    I think you’re making up a world in your head.

    My friend, they poisoned people in the UK with a fucking nerve agent. They are so brazen and open about people being killed for not doing that the Kremlin tells them.

    They have purposely made a meme out of the “suspiciously fell from window” thing, because they want people to know exactly what happens and why.

      Yes, they did. How often is that happening? Proportion.

        We’re not talking about taking out former spies in foreign, sovereign nations you dolt. I used that as an example to show just how brazen and open they are about this stuff. Using such a dangerous method, on foreign soil, is basically unheard of.

        If you actually want to talk about frequency, we should be looking at the defenestration cases…

        This shit is happening so frequently that there are several wiki pages dedicated to listing them:

        https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suspicious_deaths_of_notable_Russians_in_2022

        Scroll down to “see also” for a long list of related articles about the Russian government assassinating citizens and low-level bureaucrats.

        Assuming you actually give a shit

          Wikipedia does not have an article with this exact name.

          In any case, the defenestrations I’ve heard of have been within Russia, not outside it.

          Using such a dangerous method, on foreign soil, is basically unheard of.

          Not unheard of. US drone strikes on US citizens is a no-less dangerous a method.
