You have an account in a bank that is supporting and financing a rogue pariah state. The bank is sanctioned. "Help, help, I'm being repressed!"

No they are not. The rogue pariah state of Russia is.

Huh? If you're a law-abiding Westerner not of Russian extraction and you have a Google Play or Apple App account linked to a Russian bank account you would be locked as well. So? It is not a sanction against you, it is against the bank. Get yourself a bank account not linked to a rogue pariah state.

The cultural/private company sanctions are not about putting pressure on Putin. It is a natural immune reaction of the healthy part of the world to the cancerous metastasizing cell inside it. And it is news to me that "Russian citizen" is apparently now a race.

I am sure if you are a Russian citizen working in the West and defend Putin's war, you will not be looked at kindly, quite deservedly. But if you're actually a human being, and not a Putin robot, and as such have no choice but condemn the unprovoked military invasion unreservedly, no one will...

Please explain how the West can de-nazify Russia from such "ordinary" people without affecting other "ordinary" people.

@cesfx and I seem to be of one mind.

Complete and utter bullshit. Again, I know hundreds of people. I live in Texas which is (thankfully) not a bastion of wokeness and liberal so-called "tolerance". I know urban professionals, I know hicks, and I know rednecks. I am in a bowling league FCOL. And not once have I seen even a hint of...

They are citizens of a rogue pariah state and when the state is isolated, its citizens are isolated as well. Cool then it can disband, reform under a different name and start touring. I was born in Russia. All my friends know that. I lived in the West for 40+ years. Have not encountered even one...

Absolute bullshit. People from Russia living abroad are not persecuted. Rossiyane (note: not Russians, citizens of Russia) may be, for their ties to and material support of the rogue pariah state of Russia.

I don't know if you know Russian. I do. These are your ordinary Russian citizens: Russia needs to be denazified from such people.

The criminal gang took over Russia. And as long as they were confined to Russia, no one touched them. But when you start an unhinged unprovoked military invasion in the middle of Europe, all bets are off. Rabid dogs are not treated the same as normal dogs, even if the normal dog has fleas.

I believe dxFeed will provide that.

It means that dealing with a rogue pariah state erodes the "good will" asset of the company, and the company makes the decision not to erode it. Which is exactly how it should be.

Key word: Cold War. This is actual, Hot War.

This is not playing chess. This is dealing with a gorilla that flipped the chess board and is flinging chess pieces around.

You don't seem to understand. This is not politics as usual. This is unhinged unprovoked military invasion of a European country, with nuclear threats galore. This makes Russia a rogue pariah state. With the emphasis on pariah. There is no business as usual. This is NOT usual. You think that...

There is very little distinction between government and oligarchs in Russia. It is a gang of criminals at the top, some give themselves government titles, some don't bother. I am usually very much against politics interfering in stuff like sports and arts. But this is not "politics". "Politics"...

The International Skating Union announced that no athletes from Russia or Belarus "shall be invited or allowed to participate" in any skating events until further notice. This is not exactly Wall St. News, but it accents the growing Russian isolation. Which, unless they somehow get rid of...

You realize that Russian airbnb is also (actually, primarily, AFAIU) used by Russians traveling within Russia, right?
