He participated in Russian marches some 20 years ago but kept his distance afterwards. FYI, ultra-nationalists outside of government structures were all jailed or killed since then, and the state nourishes similar sentiments in people much more successfully.
He is favoring the idea of abolishing free travel with poorer countries like Uzbekistan and Tajikistan, but this is pretty much in line with the politics of all other governments (US vs Mexico as opposed to US vs Canada).
Anything else is state propaganda trying to discredit him.
Not true. His 'hate' against ethnic minorities is a gross overstatement. "Stop feeding Caucasus" means stop giving money to murderous criminals who rule in the region, not make people of the Caucasus starve, and his suggestions to restrict travel from former USSR countries are not unlike existing EU or US restrictions of travel applied to Russian citizens.
Regarding hate against sexual minorities, in the more than a decade of following Navalny on social media, I have never seen him exhibiting any hate or resentment towards sexual minorities, so I think that this accusation is an outright lie.
A note to the readers from the US: "Caucasian" in Russian has the opposite meaning, so some Russians may collide the "Stop feeding Caucasus" slogan with nationalistic statements, but it is more about rule of law and economics.
The status quo is that the Russian state pays loads of money to little czars in Caucasus to keep them comfy instead of fighting them in civil wars.
You continuously claim Navalny to have hateful views on sexual minorities or jews, but you fail to provide any sources.
As for georgian 'rats'. 1. This was a statement done during an actual WAR with georgia, with extremely distorted information field and difficult to judge situation. I myself was very anti-georgian at that moment, but my views have changed since then. Navalny has also retracted his statement on the matter and apologized for it a long time ago, but propagandists like you endlessly cite it without any context or follow ups.
And 99% too... Got a collection of these comments?
The way you describe him he must be an Adolf Hitler. Heck even Adolf Hitler probably wasn't blaming the Jews and communists 99% of the time, your depiction is more of the Westboro Baptist pastor.
For ones who don't know context, Russians from both spectrum are really bad in terms of approach to immigrants. You don't hear it because immigrants doesn't have enough hold in media. However in everyday life, even the most liberal Russian can easily scorn and discriminate immigrants by saying that they are "blacks"(chyornie) and "churka".
