A honest question after the fall of the USSR is where would Russia be without Putin at all. Would it be a superpower? Would Moscow be like it is today, which is a great city?
Political judgement overall is anything but emotional judgement. I understand where you are coming from, but most people tend to always give shit to people who play many pivotal roles. If there was a person less strong than he in their position, then where would the Russians be?
Generally people constantly attack these politicians, and I am not fond of what they do either. But imagining myself in their shoes I cannot say one shouldn't bite or be very firm in their directions. Because then the country can fall apart.
Putin has overall, despite of being unethical, not started any wars, or perceived world destruction like Stalin. He wanted to be an emperor and to be left be. That's a better deal than what Stalin offered to humanity. Therefore, many Russians are fond of him. The standards aren't Western standards here.
Nobody speaks about the comedian jew Zelensky who has pocketed 20 billion or more from direct payouts of US Taxpayer free money. Zelensky literally is the most dangerous of them all. Because he is the little victim and evil Putin threw bombs on him because he was making labs on the literal shores of the border of Russia. I would throw bombs and napalm on him as well if he did that and I was in Putin's position, without hesitation. 10 months later they could have thrown some virus on the region via the biolabs and then people would be dead.
In regards to why we would even go there and do these things, that's still a mystery to me. I guess, someone in the vibes of Klaus Schwab gave a phonecall to his goonies and told them "Hey that's a nice day, let's go put some biolabs 10 miles from the Russian Border. That will certainly spark another war so our homeboy Zelensky can bring some money to us
OH and likely trigger some WW3 in the process". And then some other immoral worthless soul was like "Yes, definitely, let's go
".
Politics and corruption go hand in hand, but what the Goyim is told of "Corruption" is not always the case. Biden and many other Presidents have done great crimes, started pointless wars, done financial crimes on the back of the people, but the "Goyim" only cares if somehow it's student loan for Gender Studies will be paid out, not if they will be left without descendants and live. Trump is meanwhile crucified by the media and slapped from all sides while having done not even 5% of what the "Good Guys" have done.
Biden has printed 80 billion for feed Zelensky, meanwhile, the Goyim are told to declare anything above 500$ to the IRS or they will do prison time. So we have to think of the reality of matters a lot here. Just writing this to show that one must look not only through the lenses of ethics when they try to understand political reality.
Putin as with any other politician has to deal with a lot of complex realities in his country. He tried to bring Russia in par with the rest of the world, that's better than nothing. Moscow is not the shit-hole that the Communists left it. How much more evolution has to be made? Like in all places, a lot.
Does that make him a very good person or beneficial to us specifically? No. Have these steps evolved the lives of the Russian people by a long margin compared to what was their reality under Stalin? Yes. Are they far from becoming "Free", in the way defined in the "Western Values", which are now collapsing in the twilight of insanity as well? Well, not.
In order for him to start wars and things like this, what does he do? Use buzzwords like Nazis, Satanists, Satan this, evil that. That's the go to of the current culture. But Putin is not making decisions based on some sort of Ancient Truth or anything, but because of what he has in front of him.
Every country and every politician has to be studied on it's own scope and it's own reality. Communist Russia had borderline outlawed religion, and people needed God to believe in. So Putin restored the idea of "God", albeit with what was more handy to him.
I am not saying anything above to say "they are good", I am just saying the above to show more practical political thought process. This type of thinking is very specific in dealing with Politics and it has not got to do with facts or Truth most of the time, let alone the ethical morals that most "would accept".
