#Russia Gazprom posted this clip where Europe gradually turns into a frozen desert after its engineer flips a switch, with an ambient music and gentle woman voice singing "winter is going to be huge".

Comment from Russian Telegram:

> So fucking entertaining to watch this clip living without heating nor hot water and temperature outdoor +10 and 1500 km from "unfriendly states"
> Охуенно смотреть этот ролик сидя без отопления и горячей воды при температуре на улице +10 в полутора тысячах километров от "недружественных" стран

Russian province indeed is a paradox — people populating the largest gas exporting country in the world often don't have access to gas infrastructure. A charity website podari-drova.ru/ has been collecting money to help people living in #Russia villages collect enough fire wood for the winter, as 65% people in the region don't have gas.

Many people expect a humanitarian disaster in Russia-occupied territories in the first place, and then in Russia itself, rather than Europe which has efficient social safety network, tested during COVID.

As Russian leadership is now all sabre rattling and threatening, when this happens I'm sure they will instantly switch to "why are you not helping us" appeals, without much reflection on who caused it, as this is what thugs do.
