Started out as a Reddit alternative during the blackout from Jun 12-21, 2023 with over 1k members in just a few days. Fizzled faster than the "I Didn't Do It" kid after a month until it became the internet's Centralia in less than a year.

Quite a clusterfuck in Russia rn. I just hope this isn't the domino that tips the world over into Fallout 5.
It's Wagner Group vs. Putin now.
*Politico article.
*Al-Jazeera live updates
*BBC report
TLDR: Wagner goes apeshit on Moscow, specifically the advisors to Putin on Ukraine because they believe Moscow used Wagner troops as cannon fodder, killing many mercs. Moscow says this is an armed rebellion, and tensions are on the rise.
EDIT: Clarity. Wagner is not necessarily angry at Putin himself, rather at the leadership surrounding and advising him on Ukraine.
