87% of the world aren't sanctioning Russia. Are you saying that is evil?

You're an absolute donut of the highest order.

Measure sanctions by economic value rather than equating a sanction from the US with one from some.tiny impoverished African country that doesn't rven have a democratic government.

Do you accept that Russia has committed many hundreds and thousands of war crimes here?

Do you accept the referenda in the 4 territories was a sham? Copying in @peteblue @Joey66 for dodgy referenda expertise
 
By "don't work" I mean "they don't elicit compliance." This has been demonstrated empirically, and makes sense if you think about it. You told the leader what you would do, they decided to go ahead anyway, so you impose the sanctions (which harm both you and them) to make the next threat of sanctions credible.

It's a bit like telling your kid, "If you do 'x' I will ground you," they go and do it anyway, and you ground them. If you expect them not to go and do 'x' again, you're going to have to up the ante a bit on the punishment.
Thanks for the update. I agree looking at it this way.
