Keep up the pressure. Be peaceful, but be there. On every issue, large or small. Everywhere. Protests work.

McCormick can’t sell being a politician, and Fetterman gave up the good fight. Wastes.

You never change things by fighting the existing reality. To change something, build a new model that makes the existing model obsolete.

We didn't do enough to support Navalny when we could have... and now we ARE Navalny!

I will Fight Back, just as my family did in the Revolutionary War. I write my Congressional Leaders several times a week. If everyone would do that, we'd be Rid of Nazi Muskrat and the Fat Orange Turd and Vance.

Another hero of the people . Putin had him poisoned. When that didn’t work, look what Putin did to him. Evil.

Not me. Not mine. We're resisting. Real patriots don't roll over or tremble in fear when democracy is threatened. The best patriots follow the damn $$ and find out who the real culprits are. They may get away with this BS short term, but it will NOT stand long term.

Wasn't Alex one of them mad fundamentalist "Christians"....similar to those who adore Trump.

slightreturn.bsky.social•58 days ago

He was also an admirer of the far right, and attended neo-nazi meetings. A dubious character, to say the least.

ellasworld1.bsky.social•58 days ago

Yep

hopefulhermit.bsky.social•58 days ago

Absolutely not.

grancracker.bsky.social•58 days ago

porcupunk.bsky.social•58 days ago

He wasn't really a Christian fundamentalist but he was a religious ethnofascist.

justmeanybody.bsky.social•57 days ago

Navalny opposed Putin, but not the invasion of Ukraine in 2014, not the invasion of Georgia in 2008 when he called Georgians rodents who should be bombed. He was a racist who called immigrants and Muslims cockroaches who should be shot and marched with Neo-Nazis https://newlinesmag.com/spotlight/navalnys-future-russia-did-not-include-everyone/

Umm. Exactly what I commented on?

changethesystem.bsky.social•57 days ago

I know. I’m including the article that I got the quote from. His letters from prison. I wasn’t trying to be rude. I meant that yes his quote is bad, but his letters are heartbreaking.

erinlkelly.bsky.social•57 days ago

Got it. Thanks for the clarification

changethesystem.bsky.social•57 days ago

No worries 🙂

porcupunk.bsky.social•58 days ago

Considering that he was a liar and a hypocrite and the ethnofascist future he envisioned? No.

Partly because of Trump’s treachery, in 2025 Navalny’s inspiring words are resonating in a number of homelands - including the USA.😢😡
