The Insane Rules of Russian Prison

Support me / donate: https://buymeacoffee.com/nfkrz Prison is not fun in any country, but Russian prisons are insane. Russia and other Post Soviet countries have a very deep prison culture and strict rules that were formed in the Soviet GULAG camps. Many of these prison rules exist even on the outside. Not knowing these rules can be a fatal mistake: you either follow the prison code, or suffer. Russian prisons have their own language and a very strange hierarchy & caste system. Let's talk about how Russian prison works and what it's like doing time with the Russian mob, as well as discuss why Russian prisons are so dangerous.
