The suddenness w/ which Prigozhin is being vilified/erased by the same groups (botnets, news media, TV pundits) that once lauded or at least tolerated him shows you how easily the Kremlin could end the invasion & sell it to the public, if it wished.

Admittedly, Prigozhin was never a star of state television, but the capture of Bakhmut was a genuinely celebrated moment in state propaganda.

Call off the invasion, offering whatever excuse you like for why it was a massive victory for Russia, and the detractors would only be able to moan on their Telegram channels.

Russia is a magical land where no prominent public figure has sided with Prigozhin, and yet his mercenary convoy seems to be cruising through cities, seizing military installations almost unmolested en route to Moscow.

It's wild to compare the Russian state's clumsy, cowardly response to Prigozhin's march of thugs to how the Ukrainian govt under Zelensky first rallied for the public in February and March 2022 when Russia's full-scale invasion began.
