I was so sorry and sad as had watched and listened to this brave man and his family. All tyrants fall, I so pray that Navalny is at peace and knows he was loved by so many. He had to die at the hands of Putin and his henchmen BUT his words and actions will help so much to topple the evil regime. God bless his family and supporters ❤🎉

[@G0ldfingers]

Navalny set an example for all Russians, if one man was such a thorn in Putin's side imagine what a nation of people being defiant of him could be.

[@norfolkronin6307]

RIP. That very brave young man. Soldier. Bless him and his family.

[@johnallen7807]

I cannot imagine the amount of courage it must have taken to go back to Russia knowing this is what would likely happen. Russia has lost a real hero.

[@dpelpal]

I am Russian, live Samara. Many say he made bad mistake in doing this return. He could have gone Georgia, gone where 2,000,000 Russian men have fled to (avoid mobilization) and been leader.

[@petervanwyngaard4788]

​@@dpelpalHello Denisova. Navalny is my hero. Overcome all fear in returning to Moscow Putin would be ashamed to stand before this man and look in his eye Also too timid to look in Widow Navalnys eye.

[@danielwalther5841]

Navalny's courage, decency and commitment to a better Russia will not be forgotten. Anyone who has never gone on a hunger strike in captivity, should at least not make fun of it - or stay silent here.

Wasn't Navalny pro- special operation ? Or was I misinformed ?

Thank you, Mr. Browder.

[@Freedom_4ever]

Navalny was a truly courageous and good human being. All over the world other good people risk their lives for Truth, Freedom and Democracy. We need to step up, we cannot let their sacrifice and fight be in vain.

[@AnotherPointOfView944]

Although Navalny's struggle against Putin is the thing that defines him most, lets not forget that he was no Angel. He was a far right nationalist, with views that certainly did not align with Western values. Still, RIP.

[@philipmain5701]

He moderated his views as he aged . . . . as we all do.

How did a diary from a Russian prison got out to the public when it's such a evil regime? BTW he had only like 4% support, so I'm not sure how he could have been the next leader of the RF.

Is this the same Navalny who had far right connections and described migrants as cockroaches or is it a different one?

[@verapetrova-vk2td]

I wish you saw these migrants who he compared with cockroaches.

[@CharlesWhite-j4f]

Anyone who opposes Putin becomes the best buddy of the Western Establishment, even if he's a serial killer who murdered his own family, they are eager to overlook all sins. Remember the USA was happy to work with cruel dictators when it suited their purpose.

​@@verapetrova-vk2td so it was him. Good, glad that's sorted.

[@GroofusDoofus900]

No, this is the real Navalny, not the Kremlin created one.

[@PoshLifeforME]

And Navalny was a nationalist, I don't think he thought much of The West, but Lord, he would have put Russia first, not himself or the accumulation of money for himself and his friends.

[@beaconofprofessionalskills369]

believe there is to be a revolution in the relations between labor and capital. The laboring people a few generations ago were not very intellectual. There were no schoolhouses, no teachers except the church, and the church taught obedience and faith-told the poor people that although they had a hard time here, working for nothing, they would be paid in Paradise with a large interest. Now the working people are more intelligent-they are better educated-they read and write. In order to carry on the works of the present, many of them are machinists of the highest order. They must be reasoners. Every kind of mechanism insists upon logic. The working people are reasoners-their hands and heads are in partnership. They know a great deal more than the capitalists. It takes a thousand times the brain to make a locomotive that it does to run a store or a bank. Think of the intelligence in a steamship and in all the thousand machines and devices that are now working for the world. These working people read. They meet together-they discuss. They are becoming more and more independent in thought. They do not believe all they hear. They may take their hats off their heads to the priests, but they keep their brains in their heads for themselves.
