Well, it looks like there were those in Russia willing to protest.
Once.
Once.

And Putin's response was predictably harsh, with over 1000 arrests.

That's because he's a devoutly religious man of the people who himself is still poor after working so tirelessly at small salary for the good of the Russian people.
We should all take a leaf out of Vlad's book.
Unlike other leaders, he has not used his position to enrich himself, or have multi-billion-dollar properties, guarded by the FSB, at his disposal.

Murderous, kleptocratic, vicious dictator Vlad might well be, but you can not deny his sense of humour: https://www.stuff.co.nz/world/europ...isks-sliding-into-an-all-against-all-conflict

The mistake that most people make with regard to Putin is trying to club him with tin-pot dictators or imbecilic wannabes like Trump. The man is shrewd, intelligent, calculating, and very politically savvy.

Quite interesting what Putin had to say to zee liederz ov zee World Economic Forum including the infamous Klaus "Great Reset" Schwab who does the introduction:
It takes a special kind of brain-deadness to hate on this guy from an Anglo country with the scum that "leads" them on the surface (pay no attention to the monarchy).

Nobody cares to explain the point to someone who pretends to think that this is "drivel".

So no actual point then, just the usual Putinist propaganda.
Putin talks about the need for solutions to the increasing disparity between rich and poor; between rich countries and poor countries.
He's talking about the need for fiscal stimuli, and
he says his priorities are the priorities of Russia:
1. The right for everyone to have a home and infrastructure.
2. Confidence in having a steadily increasing income to develop career, get pension.
3. Health care for all.
4. Regardless of income, decent education for children.
Propaganda?
He says there were never any attempts to start a NWO, hahaha, that was rather cool for debunkers.
He says the reality is that there are true differences in the world - political models, cultural - so we must use new forms of interaction to coordinate to work together on these priorities.
This is already being done in the production and rollout of the COVID vaccines, and shows in giving the vaccines to developing countries because they have higher health risks.
In talking about future international relations, he said "we should get rid of our past phobias".
That was pretty interesting, CE.

Unlike his pal in Mar-A-Lago, Putin can talk a good game. One look at what has been going on in Russia will tell you how serious he is about those things. That's about 2 in a scale of 1 to 10.

Certainly is.
The irony is him talking about international conflicts as he sits there creating them, or maybe everyone's forgotten Crimea & Ukraine already.
I've said time after time, Putin is everything Trump isn't - smart, cunning as a dunny rat, successful, and genuinely a very tough person, while the orange man is thick, soft and a coward.
I respect Vlad's ability while despising him for his actions, because Russia deserves batter after having had a total of one benevolent leader in all history, as far as I can tell.
