But you are not really against it either. Because if you were, you would not be more concerned about the comfort of russian civilians including their ability to play
online poker, while their army are conducting war crimes in Ukraine, than you are about finding ways to defeat Russia and liberate Ukraine.
I just think that some companies leaving Russia is not going to have the impact you're expecting.
As I said already, its not going to decide the outcome of the war in itself, but its a contribution.
It's only going to suck for russian civilians, but the war is still happening. The war is been there for a year.
Yes and thats partly because, there are far to many countries (including
brazil), who have decided to not take a stance against Russia and thereby in essense accept, what Russia is doing.
And there is another thing: the russian market is huge, so most companies are not willing to leave Russia, because the will lose an important market. At the end of the day it's all about money.
Wrong. The vast majority of western / international companies have already left Russia including for instance all the car manufacturers. As a result car sales are down almost 80%, and local car production has almost stopped.
So this attempt of boycott is useless and it's only going to harm the civilians and the companies,
No its anything but useless. And its fine, that the russian population suffer. They need to suffer, until they wake up and stop supporting or passively accepting their current regime. The russian population is a big part of the problem. They are not innocent victims to some aliens from space, who have taken over their country.
