    If you want to see two propagandists talk for two hours, why not?

    If you want to learn Putin’s take on Russian history you’re better off reading some of his speeches, the wikipedia entry on Putin, or perhaps a bit about Aleksandr Dugin. Then remember that Putin is a man who has previously defended the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact and Stalin, and has the charisma of a walnut.

    The interview with Tucker Carlson is hours long, Putin’s clearly in full propaganda dictatorsplain mode, and it’s boring. Putin’s famous 2007 Munich Speech is only half an hour long, more honest and more interesting:

    If you want to understand modern Russia watch something like Adam Curtis’ Russia 1985-1999 TraumaZone. It’s genuinely interesting, fascinating, and you’ll actually understand the Russians’ perspective more. If you want to learn about Russian history, there are podcasts which will give you a far more entertaining and accurate overview.

    Turd vs shithead.

    Not interested personally but I can see how others can find it fascinating. Specially that Putin gets away with murders without any problems.

    Any US Media is taken by US propaganda bots. Watch my comment go into negative territory.

    Freedom of speech means go listen to the other side and form your opinion.

    1 billion people did it across the globe.

    One of the better lectures on medieval Russian history I’ve seen.

    Also you get to see Tucker called a glowie to his face.

      Hearing about Russian history from Putin? How legit could that be, he totally distorts current events back to at least the fall of the Sovjet Union.

        He’s previously defended the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact, so yeah.

        To be fair, it’s hard to tell what the man believes anymore.
