Of course we should. Russians elected their leaders, followed and cheered them for decades and supported most of their decisions including this war. Don’t get fooled into thinking Russians are just poor, innocent people send to war by their mad leader. It’s an underdeveloped, sick country that uses violence and terror to get what they want. They got what they deserved.
You take away their ability to harm others. In this case you destroy their ability to wage wars. You sanction the shit out of them so that they don’t have enough money to arm themselves and you destroy whatever military they have now. No one is proposing extermination, they just have to become harmless. When they are civilized enough to re-join the international community they are welcomed to do so.

Demonising a whole people like this is in itself wrong.
What is your supposed solution, then? How does one deal with tens of millions of people who are supposedly evil and wrong?
