    We’re making fun of the death of Prigojine, an even more horrible human being, so it makes things even

        We hate him because he’s the creator of Wagner, a company that kills and torture peoples.

        Putin hates him because he’s the creator of Wagner, a company that’s trying to kill and torture more people than him, which is unacceptable.

          Pretty inaccurate. Putin had no problem letting the Wagnar kill more than the army in Ukraine, he killed Prigo because he led a mutiny against Moscow

          Utkin, also supposedly on the plane today, founded Wagner. He was the one actually leading the march on Moscow.

          Parts of the Kremlin hated him for treason, parts supported him. The Russian general who was recently fired supposedly supported Wagner, along with a number of others in the military. That’s why he took Rostov-on-Don so easily.

        Different things to get the ire of both. He’s widely loathed outside of Russia, to include here, for the brutality that the PMC he ran was known for. He got the ire of Putin for recently using that same PMC to try a rebellion against his government.

        Putin hates him because he attempted treason, I hate him because he attempted treason. We’re not the same.
