      Ah yes, being a piece of shit is a crime worthy of being tortured and murdered by literal nazis. Liberal values on display as usual. 🤡

        Well that’s certainly not what the Wikipedia article I linked says. He died of pneumonia. Do you have a differing source?

            Article doesn’t even mention his death lol. Yea, he was a prisoner, for committing a crime. Seems like a case of FAFO to me. And certainly no big loss.

                I’m not up on Ukrainian law, and really, really don’t care about this dude. Any point you have is wasted on me.

                  It’s interesting that you apparently support the Ukrainian censorship of freedom of expression applied to US citizens. Very revealing.

                    I didn’t know American law applied in foreign countries. Interesting

                On May 1, 2023, Lira was arrested for violating Article 436-2 of Ukraine’s criminal code, which prohibits justification of Russia’s ongoing invasion of the country.[8][38]

                Also it’s on the wiki

                  To sum up, a US citizen was arrested for exercising his free speech, then thrown into prison where he was tortured and denied medical care, dying as a result. If that happened in Russia you’d be screeching about fascism right now, but since it happened to somebody you dislike, and was done by the fascists you support, you see no problem.

                    If it happened in Russia I would agree if he broke Russian laws while in Russia, he should face Russian consequences. It all seems really simple to me. If you commit a crime in a foreign country you are typically subject to their laws.
