It is, however you’d think such a publicized event would have stressed the importance of clean water to anyone that heard about it. Even the people who are racist should understand why they should want their water to be clean.

Careful, someone will think that’s sinophobic

There will never be anything that convinces someone like you to take action.

The source is their fingers when they typed in the message. Silly goose.

To be fair, these are Apple users we’re talking about. They uhh… kind of epitomize rampant American consumerism.

Why the world should care

In our view, all things being equal, it’s unlikely that the economy will implode soon, forcing Russia to scale back its military campaign in Ukraine; or that deposits will be frozen. That doesn’t mean, however, that nothing will ever happen to deposits, nor that the banking sector will always be trouble-free. However, there are far bigger threats to the Russian economy at the moment: for example, a lack of transparent decision-making, little independent expertise, and the classification of much economic data all undermines trust in the authorities. This is more likely to, eventually, lead to some sort of hard-to-predict, man made crisis.

This is the article written by Alexander Kolyandr and Alexandra Prokopenko. https://en.thebell.io/no-russia-is-not-on-the-verge-of-a-banking-crisis/

So, they dispute the idea that there will be a credit/ banking crisis. They do not dispute that the Russian economy is in bad shape.

Figures of the week

Inflation in Russia might be starting to slow. Between January 1 and January 13, prices went up 0.67%, which suggests annual inflation of 9.9% (it was 9.5% last year). However, January’s figures reflect one-off boosts from increased sales of alcohol and tobacco, a further rise in the recycling fee for cars, higher public transport fares and a weakening ruble. Together with a fall in consumer demand and an increase in consumer borrowing, this could mean inflation will peak in the first half of the year. In the absence of external shocks (such as tighter sanctions) this could pave the way for lower interest rates.

So, no, they do not agree that sanctions would not work. In fact, they imply here that an external shock like tighter sanctions would likely cause inflation to continue rising.

What would be most likely to cause a man made crisis if not the value of the rouble decreasing further + a continued bloody war?

Well, I ran this through several media bias checkers - it came back as unbiased. Site leans a little left, but that’s about it.

So tell me again, what are you trying to say? Because if your answer is more or less ‘it’s propaganda’ - I’m not sure I should entertain this topic any further.

Nah he’s just planting trees for future generations to sit under.

Can’t have Barron end up anywhere other than King, right?

I don’t really think about them with hate, I think about them more like weeds that need to be trimmed.

I don’t hate the weeds for growing, I’ve given them the conditions they need too. They still need to die in order for my other plants to thrive.

Damn they really are wildly stupid.

Are we gonna go back to bandits soon? These people seem stupid enough to be bandits.

There’s a massive difference between being killed for meat and being killed because it’s too expensive to maintain them. We’re talking thousands of tons of meat going to waste, not a dairy cow being killed at the end of its productivity.

😂😂😂

Vegans get off on acting like they’re better than everyone else for eating ‘clean’ whilst willfully ignoring the damage that’s done to our planet by shoving pesticides and fungicides into the soil and waterways.

While I admire the attempt, no there’s simply no way a vegan will ever do something like this. In the mind of every vegan, they’ve already done their part by eating only plants.

What a dipshit, thank god he bought land in Florida. Die there.

These people want Lemmy to be Reddit and don’t understand why that’s a problem. You are quite literally pissing in the chud winds. I upvoted you, but I do think you’re wasting your time outside of your initial comment.

You can dislike what they’re saying, that doesn’t mean it isn’t true.

Gods can bleed.

That’s weird considering every single thing I’ve read about Russia’s economy recently has been that it’s going to collapse soon.

Edit: not a fascist

Name a single language that Trump speaks well.

Idk, the game is great and I distinctly remember people crying about stuff like this with DD2.

I’ll tell you what I said then. I was not tempted to buy any MTX in MH Wilds until I started reading the comments of people crying about it.

This is a basic fucking character creator we’re talking about. If you’re so spastic that you need to change your characters model every day, we have very different reasons for playing video games.

Let me put it this way. This is Monster Hunter. Why the fuck does your character looking a certain way mean so much to you? If it does mean so much, make a new character - the game hasn’t even been out for 3 days. These problems are literally non-issues.

Trump throats Putin, to even remotely suggest that this would end positively for Zelensky might as well prove that you’re a shill or bot.

Go back to Reddit.
