You have raised important points. The demographic deficit is hitting all nations, but less so in Africa and Latin America. Russia is suffering from it greatly, but all Western nations are grappling with the problem and rather unsuccessfully.
The BRICS nations recognize the economic fault lines but they too need to address the problem of population replacement levels being insufficient for their nations to remain viable entities in the future. People seem to have little hope and little confidence in their own future, and so cannot commit or will not commit to fullfilling their primary human obligation which is to reproduce. The WEF is pushing for depopulation in all kinds of manner - pandemic, Great Reset, wars, food shortages, energy shocks, inflation, unemployment, digital identity, cashless societies, etc etc. Most people do not care. They don't give a fig. The urbanization concentration in Russia and depopulation of the countryside plays into this scenario even there.
Worldwide, cities have become cesspools. 17 years ago I took a river tour of the Yangtze just as the Three Gorges Dam was being completed. Thousands of people who had been farmers were forced by the government to move from their traditional homelands into Chongqing - where they would be hated minorities. The systems established during the Enlightenment can no longer succeed in the 21st century.
1) Fr Joseph Gleason runs russian-faith.com - you might have some luck contacting the team there. Definitely a clergy recommend might get you some freedom from the spooks. Love to see if I can convince you to opt out of Marcionism and become a good Churchgoing youngin' by then.
2) As I was part of the "vile schismatics" of the ROAC when I lived in Russia, I used to go to Suzdal a lot. I bring this up because it's a hop and skip away from Vladimir. Vladimir is 111 miles away from Moscow. Both Suzdal and Vladimir, despite their deep historical significance, barely qualify as suburbs on a developmental level. The air and area is fresh and clean. They are not meaningfully connected to Moscow unless you commute to work by train, which takes a couple hours each way.
A person living in Vladimir would be wholly disconnected from the city of Moscow otherwise-- it's roughly the same distance from Mega City NY to Scranton, PA. It's a LOT of space between.

I mean I usually just nod along when I speak to and hang out with the Orthodox. It's not their fault that they got duped by the Jews. And they're too invested in the hoax to opt out. My soul, however, is in my own keeping, and I won't consign it to the Jewish demon Yahweh.
Yeah Vladimir I've heard good things. Golden ring and all.
Thanks for the clarification. I'd never heard of Marcion. I have been reading much about the Cathars, lately; but presumed the cult had died out and disappeared.

Thanks for the intelligent post.

How were the Orthodox (christians?) duped by the Jews?
Don't Christians also worship YHWH?
Rolo is a Marcionist. So he believes that the God of the NT isn't Yahweh.
Thanks for the clarification. I'd never heard of Marcion. I have been reading much about the Cathars, lately; but presumed the cult had died out and disappeared.
I've written about Marcion before on this blog.
I'm new, here. Nice to meet you, Rolo.
The Cathar and Bogomils inherited Marcionist belief as Marcionism itself died out.
I'll be darned.
That's nuts. There are almost as many people in Moscow as in Canada.
