To be fair, he has admitted that he was wrong about that.

I mean, what else could he have done? Ignore it?

He admited it in the most petty way, and only because the fact that russia actually invaded Ukraine was impossible to weasle out of, or paint it in a different light.

He's done more than you're doing right now in admitting he was wrong. You're doubling down.

Are you an American? Because Americans have always laughed at Russia for being "all bark, no bite".

You are worse than Hasan for that, because at least Hasan is rallying people against these corrupt leaders, the elite, the rich, displaying their evil and so on, while the only thing you are doing is trying to make his job harder, which means you are protecting and helping the elite class.
