    You know, if criticizing killing is a “pro-Putin talking point,” then pro Putin talking points clearly aren’t always bad?

    If they are Pro-Putin, they must be bad. Or possibly an evil trick, trying to fool me into thinking Russians aren’t a D&D monster race that is ontological evil.

    Should I be in favour of murder to really show how much I hate Putin?

    I mean, the real irony of all this is in how politically tight Putin and Netanyahu have been over the last twenty years. What’s more, the over 80k Russian Jews migrating to Israel since the start of Russia-Ukraine hostilities have been at the forefront of the Israeli settler movement over the same period of time.

    So… you could kinda sorta see a line between these two countries and their respective wars on their neighbors.

    But that kind of analysis sends pro-Israel / anti-Russia journalists into a confused and angry spiral. So we go out of our way to avoid conflating these conflicts at every opportunity.

    I agree with Putin that the sky is blue too. I’m expecting my rubles in the mail any day now.
