While the idea of a Twitter mob "fighting Putin" is wishful thinking on their part, I also don't think it's likely to exacerbate anything. They're already dropping bombs. Events on the ground (e.g. how well and how long the Ukrainians, like the Finns in the Winter War against the USSR, can hold off the inevitable) will have orders of magnitude more impact than anything happening on Twitter.
Decisions about SWIFT, etc. will be made based on the banks and intelligence agencies, not Twitter. I know it is dispiriting, but we have little to no influence here.
