      Oh great, so he’s a covert Russian white nationalist who only wants to exterminate Muslims in secret.

          There being a bigger asshole doesn’t make an asshole a saint. I don’t buy Navalny’s 180 on his nationalist, islamophobe, and homophobe stances. And no liberal Russian I know (quite a few) does either. The western narrative of “Putin bad, Navalny against Putin, so Navalny good” is really strange. Given the chance Navalny could have been the next Hitler. Have you ever watched/listened to the stuff that guy said?
