Criticism from Russia is pretty damning. Putin knows a lot about rigged elections.

He also knows a lot about making baseless claims with absolutely no evidence for and a ton against and getting away with it because people don't know how to be skeptics.

Claims aren't entirely baseless here though.

Fine, there are a few videos showing what appears to be the vote counters tampering with the papers (appearing to write on them, moving a paper from the top of one pile underneath papers of the other, shit like that)

I personally think they're a bit nonsense, and the Yes voters (and there are some) who are calling fraud are clutching at straws.

A recount probably wouldn't hurt and the margin was pretty close in some places.

Could you explain Orange Order insanity to those who know nothing about it?

Protestant group usually better known for stirring up shit in Northern Ireland. Fond of waving their dicks at Catholics who are still ruled by an Anglican throne.

Not as familiar with them stirring up shit in Scotland (which is only 15% Catholic).
Called the Orange Order because of their association with William of Orange (Dutch Protestant monarch who deposed Scottish Catholic James II as King of England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland.)

No, but it still has everything to do with "Protestants pwned you Papists m8"

James II Stuart was the last Catholic monarch of Britain, defeated and deposed by William of Orange at the Battle of the Boyne in 1690. It's the annual commemoration of that battle that typically stirs shit up when they go marching through Catholic neighborhoods in N. Ireland.

They've typically had close ties to Scotland (because a number of the Protestant landowners in Ireland were migrated Scots), but are strongly Unionist, so they're strongly anti-independence.

They were strong opponents of bilingualism and Catholicism in Canada, and triggered a number of riots in New York in the 1800's. On the whole, they're anachronistic, sectarian wankers IMHO.
