A mock-pet name for the Russian dictator Vladimir Putin, used to underline the absurdity of treating a KGB-trained revanchist warmonger like a misunderstood poodle. Most often used with heavy irony to emphasize the West’s naive appeasement or to ridicule the infantilization of a regime engaged in systemic repression, foreign invasions, and weaponized nostalgia for the empire of evil.
Derived from “Putin” + the puerile duplicity of Western leaders pretending a dead-eyed autocrat just needs a hug.

Pooty-Poot is at it again, rewriting history and jailing artists. Must be another one of those ‘traditional values’ days in Moscow.
