Lol this is just stupid. So because there COULD be worse alternatives to Putin, that somehow justifies keeping him in power? Who the fuck would they even be referring to? They would have to actually know of someone worse to make that determination lolYou should really read and then think about the polls you want to cite before commenting.
Are there any alternatives to Putin being in power in Russia that could yield worse outcomes?
The answer to that is a resounding, "Yes". The enemy you know is a known quantity, who might replace them isn't necessarily known or preferred.
