Putin claims he’s cancelling public celebrations over safety fears. The truth is more humiliating: With even nationalist pro-war bloggers criticising Putin’s actions in Ukraine, his desperation and paranoia are growing

  5. “In Russia, there are massive public processions on 1 May for Labour Day and military parades on 9 May for Victory Day, a holiday commemorating the Soviet victory over Nazi Germany.

    Russia’s biggest trade union cancelled its traditional Labour Day demonstrations because of the “heightened risk of terrorist activity”, while regions near the Ukrainian border called off Victory Day parades so as to “not provoke” the Ukrainian army.”

    Summary: Putin the dictator has gone insane and his paranoia keeps telling him “everyone is your enemy now, do not let anyone freedom to celebrate anything because they can have intents to kill you”.

  6. The only good thing to come out of this war is that it finally exposes Putin and his henchmen for the idiots they really are.

    Everyone used to think Putin was some kind of political mastermind, but turns out he’s just an idiot with far too much power.

    It sucks that he did manage to destroy Ukraine and that it’s going to take them decades to recover from it (if at all), but that’s the problem when dealing with idiots, they will eventually do something seriously dumb, and it often ends up ruining someone else’s lives.

  7. The great fear of all dictators is that one day they are praised as gods and the next day they might be slaughtered by their own followers.
