Alexei Navalny has died in prison
A little reminder of who this fascist CIA asset was: he regularly participated in neo-nazi marches, advocated to strip non-ethnic Russians of their Russian citizenship, and called muslim Chechens "cockroaches".
It was so bad that even western media was forced to report on it. In 2021, a BBC article reported even Amnesty International was forced to strip Navalny’s “prisoner of conscience” status for the violence and hate he unremorsefully promoted https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-56181084
That same month, US government-funded Radio Free Europe likewise was forced to concede Navalny’s extremist background https://www.rferl.org/a/navalny-failure-to-renounce-nationalist-past-support/31122014.html
And now BBC is spamming articles about "opposition leader dying in arctic prison"
If he had really conquered power libs would have been like "oh no how could this happen, no one could've ever forseen that he would be even worse than Putin 😭"
If he had opened Russian markets to exploitation by Wall Street they wouldn't have cared.
Western libs still look back fondly on the Yeltsin years...
World News having the expected meltdown. No early weekend for people working in Langley.
Shoutout to the people on reddit who 'vividly remember the day he was poisoned' and to those saying he would be the Russian Mandela, bringing peace and justice to Russia.
I still can't believe he's gone, he was such an inspiration for western media
He will not be missed RIP BOZO
The only thing the Western media portrayed him as was as an opponent of Putin. His nationalist tendencies were unknown to Western libs.
As so was his irrelevancy in the general landscape of Russian politics.
Libs framed him as a russian MLK 😅
The crabs will rave today
Why though?
Racist US backed stooge who got dooped into ending up in a Russian prison lol. IIRC he was advised to return to Russia to be sone kinda martyr by his handlers (he had no real mass appeal in Russia and he was being propped up as the 2nd runner up in power lol)
Ukrainians celebrating lmao
I was confused for a second, then remembered he allegedly supported the Crimea affair
rare ukrain w
Can we even say the one and only ukrain w?
Hoo boy, brace yourself
Goodbye Mr navalny and hello Mr guaido
Guyadov
Ivan Guyadov elected as interim president of Russia
I saw the lemmy thread for this and it was full of shit-for-brains liberals mourning his loss despite the fact they have zero idea who he was. At least they stopped once the comment explaining who he was got to the top.

I'm surprised. Usually even when you do explain, it gets handwaved away with "lesser evilism"
Maybe Putin killed him, maybe he didn't. But wasn't he in jail for 2 years? Why wait so long for a hit?
It's not just the ~300 days in prison. It's not like it was hard to kill him at any point prior. Not to mention the dumb fuck did more to die himself with that "poisoning"(probably an OD).
Honestly, I don't see a single reason why Putin would do it. The situation was perfect for him as it was - Navalny was largely forgotten and had no bearing on anything. If anything, he won't appreciate a minor shitstorm on the Internet a month before the elections.
But hey, "great" people can't just die of health issues, it's always someone!
I believe he had issues throughout his captivity. Sickness, hunger strike, that kind of stuff. I don't think he got a five star hotel treatment either and eventually your health becomes a severe risk. Or maybe Putin just killed him.
All of the most popular subreddits are talking about Navalny's death as if he was some kind of hero. It is impressive how propaganda can PR this dude's image into a fantastical hero/human that liberals can look up to. Truly disgusting how libs fall for this
New gender inclusive bathroom
Trudeau being annoying about this, what else is new:
Unwavering advocate for Russian democracy and freedom
Freedom to do what, shoot the Caucasians?
Is there anyone taking him seriously after paying homage to a literal nazi collaborator?
We only take him seriously because he’s the leader of this country, nothing else. If he lacked executive powers people would probably care less. Then again, our local MPs are tweeting about Navalny too and stirring up trouble so…. Our entire government is a circus.
Why does it sound like he had chatGPT write this eulogy for him?
A lot of his tweets are written this way, at least in my opinion. Maybe that’s just how he is or he really does use ChatGPT.
Aren't the sources for machine learning and ai things that already exist? If you feed liberal drivel into an AI, won't it give you more liberal drivel?
What a coincidence, just yesterday I saw some idiots in comments on r*ddit mentioning him, which was also posted here and just today we get yet another gender-neutral bathroom in Russia!
He just died? Wow. I didn’t know that. You are telling me now for the first time. He led an amazing life. What else can you say. Whether you agreed or not, he was an amazing man who led an amazing life. I am actually sad to hear that. I am sad to hear that.
Blue Jean baby~
The libs of mastodon are having a field day with this one, crying about how he was such a hero despite knowing fuck-all about anything.
cool
Looks like protests have erupted since this happened, with some protest signs in english, and people are getting arrested too. Does anyone know what’s going on with that?
Sounds like a spontaneous opportunistic NED/CIA/western-billionaire-NGO colour revolution attempt to me.
That was my immediate thought too. The English signs threw me off the most, it’s not like they need to reach a wider audience so what gives? It’s very fishy…
Does anyone know what going on with that?
Not much. I found numbers from 55 to 400 arrested country-wide in two days. They'll get 20 days and a fine at the very worst. I think you can surmise how widespread and consequential these protests are. As I saw someone say on TG Navalny's hamsters remaining in the country can probably be caught on one camera shot from a drone if they were in one place.
So a small group going feral for Western propaganda? Very cool…
