You'll be laughing out of the other side of your face when the Western TechnoDicktaters make you Kneel Before Zod to keep your bank accounts, Social Security benefits and anything else you have.

I think Putin saw this world dicktatership coming.

Thats China’s game, and Russia isn’t China with that huge domestic market.

I hope Russia doesn’t do this for fun and profit, but rather for need, which might possibly be defensible later when they are trying to lure investors back.

“Then say goodbye to any computer not made by Lenovo.”

No problem, China will just steal all the other computer companies’ tech and give it to Lenovo.

“I guess McDonald’s feels like it can except a 9% loss.”

Well, with food prices surging McDonalds can probably gauge the rest of us 9% and get away with it.

I admire Putin’s acumen regarding the LGBTQ World HomoMafia Dictatorship, and how they operate.

They’re also paying salary continuation for 62,000 McD’s employees in Russia (those are company stores, not franchises). This won’t last for long.

If you ask me this is great for Russia long term. They will become more self reliant. It’s what everyone should strive for. Trump wanted loca manufacturing for just this reason. That’s why he put huge tariffs on steel etc.

"Russia says its businesses can steal patents from anyone in ‘unfriendly’ countries"

As if they can get anyone off the vodka long enough to keep these ur-McDonald's open! All the Eastern Euros staffing this shit just left! Jesus Christ, Putin never ordered domestic intel analysis on any of these knock-on effects.

What do you expect would happen when you try to economically isolate them? I’d do the same thing too. I hope Russian hackers drain all the elites bank accounts.

My question is if Russia lets other just take over th pe Mickey ads, who’s going to supply them? They certainly won’t be using McDonald’s products.
