      Stalin tried to enforce the Lenin treatment for himself…

      It doesn’t always stick.

      The next person to gain power is 100% going to clean house, because the Russian government is a pit of back biting vipers.

        You’re not worried that Putin is really just a puppet for all the oligarchs running the place now? Seems likely they’ll pick a new puppet.

          They’re all in it together, but the ones less loyal to Putin have a habit of dying.

          Putin has had a bunch of them killed.

          There’s a great podcast called Sad Oligarch that goes over it all.

          So yeah, Putin is not currently a puppet ruler.

          A puppet is someone whose actions are fully steered from the outside.

          Putin is a person chosen by KGB/FSB because he makes decisions that are very useful its leaders, but he retains a large amount of autonomy.
