    Yeah but that’s what sanctions are. It’s not really possible to have convenient sanctions. How would that work.

      Sanctions are typically the acts of a government state not the actions of a business. Businesses have to comply with them but only if they’re bound by them. That wasn’t the case here. Lush did this based on public outcry, not sanctions.

      And at the end of the day if that interpretation is true, your essentially saying ‘bad fucking luck’ to all the Russians who lost their jobs while living in a country perpetrating a war that if they speak out against, they’ll be jailed at best.

      You’re right, there’s no convenient sanctions but if that’s really what old mate Lush is saying, he’s got a point.

        i mean, this is one way to win a war. the other is with bombs and death. Russia chose to enter this war, it shouldn’t be surprised when it affects its citizens.

        no one should get to keep their war over seas and out of their own borders.

        imagine a future where we could stop wars by just taking people’s jobs…

          Well, killing people using economy seems more humane than killing people using bombs, so I have to agree

        Yes… I think that’s exactly what he’s saying.

          Uhhuh and I was showing my dislike of that. It’s good you can follow the conversation.
