Not sure why you are being downmodded, there's no need for "Russian" to be in the title here.

This is a very common trope from alt-right media. If the culprit is ever black, Muslim, or an immigrant, they will absolutely let you know in the headline.




There have been 5 major incidents at the ISS since 2018 that could have led to loss of the station if it were caught later. One of which was only ameliorated by a module running out of fuel.

The problem here appears to be that the quality standards of roscosmos is in steep decline.

This is why Russia is in the title.

Now if you want to draw the linkage between the Ukraine war and regressions to their space program, the evidence is certainly there, but I think this story stands quite well on its own.


Doesn't alt right love Russia and especially Putin? How did it get on your "black, Muslim, or an immigrant" shortlist?


Yes, the far-right in North America and Western Europe loves Russia.


Classic case of enemy of my enemy
