Recently, several lively manifestos have appeared in the telegram channels of the "wives of the mobilized", which can be considered the mouthpiece of this movement, a flash mob with stickers on cars has been deployed, and now a symbol of protest is offered - a white headscarf (demonstrating historical erudition, they refer to the experience of Argentine women).

The scale of this event is difficult to understand. Several photos are presented as illustrations of the flash mob with stickers. The two real actions of the wives of the mobilized were modest: about a hundred women took part in Moscow, and about thirty people came to a closed meeting in Novosibirsk. But this is in conditions when the authorities refuse to hold protests.

It is organized rather chaotically, and its demands are partly consonant with the demands of peace-minded citizens and all those who are tired of war. And although the "wives of the mobilized" are not protected, the state will clearly behave more cautiously with them, as it always does with those whom it sees as representatives of the "deep people" (recall the actions against QR codes and universal vaccination).

Interestingly, the authorities have already tried to oppose the protesting wives of the mobilized with the "correct" wives of the mobilized, who support the NWO in everything. This is an additional illustration of the fact that the authorities are concerned about the protest of women. So far, the authorities have reacted rather cautiously, mainly through the media, and are also trying to extinguish the protest with closed meetings and the promise of individual indulgences. For now, they are more observing the situation and seeing what it will turn into.

If the protest grows, the Kremlin will face a difficult choice: to use its usual arsenal of repressive means to suppress it, which could backfire and further demoralize the mobilized themselves. Or they can try to negotiate with the protesters, although the Kremlin is not yet able to fulfill their main demand.

It is still unclear to what extent this protest is elemental and to what extent it is organized, and if so, by whom. I would not like to guess on this score without evidence, and the real wives of the mobilized, as far as can be judged, are generally not at all against the fact that they are being helped to organize, mobilize and formalize their claims. This protest certainly interferes with Putin's aggression in Ukraine, which means it is useful, although I personally do not fully understand its nature.
