2. This stuff can have an effect

Russia has a pop culture just like any other country, showing the Russian people that their president has made them pariahs can help put pressure on Putin.

Many sporting events are leaving Russia, their athletes are being banned. I hope this continues, Russia should not be part of the international community in any way.

Fire Saga might have a chance of winning now this year!
