Where is the crisis of culture. Andrey Pelipenko

About Pushkin . About Gogol . Again, a researcher stumbles on Pushkin , who concludes that Russian life has come to a dead end, from which there is no way back or forward. That is, the idea of ​​Pushkin, about the great culture is like the last straw, for which the consciousness of a Russian person clutches: if everything is so bad and hopeless, why is our culture quite competitive? He even says: Great. At least in its highest samples. It means that everything is not so terrible if such capable people are sometimes born in our Palestines that ... But there is one who decides to refute this possibility of complacency, who says-no, just a culture in everything and is to blame, yes, it is she who is responsible for the fact that instead of the personality we have in most cases an empty place, instead of responsibility-the desire to shove it somewhere, upstairs in the sky-free heights, when we ourselves are ourselves, when we ourselves are ourselves We are unhappy with everything in the world, but at the same time we consider ourselves arrogantly by representatives of special spirituality, such that - and the steam will go ...

It is about the responsibility of culture, culture in the broadest sense, in the disappointing results of our social and political development, that the participants of the seminar are thinking “where does the crisis of culture”, believing the culture of the broth, from which all those microbes and bacteria grow that they turned Ilya Murumets and Emel Pugachev into Emelya-on-Peca and Ivan-Durak. In these our proverbs - a fried rooster will not peck, the man does not cross; Work is not a wolf - it will not run into the forest . Etc. Pushkin was wrong, calling the rebellion a meaningless occupation, says Andrei Pelipenko, believing that the rebellion is the natural reaction of the Russian person to the situation in the Russian system, which the researcher prophesies an early disappearance.

What is the Russian system, how does it differ from Russian culture, why is its typical representative - not necessarily Russian, but necessarily deprived of such a thing as a person? Why is the greatest fear in this system the possibility of chaos (therefore, they are constantly frightened by the rebellion and merciless we are constantly scared)? If only there was no war (war as a synonym for chaos), if only not a revolution (we have already passed, we remember the revolutionary sailors defeating in the palaces). Leave us alone, we want to rot on our own.

But, alas, it is independence, social responsibility, a sense of a sovereign personality that is impossible within the framework of the Russian system. A person does not feel the order in himself, does not want him to be considered responsible for the order inside and around him and requires that the order, at least illusory, be brought on top, with a strong iron hand of power, which he delegates all the very important personal powers with which a normal non -systemic person should part only under the threat of death.

But the fact of the matter is that within the framework of the Russian system-an independent person, responsible, thinking in his own way, and not in unison with general breathing-is suspicious, undesirable, exposed and repressions. What he imagines about himself, what other personality, he is simply - the enemy, the fifth column, the small people among our great -power splendor. Black sheep in a white herd of irresponsibility. He does not understand what ministry, service to the proper, the service of the great Russian system, which for so many centuries with an imperious hand attracted to him amazed and conquered by force and cruelty (but on the soft lining of Russian spirituality).

That is why the properties of the Russian system were great power, hazing, Russian imperialism, social inferiority, sacralization of power as the only power that protects us from the chaos of wars, revolutions, reforms, and any changes. Since no changes are needed by the Russian system - it is fundamentally static and majestic, like Putin with amphoras, she tried to freeze all past centuries in the pose of narcissism, arrogance, world mining, envy and distrust of all to everyone, but at the same time serious pride in the homeland, which is not the tsarist village, but the Russian system.

Of course, no one prevents the author from asking us, but was the Russian system and is only on Russian land, is it a man that he considers to be a branded dish of the Russian system, does it only have a place to be in Russia, and not everywhere? Is the rejection of personal responsibility, the ability to think is dangerous for yourself and build a strategy of life, contrary to the general direction, is not a prerogative of few in all cultures, and not just in Russian? Is Putin impossible anywhere except ours, but the same Bush or Berlusconi would be happy to become Putin, but the society does not give?

That's the point, the researcher is lamented that the vector of development of the Russian system and, say, French or Italian are diametrically opposed. There is a cattle everywhere, but the role of personality in one way or another increases in other systems, and here it is steadily striving for zero, be around monarchy, socialism, capitalism. And therefore is doomed to extinction. “The fact is that the attitude to a person and to the subject in general, as a consumable material, for the RS (Russian system) is not a means, but a goal. For the greatness of the ideocratic project is measured not by the degree of its implementation (the greatness of the idea is always inversely proportional to the measure of its feasibility), but exclusively by the scale of the victims. RS literally feeds on the energy of human lives brought to her. The historical result of these sacrifices, whether it was the inconspicuous millions of vankov in gray overcoats, grinded by countless Russian wars, or the costs of the construction of socialism, or really great military victories (like a victory in the Great Patriotic War), measured by tons of camp dust) fades into the background. ”

So, Andrei Pelipenko prophesies (in the photo) , the Russian system is steadily and at all pores rushes to death. The last historical fork, when it was still possible to turn off the fatal path, was a restructuring. But this chance was missed. After that, “Russia finally lost the opportunity to jump onto the bandwagon rapidly gaining the speed of the train train. RS has no future, and therefore the further decay of Russia is apparently inevitable. The cultural and psychological potential of integration is collapsed before our eyes, like shagren skin, and there is nothing more than inertia, fear of uncertainty and short-term circumstances of a political and economic nature on another bowl. The moment is close when the chaos, generated by the authorities itself, will outweigh the fear of the chaos of an abundance. ” And then the imperious vertical will appear with a card house, which is sprinkled from top to bottom. Our father will not be a father, but a bitch . “For outwardly incomprehensible reasons, fierce orders will cease to be carried out, devoted dogs will be grinned at their owners, faithful slaves will run scattering, and the drug of imperial myths will stop intoxicated the mass consciousness.”

Alas, the reader will say, shaking his head: Andrei Pelipenko scares, but I'm not scared. Who only and how did not scare us. Now they scare the death of the Russian system, the collapse of Russia and the outrageous horror for a person who has not become a person, but repeating that chewing gum that serves him on a dish from a zombie. Yes, we all (or almost all) see and feel that the future flatly refuses to be bright. It is only in Gorky that a man was created for happiness, like a bird for a flight to the moon. We will live among the ruins. In the end, from which this Russian system is woven, as not from myths. Holy place is not empty. How he used you. You. Rozanov: A gentle idea will survive iron ideas. What to do if a person cannot without empty pride, without self -deception. And what is the name of this self -deception is a tenth business.
