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

[stomachgrowls]

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 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.

Presidential election in Russia is still on 2024

Could they afford or able to withstand to wait up for that long.Isnt that possible to have some impeachment?
With this kind of leader then they would really be fucking up their situation but its true that there would be still supporters.

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.

This may be a good idea but there is no guarantee that you will win every time. If you don't win, how will you donate that money? It would be very useful if the money could be given to those helpless people, but it will not be possible in the way you have shown. Because if you lose then you are giving more revenue to that website and by doing this they are getting more economic power. So it is up to the players to decide whether they will boycott the website of a particular country or not.

The discussion now becomes more political and there might be sensitive issues that don't really need to be discussed here since generally, most people, even including me, are just relying on what they saw on the internet. Therefore, most exchange of responses here is just a product of their own though without knowing internally what's the real thing that's happening in the ongoing conflict.

Back to topic, can anyone confirm if these boycotts of all Russian-based gambling platforms, fiat or crypto-based, really happened?

Or still a subject of discussion like "what if" it will happen?

[savetheFORUM]

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 wasn't expected, that's the problem. They were already focusing on becoming energy self sufficient by 2030 to 2035 between each other, that was good enough for them and they didn't really consider there would be a war that would cause this to get quicker. In the end, the war happened in 2022 and now they are holding their money in their hands.

If they pay Russia, which they have to, then they would be basically financing Russia to attack Ukraine, if they pay Ukraine then they are paying it with the Russian oil they used to make that money, all in all it is not a good decision and they will end up with some problems and that's why I believe it is not going to be easy.

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.

As far as I know, Putin was democratically elected by the people. If the Russians don't like what their leader is doing, let them change him and end this war. If they let him rule, it means they support what he does and take the consequences into account.

Do they really support him or  they cant do anything because if they do tend to oppose then they do know on what would happen to them which is something not surprising.

As an ordinary citizen even though in a democratic country then you would really be putting yourself into soo much trouble if you do make out steps which would oppose on what the
government is currently doing.

There's no one could  stop this war but Putin himself would be making out decisions.

[bitgov]

There's no one could  stop this war but Putin himself would be making out decisions.

Believe me, if Russia continues to sink into problems caused by sanctions and boycotts, there will be someone who will finally thank Putin in an appropriate way for his insane policies. Let's not forget that Russia has a very long and rich tradition of removing heads of state literally.

I choose to be neutral and not to interfere in Russia's affairs with its invasion of Ukraine. because I don't know the truth behind it. and I don't know which one is to blame. If you have to join the boycott of Russia then it doesn't make sense. unless you know exactly what is wrong and right with strong evidence. or you are on the battlefield.

because I think of a lot of Russians who don't actually support this war or invasion. only a few support it. So if it's boycotted then I think the impact will be on people who don't approve of this war as well. so being neutral is my choice. And we know that it is not only Russians who are participating in the Russian gambling platform

When the armies of one country enter the territory of another country, it is called an invasion. A military invasion on territory of another country without its agreement and attacking its army and all kinds of objects is called a war. What do you not understand?

Putin has the greatest negative impact on people, and we can reduce his money to continue this war by boycotting Russian casinos.

Can we reduce his money?! I tried to find some information about how much Russia earns annually from the gambling industry, but I could not find anything concrete... but I found this one "Russia's oil and gas revenue last year added $119 billion to Kremlin"! I doubt that Russia earns close to that figure from gambling!

I think that these boycotts and bans are just war games and strategies... I'm against it all! Instead of working on reconciliation, all parties are working on deepening the conflict, inflammatory statements and actions are coming from all sides, and that is why, unfortunately, I think that all this will last! The question is what the world will look like when this is over, I doubt that it's possible to return to some "normal" ever again. Not to mention all other burning conflicts around the world, I guess when this ends some new wound will be opened soon after!

Of course, Russia earns the most from the sale of oil and gas, which is why the European Union and other countries impose sanctions on Russia and slowly stop buying. (It is known that they cannot stop overnight.)
The question is why Putin started this war? Let Putin end it and there will be no conflict.
Boycotting casinos and reducing the Russian government's income from casinos is something we as an international community can do to peacefully protest against a senseless war.

It is true that by boycotting Russian gambling websites, it is not possible to inflict major economic losses on them. Because Russia has a huge supply of oil from the oil sector, Europe is dependent on Russian oil, so they have to buy oil from Russia no matter how much they impose sanctions. But there are ordinary community members like us who are here and who want peace in the world Gamblers can boycott Russian websites if they want to take a stand against the Russian attack on Ukraine. So it would be entirely a personal decision of a gambler.

Boycotting with Russia gambling platform website I think not effective yet for Russia economic impact, have been several time before United State and several European countries give suspend from stop using Russia oil but still not working yet with Russia invasion yo Ukraine. I think bad reason if try to boycott Russia gambling website because they don't support with war.

You're probably right about the impact of such an action on Russia's economy. That doesn't mean we should sit back and do nothing. The actions of the Russian military against Ukraine on whose soil the invasion is taking place are not only crimes against Ukraine, but crimes against the entire world. A sovereign nation was invaded and part of its territory was illegally annexed by Russia and Putin's actions are a threat to peace in the entire region. It is an injustice that shouldn't be tolerated by anyone.

Regarding economic repercussions, Russia is really hurting at the moment. The ruble has lost nearly half of its value since the beginning of the year, inflation is running high, and Russian businesses and individuals are the ones who are most hurt by such sanctions.

As for the Europe, that has shown time and again its capability to stand up to a bullying Russia. Now it should continue to show this quality. There are certain principles in international relations that must be respected, such as sovereignty, territorial integrity, and the non-use of force. We cannot agree to Russia violating international law in this way. The only question that remains is whether Europe is prepared to stand up to this.

In many countries that adhere to communist ideology, impeaching is impossible (although the united russian party says communism is no longer alive in russia)...

the power of communist ideology has been tested for its nationalist doctrine to the community, they don't even hesitate to use violence on demonstrators. Just look at the beginning of the invasion, there was a lot of news about citizens holding demonstrations against the invasion but now that's not there anymore. boycotting is no longer effective, putin is not affected by it.

Wont really be giving out any impacts at all which is definitely true because no matter how many sanctions would be implied or applied it cant really be denied in terms of oil supply
which surrounding countries would really be needing it so they wont really be having no choice,plus they do have big reserves which might Putin be that really confident
no matter how bad the situation is in speaking with sanctions or overall.Its been so long but still the war hasnt ended yet which do really shows something in relation
with its power and economic sustainability.

[kamilah147]

Boycott all gambling platforms in Russia as a form of sanctions imposed for the invasion of Ukraine, the problem is that some gambling sites are domiciled in Russia, we don't know all of them and also those site owners are not responsible for the current war. Not all Russian citizens agree with the war that is happening now, they are only a small group who agree and drag all Russian citizens into war sanctions. Some Russian gambling platforms will be very influential because of this war, some even leave the site for fear that something will happen because of the war.

^ This is a good and neutral comment, it really depends on us as a gambler if we support to boycott and we cannot generalize this situation.
Even there is a sanction against to the Russian but online gambling industry should not be affected by this implementation, this is a business, and not only the Russian people are affected, but the owner of these casinos also are not owned by Putin so I think there is no need to support the boycott in my own.
However, let them decide on their own, and probably the majority win if everyone in favor to support the boycott, there should be a voting pole for this.

Boycotting casinos and reducing the Russian government's income from casinos is something we as an international community can do to peacefully protest against a senseless war.

the reason for Putin's invasion? This question made me choose neutral. because a country will not be able to carry out an invasion without a very, very strong reason. because there is also news that says that Russia is doing this because it is for the sake of Russia's own security that is threatened. So Russia chose to invade first. And the target of this invasion was told by Putin in his speech that the goal was the President of Ukraine. but the president of ukraine instead ordered his citizens to fight while he himself went into hiding. if the ukraine president really loves its citizens then he will definitely be willing to sacrifice for the safety of its citizens. But the news that arrived was that the president of ukraine was hiding when its citizens were fighting back and there were many victims and before the invasion, Putin had warned ukraine a lot about the problems of both sides. so that there is no war. but it's only through the news and I don't know the truth. I am not a person who will take action if there is no clear certainty.
And about Russian casinos, I don't think it's effective to boycott it because it's not only Russians who join. but many from different countries. so that those who will be harmed are not focused on Russia but become detrimental to all people from various countries that are in it.
I hope Putin stops this soon. because you are right. this is the decision in the hands of putin himself

Still have different opinion with boycott Russia gambling platform because some people think gambling is not any relationship with war invasion to Ukraine. But some opinion claimed Russia gambling have pat tax helped war invasion. I tjink second opinion is wrong because all gambling Russia site never agree with war invasion. Maybe stop with boycott is better thing how Russia gambling site not get effect from war invasion and kee running like usually.
