I have, because they’re amazing tires for my climate- the cross climate ones.

Aren’t they low for the same reason tanks are low? They’re running out of them? Are maybe using them less and focusing on drones instead?

Even pol/ has pro Ukraine and pro Russia posts. It’s not tailored to only show you only one worldview.

It says it’s aimed at China. Does the USA allow it? Does this mean stepping away from microsoft?

On top of that, if you buy a Chinese car, you have no guarantees about how long replacement parts will be available.

The Russian population is 143 million. This means that effectively 1% of the population is a casualty. Or 2% of the male population. And the rate isn’t slowing down. How much longer can Russia sustain this?

This ethics question is from another time, where most likely both the local miller and baker were dependent on said sale to continue to feed their family, and have the resources to feed others.

I think the main dilemma behind it is more like: is it ethical to force others to work for my profit/human rights? However for this dilemma to be representative, the entire society needs to be arranged so everyone who is willing to contribute can contribute and is motivated to do so.

Also, capitalism is the best system, as long as it’s kept in check and the people inside aren’t to greedy. Neither traits currently seem to be true. Communism is the best system as long as people aren’t selfish, and aren’t motivated by physical rewards. Which also isn’t true.

The best moment to plant a tree was 10 years ago, the second best right now. I still hope we keep producing them on masse to give to the Ukrainians too.

Frankly, it’s the end of private enterprise in Russia. Wildberries and Ozon are just the start, Ukraine will need new targets in the future. Company owners have the choice: implement your own air defence, and get your company confiscated, or get destroyed.

Everything is broken, a lot of warning lights flashing, yet mysteriously everything keeps going…

I could see myself becoming at least somewhat interested in fiat-earth.
