Oh fuck off with that Kremlin propaganda of colour revolutions. Even if Gen Z protests has external influence, what is so bad about promoting democracy and end of government corruption? As bad as Western interference has been in the past, the colour revolutions tend to be influenced by soft power and no right wing elements. Would you call the French Revolution a colour revolution because it was influenced by the American revolution? Or the overthrow of Chinese Imperial dynasty by Sun Yat-sen because it was influenced by European liberalism? But I bet you aren't saying anything about Russian-influenced far right movements because you're a useful idiot for Kremlin!
Kremlin is trying to demonize the colour revolutions because it will undermine their own personal power. It was Putin who helped Lukashenko violently put down protests in Belarus and those in Kazakhstan. If democratic change happens in Russia and their satellite states, their own kleptocratic regimes will decline and their own hold to power. That's why they demonize colour revolutions despite being organic. Autocratic governments and sock puppets like yourself do everything in their power to de-legitimise grassroots movements that undermine the ruling class' hold to power.
tell that to a third worlder (you are). take a long hard look at your history of sponsoring regime change in the entire world. here is a quick look.
please don't be unhinged. not everything you disagree with is russian propaganda.
And not every revolution you don't like is CIA-coup. Oh right, nuance doesn't exist with .ml. Of course it is in your interest and your pay masters to muddy the water. Again, even if there was external influence on colour revolutions, where is the indication that there is right wing authoritarian elements on these revolutions like before? Oh wait, for the typical tankies, the only legitimate form of revolutions is if it's a violent one led by your OWN authoritarian and imperial ideals. As expected, you haven't even called out the right wing movements funded by Kremlin.
i don't know that much about bulgaria, and i'd guess you don't either. but it does look off from the all times the exact same thing was reported elsewhere overnight too. and on other places i know a little more about.
i don't claim to know exactly wtf is happening. you are the one who seem to be obsessed with making this about "kremlin" instead for some reason. i don't see any connection at all.
If you don’t know anything about what’s going on, what grounds are you basing these movements being suspicious off of?
mexico had one just like these but turns out it was boomer far-righters in a weird grift, one piece flags and all, media calling it "gen-z". nepal has an uncertain as fuck future last i looked, with a previously unknown leader. and this one looks just as weird while looking exactly the same somehow, but on the other side of the globe.
i always question this every time these things pop up, but it seems nobody else has any idea either (or some anger about me even daring to question it).
Boomers aren't Gen Z.
The previous Nepali government, before being overthrown, literally stole tax payers money and flaunted their wealth and then tried to violently put down peaceful protestors, until people fought back and stormed the palace.
You are just anti-democratic. You will just call everything a CIA sponsored coup or colour revolutions except for the illiberal ones you personally approve of.
if you are so offended by my mere suggestion your country just might have done something it commonly does, or coming up with a whole rant about how bad some other country is despite your century-long history of doing the very things you are so mad at them for, you should look inside a bit instead of being so mad at me for considering it.
you should heed my advice of studying your own imperial history. read up a bit on that link i sent you. have a nice day.
I'm not American, dum dum. Are you a bot repeating talking points like an NPC? Will you ever call out the long history of your pay master's imperialism and interference in Eastern Europe, Siberia, Caucasus and Central Asia?
i don't really see you bother with the long history of your pay master's imperialism in pretty much the entire planet, for the last 100 years in this thread. i bet venezuelans about to be thrilled with you yet again. a bit like palestinians. or you know, much of everyone else.
if you stop sounding like a spoiled fascist westerner that tries to blame your violence on everyone else, nobody will call you out for being one.
also practice what you preach. give it a little read: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_involvement_in_regime_change
have a nice day.
I don't lament the decline of the American empire. I am yet to see you explicitly denounce the imperialism of YOUR paymasters.

"I am biased to look the other way."
look the other way from what exactly.
don't you have better places to let out your hate? or any reason at all we should be talking about russia in a thread about bulgaria?
"I will call out Western interference but I won't call out Russia propping up illiberal regimes because I am in Kremlin's pocket."
"i will obsessively call out someone else where its not related because i can't confront my own country's doings"
see? i can be an ass too, just like you!
