You've set the tone calling an economic response to a military aggression stupid. I say evil must be fought, and sure thing it is a costly affair. It was stupid not to see where it was going after 2008 Georgia invasion: continuing to trade with Russia and helping it get stronger, so now the cost is much higher. Remember Sudetes. Global economy is all about geopolitics.

You clearly have no idea of the historic background of this conflict. It's all out there, study it before insulting me.

You clearly justify killing and jailing political opponents and journalists, amending constitution and falsifying elections to stay in power forever, controlling all media to brainwash citizens into hating "external enemies" instead of close circle of gangsters who privatized the country. This is the "historic background".

You are either a kremlin bot or a useful fool pedalling their agenda.

I was going to expand on the discussion but I think it's maybe but just to say that I find there is both truth and value in both understandings, and there probably are many insights that go unrealized in a historical perspective.
