Block Russia

[di1776]

Why has eBay not blocked sellers from Russia. Russians are selling items stolen from Ukraine. Come on EBay, join the rest of the civilized world and cut them off!

Please.

What is Ukraine doing with bio research facilities and why don’t we stop them.

They were RUSSIAN facilities until the Soviet Union broke apart, the Ukrainians had to lock everything down safely (you’d prefer they were ignored and left to “percolate?”), and I’m sure had help from various NATO countries to do so.

What then? Teleport them elsewhere?

No, they took over the facilities for their own lab work.

By 2010, better and better people began coming into office, corruption started to decline, and along the way a rag tag, poorly trained, under supplied once-Russian military trained (again with NATO help) into the excellent troops we see now holding Russia at bay.

Pretty sure if the soldiers can learn that fast, so can medical staff and researchers.

And guess what? Spout enough Putin-admiring support at democracy’s expense, and anyone can get on Russian tv just like Tucker Carlson. A star is born every minute….wait, that’s fool.

If UPS USPS and other  delivery services stopped delivering that would do the trick, but if we do this to Russia, does China do this in kind to us?

Why on Earth would China do that?  China needs to continue commerce with the U.S. a lot more than the U.S. needs it with Russia.  And Xi Jinping is no Vladimir Putin.  His thinking isn't handicapped by narcissistic obsessions with optics and yearning for the past.  Also big parts of China are under total lockdown right now, workers not even going to their factory jobs.  So when that's over, if anything they'll be extra desperate for foreign commerce to make up for the current losses.

Wait, don't you know that Feebay stands with Ukraine? It's right there on the home page where they are asking for donations to help them. Such caring people.

You’re right about universities, although it’s probably different now than when I was in school.  I was a microbiology major, and I worked doing the lab prep and teaching the labs for the intro to micro students.  There was a running joke about us having liopholized anthrax in the lab.  Most people didn’t believe it, but I actually saw it.
