We were a lot more civil before he came along. Vladimir Putin is a James Bond villain. He has been using the internet to spread fear and misinformation since he came into power, and that has been breaking humanity, and it broke the United States. If we ever get back in power, we need to declare Russia as a hostile enemy of the free world. Sanctions aren't enough. It's time to do something about this monster. He's no better than Osama bin Laden.
