    Man this thread was about the prisons not Navalni, it has been a while we stopped talking about him.

    Yes Assange is another example of lack of freedom of speech. But the idea was an example of Russia on the original comment, which again down here we stopped talking about.

      Russia is an especially bad excuse for anything we do. We ripped up the USSR to create the decaying state which had to be rescued by the current clique of resource nationalists who aren’t willing to just let the country collapse completely (those people are not politically aligned with me btw, i root for a different Russian opposition, the communists).

      Our media has spun the Russians up into this ludicrous imperialist threat that interferes with our elections meanwhile the Zionists openly make addresses to Congress, Turkish politicians and charter school billionaires are using our fucking government for infighting. We literally have SLAVERY in our prisons

      Russia is a peripheral country (lower on the NIKE shoe company supply chain, to make this easy to understand) a common insult in 2017 was that Texas had the same GDP (not that includes debts and rents, the backbone of the US economy, which is why in light of this their nationalized industries are a threat to us (especially military), GDP is inflated and stupid.
