It was so much easier to blame Them. It was bleakly depressing to think They were Us. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.

I assume they get reassigned, they would remain government employees after all.

Who stuffs election boxes when you're winning 70/30 having already banned any serious alternative from standing against you?

Putin must be starting to close on Stalin now for number of years as the de facto Tsar

There’s a massive need to look all powerful on display there, just winning isn’t enough .

“Comrade Putin, we have successfully stockpiled novichoks in secret for ten years, and kept them hidden from the OPCW inspectors. We have also trained our agents in secret novichok assassination techniques. The programme has cost hundreds of millions of dollars, but now we are ready. Naturally, the first time we use it we will expose our secret and suffer massive international blowback. So who should be our first target? The head of a foreign intelligence agency? A leading jihadist rebel in Syria? A key nuclear scientist? Even a Head of State?”

“No, Tovarich. There is this old retired guy I know living in Salisbury. We released him from jail years ago…”

You might want to have a closer look at the Cambridge Anal-lickita case.
Not only did they legally buy the info from Facebook,..... but the algorithm means that they only have to focus on 5% of the electorate to steer a vote.

The point is you wouldn't stuff election boxes when you are overwhelming favorite due to your immense popularity.

NATO needs its Russian bogeyman to justify its endless wars. :evil:

Undoubtedly something along those lines. He won by a landslide victory. Everyone knows he is immensely popular with Russians. That should be the focus of impartial news reporting on the elections.

In fact, I just had a look at some news about that and read that it was one of the cleanest elections to date, and that any isolated transgressions had been dealt with accordingly. Big deal...
