God jayapal is loving useless

With some of the "progressives" in Congress it's debatable whether they're just dumb rubes or know exactly what they're doing (probably a mix of both in many cases), but with Jayapal specifically she absolutely is fully aware of and embraces her role as controlled opposition within the party.

quote:

As the son of a Red Army officer, Navalny was born in 1976 into the privileged layers of the Soviet bureaucracy. His family participated in the restoration of capitalism which plunged the masses of workers into misery.

His parents founded a company. Navalny himself went into banking. As he later stated “I wanted a market economy in the most wicked form—the strongest survive, the rest are simply superfluous (ne nuzhny).”

What was the social origin of Navalny's opposition to the Putin regime? He, as many others in the middle and upper class, did not become as rich as they thought they would.

He later stated, “To market fundamentalists like me, it seemed like they would all become millionaires. Everybody thought that if we were smart, we would soon become rich … but then it suddenly became apparent that the rich are those that are somehow connected to the government.”

His political orientation early on was toward the far-right. He started participating in the fascist “Russian March” in 2005. This event was held annually in the fall in Moscow, and attracted a variety of Monarchist, fascist, anti-Semitic and anti-immigrant organizations.

In 2007, he was expelled from the US-backed “liberal” [outfit] “Yabloko” because of his sympathies for the far right.

Navalny realized his plans for a “united front” of the far right and “liberals” with the “National Russian Liberation Movement,” or NAROD (The People), that he co-founded with the National Bolshevik Zakhar Prilepin.

In one of the videos that NAROD published, Navalny is dressed as a dentist, comparing the extraction of rotten teeth with the deportation of “illegal immigrants.” He cheerfully says: “There is no need to beat anyone. Everything that bothers us must be carefully removed by means of deportation.” https://youtube.com/watch?v=jVrAPFBSKnk

Video footage of the “Russian March” of November 4, 2011 (the day of Russian unity) shows Navalny in front of a poster, “Russia belongs to us,” agitating and shouting at a crowd of monarchists and fascists about corruption. Navalny soon joined the organizational council of the “Russian March.”

Referring to the corruption trial between the oligarchs Boris Berezovsky, a major donor of the “liberal opposition” and Abramovich, a pro-Putin oligarch, in London, Navalny stated: “….they [the oligarchs] are afraid of a London judge. But for some reason, they’re not afraid of everyone gathered here. Should they be afraid?” https://youtube.com/watch?v=PTH-gZDXHUQ

The crowd shouts back: “Yes”—Navalny: “Should they be afraid?”—the crowd: “Yes.” Navalny: “This is our country and we must exterminate these thieves who are drinking our blood and chewing our livers. Down with United Russia! Down with the party of crooks and thieves!"

Before concluding, Navalny shouts: “One for all”—the fascist crowd responds: “All for one”—then Navalny shouts again: “One for all”—The fascists respond again: “All for one.” Navalny then concludes: “Glory to Russia. Happy Holiday.” The crowd repeats after him several times: “Glory to Russia.” In other words, the principal basis for his opposition to "corruption" was an alliance with the far-right.

Just a few weeks later, Navalny became the figurehead of the anti-Putin opposition movement that emerged in response to the rigged Duma elections of December 2011. The protests were prominently supported by the US.

It was not despite, but because, of his involvement with both the liberals and the far right that Navalny became attractive political figure to both elements within the Kremlin who were planning for the “post-Putin” period, and US imperialism.

He was viewed as the perfect candidate to create an alliance between fascists and oligarchs, and sections of the upper-middle class, for a right-wing movement against Putin, which would be aimed at installing a pro-US puppet regime.

According to the British journalist Ben Judah, around 2009-2010, a “team began to form around Navalny” that included Evgenia Albats, a major editor, and Sergei Guriev, one of the best known economists in Russia and a former ally of ex-president Dmitri Medvedev. He started receiving backing from the influential bankers Vladimir Ashurkov and Mikhail Fridman.

He also developed ties with separatist tendencies and local elites that seek greater independence from Moscow and see in an alliance with the imperialist powers the basis for having a greater share in the exploitation of Russia’s raw material resources and working class. https://wsws.org/en/articles/2020/09/03/nava-s03.html

His so called “Novichok” poisoning in 2020 was dubious, to say the least. A supposedly deadly nerve agent barely had an impact on his health. No piece of the story fit the other. He himself had to resort to references to Harry Potter to illustrate the effect of the “poison”, comparing it to the impact “of a dementor in Harry Potter.” https://wsws.org/en/articles/2020/12/17/nava-d17.html

We don't know what is behind the [death] of Navalny. What is clear is that he was a far-right stooge of imperialism who hated the working class of Russia and the world with no less ferocity than does Vladimir Putin. https://wsws.org/en/articles/2018/01/09/nava-j09.html.

Class-conscious workers and youth must reject the imperialist propaganda over his death. The fight against imperialist war can only be waged in opposition to all factions of the imperialist powers and oligarchies.
