    There’s an easy way to end this war: either kill Putin or have Putin resign.

          Literally not a fallacy, your reasoning hinges on Great Man Theory. The two most popular parties (the second being the communist party) both mainly support the war and the assassination of a sitting President would not, in fact, make the country more dove-ish. It’s a cartoon view of the conflict that the war spawned from Putin’s brain and is his personal pet project that he is subjecting the rest of Russia to.

          Bot.

          Not literally but if somebody programmed the Lib-O-Matic 3000 it would be indistinguishable.

      This is magical thinking. “If the enemy were to simply disappear, everything would be fixed.”

      You have to engage with the reality of the situation.

      Holy shit I literally just made a comment saying maybe libs would move on from this branded catchphrase and then I scroll down one co.ment and here you are.

      Serves me right for thinking libs would ever learn to interact with reality.

      That’s easy to say, I don’t think either of those things is easy to do.
