I can't wait to see how libs will try to spin this as Russian propaganda π
Nah, that is an easy spin for them. "Russian agents injected him with clotting agents to make it seem like a natural death".
They are working backwards from the assumption he was murdered (don't ask them why Russia would martyr a prisoner) and so any possible cause of death will be attributed to foul play. A meteor could haven fallen from the sky and it would be attributed to the Russian space program.
What we are dealing with is an unfalsifiable orthodoxy
(donβt ask them why Russia would martyr a prisoner)
not just a prisoner, a prisoner russia was in the process of making a deal to exchange in order to return valuable russian prisoners back to russia, they had 0 reason to kill him when they were actively trying to use him as a bargaining chip.
good point
New RuZZian invention: the blood clot gun, from the same designers of the sonic weaponry that caused Havana syndrome!
They'll spin it into an antivax story for extra points.
Revealed: Navalny was forced to have a Covid vaccine with a booster shot every six months until he died.

Libs in lemmy thread are moving the goalposts with lightspeed.
I love how a lot of them completely missed who Budanov is. Now having this weird moment where they can't dismiss him as being a Russian shill, and now they don't know what to do. π
Thread i linked in my other post here is absolutely hilarious, libs regrouping on the new positions, our hexbear comrades mercilessly calling them Russian bots and libs swirl with confusion.
It's hilarious how they immediately got invested into the whole Russia did it narrative, and now Ukrainian intelligence chief is coming out saying there was no foul play. I'm honestly curious what Budanov's angle on this is.
Zelensky straight up said he was killed by Putin like "thousands of others" but now Budanov confirms Russian version. Some internal conflict i would say, but possibly a nothingburger since such things does happen failry regularily in fucked up postsocialist bureocracies when rightwingers lose their shit.
Yeah that's true, there is definitely factionalization happening though. I imagine as things continue to unravel militarily, we'll start seeing increased struggles for power within the political system as people will smell opportunity to unseat Zelensky.
What a clown. I hope dying in a cold cell from a blood clot was worth the NATO blood money. Dude was a martyr for all about 3 days π€£.
You donβt understand, it was a Kremlin backed blood clot!
