I didn't think you were talking about Star Wars. I'm saying that this is the real world not a movie, and the idea that the Russian people could rise up and overthrow the Russian government is utterly ****ing ludicrous.

"some"? y'alls argument is that the "vast majority" of people are against the war.
if the "vast majority" stood up, what? 100m people?, you think putin wouldnt feel the consequences?

Like I said we're in the real world, not a movie. Name a time in history an entire country has jumped to arms to topple their own government. And I'm talking world powers here, not coups in small nations, and even then, that's not what a coup looks like.

You're getting angry and hayi g an entire people because they're not enacting a fantasy scenario that bears no resemblance to real world situations or politics.

i would argue the power imbalance in a lot of arab countries prior to the arab spring was greater than that currently in Russia.
Russia is long gone being a world power, its a nuclear power but its not a world power.

while they are closed.

Makes sense to hang onto good workers,
but for how long can they do this?

What’s the point in that?

The entire point of these boycotts was to stop western money being poured into Russia
That’s exactly what maccies is doing here

Whilst I can’t say let them go hungry, if Putin realises his people are suffering fro m starvation , he will retreat.

You understand that you're not supposed to be discussing other members? Because believe me, you don't exactly cover yourself in a worldly-wise glow.

never claimed to be an expert of russia, nor did i claim to be worldly-wise whatever that exactly means.

I am however confident that i know the difference between what is morally right and wrong.

McD in Russia must be able to see beyond this War.
It is not USA paying this,
it is the Russian Franchisers

Some Other Russian owned burger bars are really happy
that McD has hated working in Russia.



[The company has committed to paying all of its
approximately 62,000 Russian employees
during the pause in restaurant operations.
Ozan said McDonald's will also be paying leases
for its locations, as well as supply chain costs and other expenses.]
