Another sign of rigging is that 2024 election results peaked at round figures, Shukshin wrote. This distribution of results looks like a saw on graphs, which led to the nickname “Putin’s saw.”

Guy got 87%.
You can’t get 87% of people to agree on pizza toppings for the night
Shit, you can’t get 87% of people to agree they’re all hungry.
The sad thing is that of that bullshit 87% figure were still people who voted for him and far more than should have. There are way too many Putin sycophants in Russia. I realize it doesn’t help that the media is state-controlled, but it’s amazing what he can get away with and still be worshiped by a significant segment of the population.
I guess it’s not that much different from Trump.
(Assuming you’re American)
Lots of Americans seem to think that state media is a bad thing. Lot’s of countries get it right. Especially after it’s first been implemented.
I’d often rather have a government (obviously not Russia, China, or in my case Canada) over some oligarch controlling it. Murdoch hasn’t exactly been doing good things wherever he goes
I am American and I have nothing wrong with some of a country’s media being state-run. The problem comes when it is all state-run. That is the issue in Russia. All the media they consume is an outlet of Putin’s government.
It looks completely different from my perspective. Vast majority of Putin’s supporters are quite passive and want to have tomorrow everything they have today. They do not organize into groups themselves, and they are not invested emotionally.
I’d say that war supporting Z-groups behave much more like Trump supporters. But don’t let yourself to be tricked here, they are 2 distinct groups with not complete intersection
you can’t get 67% of family members to agree on who goes to the shower first
