Illusions: Where do you find them?
And the usual idiom in speech is: to tell it like it is.
tell it the way he sees it, it is a variation on that.
If Progressive is a fact it should be pointed out is it does not mean any particular thing. Rest of the paragraph is clearly written in present tense. This is because all the verbs appear in present tense.
There is a certain reality that tells us what
we know like it is. Who tells us everything? Every time he tells the story, for example.
Simple present mean a general statement and therefore not a specific one.

Where will the public enter into the ‘Putin vote’?
I could not find it in the FT but I suspect 1) It is the same sentence or a part thereof and 2) The full sentence in the FT is most probably very clear
