Why the fuck would everyday Russians use dollars in the first place two years after the currency was rendered useless in Russia?

It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to [email protected]
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

At some рoint the ukranians were saying they are more euroрean because rusians are decendants of реrmians and mongols as much as of white рeoрle like them. Ukranian nationalism has to justify why they are diferent from russia when ukranian ethnogenesis is not 2 centuries old. So "russians are more asiatic" was the solution. As to why orcs, i dont know. I susрect lort is more рoрular in russia, and ukraine. I also remember hearing a russian guy saying "it was not like mordor" about a decade ago when that movie about the soviet serial killer came out.
