They’re the type to freeze instead of fight or flight

Nice try, monobot glares suspiciously

Rosguardia has hundreds of thousands of internal soldiers. Assuming their allegiance is to the MoD (and at this point there is no way of knowing), I don’t see how Prigozhin could successfully stage the ousting.

If he was really trying to help the Ukrainians the most effective decision would probably be to attack the rear of the Russian lines to allow Ukrainian forces to come through. Wagner units have been off the front for about a month so I don’t think it really has any effect on Ukraines ability to break through the lines without the above scenario happening, but nothing Prigozhin has said leads me to think he’d help Ukraine, as he also stated he plans to return to the Frontlines to help defend the motherland against the west after ousting Shoigu.

It’s honestly so hard to tell what’s happening. Is Prigozin acting in cahoots with Putin to solidify power? Is he being helped by the CIA to institute a coup? Is he just gone nutters and going rogue? Is this just another extreme version of political theatre from him? There are suggestions he’s already started walking back some of the comments. Time will tell.

Incorrect title, he has declared they’re marching (or planning to) march against Shoigu and oust him from the MoD.

In his statement he specifically states that he thinks the MoD has also misled the President. So his argument is that he is he’s trying to help Russia and Putin by getting rid of Shoigu.

FSB has declared a criminal investigation on charges of inciting a coup, and Rosguardia has been put on high alert. Medvedev has stated “all necessary precaution measures have started”.

Will be interesting to see what happens next.

FSB has announced they’ve started a criminal investigation into him.

I wonder if he’s in cahoots with the CIA or something?

More is not better. Also if you think Facebook, Meta or the zuck are good people, you haven’t been paying attention.

Can’t wait for the neolib astroturfing to make it’s way here too

I made a comment earlier that got 7 uplems. You can say I’m kind of a big deal around here.
