Navalny’s speech from court
February 5, 2021 at 2:38 am
This kind of bravery in the face of a violent regime that has already tried to murder you is inspiring.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Time for a second Russian revolution.
I'm talking fighting in the streets, mock trials, and firing squads.

Yeah, especially since the Russian tsar even has his own Versailles which Navalny uncovered

It's a sure bet than Navalny clanks when he walks. You know, from those big brass balls knocking together.
