    Old enough to remember that everybody cared so very much about making sure big western companies stop doing business in Russia.

      I remember how r/Ukraine was obsessed by this. There was that boycot list of companies that were still operating in Russia that kept being reposted over and over again. I don’t know how they’re doing these days but I wouldn’t bet that they are still doing this.

        A lot of western companies ended up quietly crawling back after the initial virtue signalling. It’s kind of hilarious how people expect capitalists to put ideology over profits.
