    Yeah, how many times Anticorruption Foundation told “this money is stolen, getting bribes is day job of this official”, yet nothing was done. Still not enough is done. Even now sanctions seems to be sabotaged:

    • Average russian citizen that runs away from being drafted, being killed or killing other people should cross border naked or his posessions will be confiscated. Including phone, shoes and clothes.
    • Very welcome totaly not putin oligarchs/corruptioners can keep their fleet of BMWs and yachts, while still actively supporting war.

    And corporate fuckery:

    • MacDon given so much food for propaganda by “leaving” country, while they can force-buy everything back for one rouble(about one cent).

        One of two Putin’s yacht was impounded by Italy after second invasion. Putin still has his second yacht. And Anti-Corruption Foundation(started by Navalny) had to fight beaurocracy and legal system to get it impounded.

        Funfact: to pay for only one yacht he would need to be president for over 8000 years. Not over 9000, but very close.
