Tim reframes Prigozhin's rise as a 'shift in strategy' rather than redemption, comparing it to Goldman Sachs's similar strategy, and mentions his ex Shia calling him spiritually Russian.
- Tim outlines the optimal crime strategy: commit crimes with the government instead of against it, using Goldman Sachs as an example of the same realization.
- Prigozhin's pivot wasn't redemption but a shift in strategy, starting with hot dogs and escalating to Wagner PMC and the Internet Research Agency.
- Tim describes how Prigozhin evolved into running a troll farm, the Internet Research Agency, for which he was indicted in America supposedly over election interference.
- The irony of Americans cheering Prigozhin's march on Moscow while he was supposedly the guy who destroyed American democracy through election interference.
- Tim notes Prigozhin's fate was predictable for anyone who's read about Russian culture and politics.
