your expectation is they will do what you want or be eliminated

More of your Russian lies, nobody ever said that

we all just want Russia to get along with its neighbors, but it can't / won't do that, because Russia is addicted to blood & plunder, not peace

so we'll just stop doing business with Russia and watch it shrink thru its own stupidity

I’m sorry you misunderstood my sentence “Why bother “reading people’s actions” when your expectation is they will do what you want or be eliminated?”

I was responding to your comment that the Pooty Pal you were responding to did not value “reading people’s actions.” My thought was that Russian tyrants and collaborators would not value the skill you mentioned because they would expect people to obey or else. The word “your” did not refer to you, but to the generic “your expectations” of tyrants and Putin collaborators.
