Read this entire thread. It’s Putin’s dark speech from today, annexing parts of Ukraine, even while they retake these parts, and Putin just berates the United States as if he were Trump or Tucker.

Which is what amazes me the most about this. At least 3/4ths of this speech is stuff we’ve heard laundered ad nauseum by Republicans and Republican controlled media. It’s anti American, it’s pro conspiracy, it’s attacking the LGBT community. It’s a war against liberal democracy itself.
This is what western democracies in the 21st century are up against. We are up against right wing authoritarians who weaponize the freedoms of liberal democracies to attack liberal democracies. Putin exploits our freedom of the press and religion to spew disinformation and turn religious people into hate filled zombies that attack fellow countrymen of marginalized populations.

How many pastors and Republicans running for public office have voiced similar claims? Too many to count. Even Trump lately sounds like this with his Qanon talk.
And this is where the far left meets the mainstream right in hating America, western institutions and alliances:

This is so dangerous. The freedom and prosperity we enjoy today is truly at risk by those who seek to weaponize our own democracy against us.
