The real challenge facing a kremlin linux fork isn't opposition, it's deciding what to do once they realize there aren't any maternity wards in the kernel they can shoot ballistic missiles at.

Oh first the Russian government is the one responsible for the fork itself, now suddenly they are shooting missiles at it in your mind. The liberal brainpan is a fascinating place.

I think you may have misread the message you replied to. The message you replied to was implying the Russians wouldn't know how to deal with the kernel because they can't shoot missiles at it. That's the opposite of what your reply implies.
