    They outrage is such a great example of western exceptionalism. The existence of western consumer businesses in the countries of the non-Aryan jungle is supposed to be an immense benefit to these places and their departure must necessarily be disastrous for them. Nowhere is the idea entertained that Russians are perfectly capable of creating their own shitty burger restaurants to replace those if the west.

      It’s like that 80s news footage of the first McDonald’s opening in Moscow where they’re like so-true ”finally those filthy commies get to enjoy our superior Western treats”

      Then they interview someone who says it wasn’t really worth it to stand in line and pay so much lenin-laugh

    Their burgers are trash compared to what they used to be - so fine - feed the Russians trash. About not keeping their word to leave Russia… does anyone here believe anything corporate has to say?

    Restaurant Brands International owns Burger King, Tim Hortons, Popeye’s Chicken, and Firehouse Subs

    Fuck RBI, they are lying war profiteers putting tax revenue in the hand of the Kremlin which it uses to fund it’s war of genocide in Ukraine. Do not eat in any of their restaurants
