Aaaand… Whatever company hadn’t pulled their assets out of Russia yet are now scrambling to do it.

I must have missed something. Had it ever stopped?

Between that, his US lap dog Trump looking like he’s going to lose the elections badly, and Ukraine taking control of more Russian territory in a week than they have been able to take from Ukraine in months, Putin is definitely not sleeping well right now.

Even if Putin dies and gets replaced by someone who immediately stops the war and brings Russia back into a mindset of international trade and cooperation, Russia’s economy will still be fucked for well over a century by the absolute disaster that is its demographics. They were already experiencing very bad “echoes” in their demographics from a entire generations being destroyed by their meat wave tactics of WW2. Now the problem is even worse.

Putin might have completely ruined Russia for centuries.

They introduced them as “Democratic People’s Republic of Korea”, which is the official name for North Korea. South Korea’s official name is just “Republic of Korea”. I can totally see many people who are used to calling them “North” or “South Korea” mixing those up.

That’s rich coming from someone who pretended to be disabled to dodge the draft.
