I was upset to learn what had predicted: The death in what amounts to the modern day Russian Gulag of Alexei Navalny, political opponent to what passes for the current Russian dictatorship/ kleptocracy that holds Russia in thrall.
He joins a sad list of brave and good political movers and journalists that have tried to sustain freedom of information and the prospect of bottom-up government.

I bring it up here because I had a strong emotional reaction and because it was so goddam predictable.

May his memory live on and may his example lead and inspire.
