Having opportunity to attempt to deal with a Russian, hard headed does not even begin to describe these people's mindset. Maybe it was just him and his wife but having read a bunch on Russia in both world wars an my little dustup they get to a point where no fuck is given. They don't care if they go down in flames as long as they live long enough to see you dead first.
As westerners and a western mindset, we cannot comprehend their agenda.

The ancestors of today's Russians were invaded by Mongols, Napoleon and Hitler. They were brutalized by Stalin and Lenin. Hard headedness has been ingrained in their DNA.

You cannot reason someone out of a position they didn't reason themselves into.
