worse than this. Three days ago he took a big shit, in the most crowded and busy place, between the bus platform, electric scooter parking and the exit from the station building, three piles of orange shit, obviously just unloaded by hands from the pram, were lying on the passage, inevitably touched by inattentive feet, the culprit of the holiday was fragrancing nearby, as if nothing had happened, and some fragments spread by citizens smelled even on the escalator. Today I accidentally glanced at it while getting off the bus - the rotting leg was thickly covered with huge swarming cadaver flies".

This is how they treat their cats, I think not much better than their humans:
"I witnessed the practice of drowning kittens. This was done immediately after birth, very quickly, the cat was left with one or two kittens, the largest ones. These kittens grew up strong, and they could be easily adopted, and the cat did not have time to understand how many kittens there were in total. Perhaps not the best practice in the world, but in the absence of the possibility of sterilizing the cat, it allows not to breed a lot of homeless cats, sick, skinny and dirty, which the rest of the villagers then try to poison with whatever they can find, because they steal chickens, so the homeless cats die a long, painful death."
