Regardless of the usage of distrust, it is highly likely that MSM has in some way altered perceptions about Putin for a considerable number of people on this site, let alone outside this site
Oh, absolutely. I bet the vast majority even on this board still believes Putin personally murdered journalists and laid down them explosives back in the 1990s himself, or at least, pushed the button. The conditioning is very strong, I'm just sayin' that "don't love Putin" doesn't necessarily constitute an unhealthy perspective like I just described. But I guess that's just me being a pedantic cunt!
I don't love Putin, but I sure respect the guy.
Perhaps American media has led to this distrust
Why would it be distrust? He said he doesn't love Putin, that could mean almost anything.
