What is happening in Kazakhstan?

I don't know who to be rooting for but I'm guessing it's the uprising?

Also: The massive disruption all this has caused in global crypto mining... and crypto mining had in turn apparently caused massive disruption to everyday life there by elevating power costs and creating blackouts.

What does it all mean? Trying to figure it out.

Damn crypto mining.

When news said that the government is allowing lethal force against the protesters and asked Russia to intervene, I guessed the same, but yeah haven't read enough. Like the US had an uprising a year ago, hashtag not all uprisings.

Things are such s*** there and people think it can't happen here but Trump would totally fire on protesters and many of his wannabe imitators would do the same.

Russia is drooling to get back its satellites...Ukraine, K-stan, etc.

So is this a fight between Russia and China? Or we sticking an oar in this thing too? I can't figure it out. All I know is that the Russians came and killed people and decided that the protesters killed themselves.
