    A regime like Putin’s is stable until it suddenly is not. Russia has a lot of dark times ahead of it.

      Russians honestly are mostly waiting for those times; chaos is frightening, but stable decline into a dystopia is even worse.

      Besides, keeping on with “stable” regime means losing many, many lives; possibly way more than a radical change can entail. But that depends on who and how comes to power.
