    Like "Russians who are not satisfied with the show" or like "Russians IN the show"? If the latter than most people which the show features are not Russians. They are Ukrainians.

    Both. Perhaps the better word was Soviet. Of course Russia would have you believe everything east of Poland and north of Greece is Russia.

    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

    Didn't get it. It's not a word, either in Russian or in Ukrainian.

    The only thing I can guess is that he misspelled корюшка, but that does not even make sense in context.
