    Western sanctions and embargoes are becoming funnier and funnier as they continually overestimate their power. The west can’t understand the the rest of the world exists.

      there’s only two tools in the Western toolkit: sanctions (for bad countries) and austerity (for their own countries). they get extremely confused when neither of them work, and then assume that they haven’t been pressing either hard enough and so just keep mashing them over and over again
