This is the main party line right now - "Navalny is Soros' agent and Smart Voting is election interference".

  I don't know about Soros, but e.g. the Swedish government is supporting him quite heavily. Would you consider Smart Voting to be "interference" if Chinese backed activists promoted it in the US?

    Of course not, especially if the interference is on the level of "One activist's teenage daughter has a TikTok account" like it is in Navalny's case.

      I thought Navalny was better organized than that, given the millions we shower him with and his 50+ staff.

    > the Swedish government is supporting him quite heavily In what way? The Nordic countries basically made a joint press release calling upon Putin to release him back in 2020, but that's about it? That's not much more than lip service. Also, one of the labs that verified that he was poisoned with Novichok is located in Sweden, I suppose (the other one in France).
