I’ve heard that US corporations will use the Philippines as focus testing for their most intrusive ads. It’s only hearsay though, and probably not strictly true.
I tell terrible jokes.

It really does seem that way, they just keep doing it and it is less effective each time, and what’s more, it also will weaken any future sanctions on any countries, as the rest of the world can look at the predictable pattern the west is using and prepare their economies to deal with it.
You’re free to chase your dreams, as long as your dreams involve making other people profit off of your labour.
Can’t compare to grilling
Really trying to a win a Pulitzer by the sounds of it.
Because by admitting to it, they can pretend to be “transparent” and can say “those evil bad guy countries never admit to anything like this.” It’s like how redditors started joking about how a CIA agent watches their every move and then just…didn’t do anything about it. An intense violation of their personal freedom that they claim to love, and they were joking about how it’s totally fine to have a government agent watch their every move. It normalises this sort of police state where every thought and opinion is carefully controlled. That’s why they admit to it, because they know that despite all the American’s bluster about “freedom” they will always fold and accept whatever “big government” is doing.
It is a fictional story though, and probably not what OP was looking for. Still a good watch to get the general “vibe” of how things work in a socialist society though.
And since they couldn’t get in in Russia, they’ll settle for Europe instead.
I’m surprised they didn’t do this earlier. Though I guess this explains all the puff piece articles about how Azov members are just smol bean nazis protecting their homeland from the evil orcs this week.
Cuban Missile Crisis 2.0? Except this time the US is even more deranged?
Why do all American politicians speak like a toddler trying to tell you a story they’re making up as they go along?
I can’t believe that they lack freedom so much that a completely organic and not at all foreign backed coup will occur in their near future. 😔
The more normalised violent international disputes become, the more likely they are to actively be aggressive towards one another though.
Ah, I see. The south keeps sending balloons filled with bullshit, so the north is just returning the gesture.
did anyone see the video of said protestors doing the Hunger Games three finger salute?
They make reference to western media so the western liberals think they love freedom and democracy, when what they really love is the money they get paid by NGOs to go to these protests.
Not that Japan has anything but and rapidly failing economy. lol
Us too in Australia! Except ours is even smaller and even more reliant on China’s.
I love the serial downvoters on these ones. Where it’s an article in the western press saying something we’ve been saying the whole time, and some lib comes in and can’t handle it, so they give a downvote to every comment. Peak lib praxis.
It was never a secret deal though? Russia’s terms were always open and clear. I guess the western media has to try and sneak in a “conniving, sinister enemy” narrative into this.
It would explain why your ads are so damn intrusive and abundant, but that could also just be due to a lack of regulation of them as well.
