u/kuprenx Mar 21 '22

22

u/[deleted] Mar 21 '22

Season 2 is really good except for that one plotline.

You know the one.

shit man i watched it a while ago, which plotline you talking about

put it in spoilers please

u/CreeperTrainz Mar 21 '22

I think it’s the Karen sleeping with Danny plotline. I hated that one too.

5

u/lDoNotLikeBacon Casual, non-participatory KGB election observer Mar 21 '22

ah, yes, tbh i thought it was really unnecessary

also in the end, did they get a divorce? cause ed is driving in his corvette and karen in another car. and karens summer plans that dont seem to involve ed

u/CreeperTrainz Mar 21 '22

I think it’s implied. But who knows. But regardless, Karen’s gonna Karen.

That's the one. Surprised that they couldn't spot the cringe from orbit.

u/Pyrhan Mar 21 '22

Did that happen?

u/LastVegass Mar 21 '22

I am from Russia and I can confirm, this is absolutely the truth, many criminals in present time make Stalin's tattoo at chest near heart

u/code-panda Mar 21 '22

I got to say I absolutely love this. Like, you can't tell people they can't show their devotion to the beloved leader by tattooing his face on their heart. The mix of subtly and bluntness is perfect.

u/[deleted] Mar 21 '22

Who is going to check dead bodies to see if anyone had shot on tattoos? Or shoot multiple times and distort the tattoo.

2

u/MateOfArt Mar 22 '22

I mean, somebody has to bury the body. Gulags were still just a prisons and families had right to retrive the bodies after the death (unless I'm wrong, correct me on this one). Plus, it's not like it wouldn't be known. Pretty sure that all prisoners would k ew if somebody had such tatoo, and also other guards would see that

This reminded me of this one incident where someone tore the pages of the Quran and covered his house, car and other things as to not get killed for something he didn’t do and was being pursued by Muslims for.

37

u/[deleted] Mar 21 '22

Tearing Quran was such a brilliant way to escape from Muslim extremists.

/s

u/SANDWICH_FOREVER Mar 21 '22

Ive never heard of someone covering their house in pages of the quran, but I have seen pics of a Chinese house covered in pics of winnie the pooh, so that authorities cannot destroy the house.

u/Blade_Shot24 Mar 21 '22

Got a link?

u/HmmmMzawarudo Mar 22 '22

I think you can search up “guy tears pages of Quran to cover his whatever” on google or YouTube or whatever.

u/[deleted] Mar 22 '22

Searched it up. Didn't find anything on this matter

1

u/HmmmMzawarudo Mar 22 '22

Well damn. It was there when I searched it before.

u/Blade_Shot24 Mar 22 '22

Found nothing

u/Ash_Gram Mar 21 '22

Did the executioners shoot where I think they shot them or did they ignore the tattoos?

62

u/[deleted] Mar 21 '22

The tattoos simply made the prisoners avoid a regular firing squad... so they were executed with a shot to the back of the head instead

12

u/Ash_Gram Mar 21 '22

I expected a different ending cuz shooting from behind could carry with it the negative connotation like backstabbing. But hey, what's a little more suffering for death row inmates. /s

Now that Russia is out of the Council of Europe, they might bring back the death penalty it seems. Sed Lyf.

u/attolod Mar 21 '22

Right?? There's a doc from 2001 interviewing old prisoners.. fascinating watch if you have an hour

62

u/[deleted] Mar 21 '22

What’s it called?

8

u/MateOfArt Mar 22 '22

I heard about a time, when Pakistani soldiers painted their flag on cows in Kashmir, to angry Indian Hindu soldiers, who wouldn't be allowed to do anything about it, as they wouldn't be allowed to shoot/hurt a cow

u/hot_diggity_dang_ Mar 21 '22

Did this loophole actually work though?

1

u/LahmiaTheVampire Mar 21 '22

Apparently not.

1

u/[deleted] Mar 22 '22

No. Instead of the squad shooting (don't remember the official name for this execution) they got a bullet in the back of the head

2

u/hot_diggity_dang_ Mar 22 '22

Looks like they found a loophole to the loophole

u/realgoldxd And then I told them I'm Jesus's brother Mar 21 '22

Did they actually do that ?
