Parallel world
The conflict around the Pussy Riot case, tough discussions, accompanied by mutual insults, and the appearance of exotic victims in the court of the court unexpectedly demonstrated an advanced audience with a parallel world that exists nearby. Previously, she was not at all interested in them, since she did not touch him, but now he perceives him as a wild medieval anomaly on the streets of the post -industrial city.
This world has its own idea of history. In a simplified form, it comes down to the following. Russia was ruled by the pious sovereign Nicholas II (some have reverently mention the Holy Elder Gregory, but others believe that since the church is negative about the veneration of this person, then discuss this issue not possible), who was overthrown by the liberals, the representatives of the representatives and the world backstage. Then, in general, continuous bronzhens and Rosenfelds came to power, arranging a cruel persecution of the church, but, in the end, they were punished by the Generalissimo, who opened the temples, who won the war and reduced prices. Then he was replaced by the atheist Khrushchev, who had committed a new persecution, stopped after Brezhnev’s power, in which everything was good and calm, the plants worked, the collective farms flourished, and the open churches stood-who did not want to make a party-Komsomol career, he could go freely and fearlessly.
And then, under the Masons Gorbachev and Yeltsin, Catholics and other sectarians flooded the country, and the church was offended and humiliated. And the discovery of temples and monasteries at the same time took place according to God's will and the prayers of the elders, contrary to Masonic intrigues. Then Putin came, in which it seemed to be better, and America seemed to be afraid of us, and then for some reason she took and captured Libya, and now he is trying to swallow Syria. And we have all sorts of nightmares in Moscow-then some strange people go to the rallies for cooks and dollars, the girls in the cathedral of obscurity create.
This world has its own idea of world politics. For example, that in the city of Brussels there is a three -story computer “Beast”, into which all the data about all the inhabitants of the Earth are pumped. And the servants of the Antichrist, preparing his coming, control this computer. And some trilateral commission led everyone, and what kind of part is this is not our mind. It is also known that there is some kind of club, the name of which no one can pronounce-in it, Masons also settled and control the world. And they say that in the Vatican they are also hosting in some Orthodox patriarchies. And we must be especially vigilant in this world, and since there is little hope of our own forces, you need to listen to your confessor, who will not allow you to fall into the abyss of sin, albeit unintentional.
This world has its own idea of the economy. The country's support is agriculture that ensures food security. It is harmful to buy foreign products - Western people will not send anything good to us, only poison, which they themselves do not eat. Another support is the military industry, which in Soviet times protected us from an external threat, but under Gorbachev it was ruined by the NAR of the CIA. And as for any innovations, we need to think about ten times more whether we need them or is it all the “tricks” of the Western civilization, which we once bypassed both the cast iron and the steel, until the conspirators hit the back. And all sorts of designers with web designers in the addition of our country do not need in general-we would need to send them together with avant-garde players and by-musicians to the mine, let them get coal. Or in the army on the Syrian Front. Correctly father Vsevolod Chaplin said - maybe someone will become a normal person. How we are.
The parallel world is the world of people who are out of the rut two decades ago (and some of their children). It was then that they lost a normal life - with a guaranteed salary on the fifth and twentieth, paid on time. With a sense of predictability, confidence in the future, albeit not luxurious, but more or less fed. With small joys like buying scarce boots, trips to a tourist trip or the opportunity to get the last novel of Pikul. With the complete lack of the need for reading Solzhenitsyn and even more so Max Weber or Berdyaev (so in post -perestroika time they, unlike the impoverished democratic intelligentsia, did not have compensation in the form of fulfilling the cherished dream - the opportunity to read from their own choice). Only their world remains-the one where someone needs them, the one where they can rely on the authority, which was lost twenty years ago-and often not so much the church as a particular priest, whose words become law for his flock.
And now people from the parallel world are really offended. An alien and terrible one rudely burst into their world, reminiscent of not so much the times of “militant atheists” (many believers have a very vague idea of them - it is not by chance, over the past decades, new martyrs, except for the royal family, have not been among the most revered Russian saints), but the perestroika years. For them, the parallel world is those who live in a post -industrial society, work in new sectors of the economy, regularly visits abroad and goes to rallies. And he does not see criminals in Pussy Riot - except perhaps ineptly self -exposing persons who would have enough 15 days. Or maybe this is unnecessary.
At the same time, two parallel worlds are two minorities, in total, the amount of 10 percent of the population. The remaining 90% look at the conflict (if they know about him) with some bewilderment-someone sympathizes with one position more, someone else. Many, to the question of sociologists about the measure of punishment, are expressed for criminal prosecution, but implies a conditional term by this, and not the years of conclusion (according to the April survey of the VTsIOM, only 10% requires a real term for girls).
The problem is not so much in the confrontation of parallel worlds, but in the fact that the state in this case took the side of one of them, moreover, more archaic, more implacable, but one that is closer to it. If only because the people living in it will never go to Bolotnaya Square to demand democratic freedoms.
But the point is not only in the political calculation. The state power itself, consisting of successful and non -poor people, suffers in a mitigated form by many of those fears and adheres to some stereotypes inherent in the "Orthodox" parallel to the world. Despite the possession of powerful resources, the authorities feels its weakness and vulnerability in the global world, which lives according to the rules less and less understandable to it - hence the protection and anti -war. The “zero generation” is incomprehensible and alien to her, political liberals cause her rejection, and Stalin is still a completely acceptable figure for many “state people”. Being successful with the presidency of Boris Yeltsin (and erecting a monument to him in Yekaterinburg), she condemns the “dashing nineties” and actively uses this motive in anti -Opoption propaganda. Of course, it does not demonize the notorious Brussels computer, but there are enough conspiracy variations on the topic of “conspiracy theory”.
Therefore, the phenomenon of “hamucan justice” is not surprising - the legal successor of “bassman’s justice”, only even more rude and causing the opposition even more irritation. And this choice goes beyond the scope of local history - it is difficult for the state to stop after a series of reactionary laws on rallies, NPOs and slander, which fit into the same protective trend as the Pussy Riot case. Therefore, the repulsion of the most active and dynamic Russians, apparently, will continue - in the best case, we are talking about the deviation of the most stupid and unnecessary power of initiatives, such as the fighting of the media with foreign participation, but not about changing the course. And this is sad - for the desired future of the country, unless, of course, it consists in creating a modern competitive society, not burdened by phobias and hatred.
