8. Yes, "wildly overblown" and "absurdly distorted"

are indeed opinions like any other. I'm sure at the least we could agree that Ali typically writes from a singular editorial perspective.

I'm an avid of Noam Chomsky (a product of the U.S. school system). He writes from a similar perspective with equal passion and tenacity. My enjoyment of his writing and perspective doesn't mean that I always follow his arguments for the malfeasance and perfidy of the United States government to their each and every sinister and sordid conclusion.

Now, AvidMerion presents another argument that places no blame or responsibility for the reckless and dysfunctional state of the Russian economy on any person or institution inside Russia, but rather places all of the blame and responsibility on outsiders.

Listen, fuck Ronald Reagan and Goldman Sachs and the IMF. But lets not forget a big "fuck you" for Vladimir Putin. He richly deserves it.
