Western Media Coverage of Navalny and Le Pen Shows Breathtaking Hypocrisy

https://on.rt.com/82s0

"Press coverage of Russia's Alexei Navalny and some of Europe's opposition figures is startling in its myopia and double standards. Thus we have the bizarre situation where a figure who makes Marine Le Pen look like Mary Poppins - and has expressed outright hostility to 'progressives' - is hailed as a modern Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn by Western correspondents.

That said, the fact they've had to hitch their wagon to a figure they'd militantly oppose in any Western state, serves to expose the bankruptcy of their ideas. And the complete intellectual collapse of Russia's westernization movement."

A simultaneous bankruptcy of a toxic and Russophobic, pro-imperialist western 'liberal' intellectual class is also very noticeable.
