  1. It’s not that bad yet but since Feb. 24 you just can’t trust the government in any way…you can avoid reading critical news about people getting jailed for something like * *** written on a sheet of paper but it has no other way but to become worse and affect people not involved in politics or protests. It’s a matter of time when police gonna “find” some drugs in your pocket and demand ransom things like that. But most people gonna wait till the last moment believing that “I keep low profile everything gonna be fine”.

  2. Yeah that’s fckd up …btw snitching is usually not embraced in Russian culture(Russians often complained about snitching in the west like neighbourhood watch and people “reporting” everything like you doing some “illegal” barbecue, like you bought a car that looks too expensive so you probably evade taxes things like that) so one of the main complains on western society is snitching.

  3. I highly doubt it because there is no exit strategy from the situation other than regime change. It’s a “frontier market” from now on with basically no rule of law and shrinking domestic market. The war being frozen only means more domestic repressions and government control.
