Dog, Putin and his gang make life miserable for people who are tired of his dictatorship. There really isn't a moral equivalence here.

The FSB decided to take over and install Putin after the US bought off Yeltsin and destroyed the chance for democracy in Russia. And I am not making a moral case here; politics is rarely moralistic.

Putin props up Assad, threatens and invades weaker nations, kills free speech, murders opponents, all while brilliant tech pros act like they've never read history. There's a reason you're in Cambridge and not East Europe/Russia right now.

History is not well understood as the struggle of large groups of good people against large groups of bad people. If you replaced Putin by, say, Hillary Clinton, do you think living conditions in Russia would improve?
