This is completely wrong, because of course Putin absolutely does hurt people. He ordered the invasion of Ukraine and the killing of Ukrainians. His forces deliberately target civilians, or massacre them, like in Bucha. His actions have also killed innocent people from other countries, such as those on board flight MH17, who were killed by a Russian missile. He also orders the murders of people he doesn't like, such as Alexander Litvinenko and Alexei Navalny (the latter's murder being unsuccessful, but nevertheless ordered by the Kremlin). And one such assassination attempt, on Sergei Skripal, killed an innocent British woman, Dawn Sturgess. So no, it is clearly untrue to say that Putin can't hurt someone, unfortunately.
Alexei Navalny, the one who was too far right for the Russian right wingers? The one who compared Muslims to roaches and implied that he would hunt them? The one who openly claims that he lied to gain support? The United States created Russia with Boris Yeltin, and purposely left it unstable. Putin simply fixed the system that the Americans gave him, without returning to socialism. If the USSR was still up, none of this would've happened
