      fair assessment :comfy:

      But for clarity i'll add that Navalny is nothing more than a populist with only neolib reforms. He's not an option to consider, but it is fun as heck to watch the various oligarchs one up each other. (Navalny has sponsors both within Russia and outside :) )

      Idk if a dude that’s super racist is better than Putin. Like at best a racist democracy isn't better than the at worst less racist whatever you call modern Russia. Like, it’s kinda an oligarchy but also not really because Putin can do damn near whatever he wants unless it rocks the boat like a mosh pit in a canoe.
