We’re not sure who managed to dig this one up, or why it even exists for that matter, but back in 2013, Business Insider published 39 photos that prove Vladimir Putin is the most bad-a** leader in the world. The tweet and the story are still up, and Business Insider has added a note now that people have found it:
Editor’s note: This story was first published in 2013 and does not meet Insider’s current editorial standards. For full transparency, we have decided not to take this article down. Please contact [email protected] if you would like to flag concerns about any of Insider’s content.
It met their editorial standards back in 2013. Replace Putin with Kamala Harris and this could be a Teen Vogue article.
