Absolute insanity. This is the type of power play shit you read about in text books, yet we saw it all play out live on the Internet.

This was the most hype day ever. They could have gotten away with it too.

Wouldn’t have been good for Ukraine if they’d succeeded, wouldn’t really have changed much, but would have been nice if Putin got what he deserved. Was it ever confirmed why they stopped?

That was the last chance Russia had to come out of this shitheap without critical damage.
Too bad the guy was too dumb to see what surrendering would mean, should have finished the job.
Not sure anything would be different but at least it was a chance for changing the fast track to certain annihilation on which they are still now.
Maybe they will win Ukraine but only after completely destroying it and killing off their young male population and totally blowing up the economy, in the end dooming them.

I wouldn’t be surprised if Yevgeny Prigozhin suddenly reappeared one day. This wasn’t the first time he faked his death. My thoughts are that him, Putin and Lukashenko came up with a deal. Putin saw this for what it was, a rift between two military factions that escalated.
He was traveling to and from Moscow, Africa, Belarus, with no issues prior to his “death”. Wagner was still recruiting for months after his death and they’re still very active. The group is currently managed by his son. Don’t be surprised if he steps out of the shadows some day.
He’s still wanted by the FBI almost 2 years after his “death”.
WE WERE SO CLOSE! GOD DAMMIT PRINGLES WE WERE SO CLOSE

The world was supposed to change that day ðŸ˜
This was going on during my wedding anniversary. My wife kept getting annoyed how I was paying more attention to some “bald loud russian” than her that day. We’ll have many more anniversaries, but to witness a revolution in realtime is once in a lifetime… “revolution” smh.

Guys. Pringles goal was not to overthrow Putin. It was to replace the head of the Russian MOD who was essentially dissolving Wagner.
The problem is when you try and drive on the capital the Head of State can’t help but take it personally.
Plus Putin was out of Moscow within the hour so there wasn’t much getting to Moscow would accomplish when he received no support from any army units.

I hope Putin finds the guy who killed him.

The moron stopped and thought he would live to negotiate. He should have known better than anyone once you started that path there was no stopping ..

The nothing ever happens crowd was eating good once the coup stopped for basically no reason.
