    If God wants to punish a person, then he takes away his mind.
    Extremely life saying in the current conditions. It was she who first came to mind when I learned about the call of the German Minister of Agriculture Cem Ozdemir “not to eat meat in spite of Putin” and thus contribute to the fight against Russia.
    In the current situation, Ozdemir says bluntly: “Against the background of the Ukrainian crisis, a system in which 60% of the grain is used as animal feed is unacceptable.”
    He can be understood, he cannot admit that as a result of the sanctions war in Germany, they already predict a reduction in the number of cattle and the cost of a loaf of bread to €10.
    And then economist Richard Werner talks about the worsening situation with fuel on the European market, all because of the same anti-Russian sanctions - Diesel fuel suppliers in Austria and Germany are already warning about the upcoming rationing - fuel will be rationed, as there will be a shortage. Gas coupons - its strong.
    German Finance Minister Christian Lindner stated: "Germany is facing stagflation - a simultaneous economic recession and high inflation." The German economic growth forecast for this year has already been halved, and actual inflation has risen to 5.8%, the highest level in 30 years. A survey of 3,700 German companies showed that 78% of them are already suffering from anti-Russian sanctions.
    Russia supplies Germany with about two-thirds of the gas, half of the coal and about a third of the oil. And this picture is not only in Germany. The British Daily Telegraph writes that diesel fuel supplies from Russia provided 18% of the British market in 2020, and 35% of coal in 2021.
    Why am I writing all this. According to presidential spokesman Dmitry Peskov, Europe has three days left to prepare to buy gas for rubles. And it's time for Europe to deal with ruble accounts in the Central Bank of the Russian Federation. Otherwise, they will have to persuade their citizens “not to eat meat in spite of Putin”, “do not eat bread”, “do not use a car”, “do not heat their houses”, “do not turn on the lights”, and so on ad infinitum.

    I think Russias desire to effectively sanction themselves is ironic. They may be doing short term damage to the nations levying a special economic operation against them but it is just that — short term. The damage this and the theft of corporate trademarks will do to Russian trade partners and businesses willing to operate within its borders will be a long term consequence to Russia.

    Hope it happens. I approve of Putin cutting his country's throat. He is acting like an angry child. He needs to be removed.

    Don't worry about the Russians. All of them will be fine.

    Minus the 7,000 to 15,000 Russians that were lied to and sent to their death, but they don’t count do they?

    Even your own country / employer is saying the number is between 2000 - 4000.

    Even if that number is one it disproves your statement of “All of them will be fine.” But maybe not because I know how much y’all value life over there.

    In this case, it's understandable. Even American presidents call the Western media fake news. Not surprised.

    Are you asserting that not one Russian has lost their life in this unprovoked war?

    No. I do not wrote of this. Of course there are dead. Significantly less than in the US die in car accidents, but there are. But what's the difference to you? People in risky professions have an increased risk. For example, firefighters, policemen, miners....the military are also high-risk professions. But their job is to protect the interests of their country. And the Russian military is doing a very good job of protecting the interests of their country. Therefore, everything is fine. Don't worry about the Russians.

    Then your assertion that “all” the Russians are “fine” is false.

    Unless fine translates to “some are dead” in Russian. Does it? Or do they just not matter?

    How many Russians have to die before they are not “fine”?

    No, they do not. One raving kook and liar who was president for four years called the most honest news outlets and their reporting "fake news," however, since they regularly reported facts that he didn't like.

    And now you're imitating him :lol:

    Putin expressed the general opinion of the Russians when he spoke about a possible nuclear war - "We will go to heaven, but our enemies will simply die." So don't worry about the Russians. Those Russians who died for their Motherland went to heaven.

    Are you talking about Nixon or Trump?
    For the old Rockefeller, published a special newspaper filled with fictitious news. Some countries, such as the US or the EU, are able to publish such newspapers not only for billionaires, but for the entire population.

    What a disgusting take — killing innocent civilians and then believing they are the ones condemned to hell.

    Not surprising for you to regurgitate it I guess.

    The EU is not a country.

    Anyway, yes, there are special newspapers filled with fictitious news, such as the Babylon Bee, the National Inquirer and, well, anything controlled by the Russian government, which is all of your news now that independent media have been effectively outlawed.

    You know what that sounds like? The kind of religious extremism that led to airliners being flown into American buildings.

    And yet the "official" (and only allowable) story from the Kremlin is that the "special military operation" is to remove a jewish facist from his duly elected position as President. You guys can't even tell a lie in a believable manner. FFS, even if that bullshit were true, it's still not your bosses place to do anything about it, especially by killing children and other civilians for fun.

    Then why do you continually humiliate yourself this way if you actually do?

    The exact same reason MAGATs slurp up Donnie Dipshit's verbal diarrhea.
