    This guy literally murders his political opponents, locks up journalists, and crushes free speech,

    Wow you've swallowed every bankrupt narrative about Putin in existence. Evidence free libel by people with axes to grind make all sorts of outlandish claims like this against him without evidence. as for 'crushes free speech' I mean grow the fuck up. Every culture on Earth does this. Russia has its taboos like any other country on Earth.

    By "free speech" in the united states we mean freedom to have drag queen story hour and get blacklisted for speaking out against it. I'll take Putins version any day.

    Did the National Bolshevik Party have drag queen story hour?

    I don't know what the national bolshevik party is, but I'm guessing they didn't?

    They're a political party in Russia that was banned for being anti-Putin. Their flag is literally just the Nazi flag with a hammer and sickle instead of a swastika, which tells you everything you need to know about what they believe.

    Fascinating. What point were you trying to make by mentioning them?

    When I said "crushes free speech" I was talking about the Nazbol party, and other parties banned by Putin

    Understood. I was pointing out how free speech has fared in the united states, not so good. Speech here is controlled by megacorporations that are doing worse than Putin.

    True. Big tech especially censors people they disagree with, push fake news, and bend the narrative.
