Anti corruption protests in Russia, Navalny arrested

[The Emperor]

To be fair, Ringpriest is a very level headed and reasonable poster. He has defended Russia and has been critical of NSA and the us foreign policy for years.

His problem is the trump election and how Russia gets blamed for it.

Well then I take back that accusation about him spewing anti Russian stuff, the fact that he supported Skroe's tinfoil point made me blind to facts for a split second.

I find the pattern of inverse relationship of quality of life to strong oppositions quite interesting. You'd think countries with high median incomes and such would have a hard time of forming powerful oppositions due to having to rely on hypothetical ammo instead of actually solid one and that actually demonstrably relatively low current median income would be the BiS legendary of OPS (opposition-per-second).
