Friends of the people

If anyone had any doubts (did they really?) who the true “friends of the people” were, then in these days life itself clarified everything to us. The tragedy of Krymsk demonstrated the complete collapse of the system of civil defense and prevention of mass deaths from natural disasters - while the Duma, meanwhile, is enthusiastically discussing the law on “foreign agents.” Tkachev publicly declares that they couldn’t knock on every house and that even if they knocked, it would still be in vain, because people wouldn’t evacuate anywhere at night - and meanwhile the deputies are passionately demanding that Belykh be expelled and find the mythical distillery and sawmill. What is there to talk about here?
