This is not someone to be celebrated. Use his death as an expose on the silencing of dissent in Russia but as nothing more.

He was a Russian fascist with well documented association with the neo-Nazis in the early 2000s then turned into a pro-Western liberal who opposes Putin.

Edit: 2011 NY Times profile about Navalny (CW: racism):

Liberals, meanwhile, have deep reservations about him, because he espouses Russian nationalist views. He has appeared as a speaker alongside neo-Nazis and skinheads, and once starred in a video that compares dark-skinned Caucasus militants to cockroaches. While cockroaches can be killed with a slipper, he says that in the case of humans, “I recommend a pistol.”

Not to mention he voluntarily went back to Russia after believing they tried to have him killed. I don’t know what he expected

Also the video of him being racist is still up on his personal YouTube channel to be clear. It is not a position he ever distanced himself from.
