    Yeah let’s just judge entire people by their elected leaders. Let’s forget about Citizens United, the bullshit voting system, gerrymandering, voter suppression, foreign influence campaigns, corrupt primaries, and the death of the fairness doctrine. You can totally judge an entire people based on their president, that’s not childish at all.

    Big fat /S for those who so clearly need everything spelled out

      Thank you! I’ve said it before and I’ll say it now. Even though Putin does have way more support than trump does, I will never judge the whole of the Russian people by his actions as dictator.

        Some Russians get it. Pussy Riot and Little Big shows that much. You always wish the people living under corrupt authoritarians were more rowdy, outspoken, proactive - but there’s no such thing as a morally superior hater.
