How come Europe and the US are so much against corruption and yet they let in all the russian corrupted politicians/officials/oligarchs/propagandists and their children, sell them houses/castles/realty, give them and their children citizenships, allow them to deposit the stolen money in the banks and so on?
>the west are a bunch of rich hypocrites telling all the peasants in the world how to live their lives from their throne and after having eaten the whole cake You are just finding out about this?
Tyler Bell
>Europe and the US are so much against corruption > fell for that bait
LOL
> a greatest hypocrisy ever? Welcome to the real life son.

Hunter Howard
freedom to be corrupt the problem is russia government impedes my freedom to sell my 3 daughters to mongolian bikers fuck this country im going to usa
Evan Clark
Their supposed crimes are commited in Russia, thus they fall under Russian jurisdiction. You should blame Putin and the Russian law enforcement.
Jonathan Martinez
> Democracy requires corruption just like engine needs motor oil Or something along the lines.
Mason Thomas
It doesn't work like this. If you are not a criminal in your home country and you haven't broken the law in your staying country nobody gives a fuck.
Justin Barnes
>europe >against corruption
You did this to yourself.
Juan Reyes
Pls respond
Dominic Evans
Fuck off pedojew.
Leo Gomez
it only affects russians and gives us more money when they buy from us
its a win win situation, russia kept a oligarchic shithole, we profit
Anthony Morris
money talks sasha, they don't have an actual ideology they just do what makes them money
today they say we need to take in gazillions of refugees because it drives down wages, and if for some reason it would be profitable to kill them all they would do it
Easton Robinson
they are just as corrupt if not more as you are but after they stole the money the common basket is still loaded and have enough to redistribute things
they also sugarcoat is, calling them lobbyists, corporations, companies, projects, management all words invented to hide the real intention, getting money without actual work
Andrew Butler
Why are they so rich then? I mean average citizen of the western country is several times richer than an average Russian Okay, they have corruption, but it is incomparable to what happens here
Adam Brooks
They have more money to operate with and less people do share with.
Gavin Jones
Corruption is an issue of your legal system.
It has nothing to do with us.
Jayden Garcia
>Why are they so rich then? Hungbro actually explained it in the post above, I barely have anything to add. Eurocrats and oligarchs are just more clever allowing regular people to have a share enough for them to live a decent life, they also undrestand that the necessary of established middle class.
Daniel Ross
Let's legalize theft like Netherlands did, we'll soon become a European country for sure.
Kevin Gutierrez
tax sandwich says the truth. Nobody is gonna catch the criminals instead of you
Nathan Ward
Pls elaborate
But they are criminals, in terms of corruption. Western country accepts a thief, and its corruption level raises. It's like accepting immigrants from Africa, but these are rich. That's the difference
Okay, not all the Europe
Fuck you
Logan Parker
they are against corruption when they aren't the ones doing it
Josiah Green
It's much more simple.
Imagine if Putin claims the stocks of an oil company for himself in Russia. What crime did he commit in the Netherlands? None at all.
Liam Allen
this pretty much it's like jailing people fucking whores in Thailand because it's illegal here
Samuel Fisher
Okay, we'll see what you say when it starts to affect you personally
Or you think moving to Europe automatically turns thieves into lawful-abiding businessmen ?
Bentley Price
The Netherlands is a monarchy. It's not in our Kings interest to allow a corrupt prime minister to exist. Our military is loyal to the King. And the military police is in charge of policing cops. The King appoints all judges and prosecutors, which are independent of our government.
Our King owns the country, is said to own up to 25% of Shell, and has large shares in most large corporations. He already owns it all. He has no reason to tolerate bullshit in his country.
John Phillips
don't the Russian ogliarch and company base their power and corruption on being a part of the Russian state?
Colton Thompson
It's fairly "inadequate" to compare your state to ours. Totally different historical backgrounds and conditions. Plus the territories are totally disparate.
Lincoln Bailey
Our King owns it all, so he has no reason to be corrupt. Your Tsar does not own it all, so he has to use mafia practices.
Jayden Barnes
Yep, this is closer to "the truth".
Nathan Garcia
Our Prime Minister has no illusion that he can do whatever he wants.
We merely pretend, all European nations are corrupt in one way or the other. In the Nordic countries the main corruption is exploit of contacts, something just about everyone does. But the moment direct money handling becomes involved it's a big no-no.
