The level of Putin support here by conservatives is depressing. I guess this is what being in denial is about. The man has revealed himself as a crazed monster.
Thank goodness the Ukrainians will soon be in Moscow. Then Putin will get his comeuppance. Have those Ukrainian super heroes lost a man yet? Imagine, a military 1/50th the effectiveness of NATO mopping the floor with the Russian armored and mechanized divisions that have terrified Brussels for seventy years. Have you sent you donation for the Snake Island martyrs memorial yet?
I have been here a long time and it boggles the mind. Putin is a communist dictator who slaughtered a priest today and has lied to his own people and troops. His actions are evil and completely opposed to the God loving principles of freedom we here are thought to espouse.

They are not conservatives. They are Liberaltarians. They are about 3% of the population, but they are very loud.
Their opinions are not respected, nor taken seriously.
Many of us can’t help but compare Putin to Biden.
That is what you are seeing.
It is what it is.
It would help you if you’d recognize some people aren’t taking a side politically regarding Ukraines war....rather they have followed the negotiations for a long time and understand the dynamics which brought this to war.
What changed from all the years of negotiations was Ukraine got a new President...Zelensky....and US got Biden. Additionally NATO?US ‘increasingly ‘putting armament in Nato countries including Ukraine...and training officers to train Ukrainians for war. Also relocating Germany base to Poland.
