    Back in the old days we would make people disappear when we thought they might be working with the Russians.

      I keep hearing old folks talking about the good old days, maybe disappearing Russian agents is what they want to come back 🤷‍♂️

        I was just a kid back then, but I understood what needed to be done.

    He’s an unwitting russian agent. A useful idiot.

    Was his wife with him? If not, she should be concerned about what activities were planned for after the ballet.

      @Virginicus @lusterko it is there because they told it to be there. it is watching ballet because they told it to watch ballet. it does not have agency if its own, it doesn’t even understand the concept.

        Yeah… my suspicion is that someone wanted him seen there. It doesn’t really impact him vis-à-vis his audience, but it does a certain amount of flexing for the regime

    We don’t believe “A Telegram channel said” when it’s pro-russian bullshit (rightfully so), so we shouldn’t believe “A Telegram channel said” when it fits our world view either. Just saying.
