          I am asking you to define the term you are using, "Putinist". Are you intending to signify Russian nationalism? Specifically supporters of Putin the man? Neoliberal Russians? Define your term.

              I'm beginning to think you either don't know what you mean when you throw around labels like this, or you're engaging in bad faith.

                  It would waste a lot less time and seem a lot more "in good faith" if you could manage to simply define your terms. I am trying to illustrate the point that "Putinist", a term you have used more than once despite your claim that you are against labels, is a meaningless label created by people who are fundamentally ignorant about the political climate in Russia. You seem to know that you are using a term you can't define, so you're being extremely evasive.

                  I'm getting bad faith from some commenters as well.

                  have you behaved in a way that you feel warrants good faith engagement?

                  I think what they're looking for is a definition so they know whether you're saying something that you've actually thought through carefully to come to, or whether your politics are entirely based on vibes.

                  why can't you just define the words you use
