Degoogle, and also avoid any company with an international arm incorporated in Russia, or outside of Russia, apparently:
Google is seeking a ruling [in US and English courts] to block [RT] from pursuing its assets in foreign jurisdictions such as South Africa, Turkey and Serbia.
According to the Turkish filings, Russian courts have determined that Google owes Tsargrad 32.8bn roubles (£273m)… [the penalty] doubles every 24 hours… Russian courts had “levied unprecedented fines and arbitrary legal penalties against Google in an attempt to limit access to information on our services and as a punishment for our compliance with international sanctions against Russian individuals and organisations”.
Putin doesn’t care, he’s old enough he’s facing his own mortality and his “capstone achievement” is regaining as much ex Soviet territory as possible.
He thought he’d steamroll Ukraine and move on to the next, for someone like Putin he’d consider his entire life a failure if he doesn’t get it.
And he’s not trump, he’s evil as fuck but he’s not an idiot. He knows he won’t live forever and this is the last push.
Doesn’t matter if the whole country dissolves the day after he dies, he wants Russia to cover as much land as possible the day before.
It’s an insanely dangerous geopolitical position even before factoring in Israel attacking Russia’s allies, like I’m legit surprised no ones declared war today.
I know people are optimistic because Kamala’s almost definitely going to win, but trump isn’t the only shit show on the schedule.
