    Ukraine has basically eradicated Wildberries, a main distributor of components and gear used by the Russian army.

    Who would have thought outsourcing critical goods distribution to Chinese dropshipping fronts would have negative consequences for your imperial wars of aggression?

    It gets even worse because Putin has said that in order to protect critical infrastructure such as these distribution centers, they can request military aid to protect them, but they have to pay for the privilege and once they pay the kremlin gets to decide what to protect, where, when, and how to spend that money at its own discretion.

    🤡

      Not only that, but if they don’t protect their businesses themselves, then the Kremlin will nationalize them and “protect” them.
