Alexei Navalny dead

[druss]

Regrettably, it's coming out that while in prison Alexei Navalny joined Hamas.

Mistranslation, he actually just "enjoyed hummus". Tragic misunderstanding.

I hope Vova is getting some good timeouts for his mental health while running Russia with all the wild accusations he had something to do with this sad event. Couldn't have been further away!

People have kinda quietly stopped caring about this guy right? Even with that acclaimed documentary a year or two ago I heard relatively little about him in a good few years. A lot of embarrassment upon realising he was fucking awful, maybe.

Curious to see how he's presented over the next couple of weeks, focusing on his death as an outrage to try and divert attention away from Israel feels like something the democrats could put a lot of energy into.

Not that his treatment hasn't been horrific etc.

He's evidently not got great politics very clearly in that doc, it's hardly glossed over.
