I was looking a bit into the sanctions, and it’s interesting how many of them essentially amounted to Russia changing the name of a product/business and continuing to offer the same thing as before.

It puts into perspective how superficial ownership of businesses and ideas really is.

It’s not like McDonald’s or Coke sent their Western workers to set up shop in Russia. No, they sold the ‘rights’ to their brand to Russians and then Russians employed Russians to serve Russia.

Maybe one day it will help people understand that the threat of businesses leaving a nation is completely hollow.

Consuming so we can be part of the conversation.

Kiss the flag.

😘🇮🇱

And yet they haven’t left. Doesn’t sound like they got “demolished.”

You both are just spouting gung-ho bullshit as virtue signaling for the tribe.

Are you Chinese?

Are you fucking stupid?

Aiming a gun at a cop is significantly worse than brandishing. Why would I try to argue what you’re saying unless I’m an idiot?

Oh, wait a minute. Gotta tap the sign.

Glad I stopped trying to find logic in the average person.

Also ignored. I know I won’t be able to tolerate any more drivel from someone like you.

Aiming a gun isn’t the same as brandishing or drawing it.

Maybe your father should’ve spent less time teaching you about guns and more time helping you with your English homework.

Glad I stopped trying to find logic in the average person.

Thanks for reinforcing this.

Sigh.

Of course they have to be scumbags and say “you should give these rich people power instead of those rich people.”

It’s why vigilante justice is the only kind of justice the people in power will ever receive.

Yeah, they’re totally going to China where they don’t speak the language and have no human rights protections.

demolish

Ok buddy…

This is the modern version of David and Goliath.

🤦

Guns enable the oppressed to fight back against their oppressors.

Look at Iran to see what happens when people try to protest against abuse without having firearms to protect themselves from said abuse.

It’s a coward’s fallacy

Most of us are cowards, so this checks out.

The meta I’ve heard is also that, if you’re gonna brandish or draw a gun, you’d better be prepared to kill with it.

That’s dumb as fuck.

Glad I stopped trying to find logic in the average person.

Dang, this got censored and it’s not showing up in the modlog.

Sure does suck when random people on the internet get to decide what I’m allowed to see!

Only stupid people use bluesky.

Again, none of that is special.

the high price gives them less incentive to log user data.

Do you people really believe this? Holy shit.

When are they going to learn?

Probably never.

Dipshits like this are going to be stupid for the rest of their lives.

Bluesky is a platform for scammers and morons.

If you’re not the one scamming, that only leaves one other option.

It’s like the Krabby O’Mondays episode of Spongebob.

They essentially want you to be happy about your exploitation, or pretend to be happy.

Negativity is bad for business and if enough workers start seeing/saying the truth, they might fight back against their abusers.

It’s a major reason why I’d sooner go postal than work with the average chucklefucks in the West.
