    A cosmetics manufacturer alone? No.

    All western companies leaving however can make an economic hit that will benefit Ukraine.

    As for the Russians? They can revolt or do something, otherwise they suffer. Who cares about them.

      They suffer if they revolt too.

      Judging by your name, you’re an Aussie and I’ve got to say, disappointed in your complete writing off of the entire Russian population. How the fuck is some young girl working at Lush supporting Putin or deserving of suffering if they don’t revolt?

        Her taxes directly support the war. It’s not as easy as people are good and bad. Good people can be in bad situations. Sanctions are supposed to hurt all people. That’s how they work. It’s seen as a lesser evil, rather than a good. They are damaging for both sides.
