You can call Putin a genius of depravity and corruption. A person with the ethics of a mafia boss and sadism of doctor Mengele — and an absolute coward to the core.
He will be known in history books as the ruler who single-handedly destroyed the remnants of the Russian Empire, by setting in motion a chain of events that led to the geopolitical demise of Moscow.
Putin was lucky when he got handed the reins of the country that was on a strong upward trajectory — he was awarded the accolades for what his predecessor set in motion.
Putin took a country that was set to thrive — and smashed it into a concrete wall.
Russians suspect he’s a Chinese spy — because of what he’s done to Russia. Russia under Putin has irreversibly transitioned into the raw materials appendage of the Chinese industrial complex — the industrial might of the Soviet Union, still accessible 30 years ago after the crash of the USSR, is all but a distant memory today.
Russia is behind in every technical aspect — the 3 years of the Ukrainian war inflicted devastating damage on Russia’s scientific and industrial potential.
You need to be a genius to cause such devastation to an economy that otherwise should have been thriving.
If the Russian economy is in tatters, but still functioning, albeit haphazardly — Russia’s stature on the world stage got completely torched.
Putin became so toxic that an alliance with him can destroy any politician’s reputation and future.
The values-based western democracies are still the aspirational beacon of light and dignity — while greed and Machiavellianism are universally despised.
The history makes sense when looking backwards — but we have to live it forwards.
The only thing that is obvious to those who learned from history is that after a period of utmost turbulence comes rebirth into the light.
The dark forces that crawled from the past epoch are on their death throes.
We are nearly there.
