 The point is CONSISTENCY!  I don't care if a world leader is "disgusting" because that is subjective anyway.  

We should hear all sides especially when we are talking about wars and potential wars.  I am pro free speech, pro free journalism, always.

It is principle over preference, you should give it a shot.  There are people I despise way more than Putin.   Honestly every federal politician in the US has done more harm to me than Putin, but I don't want them silenced.  

I think the head of Venezuela is one of the most revolting humans on the planet but if someone did a real interview with him like Tucker just did with Putin I'd listen, hell may be I am wrong, may be I am right but don't have the full picture.  

I don't silo my sources of information to suit my bias.  I think we we should never stop talking to and hearing from all sides in a conflict.  EVERY FUCKIN WAR ENDS WITH DIPLOMACY, so why not FUCKING START THERE YOU DAFT DIPSHIT.  If we did so perhaps would could prevent the sensless killing of millions.
