I am not necessarily a violent person, and I understand that civilized people shouldn't think this way, but I am waiting in hopes that he will either be removed to one of his personal dachas in a quiet top level coup, or that (here's the violent part) that someone in his close circle of "advisors" puts a bullet in his brain.
Same. I really do think there's an element of virtue ethics to wishing violent death on people, and that it does us no good.
But I've wanted him to die for years - even relatively dispassionately, but the level of damage being done by him personally is so enormous. (Pre-Ukraine, I was thinking of Chechnya, Brexit, Trump, the German elections, and how much energy was being spent on his bullshit when it could go on the climate crisis.) At this point, I am very uncivilised - supposedly he's obsessed with the video of how Gaddafi died, and terrified of going that way, and I hope he does.
