Bro. This is fucking hilarious.

Twitch banned the channel tho lmao.

The first stream was launched on September 17 by a user named russiangas1 and showed a kitchen where four gas burners were running on full blast for hours on end. A thermometer could be seen in front of the stove showing audiences how hot it was in the room and a clock in the background showed that the stream was not on a loop.

Russiangas1 added a caption to the video reading: “From Russia with Love!” and stated that he pays just €1.44 ($1.43) a month for all the gas he is burning.
One channel, russiangas2, is similarly running a gas stove around the clock while another channel, russianhotwater, is endlessly filling up a tub with hot water.

That's the playbook of the neoliberal. Offshoring of everything, consumerism, tax cuts, low interest rates, high government spending, slashing of regulations and worker rights, etc... These of course lead to high GDP growth figures for a few years or so before inequality and debt start weighing the economy down.

The UK of 2022 has very little industry for an economy of its size and a massive proportion of its GDP is generated by retail, real estate, sports, finance, entertainment, education, media, legal services, fashion, etc... Pretty much everything that doesn't involve actually designing and building stuff. This was caused by neoliberal policies adopted in the 1980s. The result is massive inequality, low growth and massive debt. Liz Truss will double down on the same policies. She will also launch a trade war against China and increase military spending. She will do all of these without Russian and Arab corruption money. The forecast for the British economy isn't rosy, to say the least.
