russians tried to stage a fake terrorist plot attempt and their list of evidence to plant must have said "3 sims" aka 3 sim-cards for a phone, but instead someone put in literally 3 sims video game cds

Tldr: russia included 3 copies of Sims 3 in the evidence confiscated from his apartment to prove some guy was a terrorist. Edit:  Sorry, not a terrorist, but an assassination plot. Because obviously that's what 3 copies of sims 3 means. https://www.vice.com/en/article/russia-sims-3/

I am convinced it was intentional. Malicious compliance at its finest, and I hope the people behind it are safe.

Or malicious compliance. I like to think the guy who did it was trying to make it obvious it was a false flag.

For example: [https://www.vice.com/en/article/russia-sims-3/](https://www.vice.com/en/article/russia-sims-3/) >Observers believe that agents planting evidence somehow confused three mobile-phone SIM cards for the video game “The Sims 3”.

Wasn't it just last week that he was caught planning a fake assassination attempt on himself. If he holds onto power, the EU & NATO will have to kick him out (which of course will cause maga to be outraged.)

I checked some Hungarian language orban leaning sites.  The narrative is basically “Ukraine destroyed the pipeline, brave Orban is saving our energy security from the foolish EU”.  Not in one headline, but if you digest the headlines that are there.  Tbh it’s *wild* how obsessed they are with Ukraine, framing all of this as Ukraines ambitions as a threat to Hungary.

That's like fascist handbook 101.  On the one side, the country is strong and independent and it's all because of the current leader. On the other hand the the country is fragile and constantly under thread from outside forces(or minorities, opposition etc). This then gets used to blame all problems on said forces/minorities.  It's almost always like:"Look those evil people are the source of all your problems. If we get rid of them your life will be better and only I can accomplish that." And once they are done they find someone new to blame and the cycle repeats.

When Orban loses the election he needs to move to Moscow and live in a skyscraper with plenty of windows and a balcony. Traitor to all Hungarians and democracy.

He does not have the guts to involve Nato so he made a deal with one of his few friends, a non-Nato state’s leader. Also it was foretold. Literally no one cares about it here in Hungary. Especially on Easter Sunday.

Zelenskyy should troll him and offer to help investigate "this terrible terrorist plot." Kinda like how Putin convinced Agent Krasnov to let him conduct a joint US-Russia cyber security task force to protect elections and whatnot. Or when Putin offered the UK to investigate one of his tea parties.

Huh, a few hundred meters from a gas pipeline seems rather far away, to the point where a backpack worth of explosives could very well leave the pipeline entirely undamaged.
