       @kevinrothrock I’m guessing that “Angry Patriots Club” thing he had going looked too much like a dangerous organised group in the wake of the mutiny.He’s been harshly criticising Putin for ages, so I doubt it’s what he’s actually been saying.

       @kevinrothrock But, Kevin, surely a firebrand with the best interests of his country has never been purged in Russia, because they always consider your ultimate love of the country in these things, right?

       @M_U Even if they throw his still breathing… ehm, corpse to the pigs, nothing of value would be lost really, but this is a good indicator that system is indeed in serious turmoil and they are running out of figures to shift the blame to. Getting rid of diehard warmongers might also be preparation to some "peace talks", but I doubt it'll work so well as it did in 2014-2015 if at all possible.@kevinrothrock

       @m0xee @kevinrothrock Most Strelkov watchers have thought that his enemies in officialdom would have put him in a glass box years ago, right?  The unusual thing is for how long his enemies didn't catch up to him.

       @M_U My opinion on this is that it was mostly for the show, some fronde among the loyal was tolerated as they wanted to keep some figures influential among those with such opinions so it would be easier to make them stomach some hard to swallow decision in case such situation arises, but Prigozhin's endeavour probably made voicing such opinions too dangerous. Maybe he just crossed someone's road for real this time — hard to tell.

       @M_U With this Twitter shit going on I've lost access to a lot of sources of interesting opinions and I may be behind on some topics. Russian language political community on Twitter is unrivaled and no one ever tried to re-establish it elsewhere which is odd as it's a lot safer here, Fedi is probably not even on the radar. Same with Telegram — Matrix would probably be much safer. Smaller user base is likely a significant factor to many 🤷

       @m0xee Russophone twitter was ironically a pleasant place on the whole even as RIA trolls were so damaging and dangerous 2015-2018.  The good old days!
