    Ever have a customer-facing job? Ever have some obnoxious jackass say “I’m never coming back again!” Do these people think they’re hurting me? Do they think others are impressed by their tantrum?

    I’m getting similar vibes here.

    Does Putin think he’s harming these people by throwing them out of his miserable authoritarian country? Does he think he looks like a strong, admirable leader?
