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.
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 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.

What are the consequences?
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.

are you a chatbot? the casual misuse of normal words and generally failing to answer literally any pointed question sure makes it look that way.
have you behaved in a way that you feel warrants good faith engagement?
