When Will Russians Turn On Putin?

“If Putin loses this war, the Russian people are going to say 'we don't like a loser, and we particularly don't like a loser who's cost us so much money and so much pain and so many dead bodies' and that will be the end of Putin. But in order to get there, Ukrainians have to win the war," Bill Browder states.

Unfortunately, this is just wishful thinking. Many of the Western nations' leaders want to keep Putin alive and well. They want to do business with Putin. The Biden's family has had very close ties to the Russian oligarchs. They'd rather sacrifice Ukraine than lose Putin's business.

[@koenkeep]

The first revolution in Russia happened in 1905, after a failed war. The Tsar shot protesters outside his own palace, that didn't bring about regime change. The second revolution in Russia happened in 1917, after 3 years of fighting the Austro-German empires, with millions of people dead, famines and no end in sight. This resulted in a civil war, which in turn turned into a communist dictatorship. Then the dictatorship only stopped after 70 years of brutal oppression. And the Soviet Union only fell because its leader signalled he would not use violence. Why does the west think that the russians will quickly turn against putin? The russians are not nearly suffering enough. It's the one talent the Russians have, they are well versed in suffering and have not the same level of trust and engagement in other Russians. The revolution is not coming.

[@joevignolor4u949]

You are probably right. When there is a revolution brewing the big question is who will lead the charge? It's fine if you do it and everyone else follows you. But if they don't and you end up out there all by yourself then it can get pretty lonely.

I also hope that Parkinson's disease quickly ravages Putin. If you are familiar with Parkinson's disease or at least saw how Michael J. Fox and Muhammad Ali went into neurological decline, Putin VERY clearly is secretly fighting PD without publicizing it to anyone else. At the 4:03 time mark of ths MSNBC video, where Putler is grabbing onto the desk corner to stabilize himself (which he has NEVER done while sitting at his desk in previous years), and also other physical mannerisms during the past two months, Putler clearly has PD. Go watch longer videos of Putler talking to Sergei Shoigu at his desk this past Thursday. Any nurse or doctor familiar with both Parkinson's disease and Putler over the years will tell you that his physical movements during this year just scream PD compared to previous years.

Their actions have been rational and predictable, and I would argue that it’s only the irrationality and unpredictable of NATO strategists (in conjunction with the Ukranian state) that clouds their view from this. I understand that the United States, NATO and her allied liberal-democracies are the morally-reprehensible menaces of the region: even globally. I also understand this to be a common sentiment across the absolute-majority of Russians, which makes sense considering that I am an Orthodox Christian and that Russia is and has historically been an Orthodox Christian nation.

If those near the top reach a tipping point where they conclude the leader is dragging them down, they would be the ones to act.

I have watched Mr. Browder on several interviews and he always says to stop buying natural gas and oil from Russia well that’s easier said than done since you simply don’t change supplies like you do with a mobile phone supplier. There are not that many gas and oil producing countries plus it’s takes years to prepare infrastructure and lots of investment. To ship these products isn’t so easy especially since it’s takes weeks or months and from what I have read there is very few vessels free since they are nearly all in use. Plus not all ports are not set up to unload these products and many countries are landlocked so they face additional issues. In an ideal world I agree stop funding Russia but it won’t happen in days weeks or months. I do agree when he says the change must come within but that to will take time.
