I understand why you can’t do this kind of thing, but honestly I feel like at this point we should just be shooting the Russian spokesman with one of those 40mm non lethal shotguns if they try to stand up in the UN and say a goddamned word. Just let them fall down on the ground in their fancy suit groaning, and invite them to come back any time they want to tell their military to stop killing civilians and go the fuck home, and in the meantime just chase them down the hallway with it until they leave the building where the ladies and gentlemen are supposed to converse productively about world affairs.
And yes I understand that the ICC is the right way to go about that, and that we’re specifically blocking them because WE don’t want to be held accountable for our own hilarious hypocrisy about our own atrocities. For the record, I am 100% on board for doing the same thing to Israel if they say a goddamned thing, or to the US spokesman if THEY try to say anything about humanitarian situations in the Middle East. Can that be an acceptable compromise? Or maybe we can just dump like a gallon of rotten tomato soup on the Russian spokeman’s head instead any time they open their mouth, so there’s no potential for injury but the point can still be put across?
The USSR had a shred of philosophical veneer. The kleptocratic petromafia slave “state “ that exists today is literally a nihilist barbarian horde. I like the sentiment and mental picture of your suggestions. Really speaks to the pointlessness of talking to these black hearted ghouls.
