That feeling when tanks are in the Lipetsk region outside of Moscow
And the coup you ordered will be there faster than your pizza
That feeling when the Russian military starts to defect
Like the 217th Guards Parachute Regiment that just sided with Prigozhin
The entire world atm
I wondered if there might be a bit of that going on, once #Putin made it clear that #Prighozin is not acting as his internal fixer?
I worry because Prigozhin is a sociopath. When the dust settles, let's hope it settles within Russia. Let's hope whoever gains the upper hand has some interest in a civil society and democracy. I wonder what Xi Jinping is thinking about his friendship without limits. I wonder about the vacuum the Wagner group will create in Africa and, to a lesser degree, Syria and who will fill it.
@dieselleech it’s Russia so…
No.

As I quoted in another post.
On the "uncommitted," who weren't even allowed in Hell but condemned to spend eternity in Hell's vestibule...
"The darkest places in hell are reserved for those who maintain their neutrality in times of moral crisis."

@flexghost Exactly, in fact the more worrying part of it is, what will happen after this... it will not necessarily become more stable at all with factions fighting for rule.... a Russian revolution scenario comes to mind.
Might even be a watershed moment for the mere existence of the Russian Federation.
The demise of it would be the best possible outcome to once and for all settle the security risk this formerly imperialist state still poses in the world. Especially the atomic heritage...
@xs4me2 here’s the new guy. Same as the old guy.
Prigozhin might be looking for a top spot but under Putin. And if he wants the whole thing then he’s just as evil.
Of course, not the scrupulous KGB background, but perhaps even more evil…
However as with Russian leadership you will never know… dangerous as ever.
Reminiscent of what tfg, Flynn, Prince (Eric), Bannon, et al., had hoped for on #J6.
