THE PEOPLE are protesting against Moscow and being dispersed, suppressed, beaten and arrested in Bashkirostan. This is the first event of this kind since Wagner's mutiny in June 2023.

Video. Commentary.

This is just the start. It will be WWI all over again if Putin keeps sending Russian men to die in Ukraine.

Dagestan and Buryatia are next.

In Russia, WWI ended with the Bolsheviks replacing Tsarist tyranny with Communist tyranny ... and proceeding to murder tens of millions ... including several million Ukrainians.

Predictions of reprisals against rioting villagers sounds eerily like J6. See Konstantin’s comments around 22:00.

At the start of WW I new recruits were giddily happy about going to the front. No such situation now.

In bourgeois terms, it was a war between the Allies and Germany. In Bolshevik terms, it was a war between the Allied and German upper classes - and which of them won was of total indifference. My task was to organize defeat, so as to hasten the onset of revolution. I enlisted under the name of Petrov. The party looked to the peasant conscript soldiers - many of whom were wearing their first real pair of boots. When the boots had worn out, they'd be ready to listen. When the time came, I was able to take three whole battalions out of the front lines with me - the best day's work I ever did. But for now, there was nothing to be done. There were too many volunteers. Most of it was mere hysteria.

Doctor Zhivago?

[blitz128]

Non ethnic muscovites protesting against their masters. There is a reason that internal “security” is second only to military in Russian budget and like military has seem massive increase

But hey I hear muskova is paradise

[BenLurkin]

Is that near Dontgivafukastan?

[dfwgator]

Correct.

[Eleutheria5]

No man is an island,
Entire of itself.
Each is a piece of the continent,
A part of the main.
If a clod be washed away by the sea,
Europe is the less.
As well as if a promontory were.
As well as if a manor of thine own
Or of thine friend’s were.
Each man’s death diminishes me,
For I am involved in mankind.
Therefore, send not to know
For whom the bell tolls,
It tolls for thee.

You want an omelet, you have to break eggs. Stompity stompity. SMASH! CRASH! BASH! Take that, you counterrevolutionary eggs! The omelet? Oh. Oops. Uh oh.

These are Bashkorti protesting in Bashkortostan. The woman screaming in the video for the police to stop beating them was screaming partly in Bashkort, partly in Russian.

The cracks start

[NorthMountain]

Bad as he was, Stalin wasn’t the Mass Murder Champion of the XX Century ... that was Mao Tse Tung.

Not sure whether Hitler or Pol Pot gets ‘credit’ for murdering the greatest fraction of the affected population.

[DUMBGRUNT]

—” It will be WWI all over again if Putin keeps sending Russian men to die in Ukraine.”

And like WW1 Russia will experience a “Turnip Winter”, for many of the same reasons.

Including the Schlieffen Plan, another quick special military operation.

And today the Russian Federation has more cracks than a mile of bad road.

“Alsynov has also in the past criticised military mobilisation in the region as “genocide” of the Bashkir people, a Turkic race closely related to the Tatars which inhabits the southern Ural mountains.”

Not exactly Putin’s Muscovites.

[Reily]

He did get the silver in the genocide Olympics!
Poor old Hitler got the bronze.

[Eleutheria5]

And in the decades preceding Mao and Stalin’s respective ascensions, the “Young Turks” killed off a million and a half Armenians, Lord Kitchener starved and mistreated to death countless Boer women, children and their “colored” servants in South African concentration camps, and the Spaniards literally starved to death countless Mambi rebels in Cuban concentration camps. The Susquehano and Delaware were both bludgeoned to death, the first after the French and Indian War, and the second after the Revolutionary War. In prior millennia, the ancient Israelites did for the ancient Canaanites. Genocide’s been around as long as there have been genos to get cided.

Stalin, Lenin, Hitler Mao and Pol Pot did it in the twentieth century, a supposedly more enlightened time. So they used more modern methods, and did it in cold blood. That’s what makes their sins unpardonable.
