It's really one guy slap fighting himself tbh.

I envision that when they inevitably have their boxing match/dick measuring contest or whatever the ring girls that usually go around with cards with numbers on them are just going to be holding Window Panes.

I was going through some pretty hard times and confessed to bring basically in mental breakdown at that time. The support from the board was amazing except for a couple of guys like the Prez here and Nik, guys that see you are close to the edge and try to give you that final push because that is the type of people they are. So yes, I was at the point where I just wanted to destroy everything. Anyhow I need to not take the bait anymore with those jackwads, there are plenty of good contributing posters on here that deserve attention.

clearly not, otherwise they would have removed the stain left by Yoho rubbing his ass allover the thread.

It seems strange to me that a guy like Prigozhin would ever travel in Russia in a way where his name was on some list of passengers.

IDK. I'm not gonna be surprised if Prigozhin turns up alive somewhere. (Although it would probably be smart not to.)

No one cares. Stay on topic.

Look...I dont pretend to know either. To me none of it makes sense.

If you're going to Rebel against Putin, you either win or you lose. Theres no middle ground. So why stop?

If you're going to take some sort of Amnesty deal, why do it in Belarus where Putin can still easily get to you? You should disappear.

Maybe its a trick, maybe its a conspiracy, maybe Pergozhin is the dumbest person alive...well, maybe not so 'Alive.'

I dont know. And frankly, I dont care all that much. The world is probably a nicer place with Pergozhin out of it, unless he was genuinely willing to take Putin out of it with him.

What you mean to say is "you" don't care. Plenty of us care about him and are glad to hear he's doing better.

If the mods followed the rules Nik would have been lifetime banned years ago. Oh wait, that happened once yet here he is somehow. Anyhow let's just move in from this, the fn troll is never going anywhere, he will just continue his bs personal attack one line drive bys. I am done talking about it, it clearly doesn't matter.

Baffling. If I'm him I'm hiding out in an unknown place in Africa, where only my own guys know where I am.

I don't think a dude like that can live like that.

He wants the spotlight.

I thought he was back in Putin's good graces after negotiating and turning back. Why would Putin have him killed? Did I miss something?

I've got some good news for him then, he's got 50% of the spotlight in this thread today!

Uhh...I dont think it works like that.

You're in a war and your own soldiers rebelled against you.

I dont know about you, but I'd never, ever, EVER trust them again. And I'm a pretty nice guy (So I'm told) and Putin though? Not so much (So I'm told).

Attempting a Coup against the state during a War is essentially unforgivable.

And Putin...ya know...he has a bit of a history of "Notoriously Holds A Grudge."

Ya, good point. I guess I just thought he was being a good little lap dog again and was a key strategist for Russia. Is there not any current rebellion groups against Putin? You would think someone by now would take a shot at him regardless of how good his security is.

Prigozhin dun goofed. No second changes with Uncle Vlad.

If Prigozhin wasnt on that plane, I'd be sleeping with one eye open if I was any Russian leadership

Wagner is setting up puppet and mini-colonial states in Africa. That wouldn't satisfy him for a few years until Putin has likely been removed? I get that he likes he spotlight, but death was almost inevitable and Putin has also been killing people in some pretty awful ways. A crashed plane was a pretty easy way to go, compared to say radiation poisoning.

This is probably the first actual de-Nazification of the war
