I don't think he's wrong. As much as I disagree with John Stewart, I think he hit the nail on the head when he said that conservatives are allying themselves with the anti woke, of which Putin fits the bill. I don't think it's true that conservatives value Putin holistically, but I do think they are finding common cause with the idea that the American government doesn't just get to do whatever it wants. There have been many statements on this board that come across like they are pro Putin.

Thanks. I don't watch much news on the regular and the most I get in one dose is at my neighbor's  when I go clean his house and drop off groceries, prescriptions, etc., and he's a Fox News guy. Not my cup of tea. I do look at different news sites from time to time to have an idea of what's going on. I just can't get too involved in it or I can become obsessed and go down rabbit holes.

I also don't read every single post here so I don't catch everything. 

As for the part in bold I guess I don't think the way most folks do. I may not agree with the progressive left agenda but I'm not going to swing to the far right or support someone who is no better than who I'm objecting to (in their own way) just to prove a point. That makes no sense to me.
