genericnick posted:I don't think that's true about the former soviet union? Maidan worked out brilliantly and the two major components of the old USSR are at war. As plays go that's quite a result. It's really outside western Eurasia where things are starting to break down. Color revolution works (worked) in Western and orthodox civilizations but no other civilizations. It never worked in Iran and didn't really work out for the west after the Arab Spring. In fact if you count Kyiv belong to the "western civ" portion of the country, color revolution didn't work in Orthodox region either. There was a failed color rev right before the Ukrainian war in Kazakhstan.

I don’t know if it is right what was done but that guy was detained and charged with smuggling in cash in July 2022 and then given the prize in October.

Pistol_Pete posted:The extent of Western hubris in this conflict is really becoming apparent. Just assuming that Russia can be bullied and sanctioned in the same way as some isolated little state and that the rest of the world will obediently go along with it and disregard their own interests. I've seen so many commentators baffled and exasperated beyond belief that China, India etc aren't following the script that the West has written for them and are doing their own thing instead. im hoping this leads to a hilarious attempt to color revolution modi

The color revolution in Kyiv wasn't about east and west. It was about violence, just like every other time in history. Yanukovich wasn't ready to fight and kill to hold on to power, the nazis were. They're in charge, he isn't. Lukashenko actually was a strongman, despite whatever that lying sack of poo poo McFaul says, that's why he crushed the protests and Belarus hasn't fallen into a civil war yet.

I ask in the context of, our visual conception of revolts / riots / uprisings usually comes down to riot police, uniformed soldiers/infantry, and maybe tanks or other armored vehicles, but not artillery Well, "a whiff of grapeshot" is traditionally the last recourse of the state, but also the most effective way to disperse a crowd. The issue is that there's not really an offramp after that because one you employ "Ultima Ratio Regum" on the population, you're at war with them, more or less. A war you can win off course, but it means that any other attempt to resolve the dispute is out of the question. In Canada's rebellions of 1837, the Regulars showing up with a cannon was enough to settle the whole thing. That's true of a lot of 19th century riots and rebellions. On a larger scale, guns became important both practically and symbolically in India after Sepoys turned their guns on the British during the Mutiny. That allowed them to take the cantonments and the Mutiny spread to whole cities. Guns were required to put down the Mutiny, which was logistically difficult, and led to the creation of railways in India. Mutineers were of course executed by being blown from the guns, which further cemented their place as a symbol of public order. After that, the Artillery in India was always British*. *Some exceptions apply, see Tankbuster for details Frosted Flake has issued a correction as of 15:55 on Mar 3, 2023 |

Tankbuster posted:monograph explaining why executing rebellious sepoys by blowing them up with cannons is actually cool from 1865 You read my mind. I'm trying to think of where I read Gunners' memoirs from the end of the Mutiny. It was, obviously, what we'd recognize today as pretty loving traumatic. I seem to remember the details tasked to it were given extra rum and gin to get through the day. Obviously more traumatic for the people of India, but I don't think anything can prepare you for blowing someone from a gun. Frosted Flake has issued a correction as of 15:58 on Mar 3, 2023 |
