Policing in Russia has not exactly been great – and it's getting worse.

Russia has one of the largest police forces in the world, employing over 900,000 officers to serve a population of 146 million, according to the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs. It has nearly 630 officers per 100,000 people - more than double the US or the UK. But in August, Interior Ministry Chief Vladimir Kolokoltsev said the country had a "critical" shortage of police officers, which could affect crime rates. How can that be the case, given the sheer number of officers?

In real terms, Putin has defunded the police. You get what you pay for.

"They haven't adjusted the salary at all," a former officer from Rostov, in southwest Russia, said. "After inflation and the new prices, it's not enough." He quit to become a taxi driver. His friend, who was also a police officer, is now a courier. Both of them earn twice as much as they did as police officers. "I reached the rank of major (the equivalent to a sergeant in the UK). But still a person working at a supermarket earned more than me - hardly dangerous work. Only an idiot would join the police now," the former officer from Rostov said. [ ... ] As the number of officers drops, the pressures on those who remain increase. Former officers have told the BBC this is leading to corruption. "Officers are beating confessions out of people, inflating arrest quotas, we're seeing this all the time," says a police major from the Russian city of Tomsk. "It's only going to get worse. There will be falsification of evidence, targeted beatings, there just isn't going to be time to investigate anything properly. "You've got a lead and you need to chase it? Much simpler to drag the first suspect back to the station and beat him up, so he takes the blame."

The war in Ukraine, of course, is making things worse.

Initially, the war convinced some officers to stay in the force. Russian police officers are exempt from being called up for military duty, so some officers who were on the verge of resigning when Russia invaded Ukraine told us they kept their jobs to avoid fighting. [ ... ] But as the war rumbles on, police numbers are dwindling. The force cannot fill existing gaps - let alone recruit the 40,000 extra personnel that the Interior Ministry says is needed in Donetsk and Luhansk, areas of Ukraine that Russia partly occupies.

Russia needs more police for the areas it illegally annexed in Ukraine.

Russia predicts it will need another 42,000 officers by 2026 if it occupies further territories. For serving police officers, having an opinion about the war is simply not allowed. They are not even allowed to call it a war. "Officers must keep their mouths shut," one detective says. "We can't have personal views about the 'special military operation' - or they'll fire us." [ ... ] Interior Ministry officials from the three Russian cities of Tomsk, Yekaterinburg and Yaroslavl claim they now spend most of their time investigating and revising "endless charges against people discrediting the army". "People are always looking for an excuse to denounce someone," a former major from Tomsk says. "There's nobody around... Everyone's gone to check on some grandma who saw a curtain that looked like the Ukrainian flag.

It's like the Stalin era in Russia – people are denouncing each other for fun and profit. Every time somebody complains to the police about real or (more likely) imagined pro-Ukraine sympathies or criticism of the war, the cops need to open a new investigation which keeps them from doing more typical police work.

The police situation is yet another way Russia is rotting from within.

My lovely policemen :3 1st and 3rd asked me to take a photo as did their partners and 2nd said that his portrait is good. I am surprised how friendly and cheerful they became when you draw them.

As you can hear from the audio recording of my call to the FSB about the persecution, I said at the end of the conversation: "A neighbor from apartment number 57 said that his harassment towards me is his work for the FSB!"

When the neighbors were talking loudly, I could hear through the walls or the hood where the neighbor from the apartment at the address: Kaliningrad st. Aldanskaya 30 sq. 57 (Labov Nikita Sergeevich - the son of the mother-prosecutor) told his girlfriend that this was his work for the FSB.

Deliberate noise day and night, constant surveillance of me on hidden video cameras, remote access to the image from the screen of my computers, broadcasting hidden video recordings and screen images from my smartphone to other neighbors - this is his work for the FSB (this is how this guy explained his suspicious activity to his girlfriend ).

On October 18, 2022, I could not attend a personal appointment with the head of the FSB in the Kaliningrad region, as I was illegally in a madhouse.

I was also surprised by the phrase of the ambulance brigade, which illegally handcuffed me and drove me from the apartment in a car to a lunatic asylum. An employee of this brigade told me: "This is what happens to those who complain about the FSB! You know how to complain about the FSB!"

Also, the most adequate and reasonable nurse in my psychiatric department (male) was talking to a nurse about another former nurse. He said that in case of conflict situations, that former nurse constantly showed him that he had relations with the FSB and it was better not to conflict with him in a madhouse (I accidentally overheard this conversation when I was sitting on the sofa near the nurses' room).

The fact is that those people who are persecuting me, apparently, they have devices like "Van Eck phreaking" (devices for remotely intercepting images from monitors of other people's computer devices).This is a device for special services.

I attached an audio call to the FSB to this post.

I feel like a lot of people in the fandom tend to forget this, so I'm just here to give a kind, thoughtful reminder :]

Ambrosius Goldenloin in the movie is an East Asian man (Korean-coded), his skin is tan, his eyes are monolid and his nose is big

He's voiced by Eugene Lee Yang - a Korean-American actor who also has Chinese and Japanese heritage. Eugene Lee Yang looks like this:

During the production, when Ambrosius was decided to be East Asian, artists looked up queer East Asian-American men, and based Ambrosius off of them. Ambrosius is literally drawn to look like Eugene Lee Yang

Please draw him as such, thank you

The core of the capitalist state is formed of bodies of armed men and women. You could strip away everything else except for soldiers, police, and prisons, and you would still have the state. Everything else is optional, but a minority ruling class cannot rule without armed force. They need this both to defend their property and profits from radical movements at home, and to defend their empires and national interests abroad.

But it wasn’t Franco’s forces that ended the anarchist revolution – ironically it was the supposed communists on the Republican side which who were controlled by the Soviet Union who squelched the revolution in exchange for Soviet aid and weapons. Why would they do this?

In theory, the anarchists were accomplishing all the goals that the Soviet Union was aiming for. The theoretical justification for the dominance of the communist party of the USSR was that it was supposed to guide the country through industrialization to increase productive capacity enough so that there would be enough material plenty for communism to exist – and once that happens, the state is supposed to become obsolete and you just have a world of freely associating communes and cooperatives.

And this is exactly what the anarchists were putting into practice directly, without having to go through any intermediary dictatorship phase. But of course, the fact that the anarchists were putting worker controlled socialism directly into practice democratically without any party or bureaucratic dictatorship was as an existential threat to the Soviet elite, and therefore the anarchists socialism could not be tolerated.

The activity of any Russian prosecutor's office in the case of murky corrupt actions of MIA, FSB employees is reduced to the usual replies, regardless of the level of the prosecutor's office: the district prosecutor's office, the regional prosecutor's office, the district prosecutor's office, the prosecutor general's office.

When I previously lived at the address: Kaliningrad st. Kartashova 28 D apt. 8 and complained to prosecutors at various levels, no one helped me. They did not help because high-ranking MIA officials were involved in illegal activities there.

Now, when I live at the address: Kliningrad st. Aldanskaya house 30 ap. 54 and a neighbor from the regional prosecutor's office is acting against me, then the prosecutor's office, all the more, does not help.

The Russian prosecutor's office is a rather meaningless structure in terms of protecting its legal rights.

I attached one of the typical responses of the prosecutor's office to my questions to this post.

Incredibly Weak

In the wake of Alexei Navalny’s murder by the Russian fascist state, his message to the Russian people, at the end of the award-winning documentary film Navalny, has been quoted ten thousand times and turned into a meme on social media, to wit: “If they decide to kill me, we are incredibly strong,” he said, addressing Russian citizens. “The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil, is for…
