Thank you for this session, good to have an idea of what happened to the plane, if electronic devices can reach them could our prayers too?

I understand Russian society has aspects plagued by oligarchs and consumerism like the west, but perhaps the generations that have had to fend for themselves by being adaptable, and had an education structure with more emphasis on self learning and critical thinking, are much more prepared them for the coming changes.
I think you are right, they are better prepared, for several reason:
First: During the Soviet times being able to discern what was true and what not, was essential. A friend told me they operated with several truths; the truth of the street as the common people understood it, the truth of the newspapers, the truth of the party or politicians and the real truth all by itself.
Second: With the collapse of the USSR a load of sufferings came to many average citizen like mass unemployment, salaries so low you couldn't possibly live on it or support a family, people were selling old clothes, furniture, books etc to get by. To give one example, in Lvov in Ukraine there was one factory in the mid 90ties where people where not paid for 13 months! How could this happen? Watching a documentary about the Unknown Putin, of which two episodes are available with English subs, one gets an idea of what had happened and what Putin and his team did to pull Russia out of the problems. In this series of episodes and documentaries and a couple of more by the same producer it is laid out HOW the US and co managed to pull down many of the industries in Russia. Essentially the US succeeded to close down or diminish all the about 300 factories they had wanted to destroy with nuclear bombs, had a war ever occured! Putin and co have put life back in some 100 hundred of those. In one documentary there was the example of a worldclass factory that was sold for a little money by the boss and closed down by the new owner resulting in 10000-12000 unemployed people.
Third: Many people had to go through so much hardships during the Soviet times, that something happened to them. For example a Russian woman told me about a place in the North of Russia, not too far from Finland as I recall, where there were an unusual amount of people with extrasense abilities, that is people who could see auras, heal, have a good idea of the future and stuff like that. She said the people there either were descendants of people who had lived in the labour camps or had been in the camps and that the hardships/sufferings they had gone through had had this effect for some of them.
Fourth: Russian science, what is left, is more open. I have been watching several documentaries about secret history, earth prophecies, potecial cataclysms, mass extinctions (they mention 80 %) possible earthchanges with graphics illustrating the effects of cometary impacts including mega tsunamis, a return of the iceage etc. Of course not everybody watches this but still, what mostly individual people try to research, write and post about in the West, a few university institutes research and professional media companies spent time and money to bring it out to the people. Well to be honest, they would probably not do it, if nobody cared to watch, but apparently enough do, which is a good sign. But then, I guess, it is also encouraging as a Russian to hear about the prophecies of Edgar Cayce and others who say, that Russia or part of it has a future, which is more than one can say about a couple of other places as I understand.
