Incredible that he just kind of tried to re-integrate like nothing ever happened after the mutiny incident, but I guess once you do something like that and you're an international political figure it's impossible to make yourself disappear and you're probably going to get got regardless of what you do. RIP to a true madlad.
I like the idea that this might be him faking his own death, possibly with cooperation from Putin. My money would still be on a simple political assassination, but I do love a properly convoluted conspiracy theory.
"No, they expect one of us in the wreckage brother."
"The fire rises?"
Yes!

Sounds like they broke two as well.
If you fly, don't all fly together.
a
❌ secure the Ministry of the Interior
❌ don't fly
❌ don't go to a second location
He did a mutiny against Putin(y) and now he's dead, what are the odds?
Damn I jumped the gun and didn't realize @InevitableSwing@hexbear.net the news king already posted. In @Finger@hexbear.net 's absence: no more half measures waltuh
I just got lucky.
I made myself think of a song: Just Got Lucky.
Surprised it took this long tbh.
And he just tried to...go about his life normally after openly considering a mutiny? Not a bright guy unless this is some sort of stunt and he didn't actually get killed.
Wait, who's piloting the plane? My god! It's the ghost of kiev!
What are the lottery numbers next Im gonna be fancy and buy me 200 dollars worth of groceries when I win
How unexpected. People are saying that the actual Russian anti-air shot him down, that is very YOLO of Putin.
I'd do it, if his plane flew near a loyal air defense unit and I was sure he was on board. What doesn't make sense is why the guy was setting foot anywhere near Russia? Why would you do that?!
Well he had to oversee his successful Moscow restaurants of course. Running a PMC doesn't pay all the bills!
I think this is the one assassination that nobody is going to start anything over
The real crazy thing is that 9 other people felt ok getting on a plane with him.
If he was actually on board I think this comes as a surprise to absolutely nobody here. The only confusing thing in the last few months is how much he's been parading around as if everything is normal.
I think we should all just realise that Prigo was a complete and utter fool. It's the only explanation I have for the world's worst attempted coup in the first place, and for his behaviour afterwards.
his wanted level went down after he left the search zone, but the boundary on the map put him right back up to 6 stars when he crossed it. happens to the best of us
ShowPutin is a professional. He doesn't cut corners. These types of things take time, there are procedures. Paperwork to file.
He had literally no support, from anyone. Zero allies. It was an absolutely whacky thing to do no matter how you look at it. Compared to other genuinely powerful coup attempts that have failed it's clownshit, look at the gang of eight for example, that was a genuinely powerful coup attempt that failed. When you compare the two it's fucking weird that he ever thought it was a good idea, that he and others planned it for presumably weeks/months beforehand and at no point thought to themselves that they probably shouldn't do it without allies.
One of the 10 rules for coups is never get on a helicopter or private plane.
Instigating a coup just generally is not a good idea if you value a long life
The fuck is that convoluted shit, use this streamlined version instead: Prigozhin’t
Inting is what happens in League, and he may be a lot of things including dead, but don't you dare disrespect him by calling him a G*mer.
