Back in the Cold War, this was called “Kremlinology.” It was the reading of smoke signals and tea leaves and goat guts to figure out what the Ruskies were up to.
It was said to be akin to theology, in humanity’s attempt to figure out God — cept that theology tended to be a bit more useful.
I find modern Kremlinology to be about as convincing as my daily horoscope...
Prigozhin is also known for running Russia’s infamous internet troll farms.
Are we not also a kleptocracy?
A revelation or Limited Hangout?

“Prigozhin is also known for running Russia’s infamous internet troll farms.”
Many of whom, I would wager, are here on FR.
And those who wish Putin dead do not think ahead as to what would replace him. It could be worse. A lot worse.
I’ve never heard of the guy, but I expect we’ll be hearing a lot more about him…
Story of RuSSia. Get rid of one tyrant, get one worse. Such is the history of a country that doesn’t even comprehend liberty.
It’s more likely just one person with multiple accounts trying to appear like a chorus when it’s really just one voice.
“And those who wish Putin dead do not think ahead as to what would replace him. It could be worse. A lot worse”.
You are absolutely right.
Wagner Group is all over Africa.
But let’s not forget about what the previous administration did to them:

And I would bet that under careful analysis, the same things are happening again. If anyone is under the impression that US personnel aren’t on the ground, “assisting” Ukraine, I have a bridge to sell you.
“And those who wish Putin dead do not think ahead as to what would replace him. It could be worse. A lot worse.”
I don’t wish him dead. I wish him out of office, though. And, as for his replacement, he or she may be better or worse. Who knows?
Yeah, there are those, as well.
“and a host of online trolls.”
Many of them post on here.
so you’re saying there’s no normal people in Russia?
every one is a bloodthirsty warmonger?
So, you're okay with worse. Someone with a nuke football that is worse, you're okay with? This makes no logic. You're using a personal hatred to overrule your thinking. Similar to what liberals do about Trump. They have no logic to hate Trump.
Putin invaded Ukraine because he was forced to by the NATO option. The Deep State set a trap for Putin. He was screwed either way. If you want to wish somebody of office, it's Biden, the JCOS who support this NATO move and NATO busybodies.
