Moonlanding source missing

The moonlanding conspiracy survey link doesn't work anymore. Link in question: "Почти половина россиян не верит, что американцы побывали на Луне - РБК daily" I thoroughly searched the linked website and couldn't find anything relevant. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Xilliah (talk • contribs) 19:24, 23 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Unsourced

"Even in some of the latest Russian population polls, the United States and its allies consistently top the list of Greatest Enemies." The word "even" is unsourced; in fact, fom.ru says that the fear of U.S. as an "age-old geopolitical opponent" ("извечный геополитический противник") was "entirely predictable" ("вполне предсказуема", the subject being "the top triplet of external threats", "первая тройка внешних угроз"). I am going to remove the word "even". - 89.110.30.3 (talk) 05:25, 31 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Criticism?

"In 2013, journalist Vladimir Posner stated that Russian people have still not forgiven United States for "winning the Cold War"." Why is this called "a criticism"? I don't see in these words any criticism of Anti-Americanism. - 89.110.30.3 (talk) 09:21, 31 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The USA didn't win the Cold War this Thesis is historical false. The real reason of the Collapse of the Eastern Bloc and the USSR was a through structural immanent deficits induced Implosion of the Communist system. Serious US American Historians know that but the common people in the USA believe only that the US won the Cold War, because of their low education, for example only one sixth of US Americans know where the Ukraine actually is. And actually the Majority, especially of younger Russians don't care about the Soviet Union. The USSR was a multi-ethnic mostly and officially internationalist orientated totalitarian and later authoritarian communist State. Most Russians are as nostalgic as the Majority of Eastern Germans who also don't care about the GDR. Posner only repeated a silly stereotype about Russia.--Galliard Prides (talk) 17:22, 19 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Are this polls about conspiracy theories really serious?

A large part of US Americans believe in this and other conspiracy theories but I doubt that so many Russians believe in this things.--Galliard Prides (talk) 17:29, 19 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

So what? How do you suggest to improve the article? - üser:Altenmann >t 20:06, 19 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Ebuchiye pindosy

Serezha-kun (talk) 19:21, 1 March 2018 (UTC) Anti-americanism is exist in Russia because a lot of Russian`s neighbours, which USA support, have become enemies to the RF. For example: USA coldly related to Ukraina, when Ukraina became political enemy, America started to support Ukraina. P.S. Sorry for my english.[reply]

POV Dispute: Extreme geopolitical views and theories

I dispute that it's fair to refer to this entire section as "extreme". While they are unusual from an American viewpoint, and some of the examples provided certainly are far-fetched (like the claims of intentional sabotage via African Swine Fever), if these views are widely supported by academia and politicians in Russia or elsewhere then they are by definition not extreme.

Moreover, several of the theories in this section are far from implausible: while this article sensationalizes the claims with phrases like "economic parasite", it is a matter of historical record that the USA has imposed hostile economic sanctions against Russia and Russian citizens (as well as other countries). Similarly, it hardly seems implausible that the US military has drawn up plans for an attack on Russian soil, given their prominent status as geopolitical rivals and the fact that the US military even draws up plans to invade their allies, such as War Plan Red. Rosguill (talk) 23:17, 27 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

It's been over two weeks and no one has responded, I've gone ahead and removed "extreme" from the section title and reworded the introduction to preserve neutrality. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rosguill (talk • contribs) 20:11, 13 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
