. . . how come they're free to travel now?
So one opposition leader was killed and the other was prohibited from running? Oh yeah - weren't those the guys who were polling around 2% - 3% each? And don't they have people arrested and in custody for the murder?
BTW, do you think any of the numbers in the meme below might have had anything to do with Putin's vote margin? Do you think if we had a leader in the West who had these kinds of numbers, we might be favorably disposed to vote for him?
Follow Ups:
...of communist rule in Russia, you will recognize many different periods. There were even periods when people were allowed to travel nearly freely, and when they were put in jail for such ideas. There were periods of starvation, and then period of free enterprise, ruthless purges and then some thaw.
But times are changing, and with them the specifics of the rule. What remains constant, however, are two things: the authoritarian rule by the communists, and the slavish attitude of their populous.
I might surprise you - I do not see the elections as fake. The majority of people there are idiots, and they did voluntarily vote for this new Joseph II king. He is giving what they want ("Powerful" Russia) while destroying all the opposition, and they just love it. They loved the annexation of Crimea, and they would love much more - much like the USSR did in the thirties, when they kept grabbing territories, and, together with Hitler, started WWII.
I could tell you so much more, but this is film forum. Unfortunately, aliens and blood and gore are far more exciting to many than history.
. . . and we should probably cease and desist our discussion for now - besides, I've got to go watch RT! ;-)
