Come on, you understand what I mean.

I don't. I don't support what the Russian government is doing and I want to provide a little funding towards the endeavors of which I do not approve as possible.

An amount that is not ₽0 would appear to enter Russian coffers if I buy this product, and it is possible to provide "< not 0" by not buying it.

people are not their government

Which is why I wouldn't have a moral problem with buying this product if I knew for a fact the producers were cheating on their taxes.
