        The last time they toppled their leader was over 100 years ago, and it was only downhill from there. Everyone who was smart left already. The smart ones who stayed and were stupid enough to open their mouth got into a gulag. Everyone who talked about these people getting jailed up, was also jailed up. Thousands died. Million live above the bare minimum. There is no progression. No public discourse where to go. No idea what they could change, no perseverance to try out anything. Russia is a empty shell of disillusioned people, where nobody trust anyone and people dont want to talk their mind to not get in trouble. It is fake, empty, oppressed and a like minded simmering of the same lies over and over.

        It is a hazardous place for any socially or human development.

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    Russian opposition figure Alexei Navalny has died, prison officials in the Yamal-Nenets region said on Friday.

    The 47-year-old was Russia’s foremost opposition leader, winning a huge following with his criticism of corruption under Russian President Vladimir Putin.

    Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said it was not clear if Navalny had suffered  a blood clot rupture, as mass media began to report.

    He has called Russian President Vladimir Putin a “madman” and said the ruling party in Russia was full of “crooks and thieves.”

    Over the years, Navalny has faced physical attacks, repeated arrests, investigations, and criminal proceedings, which he claims to be politically motivated.

    However, with Navalny staying in Germany for several months after his release from the hospital, Russian authorities warned he was in violation of probation terms of an earlier court case and threatened to arrest him upon return.
