[Edit: As Kamil describes it] the Russian power apparatus is thuggery. It’s a biker gang with nukes. And while Western Democracy hasn’t nearly lived up to the hype, at the very least it is one hell of a lot more lawful. I believe we are at the crux of an existential dilemma. Law or lawless? Provided rights by an imperfect constitution, held accountable by an imperfect judiciary, and progressing forward through imperfect politicians … or held hostage to a cartel of lawless and largely incompetent gangs of thugs and the mafioso who run the show?
