This is a Dengist community in favor of Bashar al-Assad with no information that can lead to the arrest of Hillary Clinton, our fellow liberal and queen. This community is not ironic. We are Marxists-Leninists.

We have a Matrix homeserver and a Matrix space. See this thread for more information.

I guess this proves it wasn't the work of la CIA, but just internal turmoil.

Doesn't prove anything except that if the CIA (or more likely the MI6 and the SBU) did have a hand in it they were outplayed. If the Kremlin and Russian society in general had reacted differently the West could easily have gotten its wish for bloodshed fulfilled. A more insecure government may have reflexively resorted to immediate use of force.

It is an interesting thought experiment for instance to think about how the US government would have reacted if ten thousand Blackwater mercenaries armed with heavy military equipment took over Boston and were rolling down the highway towards Washington demanding the resignation of the Secretary of Defense and top Pentagon generals.
