All hail Putin the Great: Russia to burn Western Food starting Thursday

[Rex Kwon Do]

Economy is going to hell, but nobody is really starving (yet), although Russians could use some food, they are so damn flatass.

Yeah, "starving" is hyperbole, but the fact that one person--and obviously a person with the means to travel abroad--is "doing great" doesn't in any way reflect on the state of the country as a whole. There are well off people in every country.

Russophobe forum software does not recognize all those hundreds of medals that they have :icon_sad:

They'd all be black belts if prior bans were accounted for. Sheepdog is scared.

Putin needs to implement the Reebok's tier system IMO.

Whitebelt Kremlin trolls get 5 minutes of groceries shopping at that food dump each day, yellow belts get 10 minutes, and so on.

I've very familiar with propaganda from both sides.

The RussiaToday/Channel 1 propaganda in Russia is powerful.

So is the crap on FOX News/CNN.

The standoff between the West and Russia is very sad and unfortunate.

The Russian government today is not ideal- but you don't have a lot of amazing options when you're a developing country.

Authoritarian state-planning capitalism has been working very well in China and had a promising track-record in South Korea, Japan, and Singapore.

As long as the Russian government is committed to protecting Russian sovereignty and independence then the Russian people will be satisfied.

The Yeltsin administration was a disaster and he was letting territories go left and right and basically reduced Russia to a semi-colonial client-state to the West.

Gorbachev withdrew Soviet military bases from East Germany and basically forfeited Soviet superpower status (the country was crumbling, yes, but there were so many better solutions than the na

Wouldn't it have been smarter to confiscate it, then slap new "made in Russia" labels on it and distribute it and look like a hero? Kind of like going and buying a premade Thanksgiving dinner, put it on your table and telling a lie when you convince everyone you made it yourself.
