I wonder if it's a cultural thing, because every ruler seems to be an autocrat no matter if they call themselves Czars, Presidents, or Prime Ministers. Are Russian politicians always willing to resort to violence making those who do not politically disadvantaged?
I'm not sure, it seems like they're just used to it.
They've never had democracy and many of the would-be heroes plus their genetic lineage have been stamped out.
