#1 Somehow we seem to let Putin do what he pleases, not only invading what should have been his closest ally, but saber rattling, threatening escalation if he does not get his way, and otherwise behaving like a malevolent spoiled brat.
Why not give him a taste of his own medicine?
Not by going on a Russian killing spree or dping evo; tjoms. but by suggesting escalations of our own.
We don't want to harm Russian people, but we do think Russia should pay some at least symbolic price for its horrible behavior.
How about we destroy the Kremlin? We could warn everyone who lives near it that sooner or later it will disappear, so that they can move away until that happens.
Or maybe we could hint we decided we are fed up with the hateful Nazi regime in Cuba, and want to annex it.
We would use only modern drones to eliminate Nazis so innocent people would not be harmed.
After all if Putin can wreck a neighboring country most of whose inhabitants want nothing to do with him. wey should we help out the enslaved Cuban people get rid of their Nazi oppressors?
It would be a shame for all those ancient cars to get junked though. We don't have to mean any of these things, but why let Putin have all the fun of scaring everyone about escalation?
