It doesn't seem to be taking many. It has no social policies for immigrants, like, at all. You can't come here and be useless giving you the time to adapt or integrate.

And if you wanna get the permission to work, you need to know basic Russian and have some cash on your hands. $300 is not something every immigrant just has, and it's without transportation costs, which add up.

im not saying rn haha

im saying when climate refugees become a big thing

Do you think Putin is gonna open borders to them?

putin wont be in charge

This is what they said about Lenin and the fucker is still there.

HAHA what

Well, still at the Red Square. Worshipped and stuff.

Now it's gonna be Putin's "last" term, but nobody actually believes it.

So he is there for a while. Most likely until he dies.

the difference is that Lenin had a big ideological/philosophical vision and revolutionised the country

you could argue he helped change the world too

with a very novel system

I would argue, for the worst.

sure

i agree with that

but its different to putin

who hasnt won the hearts and minds with a worldly philosophical vision

hes more of a pragmatist and corrupt af depending on who you ask

"Corrupt" is weirdly defined. What does this even mean?

corrupt

adj.
Marked by immorality and perversion; depraved.
adj.
Venal or dishonest.

the west spreads a shitload of propaganda about putin and without doing research myself, i wouldn't personally call him corrupt based on that

> Marked by immorality and perversion; depraved.
AKA someone you fundamentally disagree with. Basically, the US left and right can easily call each other corrupt. The former is corrupt due to endangering the interests of their community and the latter for endangering the interests of the world.

yep, although the allegations against putin are more "he takes massive bribes" etc

"putin has 100 billion in wealth from corrupt practices"

Well, aplly this to him and he is pretty high on the chart of dictators.

This is basically as benevolent as you get without resorting to democracy.

i love how the coins are bitcoins

isnt the russian oligarchy pissed off by the sanctions the US put on russia

wouldnt this have cost putin some support

It definitely would. But he can afford it, I guess.

GG @SonicAF, you just advanced to level 4!

Sometimes I think that there is some type of russian black market that is secretly evading the us sanctions

Please. Most of those sanctions are just targeting stuff not participating in Russian economy.

And people allegedly close to Putin so they can't travel to the US-allied countries.

You don't need a black market against that.

Apart from that, we lost some cheese and this.

Some good cookies from France that 1% people can buy more than once a year.

At this rate they can just go to Europe and eat them there.

Yup
