The ironic thing is that many of the Freeper Putin supporters probably had family that fled from the Soviets.
Contrary to what Russian media claims, the protesters were peaceful until that goon president started torturing and shooting them.
Putin can only fool the gullible; he’s like Obama in that regard.
But I thought they were Nazis?
That’s correct. The anti-Soroists actually project Putin practices onto him and pretend he has an army poised to invade an independent country.
So far it looks like the sniping that killed some of the protestors was the work of professionals. If I had seen bodies hanging from trees. I might be more willing to agree with you. When $35 to $45 billion goes missing I think the people had the right to get a little uppity.
Russia is trying to destabilize a country with people that want the basic freedoms they sees in other European countries. Russia can’t allow that.
C’mon, now. The peaceful, benevolent police was beset by the “Occuparasites” for no reason. They were only minding their own business.
Well said. But the FReeper Putinista army insist anyone in Ukraine wanting freedom must be Gay. Therefore, Putin, God’s avenger, must punish them. It’s like we’ve suddenly got the Westboro Baptist Church on FReeRepublic explaining why an avenging tyrant is doing God’s work in destroying a weak neighboring nation, former KGB Colonels being such good Christians, don’t ya know.
Well that’s excellent advice...We’re going to take over your Country town by town and if you object, you’re responsible for the consequences...
I’ve noticed the FReeper Division of the Red Army marching about on FR since this thing started, too. What strikes me is that these are not new members but instead show sign-up dates as far back as 1998.
In reading their collective posts that denounce the actual Ukrainians (as opposed to Russian colonists living in Ukraine) for overthrowing a corrupt and murderous government I am left to wonder how they’d react if Obama came after FReepers or Tea Partiers in the same way? Would they oppose an overthrow of a violent and corrupt Obama regime? Do they oppose the language in our Declaration of Independence that speaks to the right of people to replace corrupt and tyrannical governments with governments more responsive to the people?
In short, I am often left wondering why some of these people are FReepers when they champion authoritarian statism?
How does that quote go? Oh, yes...
“If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen.”
Did I see this on Dynasty season 5 FINALE
LOL!
Just a thought I had

I keep thinking the same thing. Are they that enamored of Putin, these Putinistas, that they’re confused about what he stands for? Yes, I know he’s not Obama. But we all disagree with Obama’s policies and actions. Putin is an autocrat and a phony Christian. Do these “FReepers” really favor the law of the jungle as determined by a former KGB Colonel? I think so.
“Russia is trying to destabilize a country with people that want the basic freedoms they sees in other European countries.”
That statement simply ignores everything that happened before the government fell.
Putin is reacting to events handed to him on a silver platter by Obama and the OS NGO’s.
When your enemy is making a mistake, you let him, then move in to collect the pieces you want. That is what is happening here.
“It really would help them avoid the Nazi label if they didn’t form as the socialist nationalist party, give Nazi salutes, adopt the Wolfsangel emblem of the 2nd SS division as their emblem, and have torchlight parades carrying the portrait of Bandera.
Just sayin’”
Don’t expect any response to that. It’s too inconvenient a truth.
The government didn’t fall! The crooks literally bailed out and left the country after the sniper attacks on the demonstrators. None of government higher ups were taken into custody. One day they were there. The next day they were gone. It’s hard to over throw someone who isn’t there.
I won’t call you a Putin apologist, but you have gone for the Russian propaganda hook, line and sinker.
