Well, one by one Russian people wont be able to do something against the regime, only huge mass protests could make a difference. But there is a catch, Putin wont just peacefully looking out from the window, he will use brutal force to suppress them, while talking about doing the right thing...Its not looking good.

There is no point to protest against dictator. Only thing that would help is following the path Romanians did with their dictator Nicolae Ceaușescu He went from having absolute power to being excecuted in four days.

And if Ceaușescu permanently hid in a mountain bunker behind a mile-long table he would have kept his head.
