      If it hits 120 it will be at the same level as when the Soviet Union caputted… You draw the conclusion ☺️

      The ultra thin layer of relevant government will always be fine, they are encrusted in luxury and will never face any troubles, like the NK rulers and other dictators.

      The people in ruzzia are fucked, their economy will be toast, and this will make this shitty war more and more unbearable.

      Didn’t you hear? Prominent Lemmy propagandists have assured us numerous times the sanctions aren’t working and the Russian economy is actually booming!
