Am I missing something or did nothing in the article match the title?

[-] sxan@midwest.social -1 points 1 year ago

I thought it was; maybe the link you got was to the front page, or something? The article was mostly about how Prigozhin's attempted coup (or whatever it was) surprised Western leaders, and a bunch of speculation about how the West is scrambling to prepare contingemcy plans. So the one I read seemed to match.

However, I think it was a fluff article, with little substance. Prigozhin has been agitating for weeks, and I seriously doubt MI6 (or the CIA) was surprised by his actions. Or that nobody has a contingency plan for chaos in Russia. Putin's a dictator, and when dictators die, it's rarely a peaceful transition of power.

In their place i would rather prepare for scenario of unexpected collapse of United Kingdom.

[-] lowleveldata@programming.dev 0 points 1 year ago

Who says they have not prepared for that?

[-] Pili@lemmygrad.ml -1 points 1 year ago

UK politicians never really seem prepared for anything tbh

[-] PolandIsAStateOfMind@lemmy.ml -4 points 1 year ago

Considering their preparations for other things, like brexit or covid i would say LOL.

[-] yogthos@lemmy.ml -3 points 1 year ago

To be fair, it's not exactly an unexpected scenario.

[-] PolandIsAStateOfMind@lemmy.ml -3 points 1 year ago

I would even say, desired.

Fuck, this is reddit people :-D

[-] SapphicFemme@lib.lgbt -1 points 1 year ago

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you are refering to as Reddit, is in fact Lemm or as I have recently taken to calling it The+Fediverse ....

The world will be a better place when British regime falls, no question about that.

[-] damnYouSun@sh.itjust.works 0 points 1 year ago

Implying that there is a current regime.

[-] yogthos@lemmy.ml -2 points 1 year ago

Correct, it's a regime that bans public protest and tortures journalists. If one of the designated enemies was caught doing what UK is doing then you'd wast no time calling it a regime.
