Walk and butt

Anton Oresh, with whom I often do not agree, but rarely argue, made a very accurate remark regarding the disconnection of the rain: “The readiness of businessmen to implicitly fulfill even the order, but the recommendation is a great achievement of the reign of Vladimir Vladimirovich.” I would like to note that such a position of businessmen is not a special case - it fits perfectly into the current stereotype of public behavior. Roughly speaking, the slaves are content with crumbs from the bar table and are afraid to rebel, afraid to lose what they have.

If this only concerned businessmen! The servile psychology is almost most of our society, and even as for the creative and scientific intelligentsia - so accurately the vast majority. Each case when someone defends their position in the conflict with the authorities is perceived as a personal feat. But in fact, this is the normal behavior of worthy people, respectable citizens. The biggest achievement of Vladimir Vladimirovich is that normal social behavior becomes exceptional, and completely different norms are rooted in the public mind - the bar is lowering lower, and you can’t change your shoes with a whip ”more and more often.

A famous theater figure shoots a sized film with the show so as not to risk the well -being of the theater. The actress, busy with charity, agitates Putin so as not to risk the fate of her fund. Human rights activists join state structures, the arbitrariness of which undertook to protect other citizens. The opposition leaders go to the Kremlin to establish contacts with the authorities, which they themselves recognize illegitimate. An independent television channel apologizes for the question that the Kremlin ideologists did not like. Oppositionists bow to the city authorities to conduct a demonstration of protest.

Each has its own business, which is worth it, holding your nose and holding your breath, get dirty a little about the power that has fallen on us. And since this became the norm of behavior, as a result, the whole society turns out to be stained. And everyone stands with clamped noses, not breathing and perplexing, how we have reached that and when it ends.

Never! With this lack of disgust and Kholui, this will never end. We will continue to live as we have lived before. As they always lived.
