Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.

7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description.

Lol. The media in Russia says the same about the USA.
Broken clock, etc.
Russians are used to revolution. Some do it as a hobby. "Is Sunday? Call Jeffrey, we go revolt!"
Americans are too cowed to revolt. Sure, there's marches and twitter posts, but look at all the shit that's happened since Trump got in, up to and including federal agents murdering people in the street as part of their gulag-filling tasks, and a complete coverup of child rape by TPTB. If that hasn't led to revolution in the US yet, nothing will.
Both could be a start
If any it will be a KGB coup.
The KGB hasn't existed since 1991.
This would explain everything.
If they revolt it will be only to install some even crazier, more bloodthirsty guy as a leader.
What's your basis for saying this?
History I'd imagine
I think revolution has finally been beaten out of the Russian people
Is the revolution in the room with us right now?
I wish I believed that, but until I see evidence to the contrary, I am quite convinced that Putin’s regime has the civil situation well in hand.
