This article cannot serve as a basis for rational discourse. It is slanted and warped and fallacious from the get-go.
It might be fun for some FReepers to pick it apart and reveal how profoundly flawed it is, sentence by sentence, but I, personally, regard that as a waste of time.

As for the global economics, the war is only four months old and is going to last at least on year, maybe two. One economic quarter is not enough to show any real global economic changes. Russian losses can not be made up like Ukraine's. Russian production of war material may look good short term, the in the long term the writing is on the wall due to sanctions. Too busy and tired this holiday weekend to go into the rest of this.
