What’s your source on the sanctions doing nothing to make the war harder for Russia?

I’m asking because how on earth can you claim that? I’m close to the ecosystem involved and the sanctions work incredibly well. They’re not sufficient and there are bypasses but that doesn’t mean they don’t work.

They work incredibly well for drawing nigh the end of dollar as the reserve currency, and nothing else. More and more countries are divesting of it, because it's used as a political weapon.
Sanctions aren’t only USD based and you’re not providing any evidence for your claims.
