Worst. Coup d’etat. Ever.
Pedro Castillo was arrested by his own security detail, it’s kinda hard to beat this. Hotdog man didn’t even get within 200km of Moscow. You only get successful coups in Africa these days
lol hotdog man?
Evgeny Prigozhin started his career selling hotdogs, then become a caterer, then became a chef of Putin, then he founded PMC Wagner, tried to do a coup for dumbest reasons imaginable, then got killed by bomb attached to his private jet
you’re on ncd, you should know that
Thanks, I know the recent stuff. I wasn’t aware of the hotdogs and catering.
The lore is deep but fulfilling.
Much like the hotdogs and catering.
Goddammit, did I sleep through another attempted coup?
They should really respect European time zones! Most of the time I only see the first half, even if I stay up late.
Biggest argument in favor of compulsory military service I’ve ever seen. The everyday citizen soldiers didn’t give a fuck about the coup, and weren’t willing to risk confrontation with their military trained fellow citizens for a wannabe dictator. It was a beautiful thing.
They sent tier 1 SOF and MP, but yeah even they didn’t want to be involved

You don’t need conscripts. This is just, quite literally, one of the foundations of (small r) republican thought.
When your coup hardly lasts longer than a video about how to coup a country.
