I mean, fuck the capitalist oligarchy that is post Soviet Russia, but soulless oil executives dying will always be funny.

Gotta love how western media cries and shits their pants over billionaires, CEOs, corrupt politicians and blatant western political interference-NGOs getting their just desserts in other countries tbh. Like as if anyone with sense (sadly less common than it should be) would have sympathy.
They are constantly crying how "Russia is controlled by oligarchs" but at the same time how FSB defenestrate them every now and then.
I enjoy executives dying. It is my favorite occurrence. When an executive "falls" out a window, I think to myself "yes". When an executive finalizes a merger, I think to myself "no".
Depends on what's merging.
Executive with pavement?
Skill issue. When I fell out of a window, I simply didn't die.
Hell, my signature move has always been falling into windows, no joke, but I am no executive
Being tossed out a high rise window is Putin's signature move.
I thought it was grenade mishaps mid-flight
The highest window for him.
Gravity is tricky over there I think. Everyone always falling out windows and all.
Mikhail Rogachev is the latest of nearly a dozen Russian energy executives to die in mysterious circumstances over the past two years
idk. he fell from the window, and the sudden stop on the hard floor made him dead. doesnt seem particularly mysterious to me
Telegram channels close to the Russian security services said his body was discovered by an agent of the SVR, Russia’s foreign intelligence service, who was walking the dog of a senior spymaster in the building’s courtyard on Saturday morning.
I love both possibilities of this
that this was the way of security services in general to show their adjacency without implicating themselves and the domestic intelligence services directly, as a message to others
or that this foreign intelligence agent was legitimately walking his boss' dog and was like "what
oh god damn it"
How many people have "fallen out" of windows just in 2024 alone, it surely has to be double digits now?
Seems like cultural appropriation tbh
Well Czechs aren't doing this anymore so the idea was just there, gathering dust.
his body was discovered by an agent of the SVR, Russia’s foreign intelligence service
So I guess he got killed for collaborating with foreign countries and risking national security?
lmfao, !
Rich motherfuckers always thinkin' they can fly.
Why didnt he use a slowfall scroll/spell? Is he stupid?
isn't this that guy from one direction?
He certainly went....one direction.
The actual one direction dude died in Argentina and fell 3 floors.
Vladimir Putin Uncle Phil
