The rebellion ended before we could even find a hashtag.
While true, the reputational hit for Putin is irreversible. His days are probably numbered.
Prigozhin’s ability to successfully execute a coup may have been tenuous, but this will send a message to others that it is possible… Afterall, they did take Rostov-on-Don and got within 200km of Moscow… This will embolden others.
Serious question: what others? How many other Russians have a devoted private army to do their bidding? Are there any others?
If not, I think another coup attempt would need to come from the inside. Specifically, I think someone would need to commandeer the existing Russian army.
It’ll come from within the army. Priggy failed because he could not find enough support. As soon as someone comes along who does, it’ll be game over for Putler.
I’m almost positive he got talked out of it with words about being on the same side and this is what our enemies want and don’t shed Russian blood and on and on
Sharks will smell blood in the water.
Not to mention the fact that Wagner rolled through with zero resistance up to the point they turned around. They even had police vehicles in their convoy.
I noticed lemmygrad.ml was pretty quiet yesterday lol.
As Gil Scott Heron may have said if he was alive today, The Revolution Will Not Be Hashtagged.
It will NOT feature Bullwinkle and Julia, that’s for sure.
Maybe Swan Lake on loop though.
Liked what Kasparov said “it’s a mafia not a state”
