cease all exports to russia maybe? idk? seems pretty simple to me but i'm just a dumb little idiot tired of watching my friends mourn the deaths of their people

That's gonna affect profits, so unfortunately not gonna happen

gotta love hypercapitalism. anything to make a paltry sum

That solves nothing. Much of what Russia receives is done via other countries like the UAE.

then what is your argument. because i don't have another way to interpret "ceasing all trade with russia does nothing when uae still trades with them"

I'd go after the fronts in Europe and shipping to "neutral" countries like the UAE. If journalists like those of The Insider can routinely uncover the shell companies, then so can the Western intelligence agencies.
