How exactly he fought anything? Gathered donations and led students for a few useless protests? Pathetic.

Ok, you sound like a Putin apologist.

Nah bruh I’m just a Ukrainian who knows how real fighting, protesting and opposition looks like, and what russian “opposition” does is not it.

What are you suggesting? Kill putler?

I'm suggesting that praising people who cosplay as opposition is cringe. The closest thing to real russian opposition are not some pathetic vloggers, but fighters who fight for Ukraine, for example, like "Freedom of Russia" legion, etc.

Dude, that's a fucking militarized group of people who are even not fully russians. They are not political opposition.
