Reply to comment by Mister_Way in [OC] Top 10 Richest Russian Oligarchs in 2022 and their links to Putin by Spirited-Focus-7312

The Russian oligarchy has a very specific history and centralized power structure. And Putin's rise to power was very much an inside deal with Yeltsin and other former Soviet power brokers. They didn't need any help from the west.

Touch grass man. You’re not coming off as enlightened, smart, or having the ability to see through the veil. You just sound dumb, ignoring history and facts in favor of conspiracy.
