It's okay, just have some of your leader's special tea, it will fix everything for you, and for all of us.
How is this possible under such a great leadership >

If it’s the gays, turn to page 58
If it’s the Jews, turn to page 82

Odd, this book only has 100 pages? >

It used to have 101 pages though, but Putin tore the last one out >

Which is completely unrelated to the rumors about toilet paper shortage >

No need for toilet paper. Just slip down stairs and let poop on trousers. This glorious way. >

Hahaha brilliant >


President Vladimir Putin said on Tuesday that there were shortages of some medicines in Russia and that prices had gone up, despite the country producing more of its own drugs.
While prescription drugs are exempt from Western sanctions imposed over the war in Ukraine, their delivery to Russia has been hit by transport, insurance and customs hurdles caused by the war and other restrictive measures, industry figures say. >

Why did he even say this? He cannot even do the classic "our sick are dying because of the West", because he would admit that the sanctions do work. (as presented in this nice presentation Business Retreats and Sanctions Are
Crippling the Russian Economy)
Someone care to give their best bet? >

It's the usual "our enemy is strong and powerful and we must all be united (behind me) to survive, also the enemy is weak and pathetic and we're much stronger (thanks to me)", "we must attack unprovoked and invade, because the enemy is attacking us to invade us".
This is part of his "the west is attacking you the people and i'm defending you" rethoric. >


"we must attack unprovoked and invade, because the enemy is attacking us to invade us".

This threw my mind into a loop lmao >

"Preemptive self defense" is how one person from state media put it. The amount of double think required... >

If the leader of a totalitarian country is admitting to problems, then they must be so big that they're impossible to conceal. >

If Putin admits that “some” medicines are in “short supply” it means they have been completely out of a lot of medication for months. >

The next step is denying medicines ever existed. You mention the word “medicine” and next thing you know is you are falling off a window. >

I think the next step is actually that lack of medicine isn't causing any issues and they never needed the stupid western medicine in the first place, it probably causes gay. Then we go to your thing. But I don't really know, this algorithm is confusing. >

This man russians >

I hope its only medicines Putin needs. >

Maybe there's a shortage because he took all the medicine for himself. >

Ship them some rectal cream. >

They will need a lot to get rid of Putin. >

Which translates to we ain't got shit. >

That’s just completely evil. You’re advocating for bombing hospitals and schools, killing innocent people. Children in schools never had a say in who the leader of their country is, and they shouldn’t be punished for it when it’s out of their control >

It doesn’t matter if that would stop Russia. We shouldn’t become the bad guys just to accomplish our own goals. If we become just as bad as the enemy someone else will view us as the enemy next >

So I should sit here, read how my friends die or some random Ukrainians die, or wait till Russian missile crap will fall on my head during another Russian attack, but life of regular Russian should keep going as it was... "We are the good guys, we should suffer".
At this point of a war, after all they did to us, i literally want them to experience the same, as cruise missile with 900 kg of explosive in the middle of the day right into their houses, for example, or wake up from in the middle of the night from an explosion on the next street. >

No, we shouldn’t just sit around. Say Ukraine does get cruise missiles - great, use em to destroy Russia’s military infrastructure and prevent them from launching more missiles at Ukraine. Yes, what Russia’s doing is absolutely abhorrent, and nobody should be subject to that kind of terror. That includes Russian people. 
The reason that there’s a very clear-cut good/evil dynamic in this war is that Ukraine has been complying with international law and all of the other institutions that hold the world together. What do you think is gonna happen if Ukraine starts bombing maternity wards and kindergartens like Russia’s doing? They’re gonna be seen in exactly the same light as Russia currently is, and international support will dry up quickly.
Please stop advocating for war crimes, my friend. I understand your anger, I really do, but this isn’t the way. >

American pharmacies are short on some medicines. 
I’m guessing if Putin’s saying it on TV though, that the problem is a lot worse than he’s making it out. >

Went to a check up recently and they asked if I needed Tylenol and said I needed a script because pharmacies were running low. >

Well we are in the middle of flu/COVID season. But things are probably far worse in Russia given the sanctions and economic downturn. You know a situation is bad in authoritarian country when the government actually has to publicly address the issue rather than cover it up like they normally do. This suggests that the problem is so bad that they know the public won't believe any claims about there being no problem. So instead they'll blame the pharmaceutical industry and the regional governors cause the Tsar is never wrong. >

I've been referring to it as FLOVID. lol >

The Florida man’s Covid? >

I hear in Florida they pretend it doesn’t exist. The mindset is if they pretend it doesn’t exist it isn’t really there. >

Some common ground, for completely different reasons. >

Putin Khan should not be waging an aggressive war. >

I feel bad for the individual Russian people but I love what this Ukraine situation has done to Russia as a nation. Somehow Putin managed to fuck up even worse than we did with Iraq. >

Difference is that the US completed its stated objective of toppling Saddam's regime (same goes with the Taliban in Afghanistan).
What the US failed at is nation building which frankly speaking is very hard to achieve.
I think only Japan andnGermany counts as a modern day case study of a successful nation building (under occupation) and that was relatively easy since both countries were far more "developed" than Iraq and Afghanistan was.
Russia is simply embarassimg since before the Ukraine invasion, they were considered 2nd best and "near peer" in terms of their armed forces. >

It's interesting how the US, UK, and France succeeded wildly in nation building with Germany in the late 1940s.  I wonder what the difference is between now and then. >

The difference in comparison to Iraq and Afghanistan?  A lot.
Germany (and Japan) had an established national identity which was recognized by the populace throughout their borders.  Iraq and Afghanistan did not; they're a result of foreign powers haphazardly clumping together a bunch of different peoples into largely arbitrary borders, and have never been a fully cohesive nation with full unity within their own borders (at least within modern times).  Major difference trying to nation build when the populace isn't fully on board with even being a unified nation under the same leadership, much less when they already with good reason resent your prior historical interference.  
There was also the shadow of the USSR looming over both Germany and Japan.  Germany itself obviously already had half of itself left within Soviet control, and Japan still to this day is in dispute over control of the Kuril Islands (and many have forgotten that Soviet declaration of war and imminent invasion was itself as or more important to Imperial Japan's capitulation as nukes).  Lot easier to get people to work with you when they're fully aware there's a much worse alternative if you pull out and leave them on their own. >

In addition to that both countries also had heavily industrialized economies prior to WWII, and basically they needed to go through some hard years during rebuilding but with the investment poured in through the Marshall Plan, both experienced economic "miracles" and their economies rebounded massively. >

[You begin to play the world's smallest violin.] >

You could die, but It’s a risk he’s willing to take >

If Putin admits "it's a little" then it is a lot. >

Damn that sucks. You should have stocked up before deciding to invade another country you dipshit. >

"If only there was something Putin could do to prevent such a horrible horrible thing from happening to his country!"
"Well actually, he only needs to withdr.."
"IF ONLY THERE WAS *SOMETHING*!" >

I mean, he tried nothing and it didn't work, he's a dictator, not a miracle worker! >

A lot of countries had this problem recently but it could be much worse in Russia or it's propaganda that blames the "bad bad west" for the lack of medication. Either way, fuck Russia and their war >

So it might be true, or it might be Russian propaganda, but there is no way its anti-Russian propaganda. >

They’ve been out of chill pills since 2014. >

It's okay, real strong Russian men who don't even average 70 years of life expectancy don't need those pussy western medicines /s >

Tough shit, asshole. >

The real crisis is when vodka runs low >

I thought that is what he meant by medicine. >

and after too much vodka the pee-pee not that strong, need the blue pill. >

We are now entering the find out stage. >



This guy does not care about the general population. He doesn't even know what type of drugs are really missing. Drugs for Parkinson are the one in really shortfall.


The other problem is that drugs are available from China but no one in Russia what to use medicine that comes from China. Pharmacies here have been avoiding the Chinese markets since years ago.


No sanctions yet on medicine,so I can't explain this phenomenal. We are importing goods from Poland, Germany and The Netherlands but somehow we can't import medicine from these countries.if someone is using this as a way to cause a dissatisfaction among the population then I am in for it. Maybe we will be brave enough to face the stormtroopers. >

Appreciate your perspective.  You should post more. >

Who’s fault is that, asshole? >

This war would be over within the week if Russians were up to speed with what the rest of the world knows.  Most of why this war is still a thing is because somehow he's convinced most Russians that somehow the West is the fault of their inconveniences.  When enough Russian families can no longer put food on the table, public opinion in Russia of Putin will change rapidly. >

Judging by the glamorous performance we're witnessing from the mighty Russian army the war would've also been over in a matter of days if nuclear weapons weren't a thing. >

Russians need to revolt and until they stand up for themselves this authoritarian douchebag will always be one decision away from ending the world as we know it. >

This douchebag destroyed Russian political system to a point when there’s no (known) alternative. You overthrow this regime then what? Russians recall the last decade of XX century and what happened after the collapse of the USSR. Putin is the product of that time since there was a huge demand for an “order”. Now a lot of people realize that this train is back on the same tracks and when this regime falls there’s a new period of chaos and the later it happens the more chaotic things will become. That’s lose-lose for Russia after 2011 with too few people ready to cut the losses >

Surely they are not short on drugs >

No viagras for Putin >

And that's your fault stupid >

Pull out of Ukraine and maybe you’ll get some more. >

Stop the war >

Wanna buy some?  That’ll be one stop the war and give back all the Ukrainian territory you stole and publicly apologize to Zelenskyy and shake his hand and suck his duck. Otherwise, die. >

What's the duck ever done to you to deserve that? >

Why are you just assuming the duck wouldn’t like
It? >

From putin? >

The humility of Putin sucking on my duck would make a great photo for a postcard. >

Did Putin mean poison?  That would make more sense since I’m sure his pharmacy at his retreat is stocked! >

And whose fault is that, Vlad? >

I am sorry for the innocent people in Russia, but Putin can drop dead. >

To be honest we are short on some medications in America >

Sanctions will do that you. >

Putin's alive? 
Huh 🤔🤔 >

He most likely created this problem and is whining about it.
​
Classic >

…. So go to the front and get treated by Ukrainian medics? >

I have an idea. Just walk out of Ukraine. >

He took all the xanax didn't he >

My understanding of Russian medical kits is they only need consist of Tampons. It's enough to go to war with, so what else do they need >

Wait until he finds out about all the shit their army is missing from people skimming off the top. >

Ship them some rectal cream >

But they're good for novichok >

Here’s a little bit of your own medicine. Enjoy!
Literally >

No doubt that India’s massive pharmaceutical industry will unfortunately come to the rescue >

OMG is he expecting humanitarian aid now, after trying to annihilate an entire country in the most evil, sadistic ways? But we would give it to him if we could be assured it would be used legitimately. >

доктор мoм (doctor mom) throat drops are some of the best I’ve tried. >

‘Like my medications.’ >

Sounds like a Putin problem >

Damn Russia population is going drop fast >

Oh no anyways >

"Some" >

Guess he will mobilize the sick after he runs out of convicts… >

Like “chill pill”! >

Russian Pharmacy? Do they mean the liquor store? >

At the beginning of the pandemic Lukashenko said that covid can be cured with vodka and sauna. >

Remember how Russian trolls have been saying the egg shortage in Britain was a sign of collapse due to supporting Ukraine rather than bird flu and Brexit or the Russian propaganda video showing people in Europe celebrate Christmas in the dark without enough food to eat?
Wonder how they'll spin that Russia being low on medicine is a sign of strength. >

Finally, good news from Russia! >

Maybe short on some of Putin's medicines... >

I wonder whose fault that is. >

Arghh this boiling water I have put my foot in is… boiling hot >

If he says that there is a shortage on a few medicines. Then wat he actually says is that they don't have any medicines at all. >

Maybe that’s why he keeps killing his people in an illegal war.  ‘Less people, more medicine…’ clever Pootin >

Please read:  Russia has no medicine. >

Stop attacking another country then. >

Maybe all the medicine is in Kiev. They’re just trying to get it 😆 >

They're out of medicine entirely aren't they? >

Same as in the west... none for you! Go cry to Modi. Next story please... >

Is fine. True Patriots love for the motherland will sustain health. Medicine is for western weakling who wear shirt whilst on horse. >

It’s almost like he started an unnecessary war and got a few hundred thousand of his people killed and/or injured and it has ran the medicinal supply low. 
Almost. >

Or his cancer meds have been compromised in hopes it will finish him off >

We could probably take up a collection and send him some cyanide pills if they're out of them. >

Good. Russians need to feel the pinch for their slaughter, rape, and torture of Ukrainians (and others in the past). 
I wish them the absolute worst and will oppose any aid being sent by my country if they end up in a bad (worse) place. >

That'll happen when you invade another country. >

Eat a potato instead or maybe try not invading your neighbor >

Maybe if Putin didn’t start meaningless wars and burn bridges with the western world they would be able to easily trade for said medicines 🤷🏻‍♂️ >

well the good thing is, Russians won't need to stock pile Viagra.....because they are going to run out of men soon. >

If only there were a way to quickly resolve all of Russia’s shortage issues… >

Shouldn’t be invading other countries. World class miscalculation. >

He's in the top ten of worst leaders in history. >

Well has he tried, idk, pulling troops out of Ukraine? >

The Russian citizens have my sympathy and empathy. They're brainwashed subjects of an authoritarian regime than actively hates them. They've never really had a chance experience anything else than corruption. 
That said... >

If that’s his way to make me forget he’s committed so many war crimes it’s not working. >

Yeah that can happen when you GO TO WAR >

Probably cause he has all the good stuff which is keeping him alive >

Pull out, moron. >

That sounds like a "you" problem. >

Sucks to suck.
So, why do you think the reason might be Vladimir ?    Lol, he has what he needs, fuck the surfs…
Life is pain for everyone on this planet, their rulers overachieve SO hard. >

If only they were not murdering citizens in another country for for Putin's Vainglory... >

Russians need to revolt now or generations are going to be doomed. >

Hopefully they are short on bowel cancer medicine >

moments later
Putin has announced the wonder cure all drug that will rival western medicine. >

Does anybody else hear a violin? >

Aren't food and medicines exempt  from sanctions? >

It must be bad if Putin is mentioning it >

i believe this a worldwide issue. i know for sure it’s happening in australia. >

yes. also here in Europe >

The Russian government can only provide hard to swallow pills to its people now. >

Out of Krokodil already? >

No medicine treats narcissistic psychopathy, Putin >

Did he explain how it’s the “west’s” fault? That’s my favorite part of story telling time >

If they backed out of Ukraine, humanitarian aid would definitely be on the table.  I imagine it still is even so. >

Medication, baby formula, hospital supplies were never sanctioned. It’s why Nestle can still ship baby formula without prosecution. >

Of he's saying it now, it's already bad.
Stop invading.
Rest of world: Do not underestimate russias ability to withstand suffering.  It's literally how they win wars. >

Bit of a cliché, but “do not underestimate Putin’s ability to let Russians suffer if he can avoid ending up like Gadafi “ >

Can’t they just go to some of the kids russia knew in high school? >

Not his of course >

He can't find his incontinence medicine anymore? >

Sucks to suck >

Just have to ask for humanitarian aid Putin. >

Then stop being a prick. >

I see Putin still needs to shill reasons as to why the average Russian needs to pay more for sugar pills that his pharma oligarch friends are manufacturing domestically after stealing all the legitimate medicine for themselves. >

"Shut up and die"
- Putin >

They were sort of warned things like that could happen if they proceeded with the invasion. 🤷‍♂️ >

On the other hand, they lead the world's supply in copium and hopium. Can't be the best at everything! >

If Putin is admitting it then most of Russias medications are just baby laxatives now, which is more than their baby laxatives can claim. >

Pharmaceuticals are exempt from sanctions? WTF the country that would like to nuke the west deserves nothing. Let themake their own drugs, if they're able. >

Can always just use Russian Traditional Medicine and make a nice pot of polonium tea. >

And what is Putin planning to do with all the injured soldiers that will come home?! Repeat in history? Get rid of them quietly…. What clusterfuck! >

Oh no... anyway >

Hope they do a better job of manufacturing other Rx drugs than they did with their useless Covid vaccines. >

Probably pretty much the way things are there every day...😕 >

It's going to get worse >

They'll be far less Russians needing medicine shortly. >

Good. You reap what you sow. >

A shortage in russia?? Can't be true >

Did you check bathroom in one of those 100 million boats >

“We will conquer Ukraine in 3 days.” >

“What if we just invade Ukraine extra hard and take there medical supplies?” -4D Chess Master Putin >

Ukrainian civilians are dead because of putins evil and now he’s killing russian civilians. He can stop his butchers anytime he wants, he simply doesn’t want to. >

It's almost as if there are consequences to....... actions.....
🤔...so weird..... >

It’s a side effect from being an asshole! >

They are totally out of butt-hurt cream for one. >

Tell Putin, that Russia only needs one medicine, for all medical conditions: Fentanyl...It Cures Whatever Ails You, Permanently. >

You mean Russian society isn't a utopia?! >

What is it like living in Russia right now with all of these sanctions? >

As much as I would like to bash on Putin.. Many countries are experiencing the same issues >

Boohoo >

I wonder what the stock looks like in Ukrainian pharmacies right now >

Normally a Country would just produce more medicine as supply decreases, instead Putin is trying his best to lower the demand... >

It's surprising that they've only ran out now. Russians had an ever increasing need for copium. >

Same in the US. Goodluck finding adderall >

Hopefully they are short on the meds keeping him alive. >

I hope it's the ones that are making him so crazy. >

😱🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 >

Well who's fault is that dipshit! >

so are Canadian and American pharmacies >

Aw boohoo >

Nothing that vodka couldn't fix. >

Its the nazi vampires faults >

New clear days >

Here's a packet of 16$ aspirin. >

Just start handing out vodka and offer thoughts and prayers. >

Tell him we’ll send aid and medicine if you leave Ukraine >

Putin has always been short on brains period! >

I guess it sucks to be an average Russian citizen right now. >

Russia is just a negatively growing country. >

Too bad, so sad. >

Shouldn't have invaded another country then. >

Searching for his own poison? >

If only there was some way to resolve this problem. >

Join the crowd >

Tampons, for one. >

I'm sure they'll trade some oil to India to restock. >

Why is putin admitting russia isn't heaven on earth? What's with the narrative change? >

I don't care... >

Oh well...anyway... >

I mean..After the war crimes you did to Ukraine.  You brought this upon yourself. 
Get fucked Putin.
Hope Russian citizens who realize the BS Putin is doing can last long enough until Putin is "removed". >

Yo same here in the good ol USA >

He should just do what he always does: go and yell at the minister in charge of medicines, problem solved. >

Well time to use tampons >

Probably medicine that his daughters need because there is no way he would express emotion, especially empathy; toward anyone that isn't in his immediate family. >

It’s almost like the world interconnected and we all rely on each other for various needs. Who would have thunk that there would be consequences of being a d-bag? >

he's fine with killing women and children in an unprovoked war, as well at 110k of his own soldiers, but he pretends to somehow care if people get their meds. I just don't get this guy at all >

Lets get them some drugs. >

Yeah meth!!! >

Even medications are having a hard time with not falling out of windows these days, eh. >

Probably really bad if they are admitting something. >

oh look, it's the consequence of my actions >

“Some of you may die, this is a sacrifice I’m willing to make” >

Has anyone seen my tiny violin? You won’t believe this, but I seem to have misplaced it. >

The world's smallest violin just played in putins ears. Like quit bitching and do something about it >

Well there is no shortage of evil dictators in Russia so I think that evens things out. >

Vlad the I’mPaler. Die already you piece of shit. >

Still better than all the Ukrainian pharmacies that got bombed. >

I mean, I can't get DM cough syrup or childrens tylenol here in Canada, how big a problem are we talking here? >

Boo f**king hoo. >

This is really a wired turn of events. I wonder what the rationale for being this candid is. >

At least he admits something >

All the tampons have been used to plug wounds. >

Boo fucking hoo, shithead >

Let me guess, he needs more Viagra. >

Viagra is useless to Putin. Putin is as impotent as his military. >

You know what would be funny? If the US sent medical aide to Russia. Talk about psychological warfare. >

The price you pay for being a global pariah.  ¯_(ツ)_/¯ >

Oh no poor us >

They wouldn’t be if you hadn’t started a war and invaded an innocent country. Sucks to suck asshole. >

Ask China for tylenols >

Almost like someone doesn't want to be held accountable for their actions. >

Good.
Now Russian scum can ration their insulin like us. >

Buy from China like everyone else does. >

I bet his spies still have plenty of Polonium and other deadly poisons. Maybe he shouldn’t have started an unwinnable war. Or been a lying, thieving scumbag who also actually hates Russia and decent Russians. >

They should ideally be short on arms, not medicine. Can’t imagine that’ll do much good for the people. >

Good. Get out if Ukraine. >

How sad for the rissian people that I'm happy about this...it may be cause for an earlier end to this war... >

In Putins that means it's fucking empty >

Time for Russians to rise up against their government. >

Well stop being a piece of shit and maybe people wouldn’t want to watch you die in your own fecal
Matter. >

Awwwwww sucks to suck.. >

Mr. Putin maybe if you weren’t crippling people in Ukraine. And wounding your own people. Which has led to a mass exodus of of people important to your society. There might not be a shortage. >

Ask for N. Korea finnest/assistance >

Oh well. Anyway.. >

Oh well >

So are we gonna send supplies to russia too. >

Short on what? like fucking valium they need to take instead of invading other countries? That shortage lasts for last 400 years,bring back Mongols to keep them in check >

👍Cool >

What did you think was going to happen when you shut yourself out from the world? 
Aren't you friends with North Korea? Shouldn't you have predicted this would happen? >

Good. Let them all die >

😥 >

That sounds like something not starting wars would fix. >

I would be a horrible president. 
I would’ve just said “Fuck you” so long ago with a big old hand heart next to it. >

The price you pay for a training exercise, amirite? >

Quite the brain scratcher, wonder how it happened >

Good, hold the line, make putin crumble, he escalated things to war, he should probably be made to suffer for it and letting the people turn against him is a good start. >

Pssst…. It’s happening.. >

Well, stop the war then. >

My God! Isn't there some way we can all chip in and send them a container ship full of Invectomicin?? >

If we all would work together to help each other out with are problems this wouldn’t happen >

So are Canadian ones. What’s your point? >

Should've thought of this before you started invading people's countries and destroying their hospitals! >

Oh yeah? I heard Ukraine was low on electricity >

Ok? Tf he want us to do about it >

Oh no ! Anyways… >

Kickstart a toy which is "Simon Says" but Putin branded. >

Shouldn’t start a war you can’t afford >

Well, Putin really needs a dose of reality. >

Time for the baltics to break out the ole’ plague cow catapults >

U fucking criminal you killing your own ppl cose of your ego !! >

Thanks for sharing.  Have fun with that. >
