In the Kremlin

Triple in the election

July 8, 2011 Alexey Kondaurov

Everything develops according to a poor scenario: Khodorkovsky and Lebedev were sent to the north, the odious seagull was reassembled, a batch of folk freedom was not registered, Prokhorov put on a “right business”, they opened draft points for Putin’s People’s Front, and began to clash the window to Strasbourg. In response to the list of Senator Cardin, the Dumans are making their lists of undesirable foreigners. The frenzy of power can only indicate one thing - the prime minister really returns to the presidency. It ends, as it was “familyly”, a short historical segment of the Kremlin seats Medvedev was decided: the highest layer of corrupt officials did not touch, and a good boy, a good boy. The candidate of legal sciences coped with security functions, as he was entrusted. As for Russia, she still sleepily escorts the next four joyless, meaningless, merciless years. And on the horizon - a dull time.

Political scientists, on the eve of the new electoral cycle, come to the agitation from forecasts and fortune -telling. They are tormented by insoluble issues of Moscow Genesis: Putin or Medvedev, how much they will throw it so that United Russia is comfortable in the new Duma, by what percentage they benefit Prokhorov, so that the system liberals even more closely rally the ranks around the “father of the nation”, about which they bargained with the “sovereign” Zyuganov and the “soil” Zhirinovsky, Zhirinovsky. Will they sacrifice the paratrooper Mironov and his Duma platoon? Forecasts are accompanied by a persistent typographic smell of printed money, which by December 2011, in the elegant expression of one of the heroes of Vasily Shukshin, “begin to burn the thighs” to the leaders, organizers and guardians of the “struggle for votes of voters”.

Labor groups and creative unions mobilized by the authorities in a controlled impulse surround a living ring before Putin’s elections, occupying a circular defense around the Kremlin perimeter. Honestly, with Mr. Churov and his many disciplined army of teachers, doctors and other bonded state employees who is in his sound memory, the total set of new battalions of Putinism defenders seems excessive. The vulgarity of the “front -line” venture is probably understood not only by the grandmaster Karpov and Dr. Roshal, who voluntarily standing under the propaganda gun, but also the singer of adapted Russian folklore Nadezhda Babkin. However, if the plan implies the participation of the population in circular border with the “father of the nation”, then the vulgarity does not at all detract from cunning.

They are about to start calling and vote. In former times, they were not particularly worried about the turnout, since it did not have a serious influence on the result in advance. Now there will be no problems with victorious figures either, but, according to experts, about fifteen to twenty will have to be thrown in favor of their own. Such a huge level of falsifications with a minor turnout is not comme il faut, and only the percentage of support from a large number of voters will ensure at least some visibility of legitimacy, which will be desperately in the conditions of the inevitable increase in discontent. It is no secret that, having managed in December 2011 and March 2012 with formalities and bringing himself “hygienically” to the divine view, as Mr. Putin advises, the guys who at the storm will continue the glorious corruption and thieves' affairs, and in two or three years they will bring the country to the pen even at 300 dollars per barrel. The fact that they managed to make up for 12 years and how many more will they get out in the remaining few years before the uterine multimillion -dollar roar "went on ... !!!" - Ceremer for several generations, if at all it is possible to dry out. And the legitimacy for these gentlemen is at least some straw during the rebellion.

Understanding the inevitability of the collapse of the country with the “father of the nation” at the head, it is ridiculous to raise the issue of existential choice: to go or not go to the urns. To go is to arrange a straw of crooking power. Understanding that they will frustrate, it means to deliberately turn a blind eye to lawlessness and play along with all those who publicly saw “blood” taxpayers, plugging the multimillion -dollar holes of the “Bank of Moscow” and VTB, building the bridge on the island of “Russian” and Olympic objects in Sochi, roof underground casinos, it pashes on squares and in courts. Going, choosing a clear report that your participation in the elections is needed only to bring democratic blush on the authoritarian murlo, means losing the remnants of self -esteem and an elementary idea of ​​morality. Any thinking and decent person should be ashamed to participate in such a farce.

There are many well -known experts and analysts who believe that the call to the boycott of the elections and non -participation destroy this important democratic institution, and therefore, they say, we must go. But is it that it is known about many years of frank falsifications, the prevention of opposition politicians and parties to the elections of opposition politicians and parties, about the seizure of the columns “against all” and other amendments that emerged democratic principles of the election law, on the total brainwashing, de facto did not destroy the elections? The question is rather rhetorical.

“To be or not to be” is decided today through the answer “to participate or not to participate in the illegal business, being related to circular guaranteeing a regime,” and an individual choice is unlikely to be simply political, it is initially aesthetic and moral.
