      How am I being an asshole? By pointing out that what you claim should happen hasn’t happened in the slightest?

      You made a claim. I’m just asking you to justify it.

        And all im doing is asking if you think that because it’s not fixed the problem straight away it’s not worth doing?

        Plenty of people have already explained how targeting Russias economy puts pressure on Putin.

          Yes, but no one has explained how the economy is harmed by harming individual Russians. If it’s not making a difference so far, how long do Russians who have nothing to do with the war suffer before we decide it’s a failed strategy? How long do Ukrainians suffer while we keep doing things that are not having an effect?
