I figure the one thing we are not here are partisan warmongers... Putin lovers ... Russia aficionados...etc because generally the level of debate is above that.
Personaly I don't actually care if people are: neither do I care if they are alternatively US worshipers, China lovers, etc. because a valid point is a valid point and needs no flag-waving.
What I have come to despise in the modern world are these required ritual condemnathons ("Putin is a dictator but..." "Assad is a murder but..." ) No one should be required to acknowledge a particular "creed" nor submit to the Overton window of some other interlocutor before saying what they think: it makes for poor debate and bad politics Avoiding that is what this site is good at.
