It's extraordinarily simple. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, (((they))) achieved complete control over Russia, far more complete even than (((they))) have in the US right now, if you can believe that. Russia was like a gagged whore at the end of their leather leash.

Then Putin came along. (((They))) selected him as the new puppet to replace Yeltsin one that slovenly drunk had passed away, but once in "power" he turned the tables on them and achieved actual power, displacing them in the process. He quite literally "stole" Russia from them, and so they hate him.

Take (((them))) to be what you will.

Short, succint and absolutely correct.

THIS.IS.IT.

Now knowing this the reader might ponder if Russia is a one off or if the method used to gain control in Russia has been done in other countries. Down the rabbit hole.

There was a book written about this.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Confessions_of_an_Economic_Hit_Man

According to Perkins, his role at Main was to convince leaders of underdeveloped countries to accept substantial development loans for large construction and engineering projects that would primarily help the richest families and local elites, rather than the poor, while making sure that these projects were contracted to U.S. companies. Later these (((loans))) would give the U.S. political influence and access to natural resources for U.S. companies.

There are a LOT of great comments from other posters here regarding the social/cultural reasons why the left hates Putin, so I won't address that in this post.

However, something overlooked is the POLITICAL and ECONOMICAL reasons why Putin is hated.

Here's the reality: The "elite", be they GOP, Democrat, whomever, want two things: MORE MONEY, and MORE POWER.

One of the quickest and most efficient ways of securing both of these things is WAR. But war with whom? The American people, by and large, are iPhone obsessed zombies. They are not a war-mongering type. They want comfort and fantasy. War is ugly. They must be goaded into accepting it.

We saw Bush pull it off with Iraq and the fictional WMDs. But we invaded Iraq, there were no WMDs. Of course, we now have ISIS, but how do you kill an ideology? It's very hard build tanks, airplanes, and bombs to kill "lone wolves".

Enter Russia.

Even if you didn't live through the cold war, EVERYONE in America is aware of at least the basic facts. For this reason, a large portion of Americans are still uncomfortable with the idea of a powerful Russia. So Russia makes an easy scapegoat and enemy for the "elite" to get the Americans to hate. Putin is our Goldstein (1984).

If the elites are successful in both convincing the American people/congress into declaring war on Russia OR if they are able to goad Russia into acting "aggressively" enough to justify military intervention, it will accomplish several things:

1. It will pour more money into the military industrial complex.

2. It will (temporarily) kickstart the economy. Note that this is not a REAL economic success. Nothing of value will be produced. The money printed and spent will be by the US Govt, and will go towards weapons we don't need and soldiers to fight and "enemy" who would be better left alone.

3. Putin stands in the way of Globalism. As long as Russia stands strong, the NWO will not be complete.

4. Putin stands in the way of NATO and the EU. Russia is a strong advocate against both, and since Russia borders Poland and the like, Putin stands in the way of the NWO absorbing these countries into it's fold

There are other political/economic reasons, but I think this is a good start.

It's off-the-charts.

I was listening to the radio a bit in the car yesterday, and during a left wing show (Egan and Braude), they really liked that the VP candidates (including Pence) talked about "going after Putin".

It's not just a dislike. The left now openly demonizes him, "big-league".

Is it it just because of the gays? I think Kaine even mentioned that during the debate (Putin is mean to BLTs or something).

It's also not only in the U.S. but also in the U.K. Check out the Labour MP in this clip:


By the 'left', you Yanks probably mean liberals or Libtards as I call them. I would consider myself Hard Left (Irish Republican) and I dont have any hate for Putin. In fact, many on the genuine Left welcome the rise of Russia as a counterweight to unchecked Anglo-American imperialist aggression. We don't agree with everything that Putin does but like the Soviet Union whom we supported for the very same reason, see Russia as a necessary force.

- He's a crook
- He's incompetent. Russia remains a 2nd world country with little manufacturing over-reliant on falling commodities' prices. If we want to admire dictatorships...the Chinese Communist party, with all its defects, has lifted China out of poverty...Putin has plunged Russia into poverty in the last couple of years.
He had years to develop an industrial base for Russia...but he has just squandered the money of the 100$/barrel days.
- He hasn't really done anything to fight corruption in Russia (Russia ranks even worse than some African countries in this regard)
- He's trying to destabilize the US through Trump (Americans supporting Putin are disgusting...they are basically supporting somebody who is meddling into their internal politics with dirty tactics)
- He promoted traditional family values...while being divorced

If you like him so much, you are welcome to move to that 3rd world country that is Russia...

I'm old enough to remember the scare behind nuclear winter and M.A.D. but a lot of limp wristed kids these days don't recall all that. They didn't live through the good old days of the U.S.S.R.

Fucking around with Russia is extremely dangerous.

It has nothing to do with liking Putin or not it has everything to do with Russia's history of brutal warfare (which it usually wins) and its vast nuclear stockpiles.

It's amazing how many little dumb millenial faggots, balding cucklords, and short haired lesbos on twitter are calling for escalating with Russia like it's a game.

It's unbelievably stupid. These people clearly do not live in the real world.

Hillary is the political manifestation of that slack jawed retardation.

The Hamster is strong within this one.
:hamster3:

I wonder how you would do in a leadership role, when the entire Globalist community is pushing against you?
I'm simply impressed by the fact that Putin has avoided assassination this long, while simultaneously imposing his dominance with all the odds stacked against him.

You know.
I'd never trust Putin or anyone associated with the Kremlin.
Yet I do find it rather amusing how, as one of the main purveyors of regressive politics for the better part of the past century.
Now, the Kremlin has all these chickens coming home to roost.
Pussy Riot. Alinskyites such as Hillary. Soros & his NGO's.

I suppose it just adds to the idea that the left has no qualm eating it's own.

This article has a good answer.

Young Russian cadets and ballerinas re-enact [size=large]traditional lavish ball between officers and noble maidens in a throwback to Tsarist times[/size]

-In 18th and 19th-century Russia, the social life of the aristocracy revolved around a series of high-society balls
-On Tuesday young ballerinas and cadets from esteemed naval and military schools held a traditional ball
-They gathered in all their finery for their first ball in the Saint George Hall of the Mikhailovsky Castle

Take caution in believing any of Putin's motives. The patriarchy and nationalism is smoke and mirrors. Like most politicians he is out for himself and power out all costs. Russian has suffered economically and lost quite a bit of their freedom of speech.

It is funny how the political tide has turned. It wasn't too long ago that Reagan and other conservatives hated and feared Russia (USSR). Remember the "evil empire"? It wont long until Trump changes his tune on Russia once his is fully debriefed by his military and intelligence advisors.

They hate Putin because Russia is a white Christian nation and Putin likes it that way and does not believe in multiculturalism.

On the one hand, you say Russia has suffered and imply that's bad, and on the other you say we should fear and hate them. :huh:

Russia isn't the USSR. I'm not interested in importing Russian immigrants wholesale but I see no reason to fear them. They don't want a fight with us. The biggest problem I see in US-Russian relations is the crazy Cold War-leftover boomer fear of Russia. If that disappeared, people would be a lot less tolerant of Obama's repeated provocation of Putin for absolutely no good reason.
