Extremism or rationality? There is no other logical course of action when the leader of the Free world and most powerful nuclear superpower reacts to your bombing of civilian targets with embarrassing and hilarious "Vladimir, STOP!" while simultaneously cutting supply, forbidding your victim from striking back and bullying them into capitulating to all of your demands unconditionally.

Mmm.

I think this just ignores that 30% of the west wants putinism.

Dealing with home grown far right religious white supremacy is difficult. Putin became very good at exporting this that billionaires in America think theyre on some moral crusadw.
