they wuoldn't hand him over

cuz thats a sign to each other that they're weak, and could just be next the next time the US would make demands

i think you way overestimate their allegience to putin

you can only sanction the russians so much

its not allegiance to putin at all

But if 10 people are all willing to sell the otehr 9 out

they'd have no trust to work togetehr

he is really popular

so the first one to become the "leader" would execute the other 9 cuz they can't be trusted anymore

cuz they sold Putin out too

its possible

i cant really say one way or the other

i would like to think the russian people would come into play at some point, but cant really count on them doing much

awww yes the purge of leadership

well if they get caught, he likely will be brought up on some international charges... at least i would think? i am not really sure how that would work

but this is all just supposing that there is something there

i dont really think there is

i think the groups posting the ads are the most they will come up with

if they got caught, Russia would get sanctions, which they then dodge with a 3rd party

And the same masses that believe the establishment from "non-russia" countries would be content cuz Muh russia gotting dem sanctions!

which... anyone can buy ads

international charges are useless

im not sure i follow that last line Doc

trying to

Russia gets sanctions that don't actually work

the West citizens will be happy cuz Russia is being "punished"

No war, Neither side ultimately loses

i see what you mean now ok

Its a very old game played in the modern world

agreed

you pretend to punish them, and they just go "ow, noooo stop, we're the bad"

and you secretly high-five under the table

so if there was meddeling, i WOULD like to see something more than just sanctions. i agree they are just a lip service type punishment

but what would be the proper punishment

putin in jail would be one to me

but thats just one thing

there isn't really one, I'd guess the best punishment would be a formal apology and monetary payment made

I died a little bit inside when I heard use a Swiss army knife to install computer components

Russia paying the US a few billions

And everyone moves on

meh thats another non punishment punishment though

nah, you actually benefit that way

cuz its a one-way benefit

nah nothing benifits me lol

well the US state would get it, and they'd give it to mexicans 😛

it would just go to the def budget
