I really hate how people keep saying we have to fight for Ukraine to “defend democracy”. It really isn’t that. For now at least, it’s a war between Ukraine and Russia and a proxy war for the US.

"Lying is good when we do it."

Remember when these people told you they were anti-war and that Donald Trump was going to intentionally start wars to attempt to solidify his fraudulent grasp on power? Uh huh.
 
This got me to briefly think about India. You know how the U.S. threatened to sanction India for not supporting Ukraine hard enough?

In 2017, a native Indian card company named RuPay had roughly 15% of the Indian market under its belt. The Indian government started shilling the fuck out of RuPay telling all the Indians to replace their Visa/Mastercard cards with RuPay cards because they realized letting American companies control your money is a bad idea.

By 2020, their market share was at 60%. RuPay grew so quickly that Visa filed an official complaint to the U.S. government whining that the Indian government was hurting Visa's business. Mastercard in 2018 told the Office of the United States Trade Representative that the Indian government was equating having a RuPay card to being patriotic.

So now we have 1 billion Chinese off the U.S. financial system's teat because Xi realizes that shit is fucked, 1 billion Indians moving away out of the U.S. financial system and onto their own system, and roughly 150 million Russians being given no choice but to hop onto the Chinese system. Seems like the ship is sinking fast, isn't it?
Been reading more about UnionPay.

In the USA the Xi card is taken anywhere the DISCOVER card is taken and you can use it at any NYCE connected ATM. Which I don't know about the rest of the USA but in New England that is all of them. Being on NYCE is how my ATM card that has been issued by my small town 2 branch bank can work on any ATM in north America. If Xi can work out a deal with the poo's to have UnionPay reciprocity with RuPay then thats a big blow to western banks.

In the USA I can get a Xi card from a bank that is FDIC insured. That would work with NYCE, PULSE, Visa, UnionPay, and DISCOVER networks.

"In China, East West Bank's presence includes full service branches in Hong Kong, Shanghai, Shantou and Shenzhen, and representative offices in Beijing, Chongqing, Guangzhou, and Xiamen. Forbes magazine has recognized East West Bank as one of “America’s Best Banks” since 2010. In 2018, Forbes ranked East West Bank number five of "America's 100 Best Banks."

Nancy Pelosi should push for importation of Ukrainians into San Francisco and show the world how American streets filled with guns and literal shit and niggers are still better than Russian streets filled with hardcore drugs and chechens and no guns for the new refugees.
Should, but instead she’ll push them into flyover country. I hear Amarillo, TX is slated to get a sizable number of Ukrainian refugees, and this is years after the Feds dumped a ton of Somali refugees there.
 
has this been posted yet? Russia really is returning to monke lol

I have a feeling the whole Minecraft is going down in the near future not just Russia's. The old man is going back to earth to chop down everyone's internet. I've had a feeling about that since the pandemic started 2 years ago. I hope you all stocked up on old media and downloads everyone. *sigh*
 
I bet; but they’re still shockingly unprepared for departing from the West. Not even securing an independent payment processor is so fucking batshit.

for example, they didn’t even properly insert Russian flags into their own soldiers asses prior to invasion.

i love the puzzled expression, just another day in panslavia
 
That has become a major headscratcher to me in recent years. Why not just expel them and save yourself the trouble?

"Don't wanna be part of our country? Adios, chumps. Don't ask for any gibs."
Funny thing is countries which secede successfully in a peaceful manner... tend to stay peaceful afterwards. See: Czechoslovkia splitting into Czech Republic and Slovakia respectively. Or a less recent example, Malaysia expelling Singapore in 1965.
 
Ukraine is an apt demonstration of what 'democracy' means nowadays to world leaders, I suppose.
Schrödinger's Democracy.
It's a corrupt, racist, xenophobic, far-right funded post-Soviet slavic poohole, but at the same time it's the bastion of Europan democracy and progressiveness.
