Reply to IMF predicts that Russia's GDP will rebound to 0.3 percent growth in 2023 and grow by 2.1 percent in 2024 by green_flash
Numbers are bullshit when so much depends on black swans - real world events and developments. With all the chaos swirling around Russia right now it could easily be 5% growth or 10% contraction depending on events.
I don't even use numbers when making my financial decisions!

Yea a lot people commenting don’t remember that Ukraine already went through this.
While it’s not the entire story, there is a documentary about how they were fighting for their freedom (and won) in 2015.
What started as a protest led to a full on revolution.

Guess it’s free on YouTube now.

Reply to comment by Odd-Koala1290 in Mossad carried out Iran defense facility strike for Israel's own interests by MijTinmol
Hmm I suppose the trade off between a proxy war of Russia/Israel and Russia/NATO becomes moot once NATO actually gets involved (new as of the past few months). Russia has been fanning threats of using their Nukes, so that is ultimately the deciding factor of when a world war starts. If NATO involvement drives Russia nuclear, then the status quo of the Middle East is thrown and Israel would join with NATO forces. In my view

They decriminalized possession, but kept the punishments for distribution. So drug quality will remain the same, similar number of people will likely use (if not slightly more that just feared the penalties), cops will return drugs to people rather than confiscating them, and the number of deaths will drop?! What?
If you're gonna decriminalize it, at least provide a safe source for it??

They were, they’re no longer in government. Now the individuals involved are being held accountable. This inquiry is going to torpedo some careers, apparently deservedly.

Putin has a lot of support. It's not just him. Russians are responsible for the actions of their leaders.

It's mostly Iranian trolls astroturfing reddit.
>Volunteers found Iran's propaganda effort on Reddit — but their warnings were ignored
If you look at some users posting here about the US and see their comment history, you'll see every post is about the US or UK ...but the threads they're posting in are about Iran or Russia.
And given reddit's culture hatred for Americans, everyone eats it up.
