Since when are oligarchs heroes edition
I couldn’t write this on Xmas Sunday…
Since when do we listen to Russian thieves?
Stop saying that the war in Ukraine is being waged by Russia and the Russian people. It's a war of Putin and his regime. The narrative that Russia as a whole is at war benefits Putin and is not true. A thread 1/8

This dude lost a political struggle with Putin. Tsar Khodrorkovsky would have been the same as Putin with time. He’s not a Magnitsky. He’s old type Kosmosol youth turned kleptocrat.
Trotsky might have been worse than Stalin in power (have a look at his extremism during the Civil War), but he lost a power struggle and somehow becomes a hero through dichotomy.
Khodorkovsky pretends to say what he thinks. Well by his own measure he thinks Russians and Russia are not to blame for this genocide war. He is an apologist of Russian genocide.
