Parliament Building

A Russian lawmaker and alleged Vladimir Putin loyalist was left in a coma after suffering a series of mysterious head injuries in a parliament building, RadarOnline.com has learned.

71-year-old Anatoly Karpov was hospitalized late Saturday night after allegedly “suffering a fall.” He now reportedly resides in the neurology ward of a prestigious Moscow medical institution as his “serious” condition is monitored 24/7.

According to Daily Mail, Karpov was a “Putin ultra-loyalist” before criticizing the Russian leader over his invasion of Ukraine. At one point during the invasion, Karpov reportedly called upon Putin to end the war against Ukraine “so that peaceful people will stop dying.”

“I wish [the war] would end sooner, so that peaceful people would stop dying,” he said earlier this year. “In the end ordinary people are the victims. Ordinary people fight, politicians and generals decide, and ordinary people fight, civilians die.”

1. Same thing the GOP doing here in the US.

Kill or seriously injure their opponents. Putin style.

[calimary]

11. Like Paul Pelosi maybe?

Targeted her. But she wasn’t there. So the wannabe assassin took it out on him.

And lucky for the agitators. They weren’t actually there smacking him in the head with a hammer. They incited some gullible nobody to do it by proxy. And then THEY can claim they had nothing to do with it.

[Evolve Dammit]

17. exactly how it works. And they have plenty of MAGATs "standing by" for the targets to be ID'd. nt

[Irish_Dem]

27. The GOP is forming a paramilitary group similar to Hitler's Brownshirts.

They were a violent paramilitary group who attacked opponents and created chaos division.

2. UGH.....

[Midnight Writer]

3. "a series of mysterious head injuries". I know it's not funny, but I had to laugh.

[PatSeg]

16. Yes, it is a very odd way to phrase it

I wonder if that somehow was intentional or some kind of code for political assassination attempt.

[calimary]

19. Undoubtedly.

[geardaddy]

32. Lemony Snickett's Series of Mysterious Head Injuries n/t

[littlemissmartypants]

34. To me Lemony Snickett sounds like a new flavor of Girl Scout cookie. I hope he recovers. ❤️

4. He probably lives in a 1-story building. I wonder how many times

they had to throw him out the window.

[underpants]

6. No he just slipped and fell....38 times

[louis-t]

7. So clumsy. Reminds me (again) of an episode of Just Shoot Me.

Elliot meets a former love and regrets not marrying her. They meet at a restaurant and she tells him about her life. She met a man and they sailed off for a trip around the world. Unfortunately, he fell off the boat and drowned. Then she met another man and they went on a fishing trip. Unfortunately, he fell off the boat and drowned. She met a third man, but he died also. Elliot, with a concerned look on his face says "Wait, don't tell me he drowned?" She says "No, he accidentally shot himself in the back with a speargun."

[underpants]

8. That's funny.

5. Putin know that it is "allies" that he needs to fear most.

His misadventure is humiliating Russia and making it look "weak."

Militant-nationalists don't like "weak" strong-men.

Bad sign for Putin.

9. Slipped and fell

On his way over to the window, I presume.

Lucky guy!

[CaptainTruth]

10. Head injuries from a hammer?

[nycbos]

12. Let me guess...

... he fell out of a window?

[Turbineguy]

13. I heard trump criticizing Putin.

[JudyM]

36. Yes, I heard that too.

[Traildogbob]

14. Hammers

Are becoming the weapon of choice for Trump/Putin mobs. Maybe we need to holster powerful nail guns to counter.

[dchill]

15. He was a damned fool to think this would end any other way.

[SunSeeker]

18. K & R for exposure.

[Evolve Dammit]

20. The prison way is a "lock in a sock." Gross. You know it was something similar for Mr. Karpov.

And MAGATs are ok with this shit. They idolize Putin, Orban, the Orange Chosen One and want "blood in the streets" as Leningrad Lindsey said. He was right. We have a real problem coming, and I hope law enforcement is ready.

[Effete Snob]

21. Gotta put up those "wet floor" signs

[maxsolomon]

22. That was barely criticism.

The FSB is patrolling every nail for any hint it might stick up.

23. Anatoly Karpov,

born: May 23, 1951 (age 71 years), Zlatoust, Russia.

GM (Grand Master) Anatoly Karpov was the 12th world champion and reigned from 1975 to 1985 while also being the FIDE world champion from 1993 to 1999.

In 1975, American Bobby Fischer refused to defend his title when an agreement could not be reached with FIDE, chess's international governing body, over the match conditions. Consequently, the Soviet challenger Anatoly Karpov was named World Champion by default.

24. Not THE Anatoly Karpov?

..former world chess champion?

[LisaL]

25. One and the same.

They had quite a battle going with Kasparov.

[Mr.Mystery]

35. HOLY COW! Karpov is a chess genius.

Kasparov, who eventually wrested the world championship from him, is probably the smartest man I've ever heard speak. He hates Putin's guts btw.

[thomski64]

26. Not THE Anatoly Karpov?

..the chess champion?

[IronLionZion]

28. "series of mysterious head injuries"

Yeah I hate when that happens. So mysterious. Especially a series of them.

30. How brutal

They aren't even bothering to hide the political deaths anymore.

[Hekate]

33. I don't think they ever did, because terrorizing the opposition is the point

[Hekate]

31. Such as might happen by being dragged down a stone staircase by his ankles. Is that it?
