Russia and Ukraine

[Rev. Rye]

Yup, Putin has gone full Hitler, or perhaps full Stalin.

I wouldn’t say he’s gone full Hitler until he starts to herd the Ukrainians into extermination camps. Admittedly, I wouldn’t put that past him. As for Full Stalin? It’s safe to assume that if he hasn’t gone Full Stalin, he’s really chomping at the bit to do so. And the sad thing is I’m almost certain that the majority of Russians wouldn’t even see him being compared to Stalin as a bad thing, because If you’ve ever had a female acquaintance who kept falling in love with men who beat the shit out of her, that’s basically been Russia’s relationship with her rulers and has been thus for centuries.
