You all always act like if someone criticizes Putin that this person is somehow on the other side or in support of the opposing forces, this is simply not reality

As if Russia is some sort of paradise which only you are able to see and everyone else just paints it black because they are evil.

As a libertarian I tell you one thing, as much as I despise western politics and politicians, as I see they try as much as they can to centralize control over finance and speech, I know who their role model is. It's models like the north korean one, the chinese one.

And by my life I do not want to be on that side of the isle, currently and over the last 60 years the west has always been freer as the east.

As if the communist past wasn't enough you act as if russia is a safe heaven for free speech, free society.

Russia is the Aggressor in this case and yes, Maidan, Nazis on both sides, we heard those stories over and over again.

Is Putin attacking Ukraines Politicians? Or who is dying in the trenches, in the dirt through man made horrors beyond comprehension?

It's the average guy that is in many cases forced by their collectivist leaders on BOTH sides.
