Putin is trying to fuck the West, anyone with more than 3 functioning neurons can see this plain truth. He’s trying to reverse the outcome of the Cold War, with dissolution of NATO and renovation of the Soviet Union (for starters). And idiot republican traitors are enabling it. Idiot right wingers in Europe, too. Fucking morons.
Spoiler alert: he also fire bombed those Paris train stations for the purpose of demonstrating to the russian people that the West is no better than russia.
He should be bayoneted up the ass ASAP.
One correction would be claiming that "Putin is trying to fuck the West". It buys into the propaganda that Russia isn't really a "western" nation.
They have an odd bit of propaganda that Russians are "Eurasians", which is just a way they validate and distinguish their history of colonialism from the rest of Europe.
In reality they've always treated their Asian minority population as second class citizens, utilizing them primarily as cannon fodder to expand their colonial holdings.
Putties gay af so I think he would enjoy that too much. Queen of Russia
I get how you mean, but no. russia should be so lucky. Sadly, no, he’s straight as a ruler in the junk drawer.
This ...
... and this ...
... do not combine well.
There are fucking morons here. Those who think that the pit their enemy is digging for them is the same old pit as 60 years ago are the biggest morons of all.
Nah, Putin, Aliyev, Saudis, all these work at eroding the very idea of some international order and justice and civilization and progress. They are obviously very successful.
