Natan Sharansky famously divided the world into "free societies" and "fear societies." Under Trump, the United States seems to making the sad transition from the first into the second.

"The foreword is being written by former Soviet Union dissident and Israeli politician Natan Sharansky. ... [Sharansky] is also the founder of the Yisrael B'Aliyah political party, which merged with Benjamin Netanyahu's Likud party in 2003; today, he defends and cheers Israel's genocide in Gaza."
Former President George W. Bush, the father of the global war on terror that has suppressed and killed millions of people across the world, has announced that he is releasing a book of portraits of political prisoners.

Better yet, claiming that Nathan Sharansky was still Anatoly. The man went through enough Hell in the gulags that he doesn't need such blatant disrespect.

it is actually a genuine pity that Natan Sharansky is kind of a terrible person because the town square test is a genuinely insightful distinguishing marker between a society that just needs a change of government and a society that should be destroyed from the ground up with fire and sword
who owns the means of production is genuinely irrelevant compared to the right of dissent

yfw natan sharansky's country (whose side he has always unapologetically promoted w/r/t the conflict) catastrophically fails the natan sharansky town square test

The book is slated to extol human rights and dissent, despite the Bush administration’s legacy of having massively eroded those principles. The foreword is being written by Israeli politician Natan Sharansky, a former Israeli cabinet minister who defends and cheers Israel’s genocide in Gaza.

From 2024:

“‘All these [US congressional] hearings were the result of our report that all these universities, beginning from Harvard, are taking a lot of money from Qatar,’ bragged Natan Sharansky, a former Israeli Knesset member (MK) who previously held Chikli’s role and now chairs the ISGAP.”

On February 11, 1986, after years of international advocacy led by his wife Avital and supporters around the world, he walked across the Glienicke Bridge into freedom. That same day he flew directly to Israel and was welcomed as a symbol of perseverance.

Navalny avait entamé une courte correspondance avec le célèbre dissident soviétique Natan Sharansky. Les deux hommes, mus par un refus obstiné de la peur, s’amusent autant qu’ils se désespèrent des innombrables similitudes entre les systèmes soviétique et poutinien.

Natan Sharansky was born Anatoly Shcharansky in Donetsk, Ukrainian SSR, in 1948 to a Jewish family. In the Soviet Union, Jews faced restrictions: religion was discouraged, emigration denied, and openly Jewish identity could limit education and careers.

Carter sent a private letter to Andrei Sakharov; he imposed immediate sanctions when dissidents such as Natan Sharansky were placed on trial; and he instituted a grain embargo on the USSR after the invasion of Afghanistan.

He went further than anyone before. Or after, until now.
