Amazing description of what Vladimir Putin has done. [View all]

Came across this post which I think hits the nail on the head on what's been going on in the last 5+ years.

[link:https://www.quora.com/Why-do-some-people-say-that-Vladimir-Putin-is-evil/answers/58558904|

I watch Russian news everyday, in Russian. My family is Russian. Most of my friends are Russians. I am an American but live in Latvia and Italy.

Have you noticed all the chaos in the world? Have you noticed that this chaos has increased tremendously in the past few years? Especially in the Middle East, Europe and the USA? Do you ever wonder why?

I will tell you.

There is a genius living in Moscow who is a former KGB colonel. He decided that he could make his country a world power again, increase its influence and respect and make himself one of the richest men in the world at the same time. His methods are brilliant and extremely well executed. Create chaos everywhere possible and then present himself as the sane and stable world leader who can lead in the absence of other great leaders.

He made sure that Donald Trump was elected president of the USA. He sent out his trolls to create chaos in America, UK, France, Germany, Spain and other European countries. He supported dictators in the Middle East and helped create millions of refugees knowing that they would head for Europe. He did not take any into his country for obvious reasons. Chaos has ensued.

He controls every media outlet in the Russian speaking world. Anyone who runs against him or becomes too powerful in opposition to him ends up dead or in prison. His propaganda machine is rivaled only by the propaganda machine of the American right wing. His is probably better but its reach is not as great since there are fewer Russian speakers than English speakers.

I am watching, the last few evenings, an amazing propaganda campaign on Russian stations against George Soros. Soros hates fascists as much as he hated the USSR. This evil genius has had his trolls spreading propaganda and lies about Soros in America for a couple of years blaming Soros for every anti-fascist, anti Trump protest in America and now his machine has gone full bore on Soros in Russia. He even uses right wing crazies in America to reinforce his propaganda campaign on Russian TV. Soros is now the evil genius behind all the chaos in the world. See how that works?

I could go on and on and on and I would still only be scratching the surface. I am not privy to all the evil and machinations of Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin. But I can assure you. Everything I have written here is true and is the reason he is despised in so many places in the world and by so many.

I am sure that if the truth ever comes out about this evil puppet master and all the chaos and evil he perpetuates around the world, even the Russian people will hate him.

I have stood face to face with this guy and he is as evil and dangerous as he is purported to be.
