Russia is still getting paid for oil and gas.
Pretty much. And using a dodge that lets it run the parade, since payments are made by conversion using the daily ruble rates - which are now all but higher than before the conflict. In short, not only did the EU cripple its own ability to pay for gas using its own currency, now it'll actually have to pay more for the same quantities, because it has no control over the ruble exchange rates. There's your "cucked" right here.
Speaking of which - I can understand the "Russia bad" mentality as a whole; military conflicts can be seen through multiple perspectives where the good guys and bad guys aren't always the same; and that's fine. But it takes a whole new level of mental gymnastics to try and entertain the "Russia cucked" mindset - even the western legacy media isn't that deranged. Especially when the matters are economic - inanities like this are the reason why all education systems should have basic financial literacy classes at least at the high school level.
