As the link below attests, Russian news source of the “left-center” reports a peace protest march to have taken place near St. Basil’s Cathedral in Moscow has been prevented by Russian security police. The appearance of a monolithic approach is downright Stalinist—and should forever separate such actions from those of the US except in the minds of die hard “blame America first” types .

I found no protests videos inside Russia on YouTube. This one instructs Russians not to put up any stupid comments as they will be taken down.

Yes,
The FSB, successor to the KGB is quite effective and getting bolder.You Tube is an easy and crudely simple target. You may note in the article [not a video] that a Georgian singer who was awarded a Russian cultural prize has just rejected it. Protest is going further underground. The subtle action of quiet Estonian activists in 1960 [reference my previous post “backward flag” will become more common.
