      uses TV/Russia State news

      i wonder if he does the same thing Westerners do where we just reverse or inverse whatever Russian claims are made to have a better understanding of whats actually happening, since they live in Opposite Land

      So the more effusive the news, the worse things actually. Kind of like how suspects in a criminal investigation often cant help their case by making statements but the are allowed to hurt their case with their statements****

      Doesnt make sense tho, he definitely sets their agenda and talking points so how could he be getting his news from that, thats rescursive or something. He definitely uses the internet

    When politicians are not in public they are simply stored in the closet.

    I don’t know about Putin but I mean you would have to assume the upper echelons do as a general rule. That’s how corrupt kleptocracies work. They pass laws for you but not for them.
