  1. Actually , you CAN join the Russian military - there are many foreigners who did (I mean since conflict started). Until the end of the last year , contracts were made for a period of 6 months , but since than it changed - one has to serve until special military operation is done (or , if the war breaks out , you can't just leave). After finished 6 months of service , everyone (talking about foreign citizens) will receive citizenship and a plot of land. Salaries and bonuses for military personal are pretty incentivizing (quite higher than average) and there are other benefits too. After regular service , you become a reserve (there are very precise conditions and regulations about everything related to military service). There are some Americans (with and without prior military experience) who are serving right now (mostly in Ukraine) that I know of , so , they would probably take the Brit with certain experience and expertise (after loads of security check ups , of course). I can provide a telegram link for that , if you are interested. Putin's decree is not about Russian Orthodox church values , per se , but about traditional moral family values (which used to be main stream in Europe too , couple of decades ago , or so) - there are many Muslims in Russia and other religions too . The main thing about that is that the knowledge of Russian language isn't a condition for getting a permanent residency anymore and if many Brits , Americans , Canadians learnt it - pretty much anyone can too (at least to conversational level). If you think that Russian language is hard (which it is) , try Polish language 😁 Besides the obvious professions (which almost every country needs) , Russians are looking for farmers too (they , kind of , have some land to spare..) and the government and local incentives and subventions are (at the moment) ludicrous - in some cases up to 100% (my friend took advantage of that in Crimea) . If you know what are you doing , you can get seriously wealthy within a year , or two (again , I know people). Foreigners can't own the land (as in farm-able land) , but they can lease it , with an of option of buying. Big families are welcomed and there is a strong state support for children. There are negatives , of course , like everywhere in this world . At the moment (arguably) Russia is one of the places with best opportunities for a good life , depending on personal goals and convictions and preferences in general (there are some countries in south east Asia). However , simply by moving to Russia (or any other place) no one can solve all of his/hers problems - one simply exchange one set of problems for different set of problems (regarding different country and culture , laws , mentality , language ....). Also , if one has personal issues , those stick with that person , no matter what country he , or she is in. People tend to forget that. Though , sometimes , changing scenery and perspective - helps. It may be wise to visit Russia couple of times (prolonged touristic visits in different parts of the year and different places) prior to making decision to move - just to get a proper feeling (vibe?) of the place and to verify if it suits one's expectations . Btw , Europe is beautiful , but , than again , there are other places in the world that are beautiful in their own way. I'm sure that western Europe (at least) is on the way of no return (at least socially and economically and , for sure , demographically).

  2.  @matyaksenton4301  There is no "capitalist paradise" anywhere , unless one is a extremely wealthy and/or successful .

  3. You are mixing two different things. Capitalism is economic model , while communism is social model. In communism , main economic model was planned economy with (mostly) state (people/nation) owned and managed resources. In capitalism resources are mostly privately owned . If you want to compare social models , than you can compare feudalism and communism , or feudal autocracy and communism , democracy and communism (though , it isn't so simple , because communism was kind of democracy ). I know that it is a popular outlook on the things , but it is very much (besides theoretical definitions) dependent on historic moment and particular country , or state.

  5.  @rickardstrom9305  Which empire was keen of human rights , ever ? Of course , we are talking of modern era , because concept of human rights didn't existed before (in a sense of wide international recognition and legislation). For the most part , even today , it is just a thing that was written somewhere (UN? Some constitutions?) , but given the chance , people in charge will ignore it easily (even on their own population) , pursuing their own interests. Soviets (and later Chinese and some others) were ideologically motivated , unlike people from the west , who were more materially motivated (control and ownership of resources).
