Note: There’s only one name left on the list
“the New People party proposed amending the law to allow children to change unusual names without parental consent if they are being bullied…the parliamentarians cited statistics from Moscow in 2023, according to which some parents named their children Lucifer, Europe, Sugar, Keith”

KEITH! 🤣

I wonder if this initiative went anywhere
Meanwhile in Russia…

“Singles should be seated together: new demographic initiatives announced”

“Russia proposes seating lonely employees next to each other”

Now realize that it’s all pretty much dead in the water.

I’m going to share this video again because I don’t know if enough people realize just how much Russia has fallen.

This video was published on 19 January 2022. Look at everything that this video promised for Russia.

Meanwhile Russia went from being someone who had robust savings, investments and stockpiles and at least the opportunity for growth to someone who is living paycheck to paycheck.

So I guess..

2025 - Phase 4 Biden Farewell sanctions and Trump tariffs tank the world economy and cause oil prices to plummet.

Of course, the sanctions kept coming

(Looking forward to your 20th sanctions pack EU) 😉

And Ukraine strikes back.

2022 - Phase 1 Russia uses stuff they already have stockpiled and paid for

2023- Phase 2 Russia has to start spending serious money to buy/build/refurbish stuff for the war.

2024 - Phase 3 Secondary Sanctions threats and cross border payment problems

From back then, I think the first real signs that the government realized they had a problem was probably mid 2023.

You’ve probably heard me repeat this multiple times:

👉 It’s not the beginning of the crisis, it’s the middle of one

Quite a while back at the other place I wrote a REALLY long thread discussing the different phases the economy and perhaps more specifically the government had gone through post 2022

I had

👉 “Russia promotes land lines and old pay phones”

It was Lukashenko…close enough

The Russian government trying to fight this, and they’re busy moving stuff around trying to find solutions or perhaps the least bad option.

They can and do change strategies.

Originally, they claimed that 2025 was the year that they would start REFILLING the NWF.

That plan got scrapped. So all the cuts to expenses and increases in taxes that was supposed to facilitate this instead were shifted to cover the deficit.
