(#5112) Still no verified sighting of putin: Ukraine continues killing Russians soldiers at alarming rates

      The major news outlets are not reporting on why putin is "hiding" from the public. I say that is not like putin. He likes the fame and attention so for him to be letting others speak for him even about whether he is dead or not is out of character for him. When the kremlin has to rebut a claim of putin being dead then you can pretty much bet that putin is not able to speak for himself. Whether through death or incapacitation, the silence coming from the brutal dictator putin is deafening. Another question is why is the media not reporting on the possibility that putin no longer exists? Why their silence on this crucial subject? What the fuck is going on?
     I know why the assholes in the kremlin are not allowing for proof of putin being alive because they want to control the narrative whether putin is alive or dead. But the world media? What is their excuse? The kremlin can keep blaming putin if things go horribly wrong with Ukraine while keeping the status quo, instead of being truthful and reorganizing their society. That putin was allowed to destroy the Russian economy and kill off over 125,000 troops so far is irrelevant to their ultimate goal of having Ukraine for themselves. I often on these posts mention how putin's ego was the driving force behind Russia's imperialism but what I am seeing now is that putins ego was not alone. Too many in the power structure of the kremlin are just like putin.
     So instead of thinking that the death of putin would change the dynamics of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, I am seeing it not having any effect at all. So this invasion is now on Russia, not the cruel brutish tyrant that served as their leader. As putin was a puppet, the kremlin is the monster pulling the strings. Russia is showing itself as a pariah state and what happens to them in retaliation for their dirty deeds is justified and coming. There is no way that the west will allow the kremlin to keep any part of Ukraine whether putin is alive or dead. So the kremlin had better be ready to accept their mantle of shame and loss that their inglorious leader was about to be crowned with.
