Not even that equal, given how much they freak out over capitalist countries not "in the club" making deals

When wasn't it?

Unfortunately his enablers and handlers are alive and well, and likely will continue to be so. Think about it, when was the last time you've heard from Poroshenko? Yatsenyuk? At least Kolomoysky got locked up, although I expect him to "mysteriously disappear" from prison, as such types do

Well they're claiming Russia is now buying shells from DPRK and thus absolve themselves of any lie

I think they've actually used photos from Donetsk (when AFU attacked it with Tochka missiles). Aaaand then claimed Russia did it

Yep. Bring up Operation Gladio and the shit yanks did in Korea and Vietnam? "Yeah well we had to stop communism tho"

there are many other countries the sanctioned countries can trade with

Can't say for others, but the narrative regarding Russia (from Russian libs) was usually this:

• all those countries (USA, EU) can get things they get from us elsewhere no problem
• other countries can't offer us as much as we get from USA/EU
• Russia doesn't produce much useful anyway, just oil and gas

We buy weapons from Russia regularly.

Huh, I thought those deals got kind of quietly rolled back, and India went on to produce homemade weapons? At least I think that was the case with assault rifles

And in the modern day, Russian filmmakers made an absolutely abysmal movie about her, which has completely skimmed over any communist beliefs she had, instead postulating she fought for "Little trolley and rye bread back home" (near direct quote from the movie).

Well that's not bad, is it? Good breathing I mean. Best of wishes with your recovery!

Yes and no. They would have been built different, but not from wood. Don't have to go far for examples either: here's a house that was built to last in Stalin period. ComradeSalad does raise valid points regarding temperature jumps and the need for upkeep - but the latter is an issue with the economic mode, not the materials.

Besides, it's the XXI century. Surely we can build things with materials a tiny bit more advanced than basic concrete

I don't know, but also want to know. I've only seen maybe a couple of Wuxia movies (two of which were parodies of the genre)

Have you checked your lungs yet?

I know you are

Those types are not familiar with concepts of "humility", "embarrassment" and "shame"

You're in this meme

I don't think it's really that complicated. You're right - if any other country pulled this stunt, everyone would be up in arms which is one of the reasons they don't do that. But USA? Bases all over the world, chokehold on the world's financial system, most pervasive propaganda apparatus in history. So nobody barks. Everyone bows their heads and pretends not to see they're being robbed blind. Does that sound like a mafia? Because that's what it is. Wiseguys strolling into shops and homes, taking what they want. And if you so much as raise your voice? Your house inexplicably gets burned down. And everyone will tut and say "Well you should've known better, that's the rules of the neighborhood. It is what it is"

Ukraine did have a pretty developed electronics sector back in USSR days - among other hi-tech sectors. But just like the Baltics (and a good chunk of Russia) they were given up and demolished in the name of the Market

Running terror groups would likely require less people - just look at the drone bombings of various Russian areas, the bombings of journalists (Darya Dugina and the fellow in Petersburg whose name I forgot), attempted bombing of Zakhar Prilepin all the way in Niznhy Novgorod region

Why not? Nobody's stopping them
