After Prigozhin died earlier today Wagner convoys were observed leaving Belarus, heading to Russia. Putin offered to fly them home, but: no.
If this is true, they're all fools -- or powerless. I figured Putin would order Lukashenko to keep them disarmed and encamped. But if they've been rounded up and bussed home, @Anomalocaris is surely right: they will be disappeared. Dumbfucks. They'll die all the same, only not as quickly. There's fingernails to pull and heads to be vised. Names!
On a side note, I'm currently rereading Gulag Archipelago. Plus ça change ...
