So wait I’m confused, is this celebrating two men using the wealth they’ve stolen from their citizens to enjoy a lavish dinner while many of their people suffer and die, or is it celebrating the other two men exemplifying frugality with their people’s money to enjoy a low cost snack?
I have this sinking feeling that it’s the former, where pro autocrat morons are wowed by the glitz and glamour of the Russian leader’s pilfered wealth and denigrating the US Secretary of State eating McDonald’s. “Bring back Peter III,” I bet they mumble during their wet dreams.
The issue is you arent aware that Putin and Kim actually treat their citizens better than the west. If you want oligarchs using pilfered wealth to enjoy luxury look no further than the west.
This isnt them illustrating “frugality,” this is a bastard child of ad placement and PR. The fact that you think wicked fuckers like this who rob people the world over have a frugal bone in their body shows their PR still clearly works on westerners…
If the thought of what they ate keeps you up at night, best I could find is that Putin treated Kim Jong Un to some regional food (he visited Far Eastern Federal District, so lots of sea food). That’s kinda what respectful diplomacy looks like.
When Blinken and Culeba eat McDonald’s puke, with the former probably dressed in a suit more expensive than the room they’re in, I’m not sure if I am to interpret that as the sort of a cheap trick people like you are supposed to buy, or an acknowledgement that there is no diplomacy going on there, just a master instructing his servant.

That is certainly a take. Not one adressing reality, but a take.
I wouldn’t call McDonald’s a lavish dinner :/
Its certainly overpriced. The burgers are practically microscopic.
There’s actually another picture above the one you’re talking about of Blinken! Hope that helps, it seems easy to miss.
