    Well it’s not a “color” revolution, it’s just a revolution. (Possibly. We haven’t seen the end result yet.)

      I think its pretty telling that western politicians and media are already supporting the protestors, and painting the government (and Russia of course) as the bad guys. In that way it is very similar to the color revolutions in Hong Kong, Belarus, Ukraine etc.

      When there are actual protests (like yellow vets in France, or protests in Chile), the media is either quiet about it, or describes the protests as unjustified.

      But its definitely early to talk about this, things will get clearer over time.

        So what? The majority of links posted on Lemmy has a pro-US bias, its good to get some different views.

          It’s useful to mark them as “views of Russian state” (to be more exact, SVR).

            According to the US government, which is not a trustworthy source. And why should only Russian views be marked, but not those by regimes like the United States?

            By the way, for views of the Russian state I recommend this analysis.
