Quoting: Anonymous Coward 72530568 /s The more the west "punishes Russia" the more western people feel it. I'm so mixed on this whole thing. While I relish seeing Libtards and anyone else who supports this false narrative and these evil regimes (Biden admin, other deep state/NWO govts) go without, I also feel bad for the innocents who had nothing to do with this that are suffering. I think the sanctions against Russia and the horrible way Russian citizens are being viewed/treated by the world is disgusting. Should not be happening and classified as crimes against humanity. They have nothing to do with these banker/elite feuds- why should they be punished? It's all a giant clusterfuck. |

User ID: 80855651 03/15/2022 11:28 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | From the article Quoting: Mithradates “We don’t get any more deliveries. (…) It’s now rationed so that only two liters of oil can be sold per household.” Its going to be an interesting summer "A similar shortage could follow for corn: Ukraine is the world’s fourth largest exporter of the yellow vegetable. No new deliveries are currently coming from the Ukrainian ports – it is completely unclear when this will be the case again. According to information from the company Ukr-AgroConsult, 500,000 tons of wheat and 1.7 million tons of corn are currently stored in the country. Sunflower oil, where Ukraine is the world’s largest producer and exporter, is also threatened by further massive shortages and price increases" We have seen some odd shortages nothing major but just in case we have stocked up on some staples. kink [link to then24.com (secure)] Were in north america fuck the rest of the world |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 82483318 Russia 03/15/2022 11:30 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Empty shelves in German supermarkets 14 mar 2022 4:25 p.m In some places it was already evident over the weekend: Sunflower oil and wheat flour are hard to come by. The oil is already completely sold out at the discounter Lidl, and Aldi Süd is rationing cooking oil to two liters per household. Cheap flour is becoming scarce at Edeka. Toilet paper is also increasingly being hoarded. The effects of the war in Ukraine and the sanctions can already be observed in German supermarkets and discounters. Sunflower and rapeseed oil are becoming scarce at Aldi, Rewe, Edeka and other food retailers, like the Focus reported. In Berlin, the corresponding shelves at Edeka or Lidl were already emptied on Saturday. Aldi has already reacted and limited the amount of cooking oil sold per household. A saleswoman said to a customer in the Aldi market in Fürstenfeldbruck, Bavaria: “We don’t get any more deliveries. (…) It’s now rationed so that only two liters of oil can be sold per household.” There are several reasons for this: In addition to a poor harvest last year and supply chains destroyed by corona measures such as lockdowns, rising production costs for cooking oil are also responsible for the lower production volume. Now comes the war in Ukraine. The country is the largest producer of sunflower oil in the world. Russia follows in second place. In addition, Russia is the world’s largest exporter of wheat, with Ukraine in third place. German consumers can now also observe this in retail: Cheap wheat flour is hard to come by at the beginning of the week. A similar shortage could follow for corn: Ukraine is the world’s fourth largest exporter of the yellow vegetable. No new deliveries are currently coming from the Ukrainian ports – it is completely unclear when this will be the case again. According to information from the company Ukr-AgroConsult, 500,000 tons of wheat and 1.7 million tons of corn are currently stored in the country. Sunflower oil, where Ukraine is the world’s largest producer and exporter, is also threatened by further massive shortages and price increases. Momme Matthiesen, Managing Director of the Association of the Oilseed Processing Industry (OVID), takes a similar view. In principle, security of supply in Germany is not in danger. But there is also a rush for another product that is particularly popular in Germany: the current run on toilet paper is reminiscent of the first lockdown in the Corona crisis. On Monday, the shelves in some cities emptied clearly. |

Ukraine or Russia have nothing to do with this. Germany has shitloads of fields and farmers, its agriculture is strong and the machines are top level world class - but they all seed rape (the plant) to gather its oil for fuel for years now as that makes the farmers a little more money. It's all planned. If the soil was used for wheat and other grains, Germany could feed half of Europe due its efficiency alone - cleaner, healthier and at much better quality than whatever Ukraine could come up with. Ukraine bread basket of whatever my ass! More than half of Ukraine's soil is still polluted from Chernobyl!! |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 82479060 Germany 03/15/2022 11:52 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | As for actual shortages - there are none. The current shortages are self induced due to media driving people CRAZY! "No more oil! No more flour!" on the news 24/7. Guess what people do? Right, they run and buy oil and flour, hence the shortage. |
