I was not wrong at all. Moscow came very close to falling. Why he stopped is a question we wont get an answer to any time soon. Russian regime was in full panic mode and I doubt he would face much resistance taking Moscow.
He made it a few hundred kilometers from Moscow and only had to kill 10-15 Russian soldiers.
So I am absolutely correct, Moscow could have fallen easily based on the nonexistent resistance he faced at that point when I wrote this comment.

Russian Marxists on the ground in the country, unlike yourself, note that the coup attempt of the oligarch Prigozhin failed miserably as the rest of the Russian ruling class threw their weight behind Putin. This coup attempt illustrates the divisions between the different wings of the Russian oligarchy of whom Putin is its Bonarpartist head.
The comment I made was during the actual coup as it was ongoing and it was progressing extremely well for Prigozhin. At that point he entered Moscow oblast with little opposition. So, again, I was completely correct in my assessment of Moscow falling if Prigozhin continued progressing at the pace he was.
In the end it didnt happen.
My comments were in real time, the Marxists you mention are commenting after the event is over.
