Is it so? They had changed form of government twice in less than a century. Not just head of state or ruling party, form of government. You assume that because their baseline is miserable they can tolerate a lot but there’s a big difference between living a miserable life unter a totalitarian regime barely affording basic necessities, and all the same but starving.
- trymas 8mo ago> They had changed form of government twice in less than a century. IMHO ruzzia hasn't changed in ~450-500 years since Ivan the Terrible. No matter how they sell their way of governing to international scene - it's always a tzar rulling with iron fist. There were optimistic glimpses that they will grow out of it, but it always returns back to tzar.
- pointlessone 8mo agoIt doesn’t change the fact that people took political action on a massive scale. Both times mostly motivated by unsatisfactory personal circumstance.
