Would you support a collective boycott of all Russian gambling platforms?

[Desmong]

I have caught myself thinking, that I hardly can remember Russian gambling platform, that supports cryptocurrency. I am speaking about completely Russian platform, not a platform that supports Russian language and has a site weird machine translation. I remember only platforms that mainly support Russian rubles, and rarely EUR and USD. As a crypto forum, boycotting Russian rubles, that looks funny

This thread is only for entertainment purposes which I think, cause how possible can this be achieved?

The question is, does using a Russian gambling platforms make Putin put on more aggression against Ukrainian goverment?
Does avoiding using gambling sites maybe linked to Russian citizens make the war end? I don't think so, so why are we so eaggered attacking gambling platforms that has nothing to do with the war?

I think there is division in world to have peace - if there is no equality than this kind of war will continue.
Powerful will keep suppressing the weak countries. The sanctions won't work if the reins will be in powerful landlords.

The division has existed for a long time but we don't see it clearly because the big powers are very good at hiding it from the public. But now, the division is increasingly visible because each major country does not want to comply with the wishes of other countries. Maybe we will see a dark era because of this war and more people will suffer.

I also agree with you, I think both countries have suffered in their own way, of course the Ukrainians have had a more open, more visible suffering, within the Russian people there are disagreements and there must be many things that we do not even imagine could happen to them, no I know that it is better at the moment, on the one hand they are destroying Mairiúpol and they have not taken Kyiv, I think that the last city to take will be the CAPITAL, in some news I saw that the Ukrainians needed a lot of help so that they do not finish attacking them. For now, I think a Russian boycott would not only put an end to many entrepreneurial initiatives, but it would all be a very bad thing, unemployment figures would be very large.

I think Russia's boycott will impact Russia and other countries, even those far away from Russia, because they are still dependent on commodities from Russia. As we already know, Russia asks other countries that want to place orders for its goods to use the Ruble, which can trigger price volatility. Of course, this will impact the economy of each country.

There is no doubt that it was Russia who attacked Ukraine. It is Russian soldiers who are in Ukraine. Russia is to blame for people suffering. The only peaceful thing we can do is stop helping Russia by supporting its budget with taxes from the casinos. The more Russia is boycotted and sanctioned, the sooner it will end this war.

I don't think that will happen because we know that Russia has a lot of goods that other countries need and Russia's support for those goods for the world economy is huge. Just imagine what will happen if the boycott of Russia continues while many of those countries need goods from Russia, and it will have a big impact on those countries. But I believe that sooner or later, the war will end and for now, the people of both countries still need to be patient.

I wish the world see the other side as well and play a role in stopping war in other countries as well.
There is discrimination between white and black and there is so much hate spreading in the world on the name of pace and war. May we all witness the dawn of peace.

We all want peace.

But there are also those people in authority that don't want that to happen. Because if they want it so, they'll be the one to initiate it but they don't.

I think there is division in world to have peace - if there is no equality than this kind of war will continue.
Powerful will keep suppressing the weak countries. The sanctions won't work if the reins will be in powerful landlords.

And the same goes with the idea of ignoring businesses that are from there. It's possible that in the other side of the world, there's also this idea that they have in their minds.

Russia has been doing this for many years like US - these powerful states have done more damage to the world than good. If they utilize their efforts toward REAL peace - than the world would be a better place to live in the real term rather than all the mess they have created in the name of peace.

It was a very big mistake of many European countries to become dependent on Russian gas and oil. They cannot resign from importing overnight, but the European Union has already introduced laws reducing imports from Russia. Russia will be losing customers and shortly will no longer have enough income to cover the cost of the war. We also, can limit tax revenues from Russian casinos by boycotting them. It may not be much, but if we can help shorten this war, why not do this?

It's a utopia, we've been dreaming of that happening.

But sad to say that even if we reach the highest point of peacekeeping, there will be some intruders and people in high powers that don't want to see it come.

Because they have an agenda to play on for their personal gain and interest. So no matter what we tell them about peace, they'll just ignore it.

Maybe it was a mistake but for now, European countries still cannot escape Russia and try to comply with Russia's wishes if they still want to get gas and oil supplies from Russia. I'm not sure if Russia will lose customers and have no income to cover the costs of the war because, if I'm not mistaken, China will stay behind Russia and send food supplies to Russia. But whether it's true or not, I don't know. I think the climax phase of the Ukraine-Russia war is over and now it is likely to be a sloping phase and there could be peaceful consolidation after this.

[LUCKMCFLY]

I completely agree. If the Russian government lifted the 15-year prison-sentence threat for anyone protesting the war, we would at the very least see half the country rise against Putin.  15 years in a Siberian Gulag is a tough pill to swallow for normal people, so therefore I am not going to betitle those who have been scared into silence as cowards.

The blind hatred towards Russians, especially those living in other countries is disgusting. This is how things escalate towards mass xenophobic genocides. Although we are not quite pushing Russians into gas chambers yet, I still don't like seeing innocent people beat up in the streets or having their cars lit on fire because they spoke russian in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Look at what some countries like Croatia are doing: taking away citizenship from Russians. So what, deport them into a warmongering country that they don't want to live in? Great idea, Croatia. Genius idea.

In today's world most of the people are well aware what are the after affects of the war. Russian are not free to protest but need of the time is to stop implementing force on the weak. On the other hand we daily see Israelis torturing Palestinians and there is no opposing. There is a need for equality and there is a need for tolerance. May we all see the dawn of peace Ameen

Well I still think that the sanctions that have been given to Russia are quite serious and I think they can greatly impoverish the Russian people, if President Putin at least put aside that war they have, things could be improved, I think the war has ended the lives of many people who depend on their businesses, on their clients who are Europeans, Americans, it is not only because of the boycott that can be generated, but the opportunities for people to grow are disintegrating, attacking a business model that has become Wherever it comes from it will bring consequences, the biggest and what hurts the most is that many people are left without a livelihood.

I believe that's one factor that holding them up, the gas supply from Russia. Many are still depending on Russia and they have no other immediate alternatives for now. Hence, even if there are sanctions from other countries, the neighboring countries are mum about the situation. We don't know when will this be over but definitely, both economic status of these countries are in bad situation and they need long years to recover from the aftermath of war.

Although I believe sanctions on online services may not stick, I am still 100% ok with them.

Sanctions are indeed a weapon. The sanctions on North Korea had people starving to death, so I am thinking that this is going to do more damage than people realize.  But we can't let dictators do as they want in this world. Putin is the Zar of oligarchs. Not the Zar of Russia.

The world is now dealing with a cornered and scared dictator. Where in the world can he hide now? Now the entire world knows he is a criminal thug and has never been anything more.

The Soviet Union's collapse made the worst crooks the leaders of countries by law of violence and corruption. Look at Kazachstan, same deal. Crooks in power, stealing Billions from their own people.

I think we are going out of the topic as this is about Gambling in which not an economic topic mate so lets return to what we need to contribute here.

though talking about the OIL? this is the main problem now and so why the economy of the world is dumping.

I will still believe that Boycott should take place , because we are the one who will have to act .

[leea-1334]

I would support if for one thing that I would then have to support boycott of all aggressor countries, which by the way includes almost every single big country whose companies and citizens run casinos,,, so no in the end I will not boycott a casino just because it was Russian.

We will all be watching and betting on World Cup soon, are we boycotting it because the host is known for human rights abuses?

Russia has been doing this for many years like US - these powerful states have done more damage to the world than good. If they utilize their efforts toward REAL peace - than the world would be a better place to live in the real term rather than all the mess they have created in the name of peace.

I seldom comment on things like this but I can say one thing for sure,,, war is profitable. All wars are waged by governments yes but they are manufactured,,, produced,,, fought by corporations. Arms supply, arms trade, military training, transport, logistics, research and development, production. This is all companies with massive profits. Check defense budgets of all countries, millions and billions per contract paid to private contractors who by the way work for many governments even on both sides of war.

Until war stops being profitable,,, they will not stop.

[zidanw]

It seems that the boycotting of the russian gambling site doesn't have much effect since there is still an ongoing war in Ukraine I think the most funds they are getting is from oil and not just in gambling and as you can see even if there's a lot of sanctions they are still operating.  How long would this war last I hope this end soon.

That's what happened in neighboring countries. Instead of boycotting Russia by participating in providing sanctions, neighboring countries are helping Russia and there is no problem with Russia. As a result of war, it will take years to recover and it is not easy to overcome so various assistance is also needed from other countries.

Hm, not because the boycott here doesn't only in the gambling business but also in other businesses so I think it's still related to the boycott itself.

The boycott affects all businesses from Russia, but the impact is unlikely to be large as many of these countries still need Russia. So the real possibility is that those affected are countries that boycott and impose sanctions on Russia.

Yes and the war continues and even worst now , also the effect in the world economy is taking part so I thing that there are other ways we need to conduct so this could damage the capacity of Russia to continues their attack against small country like Ukrain.
but of course with our support this can still put small point to their capacity .

[perla]

Maybe we should change our strategy instead of not playing, we can just support directly to Ukraine by donating 5% or 10% of our winnings to help at least the immigrants and the kids that is affected by this war that is started by Putin.

[Bushdark]

I love Russians even though the people has no power to resist the trauma Putin is causing right now. This will not make me have bad feelings to my friends who are from Russia and support the boycott of all Russian gambling platform. We all want peace in this world, so we should not try to escalate more scene that can effect our fight to stop Mr Putin from carrying out an aggressive attack on Ukrainian goverment again.

Putin had shown that he has what it takes to attack any nation that come against him and the best way to prove him wrong is not in this form. The move to boycott gambling platforms that are linked to Russian may looks like a good move but I don't think it will have effects on Putin's decision.

It was Putin decision alone and as we can see the Russians too are suffering from his decision imagine a lot of companies stop working in your country and other international services and the economy is collapsing, whos citizen would like that? Now not only the Ukranian  people are suffering but also Russian too.

I guess they are going for a ceasefire for a moment for having some peace talk with both country it gives a lot of damage to both properties and the economy itself and also there are a lot of people does not want to get affected with this war needs to leave their business and houses to make sure they are still safe. If this might continues all of the processes and activities that came from the Russia might against the people but still, we don't want them to suffer to from the people who really don't want. Also the expenses came from the source of the food might affect other countries too.

I get that Russians could be suffering from his own mistakes, and I get that toppling a dictator may not be easy, but I really doubt that he is not getting any votes. This means that even if it is not enough to keep him as president and he illegally fixes the elections, there must be some people who vote for him, he can't just fix the elections if he was getting 2000 votes total, he must be getting plenty, and that's the issue.

If people are fine with it, if there are still supporters, if they are not just forcing him out, then there must be some people who support him. If you dislike him, that's fine, plenty of people disliked Trump and voted for Biden, get him out if you want Russia to be better.

[mrongoz_imut]

War invasion between Russia and Ukraine keep running almost one month more, I think not effective with several time boycott Russia from giving economic punishment and susspend sport competition for Russia country. Just left one way only after not effective with many time suspended and boycott trough negotiation between Rusia and Ukraine how they can stop war and back to normal activities life.
