Goodreads Doesn't Have It, Data Migration: The Dissident
He leaves behind a wife and two children. Where was his Western support? These people are disgusting. I can't imagine having to do this on your own. The judicial corruption to the point he viewed the Russian court system like a joke is starting to sound disturbingly like Washington State where Covid nineteen touched down. The fact that if you are invited to an investigation you will be accused of ten crimes in Russian again sounds again a lot like Washington State. Not forgiving, not forgetting and then saying a whistleblower was a goodie two shoes sounds very confused on his part, you can't both take a crap on something and then call it, but I can understand not knowing who to trust as WikiLeaks is beleaguered with ego contests instead of focusing on winning together, and I do see he struggled with a lot of that. Edward Snowden is probably the link as to why Washington state is starting to look more and more like Putin's Russia, and his excuse is always the same; he was trying to save himself. Then why could this man say that he was not afraid of prison and would continue to fight and never said he was just trying to save himself? He struggled with confusion, but that is to be expected when you are not receiving the support you deserve while going through all that, under a promise of a Western democratic dream that seems impossible given the current nature of cruelty in your country. But I can't imagine the terror of doing this by yourself. This was a really strong, brave soul that apparently is very rare in Russia. I cannot imagine the grief of his two children. Truly disgusting and evil he didn't get the support he needed at the end. Nobody is going to be politically correct while being terrorized by someone who will try to terrorize your wife simply for being your wife upon your death. That is truly a disgusting environment. I don't see any Christian decency in attacking his wife and children. I can't imagine trying to fight from within a system that corrupt, all while finding out you're battling Western egos to boot who can't prioritize this fight over their vanity in a really pathetic fashion as well. I can't imagine that terror, and that will have a huge effect on your being acerbic or otherwise. Anyone who demands otherwise is lucky to be spared of the same that would force them to understand. Because if they had to go through it, they would be forced to understand. I hope his family receives the peace and support they deserve.
He died in bravery. He is a real hero. That is real bravery. And that he is dead should have Western support looking itself deeply in the eyes and asking where the f*ck were you for this man.
Truly horrifying that they're going after the wife and children while they are literally grieving the loss of their father. That says everything.
