You are. Your government put sanctions on its citizens
in order to spite Russia.

1. We figured out that working together makes a nation stronger faster
   than living under a system that kicks people to the curb or kills them outright
   just because another group of people deem them inferior and a threat to their position.
   And most often these same people also sycophantically and pathetically
   suck up to other people that they deem absolutely superior
   and more civilized to their position, no matter what they do or how absurd.
2. We are disgusted by the above behavior of in one way or another.
   Either their ruthlessness, their hypocrisy or their sycophantic behavior,
   while still somehow thinking that they are better and more civilized than others.
3. We followed and notice the disconnected changing narrative
   of economic policies over time and notice that the real rules are:
   “Free market and no handouts” for thee and
   “infinite economic security” for us elite.
4. We followed and notice the disconnected changing narrative
   of election policies over time and notice that if you live in a “(liberal) democracy”,
   as branded by the US, that all the most policies are decided
   by Wall Street oligarchs, even if you’re a citizen of France or Japan.
5. We followed and notice the disconnected changing narrative
   of a violent political event over time by your local media
   and then try to figure out what else you’ve been lied about
   and notice a running theme of issue #1/2 on a global scale,
   of all “democracies”.
6. If you’re a citizen of one of these “liberal democracies”
   and looked towards “nationalists” to address issue #4,
   we have followed and noticed that these “nationalists”
   that complain about “globalism” are just “globalist racists”
   that consider issue #3, #4 and #5 to be a failure of the system in issue #1,
   that is to say, they’re being surpassed by a group of “inferior” people
   and that this group of people has to be killed outright immediately,
   before they pose any further threat.

Correct me if I’m wrong or whether Im missing something.

This is what Victionary Nuland must have meant by “nasty surpises”.
Terrorist attacks.
She was talking about terrorist attacks.

Prevent!?
To me it looks more like they want further humiliation for NATO.

Ah cool, I’ve half-constructed one as well two decades ago,
but right now I’m creating an installer for the safe network.

Can you program?

I need some help.
I procrastinate too much as well.

@yewler

I hope I’m no longer banned. (Hurray, I’m no longer banned from this place)
I’m looking at @StalinIsMaiWaifu as I was failing with 1, 3 and 4, although that was 20 years ago.

1. It’s not about “talking to people”. I’m not good at that, so that didn’t work for me.
2. The biggest win for me was joining the anime/game/book (all-rolled-into-one) club, as it was the ideal social setting for me.
3. The people I ended up making friends with were those that just joined, because those don’t have friends yet and once they do, they no longer look for new ones, just like you would.
   You should look for those people in particular.

Those are the three best advices I could give you.

How would they control cryptocoins when that stuff is uncontrollable in the first place?
I can understand Tether or Ripple, but Bitcoin and others not so much.

CIA owns tether?
