This doesn’t sound great.

      Whole lotta WTF. But I’m thinking, if this guy with his own private army was vanquished so easily…there was a rumor his family was threatened.

        He wanted to capture shoigu and didn’t manage to do it. Probably failed to garner as much support as he thought he would and had to call it off.

        You don’t plan a coup for 9 months and not secure your family, common

    This whole shitshow is cathartic because it reminds me of my ex’s family, so it’s like I’m watching their toxic behaviors playout as the fight each other.

    At moments like this, remember: There are liberals watching this unfold and thinking “Hey, I hope a bloodbath happens”.

      It’s hard to feel sorry for Russia, which is shoving its own arm into the meat grinder. You want to avoid bloodshed? Easy, just fuck off back to where you came from.

      Oh yes, because conservatives are known for their compassion.

      Unless you’re poor, queer, have the wrong religion or race.

      Or are you actually a tankie and pro-russia because they once called themselves communist?

      I don’t mind a turmoil in russia anymore, as long it’s helping Ukraine to regain their lost territories. I feel kinda sorry for the normal people in russia but on the other hand it feels like most of them don’t care or are pro Putin.
