Yandex are apparently banned from NYSE. There are countless other articles like this one on countless other sites, about countless other companies.
Beyond the stupidity of giving Russia nothing to lose, is ANYONE considering the fallout this, at all? Like how Trudeau inadvertently triggered a run on the banks when he froze truckers' assets, How do we think asian corporations are going to respond to the knowledge that, should their country sufficiently piss off the west's ruling corpocracy, they will get fucked over in ANY and ALL business they have with the west?
This is madness. There isn't a rational thought in anyone's head at this point. The west is destroying international faith in its economic infrastructure.
It's suicide.
Four components of manipulation
F.A.T.E.
Focus: Focus to a story, or a narrative.
Authority: Claimed authority or expert claims it is thus it must be true
Tribe: Tribalism division amongst racial, ideological, ethnic, national lines.
Emotions: Use of emotional charged messaging to push a narrative.
You can establish control and manipulate with just one of these components. The more components that are in use the stronger hold you have over your target. If all four are established you have a zealot.
