    And that doesn’t cover enough. They have reactive armor over still thinner armor, and javelins are made with reactive armor in mind. A javelin will punch right through that. Plus, the hatches can’t really be covered either, and it is difficult to cover the engine too.

    That is really just wishful thinking. It might stop older RPGs and AT-4s from an elevated position, but other than that it’s a placebo.

    Effective video from Arnold Schwarzenegger..

    In the world I see, you are stalking elk through the damp canyon forests around the ruins of Rockefeller Center. You'll wear leather clothes that will last you the rest of your life. You'll climb the wrist-thick kudzu vines that wrap the Sears Tower. And when you look down, you'll see tiny figures pounding corn, laying strips of venison on the empty carpool lane of some abandoned superhighway.

    But Zelensky made another ask on Wednesday morning, and it’s something all Americans can help with. We can stop buying the products of businesses that continue to fund Vladimir Putin’s war machine, even after its full horrors — indiscriminately targeting civilians, murdering children — are obvious to the world.

    “All American companies must leave Russia. … Leave their market immediately, because it is flooded with our blood,” the young leader said, asking lawmakers “to make sure that the Russians do not receive a single penny that they use to destroy our people in Ukraine, the destruction of our country, the destruction of Europe. … Peace is more important than income.”

    Most American companies get that. Some 400 U.S. and other multinational firms have pulled out of Russia, either permanently or temporarily, according to Yale’s Jeffrey Sonnenfeld, who has kept the authoritative list of corporate actions in Russia. Oil companies (BP, Shell, ExxonMobil) and tech companies (Dell, IBM, Apple, Google, Facebook, Twitter) led the way, and many others (McDonald’s, Starbucks, Coca-Cola) eventually followed.

    But, according to Sonnenfeld, there are, at the other extreme, 33 companies (as of Wednesday afternoon) that form a “hall of shame,” defying demands that they exit Russia or reduce their activities there.

    Check out the list at the link highlighted above and see how much financial support you give to Russia's war in Ukraine.

    The Koch Brothers really stand out on that list.

    You had better stop eating food, break all your windows, stop using paper and tear the carpeting out of your home.

    Because, Russia.

    Here's a decent list of their product lines. Shocker, they're an oil producer and dining on the tears of Americans unable to fill their gas tanks.

    Welcome to globalization, mutual assured destruction includes financial assured destruction.

    Your outrage will do nothing to fix it.

    You're a fucking moron as always. Pointing to a graph as your sole proof of inequality causality without any information anything Bill Clinton did that created inequality. The amount of cognitive dissonance you're capable of sometimes is staggering.
