So... exactly the situation you're trying to avoid in the UK? Don't cross the regime or you get de-banked? At least Charles isn't tossing people out windows yet.
At least Charles isn't tossing people out windows yet.
I find this 'window-tossing' nonsense to be quite interesting. Apparently, the UK is much better than Russia, because while it arrests more people for comments on social media, allows the rape of teenage girls if the perpetrators are Pakistanis, and butchers hundreds of thousands of people around the world in US-sponsored wars, no one has died because... horrors of horrors... of being pushed out of a window.
Do you think no one gets arrested in russia? All those high profile political murders are just a random iceberg tip floating around with nothing underneath?
Russia's 'don't fuck with us' policy: so long as you don't siphon money from Russia to somewhere else and don't attempt to oppose military policy, you're fine.
The UK's 'don't fuck with us' policy: suck the feminine dick, don't bring up our failed immigration policy, don't bring up the grooming gangs, don't publicly run on a campaign that highlights how we are selling our native population out to foreigners who are here for the free gibs. This may change depending on our feelings.
I wouldn't want to live in Russia either, but I think while they are more openly violent or authoritarian than the West, they are less totalitarian. Ironically that might be possible because of the violence. People naturally don't cross the authority on small things if they can help it. In the West we still have the notion and trappings of liberty, so we still freely express wrongthink and are surprised when we get arrested for it.

More people get arrested for comments on social media in the UK than in Russia.
But I'm assured by the TV that UK very good and Russher BAD.
