        I think what they're saying is that Putin really wants a "Crony Capitalist" Neo-USSR. Still dumb for a ton of reasons, not the least of which is that the supposed reason for this is that he doesn't want Ukraine to join NATO, which is the reddest of red lines for literally any possible iteration of the Russian government.
