also the seeds have been sown for open rebellion in russia. in many ways the russia of today is a great parallel to 1917. you have a really dumb war that is openly going terrible for russia, you have open rebellion breaking out in various parts of the nation, you have financial hardship for the common people, you have elites rapidly losing power and money, you have a visibly weakened state apparatus that is unable to project powrt domestically.

the situation isn't yet as dire as it was in 1917 but today's russia is showing shades of the earlier 191x's when the seeds were being nurtured and growing. there is no way russia can continue to conscript the soldiers they need to hold in ukraine now and they just lost their most elite fighters as a unit. the ultimate end for the putin regime will likely come when enough people in key positions in the armed forces and government turn, but that process will continue to accelerate as long as more and more domestic drama unfolds and the leadership continues to look more and more impotent
