    This isn’t the key factor. Every protest that has big political change goal is potentially dangerous for those who participate, in every country. That didn’t stop Ukrainians, for example.

    But the thing that russian gov wouldn’t just go away. Even if 10 millions would be on the streets for like a month. Even if they defend against riot police instead of running away. The key figures would just stay till the bitter end. They would use army. And then what, an average russian doesn’t have a rifle at home. And who would you fight, an army?

    At this point it’s easier to just join russian corps in Ukrainian army. At least it is organized.

    But then again, they won’t get a million on the streets. And they won’t resist the riot police. Russian protest is a sad view.
