I wish them the best of luck. Not that they have any chance of success but the more damage they cause to the Russian army, the better

For everyone just tuning in: This show is notorious for having bad season finales.

Take it with a grain of salt, people, none of the trustworthy sources confirmed any of that - just a couple of Ukrainian outlets (understandable as psyop) and, well, yahoo news and the like.

As a Russian living in Russia and, obviously, closely following all the shit show, it does not seem like Wagner is going to do anything.

Then again, I'm not sure about shit after 24 Feb 2022.

I'll believe it when I see it.

Honest at this point I wouldn't even blink if Prigozhin popped up in the future to tell us they faked their deaths.

To be clear, I believe that he's dead (and that it was probably an assassination by Putin), but so many other outrageous things have happened already little surprises me.

Fucken do it then

Doubtful. They are mercenaries and won't be getting paid anymore. Mercenaries have no allegiance to anybody.

March on Moscow 2, Electric Boogaloo.

It would be so ironic if the plane crash was entirely an accident and not planned in any way, but no one believes it because of Putins history. And if they kill him for something he wasn’t actually involved in because of his past crimes ruining his credibility it would be oh-so-sweet

Here we go again.

It will end not differently than last time.

When they had their leader, they might have had a chance to taking down Putin. Maybe. Slim chance, but a chance. Now they are fucked.

Still would be nice to put a hurt on the Russian military.

My Russian friend pointed out to me that Prigozhin was actually on his way to see Putin when he got shot down.

I mean let the fascist kill the fascist ig

They should join up with the Ukrainians.

As long as they’re not killing Ukrainians, then I guess yeah, go do whatever…

This is a greater overall danger than many of you seem to realize. Their leader was a face and figurehead, the real power of Wagner mercenaries lies with the lieutenants. Without him, they are likely to splinter and become more brutal. Some are likely to be hired by the anti-Putin oligarchs, while others may align with Putin. This may result in Russia having to pull out of Ukraine, but that's not the end of this. Even if Putin is slammed out of power, that just results in an internal power struggle with deadly consequences. Those will not stay inside their borders.

God I hope they go through with this.

because it went so well before

The less wagnerites operating on Ukrainian soil the better. The less wagnerites helping illegal migrants to cross Polish-Belarusian border the better. The less wagnerites the better.
