Most people don't give a fuck about that governement bans, really, in theological sense. AFAIK, church services is still going, there exists failover protocol in Orthodox Christianity for the cases when priest was detained or whatever - "служба мирским чином" (secular divine service mode, something like that). Police are afraid to confront with parisioners for now. Will see what will happen at Orthodox Christmas (Jan 7).
Did you ever heard about a trial, where some oligarch or elite member was convicted and, the main thing - everything he stole from people, all his property (even if it is formally written to another people), was returned back to people?
I never heard about any trial that resulted in return of what was stolen to real owners. In the best case, oligarch will be in comfortable VIP prison for some time and some of his assets will be confiscated and will become property of the state, not the people. Then, he will be freed early, and will happily return to his wealth that was formally written to his relatives or friends or was offshored to avoid confiscation.
What is the point of such trials, if those who was robbed will never get anything back? Let's fate/karma/whatever do the job. At least, unlike after trial, that bastards will not be able to continue ther crimes and enjoy their stolen wealth.
Justuce and what some people really deserve in most cases are completely different things. So, who needs justice, if there could be another, more rightful options? I already told in some comment about the Russian/Slavic concept of "справедливость" as "right thing that has to be done even if it is completely against the law and not a result of trial" that even don't have a word in western languages and mostly incorrectly translated as "justice" having nothing to do with justice (judical system, third-party decision, laws, all that stuff) at all. For latter we have another word - "правосудие" and it is completely different from "спроведливость". Most Russians prefer "справедливость" over justice.
IDK, how to illustrate this properly for you. Say, what you prefer - toothless cartoon trial for Fauci with all that redacted documents, undisclosed witnesses, proofs with 75 years of disclosure delay and tiny punishment for "honored official" if any, or if somehow Fauci will suddenly bring his laptop with all his secrets and names of his real masters to some computer service that will openly publish all laptop contents uncovering all truth and after that Fauci will suddenly painfully die in car accident? First is "justice". Second is "справедливость". What will you choose?
JFYI. For those who interested,
On Ukraine, there was two Orthodox Churches - Kiev patriarchate Orthodox Church (~25% of population) and Moscow patriarchate Orthodox Church (another ~25% of population).
Both was Eastern Orthodox Churches, so they use Julian calendar for all holidays, prayers in ancient Russian, do not accept any ecumenism and consider Vatican as heretics. There was political tensions between Kiev and Moscow patriarchates of Ukraininan Orthodox Church but theologically they was the same.
Kiev patriarchate Orthodox Church was not officially recognized among Orthodox Churches, but had some relations with few recognized Orthodox Churches of small countries like Makedonia. It was created somwhere in 1992 as a counterweight to Moscow patriarchate Orthodox Church from part of Kiev metropole of Moscow patriarchate Orthodox Church, mostly for political reasons.
Half of Ukraine was Orthodox, Kiev or Moscow patriarchate. Only ~15% of Ukrainian citizens was of Ukrainian Greek-Catholic Church, other Christian Churches was represented poorly (less than 5%).
And now, the most interesting thing - Kiev patriarchate was shut down by Ukrainian government headed by Zelensky at December 13 2019. Long before than shit hit fan.
So, even if quote is fake, Ukrainian government definitely getting rid of Orthodox Church. Officially, today, only Christian churches connected with Vatican one way of another could legally exist.
Hardly stock price somehow connected with the real price of company, i.e. cost of physical assets, production volume and profits, it is mostly just a gambling on stock exchange.
Falling stock price does not mean that company lost manufacturing capability or whatever real value. Just like rising stock prices does not mean that company got new factories or began to produce something demanded with big profit.
But from the other side - it could be another Musk game. AFAIR, he sold a lot of Tesla stocks to buy Twitter. Now he could bought them back twice cheaper.
Pretty sane, I think. Better have more ownership rights over a real asset, than to hoard money on bank accounts. And if you own a platform that is relatively popular, why not influence stock prices drop one way or another? It is pertty simple today, taking in account all that ESG crap that is spreading among stock traders and large investment funds who play on stock exchanges, so do something ESG crowd will not like on Twitter, wait for stock price drop, buy your property back for cheap. I will not be surprised if Musk will turn Tesla private company eventually too.
Obviously, they will think out another shit.
Nice. All that "Russian millionaires" are 100% criminals, thieves and most are murderers. None of them earned wealth by their own working hard, all their wealth is a result of criminal privatization of state(i.e. people's of USSR) property or state tax money stealing and laundering.
Unfortunately, not all of them dead yet, but hopefully they are not as evil and global as globalist elite members and often fight with each other.
There are no any worries in Russia about that deaths, only worries that part of them that lick Putin's ass hard is not in jail or dead. Hopes are that none of them will avoid their fate.
I am beginning to think you are controlled opposition with your constant 'coincidence theories'.
I just question everything. :) I don't know what is real US approach in cold weather countermeasures and very sceptical about "worst .... in decade". Some data shows that freezing weather is not something exceptional in most of US, so people had to somehow be prepared to cold weather. Just want to have all possible info to make some conclusion.
In NC growing zone 7 it's supposed to get at the most -10F, and that is late into winter. It was -30F for a while
-10°F is well below water freezing point. And it does not matter when it supposed to get.
It took out my pump and I have it well fortified for winter. We already had several freezes and this overwhelmed my countermeasures.
What is your countermeasures? To withstand -10°F you definitely need either heated (with that heating cable and insulation) pipes and pump, either have them relatively deep in ground. In both ways if you prepared for -10°F you could have problems only if -30°F will stay for weeks.
As for snowfall, it also barely matter does it fall at 30°F or -30°F. The spade or machinery does not differ.
Do you think South East Asia or Northern Africa has the knowledge or ability to handle cold snaps that some smart ass dipshit from RUSSIA knows or has the ability to implement???
Really the question is "are there temperatures below water freezing point happens from time to time?". For US I see that that weather below water freezing point with snow is not rare thing at all, except small regions in Florida of California
Most problems with infrastructure in cold weather connected with water freezing here and there. If water freezes in pipes, f.e., than pipes could broke, if water freezes on road, there could be many road accidents and so on. However, if cold weather happens in region, then, usually, infrastructure is prepared for that. Pipes are dug lower that depth of freezing in ground, road services have snow cleaning machines and chemicals to melt the ice on roads. So, even extreme cold for few days would not do much harm and should not be a disaster.
If you think that in Russia everywhere winter does non cause problems, than you thinking about Russia too positive. :) It is not a rare thing, f.e. when snow cleaner trucks are not ready at first snowfall, because some mayor stole tax money for spare parts or fuel. And so on. There are problems in Russia connected with winter, but we don't have theories about weather weapons here. It's too obvious, that it is just those who in charge of being ready for winter are failed to be ready and highly probably they are corrupted and stole tax money that was allocated for winter weather.
I perfectly understand, that, say, Miami (or Sochi in Russia, f.e.) hardly have a fleet of snow cleaner trucks, or snow melting chemicals in stock.
But when I hear about awful troubles in NYC or Washington DC, and you talking about weather weapons, I like "WTF? There are no fleet of snow cleaner trucks in city? How? Why is this a disaster for them?".
Seriously, guys, is -15°C and a little snow in winter really something so disastrous in US? Something that not just a theme for a short talk at work like "Today is cold - Yes, I frogot to pour winter windshield liquid and it freezed", but something that definitely had to be a massive geoengineering?
Just quick lurking:
And so on.
Nothing unusual. Or all that was geoengineering too? How could that be?
Look wider. Great reset and NWO cannot work if there will be a place on Earth where anybody could hide from it.
Of course, as Russian I hope that it will be Russia, but if it will, hardly it will be because of Putin and his government. More like because of way how things work here. :)
Potential places where NWO could also fail for one or another reason - Argentina, Brasil, Iran, may be even some African countries. However, without nuclear weapons they will be in higher danger.
Also, there is potential of adding India to that list, but I'm not shure. From one side - hinduism, Ghandi and all that sloppiness that will be a huge obstacles for NWO, but from the other side some kind of excess servility.
Or, may be, it is another fake reason for another shit they want to roll out.
I don't think -10°C winter weather is something that really worth R&D of weather weapons.
If such weather is a threat to some infrastructure, that just mean that somebody stole a lot of money building that infrastructure. If infrastructure designed to withstand any freezing temperatures below 0°C, even -1°C, then it is just a matter of very little effort to make it withstand -50°C. Just use good quality thermal insulation and some common sense. If you saving money on that, it is a misdeed. If infrastructure was not designed for below 0°C at all, it is a obvious crime. In any case it is a theft.
There is no much difference between -1°C and -10 or even -30°C from the infrastructure point of view. If infrastructure was built correctly, then it is just a question of little more energy to compensate losses, nothing more.
Of course, for me -10°C is a regular very mild winter weather, but I suppose temperatures below water freezing point (0°C) is not something outstanding in most of US.
So, it is infrastructure quality question, not weather one.
But altogether government is a different beast, a far more dangerous beast, because it operates completely outside the realm of consent, unlike a legitimate free market corporation.
There could not be consent, if you don't have a choice. Today, for employee there is not much choice among corporations. Everywhere he will find same totalitarism of "ruling class", without any signs of free market inside corporations.
Only small businesses today give their employees some sense of freedom and democracy in relations between employer and employees. In smal businesses, at least, you could just talk with boss about changing salary because of inflation or take a few days off, just because you want, deny to do some stupid shit and what is more important - to succesfully convince your boss that it is a total shit. All that stuff that represent kind of free market inside enterprise. But corporations colluded with state to destroy small business now. And further it goes, you have less and less possibility to find a job in a nice and friendly place instead of corporate socialist slavery.
Could Russians "quit Russia" and just leave whenever they want?
No. And it is not because Russia somehow hold them or do not allow to leave. But because other corporations states are in the same cartel trying to prevent that kind of migration between owners and do not accept those who just want to "change owner". It is nearly impossible to acquire permanent residence, not even talking about citizenship of another state. And it is not only Russin citizens could not do it freely. Try, say, to leave US and settle in, say, Germany without eneormous amount of money or selling yourself to some German employer on very unpleasant conditions.
Nearly same thing was in USSR, but only for Jews. If you are Jew, you are free to leave at anytime. Others, to be allowed to leave had to prove for the state that their "new owner" will definitely accept them - job offer, marriage to the citizen of another state, whatever reason had to be presented.
In corporations things are much worse - you could leave, but first you have to "finish your job", "transfer all knowledge to successor and teach him" and do anything top managers tell you to leave freely and have a chance to find a new job in another corporation. If you ultimately leave without fulfilling all your obligations and demands of employer, than you could even be fined for "breaking contract before the term", and other corporation hardly will accept you for similar job level without positive letter from your previous employer. And there is nonzero probability that you will be unemployed for significant time after that. Today things become much worse. If you somehow fall under "not obeying agenda", nobody from cartel will hire you.
Its different because a corporation has to sell a product that people want at a price they can afford to pay.
Seriously? Corporations want to sell a product that will bring maximum profit. What people really want doesn't matter at all. There is propaganda machine named "advertising" that push necessary narrative telling customers what they have to want.
And you still talking about things outside corporation. I'm talking more about how corporation looks inside. And inside corporation you coud find only extreme socialism all way long. There is absolutely nothing capitalistic inside corporation. Absolute totaliarism, hierarchy, no any democracy at all, total planning, kind of social free services for workers (from free lunch to free showers) as the mirage of compensation for lowest possible payments, when most of profit made by employees is taken out by corporation top and owners. Fuck, USSR even gave more back to citizens(employees) and expropriated less. That is the only difference between any corporation and USSR.
Amazon still has anything you can think of at your house in 2 days with no shipping fee.
From 1.5 to 5 times more expensive than on aliexpress for same china crap. And again you completely missing the point, trying to shift conversation to the outside manifestations of corporations. While I'm talking about how corporations work inside. And inside they have total, extreme socialism.
And inside Amazon you will find absolute socialism with Bezos as General Secretary of Socialist Amason Party whose ideology and orders are obligatory for workers. Those who protest are punished and has no any perspective.
Does socialist government have to consider you and get you good services?
Socialist goverments don't give a shit about his citizens, but always try to look perfect externally using all means including external propaganda.
Literally in the same way, corporations don't give a shit about their employees, but try to look perfect externally using all means including external propaganda they name "advertising" that is much worse and have much more lies than similar external propaganda of any socialist government.
Corporations, their owners and top managers - are extreme socialists. Worse than any socialist state with its state political party and state bureaucrats ever. North Korea looks pretty nice in comparison with any more or less known corporation.
And don't try to shift that question again, to the outside image of corporations. I'm talking about inside structure and working of corporations, not their external propaganda and weak attempts to play free market outside.
A large business still needs to sell a product that customers want at a price they want to pay.
But somehow there is no any free market at all for large corporations. On a free market price of good is a result of negotiated compromise between seller and buyer. Try to negotiate price of anything produced by a large corporation. Hardly you will even get to the person who able to decide the price. If you are not buying a very large batch of product you absolutely have no any chances. That is exactly the same as socialistic "prices set by government".
Note that these big Corporations are not terrorizing us independently
Corporations terrorize their employees inside and totally deprive them from any decisions and control over top managers, exactly like socialist government terrorize their citizens-employees inside. No any difference at all.
Because government is a different beast than Corporations with a different nature.
What make you think so? Any government today is really a corporation that make profit by taking away huge part of what people earned. Even changing one government to another looks same as changing one empoyer to another. With all possible nuances. How is it different from corporation?
Name me a single more or less large business owner who is not pure and absolute socialist.
They are all, without any exception, implement the worst kind of socialism on their enterprises, with all socialism features, from central planning and ideological propaganda to fixed salaries and absence of real rights and freedoms of workers.
If you imagine, that USSR was just a large corporation owned by a top communist patry leaders, then you will find absolutely no differences in the organisation of that corporation and any of modern corporations at all.
Large business is a socialism in pure form. There is nothing about capitalism inside it.
Amazing Polly dig out some shit on this. Musk who banned West on Twitter for posting Raelian Movement logo had been awarded by Raelian Movement with the name of Honorary Guide (whatever that means) in 27April 2022, months before that stuff with West rised up in October.
From all religions, nothing could be closer to pedo cult than Judaism. Abdolutely senseless, bloody and sexually deviated rithuals starts right from the birth of poor Jewish boy. Cutting the infant dick by rabbi, sucking the infant dick by rabbi - what could be more pedo?
As for Orthodox church, the percentage of pedos among priests is lowest over any other religions, lower than the level of regular population. And much lower than among politicians and oligarchs, especially liberal ones. Pedos don't rush to become cleric here. In Russia, traditionally, caught pedos do not live long. Pedophilia is punished like vicious murder and pedofiles fall into jail where mostly murderers spend their lifes. And even worst Russian murderers hate pedofiles a lot. With all consequesnces for the pedos. Nobody think out new terms for pedos, like "minor attracted" and no one will ever tolerate them. Especially in church.
What about peat? Is it from misterous processes in Earth core too? Or somehow peat is not a fuel?
It is a very old tech, basically, you make syngas ( mix of CO and H2 ) by electrolysing pressurized (~6bar) carbonated water at high temp (~200°C), then do a catalytic synthesis of liquid carbonhydrates from syngas. You could even combine electrolysis and synthesis in one-shot process adding catalyst to electrolysis step. You could make methanol, ethanol or other flammable things depending on catalyst, CO:H2 ratio and synthesis conditions you use.
The problem is that you need a lot of electricity and relatively complex device for that process. It is much easier to get syngas directly from fossil fuels or even wood (woodgas from gas generator), bypassing needless and highly ineffective conversion of fuel into electricity and then electricity into fuel. Then, do with syngas whatever you want - fuel ICE directly with syngas or synthesize liquid fuel for later use in ICE.
All in all it is very energy hungry process that is affordable only if you somehow have a lot of electricity. And by "a lot of" I mean really a lot needed to produce some decent amount of fuel enough for regular rides, not what you could harvest from even an acre of solar panels.
In the eyes of those who believe in 100500 genders, politicians, safe and effective vaccinations, elections, MSM, democracy and corporations advertising - yes, we are definitely completely and totally insane. How dare we are to not accept all that wonderful things!. :)
Can I get an appointment?
You already have it. Just wait for your turn. If you are impatient, you could jab yourself or follow different terrorist organisations like WEF, WHO, etc. However I think that will be considered as suicide.
Top manager of Russian Orthodox Church as institution is Patriarch. His official statement about vaccination was clear:
https://tass.ru/obschestvo/13267937 (google translate denied to translate that page, so try another online translator)
"I am convinced that to be vaccinated or not is not a doctrinal question at all. This is a purely medical issue, a matter of personal choice and responsibility of a person, his life experience. In this regard, the abuse of pastoral power on this and similar issues is completely unacceptable, and even more so vaccination cannot be considered as a sign of apostasy. Even if the whole world becomes an arena of immune segregation, the church must remain free from such segregation and accept all people striving for Christ."
The head of Russian Orthodox Church is Jesus Christ, not some bureaucrat. So, priests are free to have their own opinions on whatever social or political questions. Orthodox church is purely religious hierarchy, not social or political. Most pastors in Russian churches warned their parishioners about harms of coronahoax vaccination and was more than sceptical about coronahoax as whole. Very few stopped church services during lockdowns. This is one of the reasons why Russia have one of the lowest vaccination rate in the world. There are a lot of priests who are openly fighting against accepting individual taxpayer numbers (something like SSN in US), QR codes and whatever digital NWO shit. Globalists are considered a threat to humanity and obvious puppets of Antichrist that will promise fake paradise on Earth in exchange for human souls. And of course none of pastors will ever accept such nonsences as gay marriage or other gender insanity. God created only men and women, as two distinct but compatible to each other flesh and spirit creatures, everything else is from Devil.
Top managers of Russian Orthodox Church often appear too servile to the state, but most priests at local levels are pretty based. Absence of Catholic-like total hierarchy with self-proclamed Pope on the top who could speak in the name of Jesus and push garbage into the faith perfectly protect Russian Orthodox Church against adding any political shit into the Orthodox faith.
So, yes, Russia will preserve Cristianity, Cristian view on the family and society and that is why it will stay white.
Khodorkovsky is a Jewish thief and musrderer, who stole public oil industry during Grand Theft of USSR citizens property named "privatization", he was jailed for a tiny 14 years for that crime only because of his interference with politics. You hardly know that he was pardoned by Putin before the end of his jail time, so he was in jail only for 10 years. He was obvious foreing asset of TPTB, to the poiint that after release he was fled abroad the private jet immidiately given by one of "former" German top official. None of stolen property was ever returned to owners - USSR citizens. His main company Ukos was bankrupted and sold to selected oligarchs. Billions he hoarded abroad was left intact and after his emigration he easily returned for his billionare life.
Ukos was a largest Russian oil company, so if all that justice circus was for real, each Russian citizen would have get a share of nearly a half of Russian oil industry with apropriate dividents.
Moreover, after his emigration also circus court in EU order to compensate all confiscated property of Khodorkovsky by seizing and selling Russian state foreing assets. So, Russians not only got absolutely nothing back from that Jewish thief, but also had to pay him more from their tax money.
Today Khodokovsky is wealthy (billionare) and alive somewhere on West. Russians got nothing and even paid him indirectly.
Obviously, it would have been much better for Russians if there was no any circus trial and he was just killed somehow.
