    These were picked for their influence, not whether it was good or bad.

    Zelensky>Putin

    Putin's army appears to be bogged down. Not exactly the fearful Russian Bear we were taught we should be afraid of.

    I'm not surprised Time would honor a guy who is getting rich off the US taxpayers. All he has to do to earn it is let his people get killed for the Globalists.

    So all he had to do is stay and be a target marked for death. You’re right, that is easy.

    Propaganda does not deceive people, it merely helps them deceive themselves. When everything the American people believe is false, we will know the success of our misinformation efforts.

    A petty tyrant is TIME's Person of the Year, and an ugly transvestite is TIME's Man Of The Year. Two signs of the times.

    Why Zelensky is a petty tyrant?

    Here again will be silence in return because he has nothing to answer. For some reason, these kinds of people think themselves as free thinkers from propaganda, but in fact they are running around grabbing a bullshit from various doubtful sources and then go to public and spread around this bullshit as it was free from propaganda truth, without much of the understanding what they are actually talking about.

    Let Occam's Razor provide the answer: He looks and acts like a petty tyrant because he IS a petty tyrant.

    As Glenn Greenwald pointed out last night, searches back to 2017 show him to be a modern day personification of Hitler. Today as the little oligarch rules Ukraine, he has banished all opposition parties, he has shut down any media critical of his governance, and now most recently has outlawed the Ukrainian Orthodox Church.

    He is the antithesis of a democratic leader, the antithesis of all things traditionally American (read the US Constitution), and he's lovin' every minute of the vast sums of $ Joe Biden is sending him.

    Aa, some Occam Razor told you so, so free thinker is taking it as final source of truth without much of the thinking? That is what free thinkers do usually - do not think at all. :D

    Do you know ANYTHING about Ukraine? Do you know ANYTHING about Russian Orthodox church? You know that in its last iteration, church was created by Stalin and in fact it's Russia special services affiliate institution? So for free thinkers, it's tyranny to forbid institution of aggressor country in Your land, when You were attacked by this country? This is tyranny for "free thinker" like you, right? Which opposition parties and media were forbidden by Zelenskiy? Can you list them? Or Occam Razor did not specify, so free thinker can't even bring one? :D

    Putin went from a low salary KGB agent to one of the richest people in the world siphoning money off Russian Taxpayers. Every person is corrupt to some level. Putin puts most to shame with his level of corruption including sending 300k office workers to the front lines to die with low ammo, little food and making them buy their own armor. I reckon Putin does not intend to use any of his own money or supposed fantastic Russian economy funds to even help people forced to die for his war.

    He is no doubt extremely brave to stand up to Putin. I don't know how good he is aside from that. Regardless, he deserves the Time Magazine person of the year distinction.

    I mean, standing up to an invading dictator, gathering support from allies, etc. is a pretty good feather in one's cap, in and of itself.

    I don't know enough about Ukraine system of government. It is more of a democracy than Russia? The talk about Nazis etc is fake news?

    Yes, it's more of a democracy than Russia, though that isn't saying much. They tend to rank higher on every measure of personal freedom. As for Nazis, no, the Ukrainian government is not Nazi in any way. Zelensky is the descendent of Nazi survivors.
