Z-propagandists Are Sounding The Alarm

The fuel crisis is back.

While the Kremlin and Russia’s state-run media remain silent, the return of the fuel crisis has become the main topic among Z-bloggers. “Dialog” examined the details.

For the Z-Channel program “Soldiers of Fortune,” the situation came as a surprise, because they hadn’t noticed any “serious” strikes on Russian refineries. “What’s going on with gasoline again? It doesn’t seem like there have been any serious strikes on refineries recently. Things had just returned to normal, and now there are problems again. Anyone driving on the M4 (highway—ed.), keep in mind that there are long lines, and gas isn’t available at every station. It’s better not to let your tank run completely dry. It’s also getting tight in major cities,” he wrote.

Another propaganda channel, “MIG Russia,” noted the onset of a “new fuel reality” in Russia. “Filling up without waiting in line in Moscow is a thing of the past… Even at 10 p.m., you have to wait quite a while. Many gas stations are closed… The current situation, with lines at gas stations slowly but surely getting longer, is bad because this is definitely not just a ‘panic,’ and it won’t subside as quickly as it did the first time… It’s a new fuel reality, man,” noted the Z-channel.

Z-Channel actress and propagandist Yana Poplavskaya noted that her husband was unable to fill up his car in the Moscow region even at dawn. “At 5:30 a.m., he tried to fill up at several gas stations in the Moscow region. At the ‘Gazpromneft’ station on Yaroslavl Highway, even though the sign was lit up, only diesel was left. Next, at Lukoil—the sign wasn’t even lit. At Rosneft near Pushkino—a long line… I tried another Gazpromneft on the TTK, and there was a long line there too. During the day… the search continued. The “Rosneft” station on the TTK had a massive line. Several gas stations were either empty or had only diesel. In the side streets, I found a “Neftmagistral” station with every type of gasoline except 100, and no purchase limits. But the price tag for 95-octane was already close to 100 rubles. That’s why the line was “short”—only about 20 minutes. I had to fill up there. On the way home, the picture was the same: either empty gas stations or long lines… “You can’t just chalk this problem up to a rush anymore,” Poplavskaya said.

She expressed outrage that the media is silent about what happened. The “Z-patriot” is also convinced that subordinates are lying to Kremlin leader Vladimir Putin about the real situation on the fuel market.
