Putin is murdering Navalny in front of the entire world, and nobody is doing anything about it.
How depressing is that? Modern equivalent of watching a lion kill a prisoner in the Colloseum.

i too feel hopeless when i see more and more news delienating worsening conditions for Navalny. at times it seems that all redditors can do is upvote these posts. but as u/misterpresidents mentioned, there ARE things being done, and i think the only action that would quench your thirst is someone doing the same to Putin by assassinating him, which will probably not happen.

Seriously, what's going on in your noodle that makes you think I'm out for blood? How can you possibly infer what you did from what I said? I'm honestly baffled

how else would Putin be stopped? haha. i'm sorry if i offended you in any way, you did not seem belligerent in your post or anything, i just thought there would be no other way of stopping Putin from murdering Navalny other then assassinating the former first.

I just genuinely thought you inferred that from my post. I talk to conservatives on here sometimes, and I have still never seen such a stretch- I was really interested in seeing what was going on behind the curtain for that one. I'm a little relieved (but at the same time a little sad) that it was a lapse in communication rather than the beginning of the rollercoaster of speculation.
I don't know what the alternative would be, I'm just sure there's something in between "assassination" and "shaking our fingers." Arrest? Military threats? Embargo? America has no problem on stepping in and playing "world police" when under-developed countries are concerned, why does Russia get a pass on human rights violations?

when under-developed countries are concerned,
can Russia even be considered a "developed" country that is....

Wow, that's a reach. Lol. I'm glad you have an active imagination.

Yep. Pretty fucked up.
Wait til China invades Taiwan and no one does anything.

We already sent fleets to hang out as a show of force, didn't we? Or was that with the Philippines?

I disagree ... kind of.
Navalny didn't have to go back.
He did.
Someone said it was Navalny martyring himself and I buy it.
This is suicide.

Getting murdered isn't suicide. Suicide by cop even necessitates illegally forcing the officers' hands, so that they are acting within the confines of the law.

Navalny knew Putin was gonna kill him.
Knowingly placing yourself in a situation where you'll die is suicide

Sure, but it doesn't make what Putin is doing "not murder."

Nobody cares because it isn’t racially motivated

Plenty of people are doing things. Apart from going to war, the only power anyone has is the implementation of sanctions. Many countries already have strict sanctions against Russia. Macron literally just called Putin out. I don’t know what you want.
That's still Putin getting away with murder. Costing Russia money with sanctions is just charging Putin a murder-fee.
What can they do otherwise then?
Who knows. If there was an easy solution it probably wouldn't be so fucked up.
