    With Mexico at 6% perhaps it is time for Russia to foment a bit of communism there to get equality for the peasants and some justice against the rich... a bit of justice for the coloured revolutions the US has funded near Russian borders and against Russian allies.

    Of course I am not serious... I would not suggest anyone should inflict such death and destruction on the Mexican people, but if they are not happy with how thing turned out who else should change things but them?

    Mexico is another case. Dont forget there is the Drug War where there and corruption at extreme level. Remember the case where about 40 activists-students were arrested by the police and then the police handed them to drug cartels and they killed them. Even there remains cant be found.

    Unfortunately, as long as the Mexican government remain useful lackeys for USA the "International community" wouldn't give a crap to the Mexican people regardless of their suffering.

    Things politically do not look good in Russia.

    You got two people whom are clearly anti Russian, pro American and Ukraine Junta running for president of the country (Paranbas leader and sobchak), and in Ekaterinberg, George Soros and McCain funded organization is causing major problems.

    I think, due to the authorities failure to act, this could be what destroys Russia.

    How come these kinds of prostitution to the west doesn't happen in equally powerful countries like China? Russia clearly needs to set up laws that would make it illegal to support narratives that would lead to disintegration of Russia's sovereignty. All these western prostitutes needs to be humiliated with extreme prejudice.
    Now, the youth on the other hand needs to be taught from the earliest age possible to be Patriotic and Nationalistic so future generations of Russians are least susceptible to the idea of selling off their country. Rolling Eyes

    I think you guys are wrong....these people are alowed to exist to clearly show the people what the alternative is to the current government...just like their foreign sponsors, they're not exactly very smart. Instead of suppressing them, all the Russsian government has to do is loudly broadcast and show what they do and stand for

    You nailed it. The Russian government even funds and gives lots of prime-time air to pro-Western liberals exactly because of this. There is an excellent article by The Saker on this subject, worthy reading:

    Agreed. Heck just translating and publishing crap you get about Russia in GoogleNews feeds from MSM is more than enough to get the job done.

    It's reverse Cold War at this point with modern media playing Soviet Pravda.

    Sobchak - is she an ingenious plan of Uncle Vowa?

    1) she is actually getting a lots of coverage in gotv's media.
    2) she is genuine Russian liberal
    3) Her statements render her never elected but still can channel voice of liberal part of society in a democratic manner (without CIA sponsorship)

    In my deep thoughts if she gets real grasp on things suddenly she might change her image and statements for mor epro Russian. Consider her a Trojan Horse gift for liberal camp.

    A long article but it shows and proves Sobchak's pro Nazi background, proves an organization still operating in Russia freely is a George Soros organization and Khordokovsky organization. How this organization held Hotel Sniper training sessions in Russia, and how they infiltrated the most industrialized city/region in Russia.

    We're the fuck are the Russian authorities? How are they letting this happen?

    Fuck, I think Russia will split apart because of gross incompetence of FSB.

    And I think that Sobchak is a genius Putin's project. She knew she would get this role long time ago.  This is a chance to get perhaps imperfect but still Russian genuine opposition.  I dont like liberals myself but if you deny them right to express their mind in framework of law then many (especially young) people will consider them  oppressed ones. And support.

    IMHO much better is to let them speak their mind and disgrace themselves beside supporting them is no forbidden fruit among young population but   sheer stupidity. But anyway Russia needs some platform for liberals who are not actual US mignon and thief (Chubais, Prokhorov) or on US payrol (vide Navalny) .  

    What about it? do you think Putin is stupid letting real danger to election?

    It's stupid to let banned organizations to freely operate in Russia. I don't care about libs and their low support. But clearly allowing organizations pushing for a violent takeover (Maiden) and even training "snipers from hotel rooms) is clearly fucking stupid and wouldn't be allowed anywhere else.

    Thing is too, this organization (according to article) has infiltrated China too.

    And you are sure of source? who is author  and what was his agenda? this would mean that FSB just watches porn and Chinese services are in fact guards in Aliexpress warehouses.  Maidan in Russia aint gonna be anytime soon. Snipers are not main element and as criminal underground will be liquidated. There is no public support to maidowns neither libreasts. 
    It is specific case of Baltics and Ukraine this love for nazis. In Russia it is actual negligible minority. 

    Do you really think last 20years or so Vova was not careful watching all environment around? do you think he knows less that we do? I seriously doubt.

    Got to love it. Yakaterinbergs mayor participated in anti government, Pro Navalny protests. Even though the total outcome of the protests was pathetic. Nation wide, around ~30,000 people total.

    Let's see, a total population of around 147 mill, so 147/100=1.47=1%, 1470000/30000=49=>1%/49=0.021% or 1470000/40000=36.75=>1%/36.75=0.027%.
    In conclusion, pathetic, and don't you need a certain number of supporters to be eligible to run for president in Russia?
    If so, would this be remotely enough?

    Presidential candidates in Russia require 1 million signatures to participate in the election. This biases the choices to candidates
    from main parties or those who can set up organizations to gather this many signatures. But it eliminates the chaos of random
    candidates in the thousands running for the job. The Russian system is actually more open to candidates not affiliated with
    the main parties compared to the US system.

    Navalny can't run for president because he was tried and found guilty in a criminal case. Anyone who researches this clown
    sees that he is a grifter and that is why he is a US puppet who regularly colludes with US embassy officials. Trump is being
    harassed because some of his campaign people met Russian citizens. By this standard, Navalny should be getting the electric
    chair.

    Actually in Russia it's 100,000 if you are head of a registered party. If running independent, you need 300,000. Putin running as independent and so he needed 300,000 by Jan 20. By Jan 16 or so, he exceeded the 300,000 by about 1.2M votes. While the rest like Sobchak and Titov we're a little over half way of 100,000 by Jan 15.

    This is rather serious and very pathetic that such a candidate has not been barred or kicked out of running. This sets a very dangerous situation for future elections.
