At this point, the sanctions are doing phenomenal. For Russia, for China, and for BRICS that is... there's usually a bit of short-term pain, but in turn the rewards are a thousandfold.

I hope the west tries sanctioning some more (to those who can take it and then some at least, against China and Russia... maybe even India or Turkey as Russian oil-transit countries? 😂 Might hurt me some as well as someone living in an imperial core myself, but the results- the destruction of the imperial economic order, rapidly before our eyes- is just too beautiful, too inspiring all the same.

Reminds me, recently I was watching Scott Ritter talking on the effects of sanctions on Russia. They had been struggling with the destabilizing, corrupting influence of the oligarchs for so long, for instance. The west dealt with that, basically neutered the oligarchs with their targeted sanctions. 😂 They had been struggling to get domestic investments, with wealth flowing from Russia into the west- the west dealt with that too- suddenly Russia has plenty of capital with nowhere to go but to the people, developments are being built left and right (and not just in the MIC). 😂 NATO basically helped Putin cleanse out the rot the west had encouraged to fester during the years of shock therapy, and as they're the ones who did it (while showing the entire world their financial systems are not to be trusted) it didn't take much if any political capital for Russia to get things back into shape afterwards.
