Another sign of rigging is that 2024 election results peaked at round figures, Shukshin wrote. This distribution of results looks like a saw on graphs, which led to the nickname “Putin’s saw.”

    This is a very dumb comment. The only party who could actually compete with putin was the communist. Navalny didnt get 3%

      Probably because he was imprisoned. It’s hard to say what his results would have been, but a lot of experts said just by virtue of being the only opponent he could have beat Putin in a fair election.

        This community is very averse to facts, and those “experts” are very stupid. Propaganda is all you feed on

          While they’re definitely wrong in ignoring the communist party’s value as a signal for disliking the regime/as a protest vote, you’re also feeding on propaganda if you think Navalny and his smart voting campaign weren’t a very large movement.

          If Navalny wasn’t a threat to the regime, then Putin wouldn’t have hounded him for a decade.

            Putin might not have killed him, but he most definitely made him unable to compete in the election one way or the other.

          Russian people tend to disagree with you on this one. At least those I’ve met and read the work of.

          A friend put it to me that ‘the death of navalny was so hard because he was the entire face of resistance. Now there isn’t anybody for the people to gather behind.’ (not verbatim at all).

          I agree that .world can be averse to truth, but I think you (and your instance) probably can be too

      FYI In the last elections he passively participated, he got 27% while Putin’s bitch got 51%.

      And we know that in Russia, the second tour almost always ends up not in the favor of the ruling party.
