Putin Effect

Unintentional reverse psychology, where threats made to get someone to obey you instead causes them to go against you.

Origin: Putin threatened to use military force & nuclear weapons against Finland & Sweden, to prevent them from applying for NATO membership. The two countries realized that they could not defend themselves against nukes & the entire Russian military if they stood alone, leading to them joining NATO.

Ergo threats meant to subdue these countries caused them to stand up against Russian imperialism.

-"I told my boyfriend that it was me or the dog, but instead of getting rid of the dog, he dumped ME!"
-"Well, that's the Putin effect for you."
