"Putin neither sees nor hears the truth": Chinese on political battles in Russia

April 25 2026 51 313 89

Chinese users of the qq.com resource commented on two recent high-profile events in public The life of the Russian Federation – a public appeal by actress Victoria Boni to Russian President Vladimir Putin and a statement by the head of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation faction, Gennady Zyuganov, about the possibility of a "revolution" in Russia similar to the 1917 one. Both episodes were mentioned in the same text.

The publication also mentioned talk show host Vladimir Solovyov as "one of Bonya's main public opponents," who commented on her appeal in an extremely harsh manner.

There are over five hundred comments on this post. The opinions expressed are those of their authors alone.

An excessively powerful Russia, capable of challenging the entire world, is good for China, but a weak, easily intimidated Russia is undesirable. A stable, governable Russia, moderately dependent on China, is good. And the current situation largely fits this description.

While the country is at war, economy is experiencing difficulties and is facing numerous sanctions. Most Chinese certainly understand this simple truth. After all, we've been through something similar ourselves and know how difficult it is.

Vladimir Solovyov, you can refute Bonya's arguments, but it's not nice to resort to personal attacks!

Every country has its problems, as well as its shortcomings. Focus on strengths and don't exaggerate weaknesses; instead, gradually correct them. Those who focus only on shortcomings are certainly pursuing hidden agendas.

The Russian Communist Party has warned that 1917 could repeat itself. Is this truly a sense of crisis, or is it simply an opportunity to take another swipe at the current government?

Frankly, stability depends not on the wealth of the rich, but on the number of poor and the size of the gap between them. As the old saying goes, "It's not the scarcity that worries us, but the inequality"—something our ancestors taught us long ago.

First, the Russian economy is undoubtedly in dire straits, given the significant impact of the war and subsequent Western sanctions. Second, this situation hasn't yet compromised the country's survival. Russia is resource-rich and has no shortage of agricultural products or industrial raw materials. Given the resilience of the Russian people, protests are still a long way off. Third, we must be wary of public discontent. After all, Russia has a democratically elected government, and excessive public discontent is real. If it does escalate into street protests, the West will undoubtedly add fuel to the fire.

The Russian economy has been stalling for a long time, ever since the Soviet era. Western observers believe Russia should have collapsed as early as 2023 or 2024, but it's holding up so far. This also reminds me of the "China collapse theory." According to Western narratives, China should have collapsed and disintegrated by now. There are still plenty of trolls online claiming China has a multitude of problems.

In a war situation, I think Putin did an excellent job. And you, who left for another country to enjoy comfort, what right do you have to say such things?

The blogger is simply a man of honor, a voice of society who has revealed the truth that Putin neither sees nor hears.

After the collapse of the USSR, Russia deteriorated, going from the second most powerful country to a second-tier one. If not for the nuclear arsenal inherited from the Soviet Union, Russia's global position would have been even more insignificant. For example, Russia's GDP is equivalent to that of Guangdong Province!

Both the economic downturn in Russia and the stagnation in China over the past two years are not isolated phenomena, but rather part of a broader global crisis. We must consider how to leverage the complementarity of the Chinese and Russian economies, combine their strengths to overcome their weaknesses, and achieve common development to emerge from this recessionary cycle.

Is Putin solely to blame for the current difficult economic situation? And how else can he act in the face of encirclement by hostile Western countries, America's allies? China has also faced difficulties in previous years; the only way to overcome them is to unite and work together to become stronger. Even when [unfriendly states] continue to impose various restrictions.

An important detail noted by Zyuganov:
Numerous appeals from deputies passed unnoticed by the presidential apparatus and the government.... But one speech by Victoria Bonya raised a storm....
Well, now the heavy artillery has come into play - the Chinese commentators... Now it will reach the very top.

This is a characteristic of rulers. Does anyone actually do what they're supposed to do and what they're paid for?

  Political opponents of the current government raised a storm over Peskov's response, using it as an excuse to attack the Russian president. Peskov merely responded to the question of whether he had heard from Bonya. As the Russian president's press secretary, Peskov is required by his position to read public information, including from all sorts of narrow-minded bloggers.
  Bonya's speech was aimed at PR. She succeeded (everyone has already forgotten about this relocated woman). Zyuganov and the communists also reminded everyone of their presence, concocting some nonsense about the possibility of a repeat of the 1917 revolution (ordinary Russian citizens are unaware of such a hypothetical possibility unless politicians promote it). There is no revolutionary situation now, and there is no workers' movement like the one in 1917.
  Bloggers used Bonya's speech to stir public opinion to convey their discontent with Telegram's closure to the authorities, and they succeeded. The bloggers' motive for this "stirring up" was the lost revenue from restricting Telegram use and, consequently, reducing advertising costs on their Telegram channels. Everyone is happy (or unhappy).
  Personally, I don't give a damn about Bonya, Telegram, or the communists.

The foundations of faith in the Russian President's GDP are shaken. It seems Zyuganov is predicting the arrival of 1905, the result of the Japanese War (SW1), a harbinger of major events. Conclusion: with each passing year, dissatisfaction with the Russian government and its problems increases, and there's not much time left to reach critical mass...

  Yes it is.
  I will add:
  This year, Western sanctions will have an even more negative impact on our economy, leading to a decline in household incomes.
  The West is increasing its arms aid to Ukraine, which, in addition to causing material damage, creates a negative image of a helpless government.
  The LBS has been in place for almost six months, barely making any progress, and at this rate, we'll have to fight for a very long time, which Russia won't be able to withstand given the current state of affairs in the military-industrial complex and the Ministry of Defense. The economy could also collapse.
  Putin is afraid to use nuclear weapons. He wants to appear saintly, but:
  A wise proverb says: "He who wants to wage war in white gloves will end it in white slippers."
  And the only effective means against the simultaneous attacks of thousands of drones that plague us is currently tactical nuclear weapons.
  This is the sofa layout in my opinion.

    In the current situation, Russia's use of nuclear weapons will be perceived not as a sign of strength, but rather as a sign of critical weakness and complete inadequacy. Nuclear weapons may not be used against our country, but economic isolation and sanctions will become total, and most importantly, China will be forced to join them. And our economy cannot withstand isolation from both the West and the East.
    And what's even more important is that even the magically achieved fulfillment of the so-called "all strategic military objectives" will now be of no benefit to Russia, as we've demonstrated our weakness to everyone, especially ourselves, over the past four years. And no tactical nuclear weapons can solve this problem, but they can easily deepen it!

      You rightly said that the use of nuclear weapons is a sign of weakness and inadequacy. Nuclear weapons are used as a last resort by the losing side when there are no other means left to achieve victory. I believe that such means still exist if the Kremlin starts fighting, and not whining about the SVO... but I think Putin is incapable of doing this. This scapegoat from the 90s can only engage in behind-the-scenes deals.

      Critical weakness? Why is that? What is this weakness? I don't understand.
      And what about complete inadequacy? That's both good and bad. At least in Europe, they'll think that "insane Putin???" could easily launch a nuclear attack, and that we need to back off.
      There is no need to exaggerate the problem.

      TNWs could solve the problem of winning the war over Ukraine, while simultaneously creating a host of problems in relations with the rest of the world, even with allies. But UAV raids are forcing Russia to decide whether to fight with full force or make peace. Russia is unlikely to dictate the terms of peace, otherwise we wouldn't be so stubbornly pursuing peace since 2022.

        In both cases, it's a miss. North Korea is heavily dependent on sanctions. Even though its territory is tiny, and its resources are clearly insufficient. But if they are completely closed, they won't die out. And they won't complain.
        Historically, the USSR was quite self-sufficient to create a closed economy. And it clearly didn't collapse because of a closed economy.
        But that no longer fits within the scope of the dispute.
        
        So, it's possible to create something closed and viable. The question is, why?
        Answer: so that the oncoming crowd of “partners” wouldn’t trample them with their herd.
        For example: imagine your neighbors decide to impose restrictions on your access to your apartment and won't let you in. And you're homeless on the streets. Would you like this kind of dependence on "partners"? However, if you don't see the connection between the example and the question, you don't need to bother answering. This dialogue isn't meant to be a fight, after all.

      Hiroshima and Nagasaki, despite the deliberate bombing, now live and thrive in the same place.
      Kyiv remains intact despite the Chernobyl reactor explosion. A reactor explosion is a thousand times worse in consequences than the explosions of several high-yield nuclear bombs, due to the reactor's heavy load of radioactive materials and the far worse composition of radionuclides.

    As Ilyich wrote, the difference between a revolution and a revolutionary situation is the presence of a powerful, united Communist Party, ready to seize power and defend it in the interests of the working people. Alas, such a party is nowhere to be seen today, not even through a telescope. There is no guiding or controlling force. This means there will only be grumbling, or at most, some unrest. But nothing that will seriously threaten bourgeois power.

      Note: Historically, as revolutionary movements develop, leading figures quickly emerge. Especially many emerged after 1917, but the victors consigned most of them to oblivion. An extreme example is B. Yeltsin, the next regional First Secretary, who became a leader and had a fundamental influence on the development of revolutionary transformations in the Russian Federation. How he influenced them is another matter. Conclusion: Times of great change always produce new leaders.

    A conspiracy of bureaucrats has set the fall of power for 2028, when enemies of the people will begin bombing all Russian citizens with drones. Officials are already preparing a revolution when almost all Russian citizens will suddenly find themselves under the treacherous aggression of land inspectors for the sake of useless development standards invented by officials. The government in Russia will be overthrown. This will be a revolution like 1905. Unfortunately, it will not be the extortionist officials but ordinary police officers who will get the slap in the face.
    In 2030, a second revolution like 1917 will begin, because enemies of the people from the land inspectorate will begin bombing individual housing construction owners with drones, and then the government will lose all popular support. Because the Russian Guards and their relatives are also landowners. Rosreestr, for example, routinely banned all livestock on individual housing construction plots with the stroke of a pen, and no one noticed. If someone keeps a pheasant, officials will take away your land, and private property is not protected from their lawlessness.
    7 If the government begins to openly rob the people through the lawlessness of officials, then such a government
    
    The people don't need it. They don't need a corrupt court that always sides with the traffic police extortionists. They don't need all these GOST regulations that always prohibit everything, but only legitimize bureaucratic lawlessness and corruption. Where do such terms as "shadow" fleet, "illegal" house, "illegal" minibus come from? "illegal" chicken? This is bureaucratic absurdity!

We knew what was, we'll find out what will happen. Having one friend like China is no longer necessary. Revolutions don't happen on their own; they require enormous resources. Zyuganov should know how much money the German General Staff spent on V.I. Lenin's revolution in Russia. Currently, the Russian government resembles the government of the Russian Empire under Nicholas II. Figuratively speaking, instead of solving the country's problems, we're busy taking pictures, and that's sad.

Russia has a democratically elected government, and widespread public discontent is real. If it truly escalates into street protests, the West will undoubtedly add fuel to the fire.

A delusional article, Zyuganov’s delusions – what revolution?
This SVO redistributed funds, “tax accounting of income began,” the economic recovery began, and so on?
Previously, enormous amounts of money and oil flowed from Russia abroad, not into the Russian treasury, but now, after the end of the Second World War, these already accounted for funds will go to the benefit of Russia; the war has taught us how to use income correctly.
Yet:
The USA is no longer a leader, not a world policeman, and that is the main thing!
Also: China and Europe have raised their heads. But we are already scientists!!!
There are downsides to all of this, but maybe we just don't understand it with our simple minds:
These are red lines and the leader's predictability, but we haven't seen the outcome yet—maybe everything is being done correctly...
Something like that - no need to talk revolutionary nonsense, nonsense is just that - nonsense!

They offer minimal military assistance to their neighbors, buying up our resources cheaply, taking advantage of the inaccessibility of other markets.

There have always been, are, and always will be dissatisfied people. And that's good and right. The seeds of freedom of speech, hope, and faith must break through the propaganda asphalt. When the government withdraws into itself, stops communicating with the people, tightens the screws, and increases pressure, tension in society increases, and such manifestations of discontent will arise more frequently. But we're a long way from a revolutionary situation; too many people are satisfied with the current state of the country; the elite is rowing like crazy and can't stop. They won't let the boat rock, even if the harshest measures are taken.

How I love these kinds of articles, and especially the comments to them.
One emancipated homemaker-2 decided to hype things up, like, "Vladimir Vladimirovich, everyone's so afraid of you..." I can't stop laughing, she's so afraid of him that so many are hiding in Monaco that she'll soon forget Russian, but her soul is aching, and she definitely knows the country's hottest topics, watching TV so she doesn't forget the language. And the endangered species are suffering. There are heavy rains and casualties in Dagestan, but blocking Telegram is just too much! Yes, of course, there are casualties, but what does that have to do with you, Bonya!!!
All the local malcontents and Ukrainians woke up at once and started shouting like crazy, "All is lost!" and "Save Russia!" Grandpa Zyu, instead of writing his memoirs at the apiary, is also polluting the air. Overall, the public outcry is resonating.
But essentially, instead of whining and denunciating, you just need to get things done. Do them well. And be able to spot the provocateurs. And point them out to everyone. And on this site, every second person is "critical mass."

China managed to unite and overcome its difficulties because it still has a state ideology under the leadership of the Communist Party and an Asian mentality. But we are now a true, and a deeply rooted, capitalist country. Why should China help us? China is using us, exploiting our weakness and dependence to achieve its own goals. The current government has led the country into a dead end with no apparent way out. At least not under this regime. Like any government, it is unwilling to admit its mistakes and, as a result, only worsens the situation. This is usually resolved by replacing the leadership with new ones, which allows for course correction, but in our case, it seems irreplaceable. They have been the same people for over a quarter of a century. Some were born under this regime and have now reached adulthood.

After all, Russia has a democratically elected government,

References to some notorious democracy, in particular to a “democratically elected government,” are tiresome.
There was no democracy in the USSR, just democracy. A candidate called "Against All" was always on the electoral list. And people sometimes voted for this candidate. If this candidate were added to the lists now, where would the democracycrats be? That's it. True, for him to win, fair elections would be necessary, and that's a fantasy.

Well, Peskov heard the people and showed up:

The President receives reports on all incidents on a regular basis, several times a day, and at any time of the day if necessary.

Apparently, the Supreme Commander has become accustomed to such horrific and routine reports, receiving them several times a day and failing to respond as a Supreme Commander should with clear demands and assigned tasks. Instead, he relies on false reports from military personnel about countermeasures taken, seeking to curry favor, deliver only good news, and earn a hero's approval. The countermeasures are not very effective. In the fifth year of the war, we're banging our heads against the wall, and the Ukrainian Armed Forces' attacks are only intensifying. The population has been telling us where to strike for five years now, and our enemies, like the US and Israel, regularly point this out. All these published addresses of military production facilities in Europe, where they manufacture drones for Ukraine to destroy Russian civilians and critical infrastructure, are all empty scare mongering; no one is lifting a finger to implement effective measures against the sponsors and instigators of war. Just imagine the reaction of the US and Israel to daily attacks and the murder of their populations. I predict: if Bankova and Grushevsky Streets in Kyiv aren't demolished, and at least warning shots aren't fired at factories in Germany and England, then nothing will change, and the strategist's approval rating will plummet, much less the party's in the State Duma elections... No one needs such an unconvincing war.

The Chinese have always considered us barbarians; they were surprised, like everyone else, by the October Revolution and, most importantly, its consequences. For them, with their state ruled by bureaucrats for millennia, this was familiar and understandable. It's easy to understand China: "China first," so how should they help? What's in their interests? On the contrary, the weaker Russia, the easier it is to coerce it into free energy supplies. China as far as the Urals, everything is fine; the more Slavs perish, the easier it is for them. The problem is that they had to think about home, not read news reports on the screen about how bad things are with the neighbors.

Let me try to convince you otherwise. In Japan, if you lose a wallet with money in it and it has your address, they'll bring it home to you. Do you think the government is to blame for that? New goods, not resale ones, have price tags and they're the same in all stores, copied from the USSR. We don't have a rotating government, but the USSR didn't really have one either, and the strict centralization of power, the economy, even culture ultimately controlled the collapse. Whose fault is that? In many "true democracies," judges are elected, so people are afraid, like district police officers. We had some of that too, for example, voting "against all"—we removed it and replaced ballots with electronic voting so it couldn't be verified. But the problem remains: our laws don't apply—for the serfs, yes, but for the authorities and oligarchs, no. There are countless examples. The Wagner PMC violated two serious articles of the constitution—the creation of illegal armed groups. Someone was held accountable, and Prigozhin's mutiny, with its resulting deaths, is the consequence. Remember the death of Governor Yevdokimov, when many drove around with "We Are All Shcherbinskys" stickers? A rare case, but the authorities got scared, overturned the sentence, and released the innocent man. The economy is simpler; there needs to be peace (a stable national currency, laws, non-interference by government agencies) and competition. Putin or anyone else can't ensure this. Who can they rely on—the oligarchs, the government officials? The people? But how can they accomplish this? His own people will remove him if he tries. This is what we call political contradictions: when the masses are dissatisfied, but the government can't.
It was previously written here that we have no parties that could compete, meaning we have no one to fear. Let me remind you that political parties are created for one purpose only: to seize power. Now you can figure out for yourself whether we have parties and whether they can influence change.
It's stupid to talk about Zyuganov, because his statement is pure populism. So, you can be outraged, but it won't do any good. Putin is simply a hostage to the system.

That's the problem: to get things done, you need clear conditions. Let's take history as a lesson: under Stalin, factories were state-owned, but there were also collectives—artels. The latter received raw materials from state factories at fixed prices, while payment for the artels' output was based on state rates. If you wanted to earn money, you had to work harder and better. The ruble was stable. Why did Primakov and Gerashchenko quickly stop currency speculation and, as a result, inflation? Many bloggers raise money for various causes, and the question always arises: why don't you start a small business yourself, earn money, and give it all away wherever you want? But you don't want to work, understanding how the country works. So start with yourself. For example, go into retail, compete with national retail chains, and then write about how you used your earnings to promote 1000 stores of your brand. Or create a car manufacturing plant, create competition for AvtoVAZ, and when you demonstrate your successes, share them here, so we can be happy for you. People are complaining about Nabiullina here, but she knows they're issuing money without any backing. You should have gotten busy, shut down the machines, and maybe they'd have lowered the rate faster.
