  • People depend on the media and internet to learn what’s happening, and dictatorships tend to control both. They were cutting off internet on Ruzzia over the weekend, so it wouldn’t surprise me if most Russians don’t find out.

  • For sure. Ruzzia has its own version of Fox News, but it is on four channels at the same time. Still by heart russians are so accustomed to taking things with a grain of salt that it will be difficult to brush this off as nothing. So what they do is make it a spectacle and praise the heroes instead to spin the failure as a great success. The crazy thing is people accept it even though they know there is something fishy.
