      I find it very curious how russia does some interesting things like that. One of the few places that invest heavily in sovereignty and makes resistance to us brands. A pity they kind of do that for the wrong reasons and are imperialist themselves

        yeah it’s wild how they can despise the west… but also, want to be the west themselves? they despise capitalists… and have hollowed out their own country with crony capitalism… they’re a failed petrostate who are losing a war to a tiny neighbor, 1000-1600 dead every day, going on longer than WW1.

        oh and they have the second largest pile of nuclear weapons in the world (or first, depending on whose numbers you trust)…
