600 Russian doctors signed an open letter demanding a stop to Navalny’s torture. Guy is being denied medical care in jail.
I'm honestly amazed Putin hasn't just had this guy killed. He's killed so many other opposers to his regime.
Is he scared Navalny would become a martyr? Or is having him in prison like a trophy or something? >

If Navalny dies, his supporters will find a new leader of their cause, and become less manageable. As long as he lives, his supporters will never agree on a replacement. >

True, but there are Pro-Navalny Russians that have since gone full Z. >

Not sure this is true. Didn't find any such people online or elsewhere.
Being Z means mostly fully trust the state propaganda, and this prevents being pro-navalny. >

I am unsure of the veracity of that persons claim... 
However, Nalvany is less anti-Ukraine invasion and more anti-Putin. He still has strong nationalistic views, was pro-Crimean annexation, has stated if he became president, he wouldn't return Crimea, has made statements before with the same lines as Putin that Russia deserves a say in the domestic affairs of ex-soviet nations.
The only upside of him would be his anti-corruption stance. Which would be great for the average Russian... but could you imagine if there wasn't the widespread corruption like their is? Id the money that was supposed to be spent on the military was actually spent on military... not that Nalvany would have necessarily invaded Ukraine.. but the whole anti corruption stance mixed with the whole "Russia deserves a say in the domestic affairs of ex soviet nations" stance leads me to believe he would still use military pressure to get what he wants. >

I saw few false statements in your comment and stopped reading. Please do some research. Or read this at least.
Seriously what's wrong with people? Do you like living with lies in your head?
And what's with the "less anti-Ukraine invasion" thing? What exactly do you expect from him to do to show you he is against it? Remember he does not have any power and he is in jail? Maybe you expect him to call for anti-war protests, so more people get arrested as fast as possible? >

Do you see the blue link in my comment you replied to? Click it and read.
Out-of-context statements are bad arguments. >

The blue link which states that yes he did indeed say exactly what the commenter said he did?
The link which states that he says he'll hold a "true" referendum?
And you expect anyone to believe any of this? >

I believe he said what he said, and that you can only fully understand him if you actually read and listen to him at least for a few paragraphs, not just a few sentences.
Which exact phrase makes you hate him? As he said, the Crimea remained in Russia. Was he not correct here? When asked what would he do about it, he said that a lot of work needs to be done, and he is also right here. This can't be solved overnight, not after that many years.
You think a possible candidate who says stuff like this is not to be trusted. I know that a possible candidate that would promise "immediate return of Crimea" is not to be trusted, as that would mean he is an idiot who makes promises without thinking of how exactly he could fulfill them. >


His team fear for his safety

That's a crack team. Was their first clue the attempted poisoning?
