Super interesting. I didn't know about the parachute governors before, but was reminded how Putin himself got into power. Yeltsin made a shocking New Year's speech on December 31st 1999 where he stepped down and announced the largely unknown Putin as the interim president until elections a few months later would be held (which Putin obviously won). This parachute system must be way older than just Putin's regime.

The whole description had me thinking of the Roman political system!! Wealthy elites sent by the Emperors to govern regions they had never been associated with, and largely as a way of greasing palms. History has proven time and again that any government ruled almost entirely by a “strong man”, be it an autocrat, a dictator, or even a monarch, are almost always more susceptible to this kind of chaos during a potential regime change!!

Indeppendent governors were a kind of obstacle for Putin on early stage of dismantling democracy in Russia. In his early days in power they were powerful enough to resist. He replaced them with loyal people one by one, now it's mostly technocrats everywhere, i.e. people who just doing technical work without questions or perosnal ambitions.

I’ve always been slightly confused as to how there isn’t more discontent amongst the locals (besides the repression) but learning about the tax system and the parachutist governors helped put that question to rest. If a civil war does break out, it’s gonna be messy. 6 different factions (at least at the start) all attempting to seize power, resources, and territory? I’d be surprised if secessions DIDN’T happen during it.

@zylaaeria2627 10 ай бұрын

Reason: Political apathy. I have spoken with Russians before over this issue & the reality is that unlike us here in the cozy west, the Russian people have effectively been conditioned to be politically apathetic for many centuries now. Most people really don't care as there is a considerable stigma in Russia that "things will never get better". And really, can you blame them why they feel this way? There is a reason why I personally always refer to Russia as the biggest tragedy in history. Those that could care already fled the country in droves & have no plans to return nor are they outgoing of their nationality. One of the biggest problems this war is going to lead to is the way Russians will be perceived abroad as plunderers & generally not nice people to be around thanks to the delusions of the few shitheads in charge of the government apparatus. Even if they do return, it is not like anyone can really do anything due to the aforementioned apathy & the fact that the state is so heavily repressive. Here in the west, we are so used to speaking our minds but in Russia, getting thrown in a state prison for disobedience is the least of your worries should you be labeled as a dissenter. Soldiers in the front lines have it worse as trying to desert or revolt could lead to the state going after your family. Not to mention that the commissars in the front lines do the old Soviet thing of never leaving the guns easily accessible to the grunts in the trenches. They keep them in separate locations to ensure no one gets any ideas.

Something I try to keep in mind is that from everything I have seen/heard/read, Putin IS genuinely popular with most Russians. While I don't agree with it, they have a vastly different perspective from what we see/hear in Western media, and Putin was the one who pulled them out of their non-stop humiliation in the 90's. That counts for a lot with the average Russian. Plus, they LIKE strongmen.

@kingsandgenerals small hint on pronouncing Russian words. Whenever “o” is not stressed, it is read as “a” in Russian. Also, unlike in English, “r” at the end of the word is never silenced. Say, farmer in English may sound very much like “fama”, but it will be “fermer” with each “r” pronounced clearly in Russian. Therefore the right way to call a man who’s name is spelled like “Igor” is “Egar” (there is also a soft r at the end, which sounds somewhat like an “re” with a very short “e”, but that may be too complicated), not “Ego”.

Im sure Putin already has someone in mind but whether said person is acceptable to powers within and outside Russia is another matter.

Wasn't there reports that Putin had a child he's hidden away in one of his mansions that he is raising up to be the next dictator? Haven't heard anything more about them, so I don't know if such reports are factual.

After all the real reason why Wagner gave up their coup was actually because Putin was going to send Steven his true super weapon to destroy them. He dosen't even have to get up from his chair to destroy everyone
