    There is a line. Putin may be the closest thing we’ve had to actual Hitler in the modern era, in his actions and his aspirations, but maybe the difference is that he doesn’t have IBM making him efficient and his “opponent” has the early support of a superpower in the US.

    Your sentiments are generally true, but there’s a limit, and especially during an open conflict like this. He’s a dictator that has his friends pushed out of Windows when they no longer serve his need. He’s also been caught leading coordinated efforts to taint the results of American elections. You don’t platform this, as an American.

    Freedom has limits among adults. You’re not allowed to own a tank and drive it to the grocery store, you can’t manufacture and sell heroin as a private citizen. There are some limits we agree to.
