  1. A sad day for sure but I’m surprised he hadn’t been killed a long time ago.

  2. To be truthfully honest, I’m surprised he lived that long.

  3. Lasted way longer than I thought he would. Rest in peace.

  4. Honestly if Russian population doesn’t see what a blood hungry ghoul Putin is, they cannot deny their responsibility for all the screwed up stuff he is doing

  5. Unfortunate but not unexpected. Russian state doesnt care about its people.

  6. Would it be interesting to know Tucker Carlson’s opinion on this matter? Although he probably has no time for this, he is busy buying stolen Ukrainian wine

  7. Shit news, but surprised he was given this long considering how Putler cracks down on opposition.

  8. Incredibly sad, I’m surprised he lived as long as he did tbh, an extremely brave man. Only 47, RIP.

  9. Another brick in russia’s infinite wall of being a shit stain on this planet, bringing nothing of value. 

  10. It’s still bewildering to me that he chose to return to Russia after they Novichok’d his cock and balls

    Ain’t no way I’d be returning after that no matter how passionate I was about changing things

  11. Brave man to go back in the first place. He must have know he was going into certain death.

  12. Should have stayed in the west after being poisoned. Instead he chose a martyr’s death.

  13. They claim he was ”feeling ill after a walk”. Yeah.

  14. I still think it was a stupid decision for him to go back to Russia, but at least he might be considered a martyr for russian people.

  15. I just remember that pic of him and his wife on that final plane flight to Russia where he was watching Rick and Morty. Fuck all these evil wealthy powerful people, Russia and everywhere.

  16. He was an hero. He accepted his fate to be a Putin enemy.

    He died as a martyr.

  17. This is a devastating blow not only for his loved ones but for all who believed in his cause.

    Navalny’s relentless courage in the face of immense adversity inspired countless individuals around the world. Despite facing numerous threats to his life and freedom, he remained unwavering in his pursuit of truth and accountability.

    But let’s be real here – this isn’t just about one man. Navalny’s death symbolizes a broader failure within Russian society. The fact that someone who fought so passionately for the betterment of his country could meet such a tragic end speaks volumes about the state of affairs in Russia.

    The Russian people, as a whole, failed Navalny. Instead of rallying behind him in solidarity, too many remained silent or actively supported the oppressive regime that sought to silence him. Whether out of fear or apathy, their lack of collective action allowed this injustice to persist.

    Today is a somber reminder of the sacrifices made by those who dare to challenge authoritarianism. Navalny’s passing should serve as a wake-up call to all of us – we cannot afford to stand idly by while injustice reigns supreme.

    As we mourn the loss of Navalny, let us also reflect on what his life stood for: courage, integrity, and the unwavering pursuit of justice. May his legacy inspire future generations to continue the fight for a freer, more just Russia.

    Rest in peace, Alexei Navalny. You will be deeply missed, but your spirit lives on in the hearts of those who refuse to surrender to tyranny.

  18. Putin really dislikes every piece of competition for his power, no matter the size.

  19. The traitors of the Republican party support the Putin regime, the greatest historical enemy of the US. A proven murderous and terrorist regime.

  20. I feel devasted, but at the same time everyone knew it will end up like this, since they put him in jail… I hope I’ll live long enough to see the same news about putin and it will put back smile on my face

  21. It is a grim day today. I wonder what made Putin do it a month before elections. Hopefully the shithead is actually losing it

  22. He was a brave man, but it was an incredibly poor decision to go back and get himself arrested by the same people who’d just tried to murder him. There were a hundred different things he could’ve done to fight for his country that didn’t involve his slow torment and death by the state.

  23. How convenient for Mr Dictator, just before the election and everything.

  24. One more crime of Putin’s regime.

    Just wondering what it will take to wake up Russians and remove the criminal syndicate in charge.

  25. Not many people I deeply admire but this guy is one of them. He likely knew this would be his fate when he voluntarily returned to Russia but did so anyway. What an absolute hero.

  26. His biggest mistake was going back. He could have done so much, even from exile. I’d say it’s a big loss for Russia and for the world. He brought a lot of sanity in Russia’s insanity. RIP 🙁

  27. Look how weak and pathetic putin is that he has to kill people just to stay in power. The man he failed to kill by poisoning and who escaped to freedom was brave enough to return and face him so they lock him up and kill him in a cage.

  28. I remember vividly the day he was poisoned. Remember how the doctors foughts for his life. How the deal was made to transfer him to Germany. It seemed unbelievable that the state would so openly try to do it even back then.

    When they got him out to Europe, I breathed out such as huge sigh of relief. I followed his recovery, being sure that at least he was safe under protection of the German government. With Merkel herself giving him guarantees, at least his future felt secure.

    When he decided to go back, everyone was absolutely dumbfounded by his decision. By then it was already clear that they tried to assassinate him not once, but twice (if not more). Nobody had any illusions as to what awaited him. Remember: the official charge they arrested him at the airport was for failing to present himself for inspection *while* he was recovering from poisoning in Germany.

    I am saddened by his ultimate fate, but not surprised at all – rather we were all surprised they let him live that long at all. He could have done so much more by staying in Germany. Both for his family and for the bigger cause: having his voice speak out would not have stopped the criminal war in Ukraine, but could lead to productive fundraisers or other types of collective action.
