2024-08-21 | Where is Vladimir Vladimirovich - Mystery of the Disappearing Dictator
Silicon Curtain - En podcast af Jonathan Fink
2024-08-21 | Where exactly is Vladimir Vladimirovich? This is the adult version of where’s Wally? Find the genocidal tyrant. It’s not even a matter of spotting him amongst the body doubles, trebles, quadruples, quintuples, etc. He’s nowhere. Largely vanished from the screens of state TV and official appearances. ---------- It’s been 2 weeks since a foreign army invaded Russia, the first time in fact for 80 years since the former ally of the USSR, Nazi Germany turned on Stalin. Russia has lost 1,250 kilometres and 92 settlements to a substantive Ukrainian army, and Putin chooses this moment to keep a low profile. Why is the dictator who fosters the image of a tough, man of action, who was going to take Kyiv in 3 days, and eliminate all the Ukro-nazis, silent on the fact that this decadent and ‘corrupt’ adversary is now gobbling up chunks of Russian territory. Literally driving German tanks into Kursk to de-Putinise Russian territory. And many of the locals seem perfectly happy with this. My guess is that the tyrant is terrified, as reality catches up with his myths and delusions. ---------- Sources and recommended reading: https://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/articles/2024-08-16/ukraine-s-assault-inside-russia-is-putin-s-worst-nightmare https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3XPSp-8bUY0 ---------- SUPPORT THE CHANNEL: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain https://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtain ---------- TRUSTED CHARITIES ON THE GROUND: Save Ukraine https://www.saveukraineua.org/ Superhumans - Hospital for war traumas https://superhumans.com/en/ UNBROKEN - Treatment.
