Russian @RT_Deutsch is mere propaganda.

Reality: 60.000
Claim: "some arrests, at least 15"
Reality: 500-1000
Pro-Kremlin newspaper claims many young people attended Sunday's anti-corruption rally "in order to get more likes on their social networks"

#Voronenkov's Murder: #Russia Will Regret Turning to the ‘Dark Side’
My thoughts for @MoscowTimes

"A revolt of schoolkids & students" is how one Russian paper today describes Sunday's protests. "The kindergarten revolution" says another.
Russian film director Alexander Sokurov criticises violent response to protests, says government is afraid to talk to young people.
In leaked classroom video, Russian university lecturer denounces his students as “freaks” for protesting corruption.

Russia is in the midst of a massive "brain drain"...anyone what is well educated or has a solid well trained/experienced blue collar background is desperately trying to get travel visas to EU...WHERE when they arrive they asked immediately for Residence Permits as "they "ain't going back home any time soon"....

Russia is strong. Russia is respected. Russia could be brought down by some pimply teens who watched a YouTube video

IMPORTANT read for the coming months...as these demos have caught even the attention of US Congress....
Does anyone of the few people readind this thread ever noticed that recent anti-corruption protrsts targeted Medvedev, not Putin? Any guesses why is it so?
Haeresis est maxima opera maleficarum non credere.
Medvedev is as corrupt as Putin is...and is a rather easy target......so he is getting fed to the lions to distract from Putin being responsible for the corruption....as he could if he wanted to actually crack down but then the entire government...security services....state owned businesses and generally the entire society is corrupt....
So where does one actually start??

#Faced with more unsanctioned protests this Sunday, Russia is getting back to basics, blocking websites left & right.

Reminds me of the 68s and the slogan "all power to the people"....
VIDEO: Today truck drivers tried to protest in #Dagestan. They were surrounded by OMON, Rosgvardia & army vehicles.

Solid article but sorry in Russian....
Brilliant Lilia Shevtsova grasps how "Putin generation" rebelled against Putin's regime in Russia's Ides of March

Arguably the video of the day: a violinist who took part in Sunday's protests is detained during rehearsals
https://tvrain.ru/teleshow/videoofth...m_term=431287#
Rather nice how other musicians tell the policeman: we don't have that many violinists. why do you have to take him away?
For those that do not speak Russian ...if at first a pop up screen comes up click on the bottom left small bar in the pop up window....
