Can someone explain this to my shrivelled Canadian brain

Prigozhin marched on Moscow despite Putin's warning to retaliate against any rebellion, then stopped his advance after talking to Lukashenko and getting offered amnesty in Belarus.

And then was in a mysterious plane crash that definitely wasn't caused by Putin.

Yeah, totally unrelated. Just like the large amount of people falling out of windows in Russia. And all the people that got poisoned or got to drink Polonium tea. All completely unrelated accidents.

But why though

We don't know for sure, but that's what this meme is playing on.

I still sometimes wonder what the Priggler thought was going to happen when he stood down. Did he really not think he was going to be defenestrated like literally everyone else who was slightly critical of Putin?
