As I’ve said in the other thread, realistically it only diverts from hate towards their own government for failing to protect critical infrastructure, and onto Ukrainian people who went out of their way to ruin someone’s day. Realistically, the economic damage is like wasting 10 minutes of a few people who will drive to an empty station, find none, then go to another station. And maybe like an hour of site admins time to ban and clear those trolls out, which I’m pretty sure they already did. And then those annoyed few will open the news and see a written confession from those trolls that they will do absolutely anything to ruin any random russian’s day, just because, and cheers from clueless folk in the comments below. Do you think seeing this would rile those russians against Putin, or make them support him even more?

    I mean as a parallel situation, Iran closing the straight and raising gas prices for me certainly didn’t make me back Trump or dislike Iran more. I blame Trump for that. I think any reasonable person can see that a country who’s being invaded doing whatever they can to fuck with the invader is the invader’s fault. Maybe not everything will be totally effective but smaller/weaker nations have to get their shots in however they can.
