Maybe. I never thought about it from this perspective. I always thought that the harsh environment left a mark on it's people.

Yeah it's probably both, that's a good point. But Norway has a harsh environment too and they have nowhere near the rates of alcoholism, suicide, and dangerous activities that we see men commonly do in Russia. So I think the "disposable tool" hypothesis and the dejection explains the data the best, imo

You are right. I forgot about Norway, Finland, Scandinavia, basically all countries with harsh environments with populations acting differently from Russians. It seems that they (ordinary Russians) always have been struggling and fucked over by whoever group was in power since centuries or forever. Being 'tough', having a death wish, alcoholism, macho behavior seems to be ways to cope with the harsh realities of Mother Russia.
