A gotcha that I think's lurking here is that there's no opportunity to appeal the classifications you're bucketed into. Meaning that even if you give 'it' incorrect data, the way you get bucketed could still have a

I think some other responders have touched lightly on this but I feel it should be explicitly said that sometimes engaging in conversation is not actually what the other party is doing, even though it might look like it. Sometimes they are

Russia has more than enough interest in provoking the war themselves given they did it twice already in crimea and donbas. As well as provoking the mobilization of Azov and building their reputation, given the latter invasion. Though Azov s
