    Like most conservatives, putin loves wars that don’t endanger him in any way. He loves the bloodshed and the misery of the innocent.

    Conservatism is a plague of death. Pure death.

      I don’t even know his politics but I’m reluctant to call Putin a conservative (and that means something else outside of the US anyway). Putin is a murderous, crusading mobster who happens to run a country.

        Anti-LGBT imperialist who promotes a strong man image of himself and operates a thuggish government. With all of the propaganda and lack of freedom of speech and media in Russia, sounds like he’s a fascist more than your garden variety conservative.
