    This is a child’s thinking. A child wants the bully to get punched in the nose. An adult knows that this comes from insecurity. Bullies do not fear violence, they fear ridicule.

      And we could ridicule them pretty bad for getting a jet shot down by wandering into the wrong neighborhood.

      Fuck that. Russia doesn’t have a fear of ridicule. If they did, they would have given up over a year ago. The only good Russian soldiers are ex-soldiers and dead soldiers. If all bullies got punched in the nose, maybe they’d stop bullying. Ridiculing them just gives them an echo chamber with other bullies where they pool resources and team bully others.
