re: #53 Sergey Romanov

You know, Putin’s regime is a conservative one. I don’t mean the American definition which includes the fiscal component. But Russia is now ruled by moderate social conservatives and I don’t like it a bit. (The United Russia party does openly call itself a conservative party, BTW). So I get why freeper-level people may like him on a personal level.

I’m sure they also admire the official homophobia and the return of power by the Orthodox Church reminiscent of Czarist days.
