All you need to know about Putin is that if he was big enough he'd eat you... autocratic on automatic is barbaric.
Rumour has it that the army of the autocrat can defect into the very comfortable western POW system. A hotel stay and a new passport. Join the good guys? The freedom to chose, is yours.
"A true communist loves and cares for all around them. If they are a leader they love and care for their nation, supporting the individual, family, community and country. It is sad that today there are many pretending to be communists. They are totalitarians and autocrats. They are the bully not the loving parental figure all "chiefs" must be for national health. A great leader is an updraft, a feeling of elevation and shows the way to peace and sustainability. The faux-communist loves themselves, is a gangster capitalist in thin disguise and cares more for their own ego and image than the sons and daughters of their motherland. When foreign nations show more love for the citizens than their own leader the diagnosis of faux-comrade is complete," said the general, head raised to the coming dawn.
Did you hear the joke about the broke autocrat who went mercenary shopping? That was it, bye 'den.
