I really dislike how western media are making a martyr out of #Navalny just because he was a persecuted political opponent of #Putin. They are completely burying the fact that he was a far right nationalist that had some pretty yucky stance on immigration and various other topics that he tried to hide once he saw the opportunity. It’s another manufactured narrative a la #AungSanSuuKyi all over again.
