Getting some real "Kim Jong-un has died and will be replaced by his sister who is Satan in disguise" vibes here. Will believe it when I see something official from Russia.
Hahahaha fuck I forgot all about that "news story"
Didn't they report it on two separate weeks too? So pathetic.
Aw, and I was looking forward to getting sacrificed to Daddy Lenin to maintain the Redway. Will I get to serve the intergalactic union some other way?
Someone said a thing! News at 11!
I was half expecting it to be a report from Zenz.
He's served his purpose for the rich elite in Russia. 110 individuals own over 40% of all wealth in that country. He did his job making them richer while US media kept painting him out as this Bond villain and like some genius interfering with our government. Russia has been transformed into a wild wild west of capitalism since the fall of the USSR.
Yeah it really can't be overstated just how much shit Russia is in because of Putin. He essentially made money laundering and scamming 100% legal.
The only thing that's worse than capitalism is completely unregulated capitalism.
The thing is russia is in a better spot than it was after the fall. Putin was a stabilizing force.
Also because Yeltsin government was incompetent in addition to corrupt.
could you imagine they did, tell no one who's replacing Putin, then have a sudden and unplanned inauguration and he just walks out onto a balcony over the people..porkies shit themselves worldwide
Some former Soviet commisar who was a thirty something when the USSR disolved takes Putin's place. He takes the stage for his first speech as President of Russia.
"Friends, it is now time to put an end to the thirty-year mistake."
NYpost sucks ass. a friend of mine was in a bad nypost article and they misrepresented the fuck out of it. obviously I cannot go into detail, but it’s amazing how transparently shit they are when they report something close to you,
Libs are gonna be insufferable about this
"He couldn't get his candidate DRUMF elected so he GAVE UP!!!1"
he's pissed that our troll operation didnt elect trump, we should've convinced more people to stay home for him
Wait, is that what we were doing? I've just been sharing borscht recipes with old ladies on Pinterest
who cares, under glorious communism we actually pay the lazy workers more
If you want, here's a Russian blog on the topic from Nov 3 citing a video from Oct 30. The video shows Putin moving his hands and feet a lot, which the video interprets as "he's on drugs lol", but the blog says are symptoms of Parkison's. The video is sped-up, which makes it a bit difficult to judge whether he actually moves weirdly. There's also a 2015 BBC article speculating whether Putin's hands' movement while walking was a symptom of Parkinson's or a result of KGB training to carry a gun.
It's possible he really does have Parkison's - people get sick. We'll see soon enough if that's the case.
The source is pretty suspect, but may have privileged info. The "political scientist"/historian, Valeriy Solovei, is a nationalist, who was "fired" (his contract wasn't renewed) from the prestigious Moscow International Relations University last year for "anti-government propaganda". He might be an idiot looking for attention, but giving his previous high position he might have contacts with elite circles.
if that really happens, the infighting between people in putin's inner circle is going to be spectacular
Haven't a couple of oligarchs been murdered recently? Might be someone cleaning house.
