Genuinely curious who'll be killed off first - him or Putin.

Putin's immensely popular both domestically and in the Global South. Navalny is popular in the West and in some parts of Russia.

With the rise of the Global South, my money is on Putin keeping it together.

domestic numbers spoofed, when anti-putin riots occur frequently and are brutallt supressed it's hard to say it's 'immense'

I think Putin. I mean, killing Navalny or keeping him in that place is basically the same effort and risk for the Kremlin. Maybe is safer to leave him there, tbh

this guy is a neo-Nazi, it was so annoying to see westoids praising him years ago

The clown candidate

Did they actually move him to the North Pole or are they having fun with the word "Arctic"?

[–] Rom@hexbear.net 2 points 2 years ago

The new place they moved him to is north of the Arctic Circle so it's accurate.

This dude doesn't even poll that high compared to the other contenders.

technically true actually as putin does make the laws, so in his eyes it's criminal to run against him
