    What’s with that charicature of Putin? Why the long nose? Why the pointy ears? It doesn’t even look like Putin. Is it implying something? Is it racist? I don’t get what’s going on there.

      Putin caricatures are very often with elf ears and I think all of the ones I’ve seen have a long nose. Caricatures always exaggerate features and I guess his nose is kinda big. Ears look pretty average to me though.

        He don’t even have big nose.

        I would say he is very average, if not for his face being in media all the time you woudn’t even look at him second time on the street.

          I dunno. Do be lookin kinda long and wide up front.

          Although, I kinda suck at all things related to face recognition, so you’re probably right. People approximating age even with margin of error of 10 years is pretty much magic to me, for example.

          My prediction: the big-nose Putin caricatures are going to evolve pretty soon into people writing “Russia” with three sets of parentheses.

            I bet they already do. Those types have the strong tendency to unify itheir conspiracy theories, so the judeobolshevism and Russia being secretly USSR are probably melding already.
