Why does the left hate Putin?

Honestly curious? Sure he is a bad guy and a dictator, but the world is filled with bad guys and dictators they are perfectly fine doing business with (see Iran, China, Venezuela, Saudia Arabia, Canada)
What specifically about Putin makes them melt so hard. I know there is more there than they are willing to admit, but what is it?
FYI, I have no dog in the fight either way, not Pro Putin. There are enough dictators here in America to deal with before I need to worry about Putin.

He's in Ukraine where all their dirty laundry resides.

Plenty of dictators the left loves have ultra "conservative" social views
Ultimately it's Trump. Look at how they treated Romney. It all changed with Trump.

They loved Putin when Obama was president.

Russiagate was about domestic politics: concocting an idiotic conspiracy theory (for which Mueller found no proof) to allow the US security state to sabotage Trump.
But it was also a geopolitical project: convince millions of Americans to hate Russia, view it as a grave threat.

The primary critique of the 5-year-long Russiagate hysteria wasn't that it was driven by laughably stupid conspiracies about Putin controlling the US through blackmail (though it was).
The deeper concern: it was fostering a McCarthyite climate, destroying US/Russia dialogue.

The Left can't function without a crisis.
Covid got stale. Climate gets stale. Racism gets stale.
War is fresh. A plump apple of crisis.

I see right-wingers on here carrying water for Putin too...at least that is how it seems at first glance.
I feel like remarking on this is just basically "I noticed someone who is not aligned with the centrist consensus"
Which I mean, the centrist consensus in this country sucks arse. Sometimes people take it too far and end up damage controlling for foreigners doing abhorrent things.

The Demonrats do business with many, many murderous thugs. Hell they riot when some murderous thugs are killed being arrested. Try again.

the fact you think the left hates Putin proves you are absolutely 100% clueless about the real world. Putin is just a puppet. they are all just actors playing parts to funnel money to themselves. it's all about money laundering. nothing more; nothing less.

Fair point. It’s why I hate him though.

The elites hate his guts because he is not a globalist trying to help them enslave the human race.
The dims that vote for their own enslavement do so because they are fricking stupid and believe whatever the elites tell them to believe.

It's obvious why any American is adverse to Putin right now. He is involved in a barbaric and unprovoked invasion and siege of a neighboring European country. The better question is why does the right see it any other way?

Quite a few Putin fanboys on here I see.
