Not everyone is, but when you are a new account obviously doing nothing but making simplistic and inaccurate arguments carrying Putin's water, you are at best a Useful Idiot (in the Vladimir Lenin sense) or a troll/bot.

Inapplicable here

You literally are carrying Putin's water in this discussion.

People doing that are either fooled, or doing it deliberately. I did leave out the option that you could actually support anti-democratic authoritarian governments, because there is no enlightened thought path to that conclusion (& no Hobbes' writings do not get there), leaving us with only the two options, fooled, or trolling for a higher power structure. I'm not really interested in which.
