Pro-Russian forces (trained and supplied by Wagner in exchange for Gold for Prigozhin) are trying to overthrow the Sudanese government in what looks like a civil war.


Russia is a cancer tumor on the face of the planet, should it disappear the world will be so much better everywhere.

I think it might be to late for removing Russia to have any effect on both of these.

Well, magically removing Russia is impossible anyway. It is the emotional thread, remember?

I heard worse than that but this time it starts to come in the linkable form. War crimes are hard to hide in 21th century

Former Russian officer and ardent nationalist Igor Girkin’s newly formed “Club of Angry Patriots” published its manifesto focused on protecting pro-war factions in the Kremlin from possible “sabotage” and “betrayal.” The “Club of Angry Patriots” published its manifesto on April 17 on its newly created Telegram channel, which emphasizes protecting pro-war factions in the Kremlin instead of efforts to win the war in Ukraine.[25] The manifesto claims that unspecified actors who remain in power in Russia have transferred their money and allegiance to the West and may be preparing for a coup and the ”dismemberment” of the Russia Federation. The manifesto likens the Kremlin‘s pro-war and anti-war factions to the fight between the Reds and Whites in the Russian Civil War following the Bolshevik revolution of 1917. The manifesto also claims that Russia is currently fighting the war in a mediocre way and is unable to defeat Ukraine in its current state. ISW previously assessed that Girkin and the “Club of Angry Patriots” may be attempting to advance the political goals of unnamed figures in Russian power structures who want to influence Putin’s decision making through public discourse.[26]

Interesting.  Also in the never ending Russian publical political telenovela Prigozhin is seemingly regaining favor. I really want to know if its real or just way to deflect public attention from failures and those responsible. I haven't heard from someone serious about that arena in a while.

Girkin is the FSB militia commander, the MH-17 guy. Dugin is the weirdo panslavic von Daniken analogue.

Well he's right... but who's red and who's white here? Hint: the reds aren't the pan-Slavist economic libs and social reactionaries.

Girkin is former Russian officer and ardent nationalist, who played a key role in Russian annexation of Crimean and the Donbas since 2014, who is now a prominent pro-war milblogger and has been often quoted in westren media over his strong criticism of Russian strategy in Ukraine.

Prigozhin is a Russian oligarch, the head of wagner group, which seemingly replaced the kadyrov chechens as the blunt tool of the Russian army. Also a pro-War figure and notable critic of Russian strategy. Recently he was in the headlines over due to the public spat with Russian Defense ministry over Bakhmut offensive where wagner is taking the lead, the bombing which killed pro-war millbloger he sponsored in his restaurant, and some claims that he might challenge Putin fore presidency in 2024.

2024 election. That’s certainly going to be an interesting time. I wonder what would happen if all of the people in charge of rigging it decide not to do their jobs anymore.

Meanwhile, in Ukrainian social networks, there is a video of Russians beheading a POW with a knife. (No, I didn't watch. I value my sanity)
As an antidote for inhumanity here's a video of Ukrainians building a checkpoint for cats

I also still can't get over the fact that the USA leaks were not Russian spies or American disinfo. It was just some young lad trying to win an argument for a minecraft server
