✊ P.S. It turns out that #Ukrainians are not that inventive. There is a term "good Germans". As wikipedia says these are
"German citizens during and after WWII who claimed not to have supported the #Nazi regime, but remained silent and did not resist in a meaningful way. Later - those who claimed ignorance of the Holocaust and #German #war crimes."

🏆 But the main reason why #Navalny & co. are the goodest of the #goodrussians is that they're against this #war and for #peace. That's why they do all of the above.
If you still doubt there are good #russians please express your disbelief and critique.
Or perhaps you have another argument or two proving their goodness, then share them here as well.

Self-exposure via too much security

Georgia Closing Airspace Over Abastumani ‘Ivanishvili Whim’, Sources Tell RFE/RL
On April 16, Georgia is to close airspace over the area of Abastumani, a health resort in the country’s south, with officials citing the need to ensure clear skies above the local astrophysical observatory. However, sources told Radio Free Europe/Radio…
This move by Bidzina Ivanishvili with declaration of no-fly zone gives me some hint: if you want to fully unmask this putin pet faster, you should rally not on famous Rustaveli avenue or even near headquarters of his “Georgian Dream” pet party. The most sensitive place for Ivanishvili now is where he imposed so hardcore security measures, going so far up to declaring no-fly zone. So opposition should rally in Abastumani where his family residence is.
I guess this kind of self-exposure via excess security is common among dictators and billionaires alike.
The illustration picked as reminder that the Death does not care about your security measures. it even does not care whether you have enemies who ready to give you ticket for Kobzon concert. It simply comes in its own time no matter what you do.
