Russian Mystery Deaths Continue

The mini-epidemic of clumsiness, accidental ingestion of toxic substances, and vehicular disasters is still ongoing in Russia. The latest prominent victim of an accidental fall from a window was world-class ballet dancer Vladimir Shklyarov. Of course, ballet dancers are notoriously clumsy and uncoordinated, so this was probably not a big surprise. Like this death, a number (all) of the other somewhat surprising deaths all coincidentally involved persons known to be critical of Putin. But one would certainly need to be careful about speculating about a causal relationship that accrues a mere 100% of the time, lest one be called a Putinphobe.

In general, gravity appears to be more dangerous in Communist nations. If you recall, the Chinese researcher at the Wuhan lab who was and then was totally not patient zero of COVID-19 (which disease absolutely emerged in a wet market five miles away and then promptly disappeared before it could be detected in any of the hundreds of dead animals subsequently tested) died from a fall (?) from the roof of the Wuhan lab building itself. Someone whose very existence and loose lips could simultaneously embarrass the CCP and threaten Tony Fauci's funding empire had about as much chance of survival as a flaming drag queen on the roof of an Iranian police station.
