Why are the American media, both liberal and conservative, so unanimously anti-Russian?

Tsarist Russia somehow provoked repeated Polish uprisings

And how many uprising did Poland provoke, not just from the Ukrainian cossaks but say from the common Russian peasants while Polish lords sat in the Kremlin? Oh, that's right, it's all one sided to you, my bad.

Better Milosevic than the Christian killing Muslims NATO supported.

loser, you can copy/paste crap all you want, but you cant ignore the fact that Putin is a KGB rag doll AND a Commie in a nice suit.

Well we've established several things: 1. you're ignorant 2. you refuse to learn or read anything that doesn't fit into a preset racist view you have 3. you're a great intellectual with words and no 3rd Grader could ever stand up to your wit and 4. ah, heck why bother?

I'd pray the Lord took some of the hatred and deceit out of your heart, that you've displayed here over and over again.

Not true, stupid commies come in ALL races.....and where exactly do you get off calling someone a racist when we are talking about COMMUNISIM...you twit?

Thats like me going up to a smoker and going "Stop smoking, you ....you RACIST!". Now go find some more pro-commie literature that you can paste on the board in hopes of trying to convince people that communism isnt all that bad and that Putin really is a good guy.

It's no longer communist but it's now a semi-dictatorship.

I don't click on these articles about Russia very often, normally when I've skimmed everything else, but if you click on a few of them you will notice very quickly that there are a few freepers with a serious "Russia is Utopia" agenda.

I'm not even going to bother with these anymore and just let these guys get their jollies arguing with someone else or talking about Russia to the same 4 other freepers all the time.

When that twit (that's you, the twit) calls all Russians commies. That then makes you a racist.

Now go find some more pro-commie literature that you can paste on the board in hopes of trying to convince people that communism isnt all that bad and that Putin really is a good guy.

The fact being that those little facts demonstrate conservative values would escape you since to you all Russians are communists and guilty as charged. Bet you secretly wish that they would all just die off to, don't you.

I tell no lies and hate no one, nor am I the only one to suffer your constant false witness and character assassination.

You can tell all the lies about me you want, you will achieve nothing for it. I am not afraid of you and your filth, nor will I back down from your incessant slanders, but I pray the Lord puts meekness in your heart and guilt for you willful sins.

Putin can be as "conservative" as he wants. That doesn't mean he's on our side. Our loyalty is to the USA, not international "conservatism."

Yeah, look out for that forest of planks you planted in your eyes, they're starting to run out of room.

Very true, and on this I'll agree with you. However, that particular argument was whether Russians were communists, as a certain group of posters flat out state and that chart demonstrates that they are not. Whether they are on who's side is situation dependent, as with all nations (well mostly).

That is the sad part - I don't think Russia is a utopia - far from it - I have not seen anyone say so - nor do I think Russia is about to invade America and is our enemy. Yet in arguing with those that do think that many come to think that somehow that makes me an apologist.

I am not - there are things I like about the new Russia and things I don't like - but that is not the same as demonizing.

This guy is a race-hustler with a severe persecution complex.

Most Russians admire Stalin and miss the Soviet Union.

I don't find it being a semi-dicatorship. If it is so is Japan which has been ruled by the same political party since self rule after WW1. I will say Russia is a transitional republic which is why its democracy is not as robust as nations that have not been under totalitarian rule for 70+ years. But in my eyes so far so good.
