| How do you feel about Putin? How do you feel about the current regime of Russia (democratic, authoritarian, etc)? |

"How do you feel about Putin?"
he's pretty ok as he is the only (and thus best, sorry) leader russia has. he is seriously not a dictator, and the media just loves loves loves picking on the worst parts of putin's presidency. before the ukraine garbage, putin had a track record of reducing unemployement in both of his terms (and overall an improvement in a lot of things), which is why putin has/had a good approval rating and got reelected, and i suppose his approval rating / reelection is why people think putin is some sort of dictator
russia has, thus far, not had the luxury of being able to develop its democracy like the us. in a few decades, they are going to see two main parties form (first pass the post trend!) and plenty of new politicians just like in the early history of the us. if you look at the 2012 election, everyone who ran against putin was totally a joke and putin was probably the only respectable candidate. |

Or maybe it's because he uses the media to form a cult of personality around him, or him banning certain forms of speech, or him threatening nations around him, or invading sovereign nations, or his disregard for human rights for LGBT's. |

sorry but russian media does not mention putin much except where politics applies and the news is just a russian version of the bbc from my experience
"or him banning certain forms of speech,"
well that's more of the rest of the turds in the russian government fault mang, but it's not like anyone cares
but seriously, no one cares
i can dare insult putin in public in front of policemen and they won't care
those weird laws that are passed don't do anything
"or him threatening nations around him,"
ya
"or invading sovereign nations,"
ukraine is a seriously messed up country anyways so i don't know if it's worth defending a country on this internet when it fails to provide some basic services for its citizens
"or his disregard for human rights for LGBT's."
the russian police could not give less damns about lgbt so they can live pretty normal lgbt lives without the fear of being lynched/arrested/assassinated by putin or whatever other fantasies the internet makes up
the laws that the russian government passes are totally jokes and may be literally jokes as they have totally no sway in anything |

Except that's essentially what you're saying. It would be like saying the US should invade Mexico because they are run by cartels. It's a nonsensical argument using ridiculous rhetoric that they get from Kremlin-sponsored media. |

Did you get permission to go to Russia? Cause I've heard, and been told, you need permission to go there. It isn't a free country... they're becoming less communist, so... there's that. |

mexico still has a functioning government though which is good for the mexicans
"It's a nonsensical argument using ridiculous rhetoric that they get from Kremlin-sponsored media."
but there is no such thing as kremlin sponsored media as explained earlier
people who have that opinion in russia just spread it by word of mouse
"bring back souvenir ak-47 "
yes, our largest suitcase will be empty on our trip back because we're bringing a ton of gifts (and cheese because sanctions) to our relatives
not enough room for a t-14 but the perfect size for an ak |
