    Why is that question possible?

    “that’s unrelated to Putin and his direct actions”, if not related, why? Why asking about assassinated political leader?

      I meant to say whatever the West leaders are doing does not pertain to the question. The question is not about them.

        Those kind of questions can not be made without context, it is not a game of words without consequences. If it is a game, just to waste time posting in this or any social network, let’s stop here.

        It is about a real person, who is a leader, whose murder would spark grave consequences. And that leader actions, like taking the decision of going to war or not, are related to decisions made by other leaders. Right now there is a campaign demonizing that leader, and that campaign normalizes ideas mirrored by that kind of questions. There lots of memes, jokes and things like that asking for Putin’s dead.

        If i asked, what would happen if Donald Trump were assassinated? Or Biden, or Xi Jing Pin, Erdogan, etc? At this moment when all media are strugling to influence public opinion? It won’t be a futile harmless game.

        It pertains to the whole picture. IMHO.

          The question is purely speculative. Try swapping Putin for any western leader and then answer the actual question if it helps.

          I can speculate easily what will happen if Biden is assassinated because the probability of anything is not zero. The VP will take his place and so on.

            So, your position as i understand it: it is just words.

            My position: words related to real world are not just words, they have meaning, purpose, intention and consequences.

            Edit: if USA president is assassinated VP takes the place, is that all what would happen? ASSASSINATED, not by sickness or accident🤔.
