Wow, a lot of snark for someone who literally has put his own life on the line to fight against the corruption that defines the Putin regime. But, easy to criticize from afar, I suppose.
The Magnitsky act is needed and brave, and would not exist w/o Browder. Can the dude get a little respect for that, at least?
- Tycho 8y agoYes, it is possible that Browder is a noble soul, a "CEO turned human rights activist" tirelessly campaigning against corruption. I think we (or more importantly, the press) should at least entertain the possibility that Browder's Yeltsin-era investments and subsequent financial arrangements in Russia were not entirely virtuous and that the Magnitsky Act sanctions are more about greed than concern for human rights.
