While falling out of a window.
After shooting themself in the back of the head 5 times
Whilst writing a suicide note in someone else’s handwriting
“accidental”
I’m conflicted.
As an “enemy” of Putin, I have to assume assignation, but no windows? Russia has lots its way, are the classics no longer respected.
Maybe he died of the mushroom before or during a defenstration. it does seem out of pattern.
So many “coincidences” over the years. These “accidents” always happen to his dear oppositors. Nobody knows why.
I wonder how many Putin allies have died similarly, and if there’s any reporting bias about it.
Not doubting the “coincidences,” but it would be interesting to validate statistically.
This is more of a cultural thing where you know you will get killed if you go against the leader, you know it’s “bad” to even talk bad about them, and it’s just accepted and you don’t really criticize it… Because criticizing your government would mean getting in serious trouble. You learn this young. You accept it. You just don’t do it.
That’s how it was in the USSR, how it persisted under Putin, and they just believe that to be a symptom of a “strong” government. Apparently youth might be waking up a bit more in recent years, but it was like that for a long fucking time and they accept that just opening a piece of white paper in front of a building like a protester means getting carried away.
So yeah they know these people are getting killed by their government. It’s just accepted. There is no question that it isn’t an accident.
lets recap: falling out of windows right after series of losses, asking for covid assistance, falling out or exploding planes, poisonous underwear, falling off of boats, bombs.
Don’t forget the other poisonings, and shooting. From radioactive polonium, to nerve toxins, to we would even count pumping that concert hall full of fentanyl gas when it was taken by chechens and killing a good share if not most of the hostages, considered a great success in Russia I’m sure.
There was another with some kind of tree frog in a sweat lodge too just a few years back.
russia sure likes to try anything that has poison in it. ricin and polonium was too obvious, so its novichik for dissidents, windows for oligarches.
Everyone knows you should only eat the mushrooms you know and not just anything you find in the Forrest.
A mushroom expert would know that too, which is why we all think he was poisoned.
Intern: But comrade doctor, the man was obviously shot!
Comrade Doctor: Not so comrade, the mushrooms simply happened to be 9mm lead and thus he can reasonably have been said to have died of lead mushroom poisoning.
Must have lived in a bungalow
I skipped over “enemy” and got really excited for a second
Haha, I just read “Putin enemy” and it kind of gave away the ending
Right? Me too, haven’t felt such a rush in ages even if it was short lived
If they both die on the same day there will be much party
Lol, I did the same, was almost happy there for a second
Just such relief, for a moment.
I don’t know much about Russian politics, but I seem to remember reading something saying that the people in potential positions to replace him are all crazy ultracons, so probably not a lot would change. Obviously the world would be better without him in general but I’m not sure how much relief it would ultimately bring.
putin also eliminates anyone, even the ultracons if he sees them as a threat.
The question is whether they have the same iron grip, or if they would eventually fall
Trump ₑₙₑₘᵧ dies suddenly
You and me both, friend 😞
Friends say he passed away at home after eating mushrooms he found in the yard of his home.
Though he was a mushroom expert, the mushrooms he collected turned out to be poisonous.
When I become a political speaker I’m going to make my hobbies piano moving, snake catching, deep sea fishing, and free climbing.
High rise window cleaner.
Boiler repair on oil rigs on the weekend?
…the mushrooms he saw in the yard of his home, right before diving from the fifth floor window in his excitement to pick them up and being almost saved by a passer-by, helpfully trying to slow his fall by shooting a few bullets up at him
All while having his hands and legs bound with rope. Making Houdini proud.
Tea collector
Don’t forget BASE jumping.
A Russian coworker once lamented that he couldn’t collect mushrooms in our area since he was not familiar with them like back home. Guess it’s not an unusual thing to do in Russia.
Looks like they are running out of windows
“Let’s see them throw me out a window now! I’ll never set foot inside a building with a window ever again. I’m just going to live a simple life outdoors with my mushrooms. They’re the only thing that brings me joy anymore.”
they have plenty of poisnous mushrooms, and novichik.
Did they run out of windows already?
Accidental is the keyword.

This is such a "wink, wink " to readers if I ever see one
If an Amanita, they are universally known amongst mushroom experts and even just foragers, never trust any white mushrooms with their look. There is a very low chance he wasn’t poisoned.
We had a case of death cap mushrooms in a Beef Wellington in Australia. The cook was convicted of killing her ex in-laws. Sounds familiar.
Ex in laws? That’s a hell of a grudge to hold
Yeah I remember reading that story. It was pretty fucked up.
they were spread in the USA to, from oaks imported from europe that had the spores on them.
What about destroying angels? Are they native to europe as well?
apparently its not a unique to a clade, but any of the related anamita deadly mushrooms that are all WHITE. phalloides, is greenish. they have some europe, but doesnt seem as common as death cap.
It was followed pretty closely in the news in NZ too.

Sure, “accidentally”
