A makeshift memorial for the Russian pro-war propagandist Vladlen Tatarsky killed in a bombing attack in Saint Petersburg on April 2, 2023 compared to the makeshift memorials for Moon Bin (the kpop idol who committed suicide on April 19, 2023) across the Russian cities.
Two furries came out with weapons to support the Wagner PMC coup, and were arrested.
While Prigozhin's mercenaries were moving toward Moscow, two furries, 20-year-old Danila and 18-year-old Yegor, armed themselves with a Mosin-Nagant rifle and went out in the streets of the city.
The Wagner PMC backed off, and the furries were detained by the police. The law enforcers ordered an investigation into the actions of the detainees.
This is the only case when someone proactively tried to join the events of the coup attempt from the outside. There were zero cases of civilians coming out to defend Putin's government.

The Russian Interior Ministry is working on a migration reform plan that will essentially lead to the amnesty for illegal migrants in the country. The essence of the initiative is that when an illegal migrant is detected, they will not be deported, but will be prohibited from a number of actions such as buying a house or registering a business, the restrictions that will be lifted after receiving the necessary documents. Thus, instead of the threat of imprisonment and deportation, illegal immigrants who illegally crossed the border of the Russian Federation or had their visa and other migration documents expired will seek to legalize in the country by obtaining a permanent residence permit. In September, the head of the Ministry of Economic Development Maxim Reshetnikov called the shortage of personnel the main internal source of risks for the economy, and the Central Bank of the Russian Federation reported that almost 70% of Russian companies suffer from a shortage of workers. This is due to the exodus of Russians to other countries amid the war in Ukraine, most of those who left are men who fear military draft. The Russian government plans to replace them with migrants from Muslim countries of Central Asia.
A couple of weeks ago, a bust was erected on the campus of the Technical University in Rostov-on-Don in honor of White Army General Pyotr Wrangel, a hero of the Russo-Japanese War and World War I. He fought against the Bolsheviks, so during the Soviet era his name was slandered. The move predictably caused anger among local communists. The initiator of the monument embarrassingly tried to use the war in Ukraine as a cover, claiming that the general "fought for a united and indivisible Russia" and "raised the Russian flag over Kiev in 1919". Of course, this didn't help. Communists protested almost every day, coming out with USSR flags and banners calling Wrangel a fascist. The university had to wrap the bust in a garbage bag out of fear of vandalism. Today, the bust was taken down. This is quite curious, given that apologists of Russia in the West, often being of Russian descent themselves, in seeking an audience like to pass themselves off as admirers of the Russian Empire, rightly realizing that speaking openly as Stalinist tankies will marginalize them. They constantly have to be reminded of the fact that Russian Empire fans in today's Russia are freaks without any influence. At the same time, the 110th monument to Stalin was unveiled in Russia (not counting museums), of that number only 9% have survived from Soviet times, 95 of them were unveiled during Putin's reign.
The most discussed news topic of the last month in the Russian media was the TikTok trend in which people from all over the world make videos singing a 20 year-old song by Russian singer Katya Lel. Thanks to TikTok, the song reached the top 3 of the Spotify worldwide chart and all the Russian media (including the official newspaper of the Russian Parliament) have reported on it, made features in the national TV news and dedicated talk show specials on state TV to it. The singer herself called the success a "HUGE WIN for the WHOLE COUNTRY!" Finally, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova wrote an insane statement saying that "the cancelling of Russian culture failed", citing the places which the song occupies in various online charts in Western countries. An absolute reflection of Russian society's inferiority complex, when entering a Swedish streaming service's chart and trending on TikTok where people ridicule Russian women, portraying them as stereotypical Russian prostitutes in fur coats and with fake lips and breasts, is celebrating like winning a war. Zakharova's text concludes with "Everyone who is going to cancel us next time will have a taste of our dzhaga-dzhaga." This is a reference to the lyrics of the song, in the chorus of which the singer calls for someone to fuck her and uses the euphemism "dzhaga-dzhaga" for vagina, inviting the person to eat her out.
