    I can say from a perspective of someone living in an Eastern European country that those who leave are basically forgotten. If they try to change something from the outside they will be ignored or treated as foreign spies, and completely ridiculed by the bought up media outlets. But when someone dies there is a custom to always speak kindly of the ones who died. So sadly, dying in the country you fought for is sometimes the only option you have to get some respect.

      Respect? He worked for CIA. And was eIiminated by CIA.
      Objectively, why would Putin eIiminate him NOW? He was completely harmless, under total control, in prison forever, most people forgot he ever existed (he was never popular in Russia).
      Yet NOW, one week after Tucker's interview which shook western narrative, ONE day before the fall of Avdeevka (huge Russian victory now completely overshadowed), one month before elections in Russia now someone trying to make a martyr of him, incite unrest in Russia and galvanize 'opposition'... guess who? Certainly not Putin. Not to mention US Congress and funding of Ukraine, or NATO meeting in Munich, Navalny's wife is already there, reading from scripts... how convenient.
      Qui bono? CIA.

    i am a 55 year old father of two draft age boys living in Canada. I am preparing to leave ASAP following Nomad Capitalists advice. I will not send my sons to fight for ANY Politician or Globalist agenda. 120 years ago my ancestors left Odessa Russia for a better life in Canada. THis decision allowed my family tree to continue branching out. Many families STAYED where they were to fight, to hide, to ignore the tyranny forced upon them. We are facing this again. Those who CHOOSE to LIVE FREE will have to make some hard decisions as all levels of Government in the WEST, are infiltrated by the globalists.... I wish you Well!

    he had 2 suspended sentences on him before he went to Germany to get treatement.
    By default 2 suspended senteces are impossible to have.
    So he basically was told, go to Germany or wherever you want, just stay away.
    He returned to be jailed.

    I mostly agree that not everyone needs to stay and fight the good fight. Sometimes staying alive is winning. That being said, being able to "go where you are treated best" kinda does rely on the people who do stay and fight to make that place/state/country a better option.
    Sometimes being willing to sacrifice yourself works to bring about incredible change to your people and the world. Definitely thinking about Gandhi and Mandela here (and many others, I'm sure). Tragically, Navalny wasn't able to add his name to that list.
    It is very brave to oppose someone whose enemies tend to fall out of windows or mysteriously contract radiation poisoning. I respect Navalny for being willing to die for his cause. Only time will tell if his sacrifice will bring about meaningful change in Russia.

    I don't think there is any good or bad guys in power, it's merely a conflict of interest between all of them. Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely. Most folks consider the opposition of those they consider to be the bad guys, as automatically good, and vice versa.
    Personally, I think everything is way more nuanced than that and it's very tiring. My opinion on Alexei Navalny was a mixed bag, but I appreciate his efforts against corruption. I remember seeing the news when Navalny got evacuated from my parent's hometown of Omsk, to Berlin, where I live.
    Having grown up as a dual German-Russian citizen in Germany, I'm super tired of those fellow locals who think they are entitled to berate me on what part of my heritage I "must" reject to become either a "complete German", or "complete Russian" and that I "MUST" also live in one of these countries. But give these people a thought experiment, tell them that I am a German-American, and suddenly it becomes OK to be both at once. All that only because of some politics.
    Those who base their entire identity around a single country are so pitiful. A human being has got to have more facettes than that. I'm glad to have found Nomad Capitalist years ago and to learn from other people what the entire world has to offer!

    From what I heard from Scott Ritter, Navalny was in poor health even before returning to Russia. But in a similar situation was Gonzalo Lira in Ukraine who had the opportunity to leave the country but chose not to and continued his anti-government activites. We all have choices.
    I live in Canada and haven't sent any moneies to any causes as the Truck Convoy showed what can happen with people's banking accounts being seized and personally jailed and what-have-you despite laws. We are in an age of misinformation, lack of freedom of information, persecution and declining prosperity all here in the West. I'm 74 and quite fearful and frankly bewildered at this upheaval going on around the world.

    Andrew, I get what you mean (and I even agree to a large extent). However, just to play devil's advocate a bit, I would suggest that Navalny's context differs from the examples you present because Navalny was never focused on galvanizing the West against Russia, as much as he was interested in galvanizing the Russian people against their political class. By this metric, he was unlikely to do this effectively from exile, even if he were to have been continuously feted by the West. As you know, the flow of information and the accompanying narratives are strictly controlled in Russia, to the extent that people there have diametrically opposite views from the people in the West on the same issues/persons. Look no further than Gorbachev as an example of this.

    Ponder upon this thought for a moment. Before Tbilisi, Georgia 🇬🇪 became a Nomad Capitalist destination, many people put in a lot of hard work and sacrifice (and in a number of cases, including the ultimate sacrifice) in order to make that destination desirable.
    There are times when an individual picks and chooses the battles to take on because it just makes sense to do so.
    Alexa Navalny made his choice because he saw the possibilities of a better future and so it also goes for those of us who also choose that path.

    "He has the ability to enact some real change at some point" - Putin enacted the very real change. In 1999 (when Putin came to power) Russia was #10 by GDP (PPP) and now it's #5. And you can compare it with Italy that within the same period moved from #7 to #12 (by the way, Indonesia moved from #12 to #7).
    By GDP (PPP) Russia is trailing Japan and above them there are China and India that have ten times the population than Russia and USA that just keep printing money (and also have twice the population than Russia).

    Nalvany made the same mistake Saakashvili did- he put his trust in Western Governments who were every bit as bad or worse than the one he was fighting and that path leads to nothing but destruction. With Saakashvili there was obviously a substance abuse issue that perhaps contributed to his poor judgment (and to be fair, he was at least a former President with genuine political following back hope and maybe could have somewhat reasonably been deluded in to thinking going back was a smart move) but I don't know what Navalny was thinking when he decided to go back. Russia violated their own laws in not sending him to prison after second conviction and then shipped him off to Germany at their own expense. How much more of a hint to you need? That the Neocon Ghouls he put his faith in are now gleefully using his corpse to advance their twisted agenda is is heartbreaking, but not surprising. These Governments and their Functionaries DO NOT CARE ABOUT YOU. Never put your faith in them and always look out for yourself.

But to take the Motherland away from the Russian heart, to humiliate it, to insult it so that it becomes ashamed and renounces it is impossible, there is no such power either on earth or underground, nowhere in the whole wide world.»

  • @georgek7831

    As a Russian native-speaker who has been observing Russian politics, there is in the Russian opposition space an unhealthy tendency to brand those who leave the country as "irrelevant" or "not real fighters". This leads people like Navalny, Karamurza and Yashin to go back and put themselves in jail for fear of losing political relevance, even though objectively, there are many figures who left authoritarian regimes and got back later when the regimes were crumbling or had already collapsed and then made a real impact. I agree that staying free is the better thing to do, anyone who claims otherwise would have to argue that if everyone went back and got into jail, that would bring the biggest amount of change, which is obviously ridiculous. I admire Navalny enormously, but I think that rationally speaking, going back while the regime is still stable was a mistake and it's necessary to analyze it objectively to prevent more of this in the future.

    8:26 is something I would also apply to certain ethnic minorities who have been condemned to its underclass and scapegoat group, especially if the majority of people from that group revel in the current state.
    Being "predominantly" African American, most of what I read about and witnessed from other blacks "fighting the good fight" was for most of them to become martyrs, imprisoned indefinitely, or live their lives under crippling poverty. And all of this for a just only a few decades in the latter 20th century where we had some semblance of respect from non blacks, especially outside of America. But for all of that to eventually come asunder due to the proliferation of the most successful weapon used to damage our reputation that is rap/street culture, along with a bunch of proletariat Americans (and increasingly other countries) who feel justified (or more justified) in their hatred of blacks due to that culture, and black underclass pawns willingly fulfilling the boogeyman stereotype under the guise of "doing it for the culture". At this point, the only solution I see is to leave for places that blacks (at least those from the Western nations) aren't the country's designated scapegoat, especially seeing that the blacks who historically went out on top were those who emigrated, or at least spent a good amount of time overseas.

    A russian follower of yours here. Thank you for mentioning about Alexey’s death. I believe he definitely knew what he was doing and what will Putin’s regime do to him. He chose to self sacrifice himself to show the importance of freedom, in a broad way.
    As a politician he claimed a couple of controversial things in his early career, was considered radical and orthodox by people who opposed him, but his whole life he consistently and sequentially stood for freedom of speech, freedom from fear, freedom for us, the people, to choose the future by ourselves, not to blindly obey the corrupted government.
    He wasn’t materialistic or rational, he was an idealistic person, with a courage of hundred men, who stood true to his convictions and never gave up under any pressure, intimidations, threats, attempts of bribery, tortures, assassination attempts, etc. He just refused to be crashed by the system. He might not be suppoted by a majority of russians, but he was a neverending pain in the butt for corrupted grey parasitic mass of cowardly soulless materialistic crowd of beurocrats that is a Putin’s regime today, a living evidence of their misery.
    He was a beacon of hope in the endless darkness and oppression of last decades, and he chose to die as a martyr to spread his fire even further. He refused to bow before useless parasites, lived free and died free, unbroken.
    I hope when the dark times pass people will recognize and understand his commitment

I admire Alexey’s bravery but he would have been still alive if he stayed in Germany. He had done important work and may he rest in peace. He is missed.

      Agree - Rus gov could’ve done long time. The problem is Navalny just talked and no real change. In a way russian people have seen real changes in Russia since 90x and they attributed it to Putin, that’s why russian population didn’t care. If one goes to big politics, there is a risk of some sort. Navalny’s death was more beneficial to the West to implicate Putin than to Russia and affirm him as dictator. As I said before Navalny was not a well known figure inside of Russia and to kill him by Russians was only to damage reputation of Putin, P didn’t need that. Also his poisoning investigation was fraught with so many inconsistencies: for example, it was claimed to be novitchok which was deadly, but yet handled by so many people and Navalny himself without grave consequences, other things as well. Navalny was thought of working with CIA. He is not the first one being a puppet to appease and putting political agendas to live.

    • @mayag5652

      Navalny case is suspicious as Skripals’ killed by poison novitchok. All points out to the work if brit intelligence rather than Russian’s. 1st of all, Skripal was in prison for 10 years in Russia for treason. Half way through it he was pardoned by Putin and exchanged to other Russian spies caught by the West. He was even allowed to leave abroad (though Russians could easily block it by not giving him an external passport for travel). That move itself showed he was not a danger to Russia or Putin anymore. Another thing - after poisoning Skripals were not seen or confirmed alive, and they were in the hands of British intelligence. Food for thought.

We will see numerous trolls now trying to diminish his impact, saying that he was not know in Russia, didn’t count, etc. He got on Putin’s radar, who was treating him as a threat, his life’s sacrifice evidences that the old Stalin’s modus operandi still applies - kill democracy, opposition and dissidents.

      He might copy Nemtsov's fate

      He was not a sacrafice. He simply died in prison. Had the Russian president wanted him dead, he would have been defenestrated a decade ago. His death is simply being magnified to assist in passing Ukraine aid money in the US Congress.

      Gulag Archipelago is mostly a bad fantasy propaganda, and Navalny was sacrificed by his CIA handlers.

    President Morsi in Egypt died the same way.

      Facts! Alexei was a tool of the West, he was a traitor to his own people.

      Which means he picked up moder western liberalism ideals and was probably heavily supported by people in our government if they knew his intentions to run for President over there.
