So is the basis of a “true” democracy something like dumber and less vigilant citizens? Or is it more like whatever “civilised West” is at any point in time?
Lol, I think that nobody outside of Russia has any belief that this was a free and fair election. I mean, even if you don’t count that Putin imprisoned his political ally and killed him.
Navalny was not killed by Putin. Navalny was not even liked that much in Russia. He had lower votes than approval rate for Biden and Trump. We could talk about Assange, though, if you want to get into that debate.
If he was so unpopular, then why did Putin try to assassinate him, then imprison him on fabricated charges with no intent to ever release him? Why couldn’t he just defeat him in a fair election and then ignore him?
I couldn’t get 88% of people to agree on which day of the week it was, much less who should be president.

I love how your evidence for Putin trying to assassinate Navalny is just a bunch of western media parroting what US state department says. 😂
