- jnsaff2 4y agoSure is terrible, just weird that russians themselves just take it and don't stand up.
- medo-bear 4y agoum they did, in 1917, like no one else, ever. too bad the whole thing took a wrong turn a decade later
- jnsaff2 4y agoSo they tried once a century ago, then gave up? How is this different from what I was asking? Nothing is done, violence is tolerated and glorified at home and exported to neighbors too.
- mikeyouse 4y agoThere have been many internal reform attempts in Russia, almost universally the leaders of each have been assassinated or imprisoned. It’s a very dangerous place to protest, especially now that they’ve invaded Ukraine and legalized mobilization.
- jnsaff2 4y agoI have a suspicion that the siloviki insiders are okay with the system as is. Plenty of stealing to be done at all levels. The others still take it without doing anything about it.

- foverzar 4y agoHonestly, not too much people take it here as seriously as you guys somewhere over there. Most just get skeptical of such stories the older they get, and this is unfortunately a consequence of personal empirical evidence. You expect the truth but instead get a story. As you grow older the story starts to feel rough, doesn't add up to experience and at some point turns into a complete Orwellian bullshit. Stories get treated as tabloid bs used as propaganda, and quite often this is hardly too far from the truth.
