Wtf are you talking about? Alexi Navalny was nearly killed after Putin poisoned him, but he kept speaking out. Then he was jailed and died in prison while still fighting Putin, and his wife has continued his work since then.
And even though it got swept under the rug fairly quickly, a few weeks ago she was able to get postmortem reports done that showed he most likely died in prison from being poisoned again, even though Putin delayed releasing his body after he was already dead bc he was trying to cover up his murder.
Tests show Navalny was poisoned in jail, his widow says
How exactly he fought anything? Gathered donations and led students for a few useless protests? Pathetic.
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.
