      Bootlicking simply comes naturally to the Russian culture.

      Edit: my apologies to the Russian brothers and sisters still fighting the good fight by blowing up Putin’s shit.

        I suspect that’s who this new VPN restriction is aimed at affecting most: activist Russians inside the country, and also those Russians evading mobilization by leaving, but continuing to work their Russian jobs via VPN. Putin has been trying to get his hands around that for many months now.

        To me, every Russian who left the country is one less Russian on the battlefield, one less Russian to be cannon fodder, one less Russian to harass Ukraine. So I don’t much care why they left, only that it’s a net good for Ukraine that they did. And of course those brave souls who are still protesting and acting against the system from the inside. Слава Україні!

          I suspect that if things continue in the trajectory that they seem to be heading, that people from Russia who exit may likely be better-off too, as much as moving countries is a significant barrier.

          Wouldn’t those be jobs that typically require advanced education? Why would they want to throw that subset of the population into the meat grinder?

        Racism comes naturally the Anglo brainpan.

        Edit: My apologies to my Anglo brothers and sisters still fighting the good fight and blowing up US government property.

          1: Russian isn’t a race, I’m actually being jingoist, you damn racist.

          2: I’m Suomi/Celt. Slavs and Germanics can all get fucked, ancestrally speaking, you slaving imperialist pigs.

          3:That was clearly a joke, go grow some sunflowers.
