      In your extremely biased mind where a parallel reality exists they indeed didn’t claim what they claimed.

      Good boy

        I guess only in my biased mind is a prediction about the future not a statement about the present.

        Learn about the flow of time.

          Only in your mind is a statement not a statement…

          And at the same time a statement is a question…

          And maybe there are some flying pink elephants around there, who knows, there appears to be a lot of room.

            Since you can’t distinguish present from future

              are catastrophically crippling

              Bonus from same article:

              “the facts are that, by any metric and on any level, the Russian economy is reeling

              is going broke fast

              is spiraling

              run out of money in 2024

              (Editor’s note: it is now 2026)

                Ok? Cherry picking much?

                That’s not the conclusion they reached, is it? That’s the observation they’re making upon which they base their conclusions. The conclusion they all reached is that it will have major impacts at some undefined point in the future. But that is inconvenient for the point you’re trying to make.

                And Deripaska, still, really? He only cares about his own pockets.

                (Editor’s note: it is now 2026)

                And I guess the editor is so far up his own ass, that he didn’t realize Russia has been in a recession since end of 2025?

                  LOL, these are literally in the titles of the articles. Except for the bonus one, which is the last sentence, in the last paragraph of the one with the headline.

                  You won’t stop trying, will you? Hilarious man!

                  he didn’t realize Russia has been in a recession since end of 2025?

                  Is a recession the same as being out of money?

                  And I thought questions were forbidden…
