    So what? Putin hadn’t gone full Nazi yet and was for the most part a respected world leader. The fact that he spoke up against the bullshit Iraq war, just shows that even assholes can be right occasionally.

    Putin of 2000 is not Putin of 2020.

    And furthermore, I’d say there’s a big difference between let him give a speech at a university and let him have Ukraine.

    Not to be that guy, but you’re absolutely that guy looking for bOtH sIdEs false equivalencies.
