Not the same, if you encroach on their territory is different than the other way around. Also we kill billions of animals a day for lesser offenses. Like swag said, at the end of the day it's a fucking animal it's not going to get due process, if there's a good chance it will cause damage or loss of life then it's gotta go.
The inflation is INSANE. It's literally crazy what's going on, especially when it comes to food. I predicted it many months ago, Europe will crumble and winter will shit all over us. I expect 2-3h daily of blackouts during the winter. Unfortunately I think companies will disappear over the night because this is too crazy
Oh for sure. I expect many protests and possibly violence. I don't think majority of Europe will find it very easy to get used to expensive stuff, high inflation and more painful winters because even companies will have temperature set at 19 instead of 22-23. I also expect many EU governments to crash as I don't think many will want to be in the chair when shit hits the fan. Electricity and food will make countries grab each others throats as soon as October arrives.
short answer: not gonna happen
long answer: The doomposting twitter bubble is seriously overrating russia's power over the EU on any other timeframe than the very short term and seriously underrating the measures which have been undertaken in the last 6 months to fix previous fuck-ups and to build independence from russian ressources once and for all. Our new batshit crazy Green foreign and economic secretaries turned out to be a blessing in disguise.
No, scratch that. The aforementioned bubble is well aware of what I wrote above. What they actually do is try and imprint a more russia-friendly stance into the american public by pointing at 'how much europe is struggling so we should better be friends with the powerful putin! Ukraine provoked the war themselves anyway!'

Russian Superpower You know how we make fun of Italy for being lazy bums or whatever? Italy's GDP is 25% above Russia's.
EU overall GDP exceeds Russia by factor ~12
Normally I would have said that in 10 years russian citizens will be shitting in the yard because of poverty but they already do
Or that they would make 100€ per month but they already do. Or that their military wouldn't be able to win a war against a small neighbour but it already can't.
As the years go by, they will be buried so deep into the ground that in 5000 years archaeologists won't be able to identifiy the crusty clumps as the shithole formerly known as Russia. Oh I laff
