Turns out shutting down Nordstream2 doesn't magically make the demand for natural gas go away. What a twist!
With Nordstream 2, Europe made the brave decision to cease transporting energy on a pipeline that did not yet exist.
 
Russia has strict abortion laws but Putin could just ban it entirely like many Eastern bloc countries did after WW2 and further encourage having children with money. It was not unheard of for people in Eastern Europe to receive flats by signing a government contract to have 2-3 children. Many people would still choose the coat hanger but numbers would rise eventually. This decoration (the successor of the old Soviet Mother Heroine) is already awarded to biological and adoptive parents of large families with a hefty 100 thousand RUB reward:

You're not going to turn around a terminal demography in less than 10 years. It is almost a 40 year endeavor.
 
An enterprising Kiwi could write a browser extension that would up the brightness/gamma of the open page depending on how many keywords there are present in the text (keywords being "Ukraine/Russia")

Didn’t ukrain manage to shoot down one of the aircraft carrying paratroopers or are you talking about the ones you see already landing in the video
They talked about it. And people in the US who refused to be named "confirmed" it. But nobody has ever shown wreckage or bodies. And
given how big Ukraine is on doing that, you would expect that if it had happened, we would have seen pictures.
 
So in the media front, we see that we have a full-on war between the entire Western World and Russia. Devastating losses, 6 million Russian troops dead as the Brave Avengers of Keeyuiev defend the country from Hitler 2.0. Economic sanctions that Russia will never ever recover from. Some are calling it Russia's suicide. Putler to be executed for War Crimes in Nuremberg after it's over.
In 2014 exactly the same was said and done with Russia but in the mean time the West kept buying oil & most of its gas from Russia.
That's why I don't take it serious now either.
 
They're begging Cloudflare to drop DDOS protection and hosting for Russian govt. websites, now.

It does make me wonder where all the cryptobros who were hyping up Ukraine, due to its corruption, are now.

If Cloudflare does bend the knee to this, it will be most unfortunate and set a precedent that other non-American countries can whinge them into submission.
But, aren't the vast majority of botnets owned and operated by Russian groups?

Do the twitter trannies really think the same DDoS groups they pay to down kiwifarms over byuu tranny drama will just accept requests to attack their own government's sites?

NBC did a peice tonight showing people pouring it into the drains on the side of the road by the caseload. All while playing air raid sirens. I shit you not.

Peak lunacy. Peak woketard. Peak waste.
So the Slav equivalent of this?

Because it isn't about saving Ukies, it's about sticking it to Putin, who is the current incarnation of White devilry. Like the devil he isn't that strong, but his disinformation campaigns are turning people into chuds and encouraging the rise of fascism everywhere.

I wish that were a strawman.

Putin just needs to start demanding payment in Rubles or gold. Of course not settling in dollars would be breach of contract but the EU has shown it doesn't care about that. Russia has the opposite problem of all shithole countries that end up collapsing through sanctions, they have too much hard currency and have been banned from selling it. A big motivator for the burgers kicking Russia out of SWIFT is to prevent Russia dumping it's dollars.


Lol 'western trade'. The bulk of global finished manufactured products are made in SE Asia, mostly China. Is China banning exports to Russia? The only thing that would worry Putin is being denied access to semi conductors, which means Taiwan. I doubt that's a long term concern.

One last thing for all the spergs simping for Ukraine. Russia achieved air supremacy 24 hours after the invasion. Take a minute and consider what that means in terms of tactical superiority on the battlefield. Russia could utterly destroy the Ukrainian army any time it feels like, instead they're confining themselves to ground maneuvers. Advance, surround and hold. They've been so careful in avoiding damaging civilian infrastructure that the only instances of non military assets being hit are all friendly fire incidents on the Ukrainian side. Whatever Putin has in mind it obviously does not involve conquering a wasteland.
Russia is really coming off as looking weak with the whole situation both Diplomatically and Militarily. Its looking like France could whoop their ass 1v1. It is Shameful.
 
Americans will still be able to get a loaf for only a briefcase full.

WINNING !!
USA! USA! USA!

If we eliminate Putin now, Trump won’t stand a chance in 2024! Ukraine will be the battlefield that determines the future of American democracy.

Erm having trouble understanding the newest Russian report.

-"Exporters must sell 80% of their foreign exchange earnings"- I assume this means people have to sell off their foreign cash that massively appreciated in value this week

-Russians are basically banned from doing any banking in foreign countries or with foreign currency
It means companies in Russia need to exchange 80% of their forigen currencies to help prop up the ruble, I am certain there is gonna be a lot of pissed off companies because of this.

The Russian oil is still flowing with full cooperation through Ukraine????

This is all theatre.
THE GAS. MUST. FLOW!

If I was Poland I’d be feeling really smug right now. France could do it too if they wanted. Imo Russia could beat Germany but that’s because they would rather lose a war than give an inch to their more competent elements.
Russia still gained lands in Ukraine and is besieging a 3 million city, how is that " militarily weak"?
They were supposed to do it better and their logistics sucked. To be fair Russia has generally struggled with offensive wars.
