This man is a hero but a ‘sadomasochist’ at the same time. Why did he return to Russia after the attempt to poison him? He wanted to show he was not afraid, I get that but was it worth it? His life is in danger again. And his public support remains relatively low, even after disclosing the whole Putin palace by the Black Sea and the extravagant spending on it, all this while the Russian people have seen a dramatic decline in quality of life.

I think a common assumption is that his family was threatened by the Kremlin and his only option was to return to prevent harm to them.

  Yes but but I guess he is worth more to his family alive than dead. That likelihood is pretty high, either in a Russian jail or poisoned again with a nerve agent. I don't think he'll be lucky to survive another attempt like that. He is really courageous but am still not convinced his decision to return was a sound one. Putin ordered the killing of many opponents and the Russian people as a whole don't show any sign that they care.

    They put him in a position where he might not have a family if he stayed away, and safe.

      That makes some sense however, when he got back on his feet from poisoning, he published the Black Sea Palace Documentary, a risky move. I guess that would put his family in great danger as well. Now, after returning to Russia he's been silenced and doubt his family is not any safer. I still admire this guy for his courage to confront Putin, I would be scared for my life. It is sad that the Russian people don't seem to care. The demonstrations that took place should have been much bigger.

        Maybe they care for THEIR families. Think it through before you condemn others. The people that have killed themselves in front of the White House probably think the rest of the USA is asleep at the wheel, too, as a citizenry.

        Not consemning Navalni, I have enormous respect for his courage. I just think they’re gonna kill him this time and he basically knew what was awaiting him back home.

Why is he a hero to you? Is it because Navalny wants immigrants and Muslims to be killed like cockroaches? The video where he advocates killing immigrants and likens them to cockroaches: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q8ILxqIEEMg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q8ILxqIEEMg

    In addition to all the videos he created of killing non-whites and immigrants, he has also participated in many Russian March(s) which is full of white supremacists. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_march https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_march He has never publicly denounced the videos he has created. But he hasn’t attended the Russian March for the last couple of years.
