It is really difficult to believe morons like this exist.
I would argue that most people are almost completely oblivious to the world around them. This lady has been fed pro Russian propaganda her whole life so of course the real world is shocking. How could everything she was taught be wrong?
Instead of whining to the camera, they could just do a quick google search, with all the same questions, instead of blaming the whole world.
Instead, we got this "why are people so mean to russians, we are the best" overdramatic nonsense, because her daddy's money couldn't buy her something in the real world.
These are, of course, assumptions.
I know but they swamped my country when the war started and I can tell you with full and tragic confidence that this is legit (and even worse, typical)
Why are they a moron?
Because you have to be so deep up your own ass to purposefully ignore information about the atrocities committed by your country, that you could probably see the light through your mouth.
I sort kind of undertand brainwashed russians living in a russian bubble, with no access to outside information. Fine, you're fed shit all your life, so that's the only desert you've had and that's the only desert you want/need.
But this moron is out in the free world, and simply cannot underatand why, oh why could people be weary of russians? Truly the pinnacle of evolution.
Why is the same attitude not conveyed towards north korean escapees?
Do escapees of NK often express disbelief that the rest of the world dislikes the country they escaped from? Your question seems to be a non sequitur.
There's a difference between disliking the country and the people that emigrated from that country
North Korean escapees almost exclusively did so against the wishes of their government, and almost certainly have a dim view of them. This is likely reflected in the view other people have of them.
Russian citizens are almost all free to leave, and often still have a positive view of their home country.
That's a really interesting point. Maybe because the North Korean govt is seen as persecuting it's citizens. Therefore it's citizens are seen as the victims (despite some citizens being the perpetrators).
Whereas Russian citizens are seen as the perpetrators (as invading soldiers) along with the leadership and surrounding countries are seen as the victims.
So why target people emigrating AWAY from that?
While Russia is fascist as heck, it is still substantially easier to emigrate from Russia than it is to emigrate from North Korea. Also, while there is a powerful state media in Russia, they do not have complete (or near complete) control over every line of communication in and out of the country as is the case in North Korea. There's also the matter of relative wealth and ability to defy/evade government control by way of travel/media consumption/emigration.
