The libs of mastodon are having a field day with this one, crying about how he was such a hero despite knowing fuck-all about anything.
cool
Looks like protests have erupted since this happened, with some protest signs in english, and people are getting arrested too. Does anyone know what’s going on with that?
Sounds like a spontaneous opportunistic NED/CIA/western-billionaire-NGO colour revolution attempt to me.
That was my immediate thought too. The English signs threw me off the most, it’s not like they need to reach a wider audience so what gives? It’s very fishy…
Signs in English used to be quite widespread in such gatherings. Same with pro-EU "protests" in Georgia, Armenia and back in 2014 in Ukraine.
Yeah and the smell of money was always following them right to the Washington.
English signs can mean two things:
) to notice them and do something.I reckon that neither is going to convince any significant number of Russians of anything other than the fact that these libs are making fools of themselves.
Does anyone know what going on with that?
Not much. I found numbers from 55 to 400 arrested country-wide in two days. They'll get 20 days and a fine at the very worst. I think you can surmise how widespread and consequential these protests are. As I saw someone say on TG Navalny's hamsters remaining in the country can probably be caught on one camera shot from a drone if they were in one place.
So a small group going feral for Western propaganda? Very cool…
