Russian President Vladimir Putin has not been seen in public for nearly two weeks and the internet has responded to his vanishing act in the only way it knows how: memes.

Putin is the ultimate escape artist:
Putin a la medieval ars moriendi:
A really dead he-man Putin:
Putin vacation sightings around the world:
Memes can take on a life of their own, even if there's no truth to them.
Putin, kuda vy ushli
Vo vsem mire ili na rodina
Vy okruzheny taynoy
Oni govoryat, chto memy ne mogu opisat' vam
I zemlya mistifitsiruyetsya v vashe otsutstviye
Velikaya Rossiya, tem ne meneye spit v mire
Znaya, chto tebe ostanetsya na yego meste
Dazhe v to vremya kak , kazalos' by, daleko
Rasskazhite nam, dorogoy Volodya, - gde zhe vy ushli?
Putin, where have you gone?
Around the world or in the motherland
You are surrounded by mystery
They say memes cannot describe you
And the earth is mystified at your absence
Great Russia nevertheless sleeps in peace
Knowing you remain at its stead
Even while seemingly far away
Tell us, dear Volodya - where have you gone?
Putin emerging from the Westminster Arms pub:
Aw Jeez, not this rumor again.
This is ROFLMAO funny, the attention this is being paid.
The anti-Russian bent is not going to end well. In fact, it’s counterproductive to the prior 20 years, with most Russians now holding an anti-American view.
I’ve been slurred to no end for my opposing viewpoint on Ukraine, also stating that ‘Putin won’t be around forever’, and here ‘they’ go speculating/trumpeting his demise while completely dismissing the collateral damage due to chronic myopia & defective long-term foreign policy views.
It stands to reason that Russia should go ‘all-in’ and support Mexicans’ ‘right of return’ & claims to the American SW, encourage international embargo against American imperialism & abject interference in other States’ affairs, including war crimes against civilians, and call American elections what they are: Crooked. And, of course, resume arming Cubans.
Fair is fair, right?
But we don’t want to hurt the feelings of the next UN Secretary General, do we???
