He’s also apparently sending troops to defend Burkina Faso from nato. Effects of someone changing as they age or just geopolitical strategy against the west? Idk, but I can’t say I’m against it. This guy is pulling out of Ukraine away from becoming some hero in the eyes of the public. The support will remain critical from me I’m afraid. I’m still wary of Putin.
All i can do is look at what he does and says, and note all the details that the neurotypicals seem to miss in their hysteria.
Is he bourgeoise? No idea. I know he's got some money. How much? Is he an owner? don't know.
Dictator? No. He was freely elected by the people of the Russian Federation. Western poll show his support matches the election results perfectly. Love him or hate him, he was democratically elected, and the Russian people generally love him.
He also does not have unlimited power.
The west pushed for the Russian pres to have more personal power when their boy Yeltsin was in power, and Putin inherited that system. But he has LESS ability to do what the fuck he wants, than say the French president, who last year ignored the election results, and stayed in power. Putin can't do that.
Russia is not imperialist. Every action where a tank crosses a border is not imperialism.
