Russia’s Wagner mercenary group founder, Yevgeny Prigozhin, has said the Kremlin’s justifications for invading Ukraine were based on lies.

This is crazy. Perhaps a moment of self reflection? I am very interested to see where this goes. Somethings gotta give. I’d feel, in my bones, that I was dying for nothing, if I was a Russian soldier. Then I look around and realize everyone feels the same and we have guns and military equipment. Maybe it’ll spark something larger.

Sorry if thats how it came across.
I realize this guy is just another warlord, trying to save his own ass, but the people around him and below him are just people who don’t want to die, but need some kind of reassurance, even if its based on a bad person doing self serving things, sometimes that’s all it takes in a situation that sucks, to tip a domino. One potential opening.
I’m not really sure how to unromanticize life tbh. We’re talking about based human nature here. Whether you like to admit it or not, is largely dictated by emotions. It could go any number of ways.
I am not there.

Thanks for having this discussion with me, and I will try to be more mindful of the details, when I get up on my soapbox (: I really do appreciate you bringing it to my attention for what it’s worth.
Oh I agree completely, anyone in a position of power in that situation, is highly likely to be unfit for the job, by my standards. I’m not a nazi, this whole thing is fkd up, and I sure as hell don’t want one evil replaced with another flavor of evil. Tbh, all I know is that i feel for the people stuck in the meat grinder, and I personally do not know how to make sweeping changes to how we treat eachother, so I can only hope for extremely incremental changes. I’m not saying this is one I want, but, what I want is easily impossible to really attain, and I’m not sure what exactly the appropriate action is. The people I’d want to take charge, frankly, will never be in that position. They’re all too busy trying to survive.
