Right-wing authoritarians are people who have a high degree of willingness to submit to authorities they perceive as established and legitimate, who adhere to societal conventions and norms, and who are hostile and punitive in their attitudes towards people who don't adhere to them. They value uniformity and are in favour of using group authority, including coercion, to achieve it.
Right-wing authoritarians want society and social interactions structured in ways that increase uniformity and minimize diversity. In order to achieve that, they tend to be in favour of social control, coercion, and the use of group authority to place constraints on the behaviours of people such as political dissidents and ethnic minorities. These constraints might include restrictions on immigration, limits on free speech and association and laws regulating moral behaviour. It is the willingness to support or take action that leads to increased social uniformity that makes right-wing authoritarianism more than just a personal distaste for difference. Right-wing authoritarianism is characterized by obedience to authority, moral absolutism, racial and ethnic prejudice, and intolerance and punitiveness towards dissidents and deviants.
I don't think there can be indictments for political theater. Or at least I don't think that is how the law works.
So, you did not know that one of those indicted (one of the original indictments), shown up and mueller ran the other way? He made excuses on why he could not go to court, made excuses that he (mueller) was not sure if they accepted the indictment....blah blah blah....

Or so we had previously thought.
Are you suggesting that you believe that the Russian military people who were indicted will ever stand trial, much less be held accountable as proxies for Russian cyberwarfare activities against our country? Or that either Mueller or Rosenstein believed that any of these outcomes were even remotely likely when they filed for these indictments?
If the answer to all of these questions are "no," then these indictments are political theater and nothing more.

So, when the russians shown up...mueller went to court? Maybe you can provide a link to this?
I'll wait....
