rynzcycle ( @rynzcycle@kbin.social ) 30•10 months agoOk, I’ll do it…
He’s alive and well and this is a bit of theatre agreed upon between Putler and him to save face in all directions.**This is a conspiracy theory and not at all based on facts, don’t quote me or take it too seriously
kembik ( @kembik@lemm.ee ) 8•10 months agoA plane crash can make it easier to claim an alive man is dead as there may not be a body.
I could see this as a means to keep Wagner troops loyalties in check, or just to keep everyone guessing. The most likely scenario though is that Putin did what Putin does which is assassination.
heartlessevil ( @heartlessevil@lemmy.one ) English1•10 months agoThe body doesn’t magically disappear. Although it is probably in many, many pieces, this can be confirmed through DNA testing on small samples.
Mangosniper ( @Mangosniper@feddit.de ) 3•10 months agoDNA testing that Russian investigators will do in Russia. And as we all know, they are trustworthy as fuck
heartlessevil ( @heartlessevil@lemmy.one ) English1•10 months agoWouldn’t they want to do that to show off their work? Or I guess not so they can distance themselves from it and pretend it never happened.

People are totally going to take that seriously.
Storksforlegs ( @storksforlegs@beehaw.org ) English3•10 months agoI think its equally likely he was shot down/plane sabotaged, this is fake face saving thing, or the plane crashed due to shoddy mechanics. Whatever the case, the uncertainty works out in Putin’s favour.
And if this is a fake-out, I think it’ll be found out pretty easily. He is not so adept at disguises.
JCPhoenix ( @JCPhoenix@beehaw.org ) English1•10 months agoIdk, I kinda think he looks like Admiral-General Haffaz Aladeen in that second photo.
dark_stang ( @dark_stang@beehaw.org ) English26•10 months agoAnd I’m sure the investigation will reveal no foul play.
Rozaŭtuno ( @Rozauhtuno@lemmy.blahaj.zone ) 23•10 months agoOh, he didn’t just “accidentally” fall from a window like usual? They upped the budget.
megopie ( @megopie@beehaw.org ) 11•10 months agoNo, the plane just accidentally flew in to an air defense missile that was inexplicably hovering at 10,000 meters.
FaeDrifter ( @FaeDrifter@midwest.social ) English9•10 months agoMan I hate running into air defense missiles, it’s such a downer
Uniquitous ( @Uniquitous@lemmy.one ) English22•10 months agoSurprised it took this long, honestly.
akp ( @akp@beehaw.org ) English4•10 months agoI said the same thing to coworkers when they mentioned this
Sicktatties ( @Sicktatties@discuss.online ) 19•10 months agoOh no! Anyway…
Ertebolle ( @Ertebolle@kbin.social ) 16•10 months agoFeels like Putin’s lost a step, this should have been a much more interesting / inexplicable death; crushed by a herd of elephants or some such.
DrWeevilJammer ( @DrWeevilJammer@lemmy.ml ) 3•10 months agocrushed by a herd of elephants
OG Hannibal style
darko8472 ( @darko8472@feddit.uk ) English15•10 months agoDifferent then exiting a window I suppose
pelotron ( @pelotron@midwest.social ) English27•10 months agoI think the plane fell out a window
jet ( @jet@hackertalks.com ) English12•10 months agoThe window was really high up, and they all fell down… checks out. Natural causes
Che Banana ( @Che_Donkey@lemmy.ml ) 5•10 months agoHy Progie…take a look at the view from here 👌
FaeDrifter ( @FaeDrifter@midwest.social ) English2•10 months agoThe place fell out a window, and while it fell he fell out of a window on the falling plane.
Blizzard ( @Blizzard@lemmy.zip ) English8•10 months agoHe could have exited a window on the plane.
newtraditionalists ( @newtraditionalists@kbin.social ) 10•10 months agoI mean, that’s great! But what happens to his army of degenerate war criminals? They just unite under some other scumbag? Hopefully, he was arrogant enough to leave behind no indication of what to do in an event like this, and they succumb to infighting. We can dream, I suppose.
Edit: spelling
jmcs ( @jmcs@discuss.tchncs.de ) 9•10 months agoUtkin would be a strong candidate but he also got a bad case of airplane crash.
2ndtryagain ( @2ndtryagain@beehaw.org ) 5•10 months agoThey are all headed to Africa to cause more trouble and try and get their own little fiefdoms. At some point the US, EU or NATO is going to have to go in and fuck them up.
abbadon420 ( @abbadon420@lemm.ee ) 9•10 months agoBbc : “presumed dead”
Lemmy: “he dead!”
