The mass hysteria continues. GOG will no longer sell to Russia. EA Sports has removed Russian teams from FIFA and NHL games. International cat competition will no longer accept Russian breeds.

This whole thing smells like an entire chapter of Manufacturing Consent.


I wonder if link shorteners will be used to get around this.


Nope. It's been common practice for years now on any major site that every user submitted link is instantly web scraped.


Russia is the new isis.


Putin and his cronies are the new ISIS. We love Russia and their people but innocents are dying at his orders. Something has to be done.
