    Its almost like all these sanctions are meant to make stern headlines instead of having any real crippling effect lol. Even the sanctions on oligarchs have loopholes

    Cutting off from swift is no small measure

    It's likely to cause carnage

    "always" isn't accurate; the data in the polls you linked are from 2015, one year after Russia's annexation of Crimea, which saw Ukrainian's support for Russia dwindle drastically. However, prior to the annexation, Ukraine-Russia relations were much closer. Study I linked earlier from 2011:

    look it's like ur just intentionally missing my point I'm pretty sure we agree on almost everything except a few specifics

    I meant that US corruption affects US citizens negatively, but to a lesser degree than Russian corruption affects Russian citizens. US citizens going "we got it worse" sounds dumb and is frankly pretty privileged and ignorant, no? I think we agree on this.

    I think you mean specifically financial corruption while he looks at it broader, but could be wrong

    0 chance gov officials and oligarchs didn't know that sanctions being placed on them was a real possibility and didn't take the necessary precautions to move assets to safe havens in advance
