[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's a bribe. Straight out of the Russian playbook. [/quote] Dictators murder people, they don’t bribe them.[/quote] Dictators do whatever they need to do to serve their own ends. For example, at this very moment Putin is propping up the Russian software industry by offering employees of certain registered companies cut rate mortgages (bribe), conscription deferral (protection from death), and other incentives. See https://www.amazon.com/Twilight-Democracy-Seductive-Lure-Authoritarianism/dp/0385545800 if you want a quick read on the authoritarian playbook. [/quote]
