Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984 Posted December 9, 2022 Share Posted December 9, 2022 Volodimir Zelinskyy it had to be either him or Putsky. He has changed from comedic actor to statesman in only a few months. And I think the beard makes him look more mature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JEL The Man of the Year designation is not an award like an Oscar. It’s not given. It always confuses people. Adolf Hitler was Man of the Year in 1938. It is simply an opinion of the person who has had the largest impact on world politics or society in the past year. This yer it could probably be a tossup between Zelensky and Putin.

Most wrote on people like Edison, Franklin, Susan B Anthony etc. I wrote mine on Hitler. Shocked the class but the professor loved it. The assignment never said their influence had to be positive. I remember noting that Hitler won Time's man of the year. My point here was saying that anyone who can garner that much money and that much sympathy all while still being a vile dictator deserves an award... be it for positive or negative influence/deeds.

Much like Russia invaded the Crimean peninsula with the help of treasonous Ukrainian citizens? The only reason to call him a dictator is to support Putin and his invasion of Ukraine.

Why would anyone support Putin and his agenda? I know many Russians in Ukraine, none were in favor of Russia. many were in Crimea and have immigrated to the US. Some now have citizenship, others are applying. in Ukraine and Russia people had passports, not international, just little books to show identity, a new photo every five years was needed. Getting International passports was another thing. In 2014, after the Russians started causing trouble, they offered Russian papers to everyone. When they occupied Crimea, Russian papers were required. in 2016 my friend arranged for us to go on a two day tour of the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone. It is necessary to show Id at least twice for this tour. The night before, her purse was robbed and her Ukrainian internal id was stolen. She was able to call the tour company and give them the serial number of her international passport. We had no problems on the tour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
