“We’ve always been a violent country, thought Volk, ruled by successive bands of ruthless autocrats, each crew more oppressive than the one they supplanted: three hundred years of pillaging by Romanovs, eighty-odd years of totalitarian terror under Marxists, Leninists, Stalinists, Bolsheviks, and Communists, and, for the past three decades, first under Yeltsin, then Putin, a return to something like a monarchy, now rebranded as “democracy,” but in reality a criminal organization masquerading as a government, or, maybe, a government masquerading as a criminal organization; historians would debate it for years.”
― Jay Newman, Undermoney
