Yeah, ya see I want the operations over there to be good thing too, but I have to be realistic about there being other (possibly more likely) possibilities here.
Seems like every time you question Putin's intentions people get really mad. I'm not sure if it's because people instantly assume you're a low info leftist (I could get that) or because they are totally convinced that his efforts are secretly to uproot the deep state, which would be a great thing but it's foolish not to consider other possibilities in lieu of hard supporting evidence. I get that it's less comfortable to people than believing that a Russian dictator is teaming up with a Chinese communist dictator, but we were taught to think, not just blindly accept.
