  1. You raise a whole raft of questions though. Who are these sources? What is their track record for reliability? Doppelgängers may exist, but that doesn’t mean they exist because of Putin’s absence or death? Moreover, what is the advantage of keeping this myth of Putin being alive going? Surely, Putin’s death would present the oligarchy with an opportunity for a reset with the west? A change of policy and to sue for peace in Ukraine? They could withdraw and put in a new leader with policies that could rescue Russia’s standing in the world, and their beleaguered economy? So I ask, WHY? I cannot see any advantage to it. Like flat Earthers, when you ask them, why would anyone want to spread the sphere narrative? To what advantage? They never have an answer to that. Can you give us links to your sources, so we can look for ourselves? Putin would, if anything, find it helpful for the rumour to spread in the west, that he might be dead, because his whole approach to information is inspired by Stalin’s, where the public just can’t be sure about what is true. He wants us to throw up our hands and just say, “Well, I don’t know.” In summary, tell us what you think Russia could gain from keeping up the illusion? And show us your sources to examine for ourselves, please?
