Errors March 5
I would like to know what Russia will look like on the day when March 5th comes for Putin in earnest (Stalin died on March 5th).
I think that no one will notice his death, no one will be strangled, no one will be crushed on Sretenka, no one will be crushed on Trubnaya Square; that no one will smear tears down their faces, that even Govorukhin will not mourn him. Everyone will leave, and Putin will be left alone. Somewhere, in a modest room, some boring government officials will lay boring bouquets on him. The people, most likely, will act as in the anecdote of Konstantin Borovoy - they will sing and dance, and the machine gunners will drink tea on the roof of Gostiny Dvor.
There will be no second Stalin. And it’s good that it won’t. During this time, the people have cooled off greatly; for supporting the tyrants they are already demanding 3,000 rubles, not cheaper. Look, even ordinary workers demanded a bottle of vodka for themselves when they were being transported from Kaluga. And they were already ready to tear throats and break spears for Stalin.
Putin's time has passed. He didn't notice. It’s not the time, it’s not the right time to act. March 5th was marked by the extreme absurdity of Putin’s behavior and the behavior of the authorities. They didn't have enough fans, so on the last night, when votes were still being counted, they brought in crooks from all over the country. Crooks and cowards with balloons and hearts who danced there on Manezhnaya Square. They brought extras from all over the country and praised Putin as best they could. This, of course, is the last thing - buying yourself extras.
And the same thing happened at Manezhka on the 5th. Mercenaries, Potemkin villages. "Glory to the Marquis, Marquis Barabas! It all belongs to him!" That is, Putin has already lost the people's love.
Some vodka, some money, some time off - this is the price of people's love.
Putin lost, but we didn’t win either. I think that if 500 thousand people of pure democrats came to Pushkin Square, without any Udaltsov, without any Limonovs, who came to the Lubyanka, without any communists, the Left Front... so, pure democrats. If there were 500 thousand of them, they would indeed block Tverskaya.
A rally is not enough for this regime to fall. But in order for it to tremble, pure rallies must begin. Pure rallies, unambiguous rallies of the Western choice, the choice against Putin, ideological rallies - in all cities, not only in Moscow and St. Petersburg. And they must be large enough so that they cannot be overclocked. I would like to know who will, and with what, disperse a 2-million-strong rally in Moscow. I think there will be nothing to disperse, and no riot police will even come close, because there will be nowhere to squeeze in.
In order for this to happen, the people who go to this rally must have a guarantee that they will not be converted to their miserable places in the illegitimate State Duma.
I think that the turnout for this rally was greatly reduced by the visit of Nemtsov, Udaltsov, Ryzhkov to Medvedev’s tea in Gorki.
And then - a meeting between Ryzhkov and Udaltsov on the balcony of the illegitimate State Duma. I think that people were offended in their best feelings, they realized what they were being converted into, and decided not to pull chestnuts out of the fire for anyone anymore.
That is, the opposition is cutting the branch on which it sits, cutting it twice. The first time he does it is by dragging fascists and communists there, and making his protest absolutely incomprehensible, inedible, and useless. And the second thing is that she does not know how to behave with dignity and forgets about her own requirements. About our own resolutions, which were adopted with such enthusiasm.
We have 12 years to learn all these lessons and not pick up more bad marks. Because, in fact, revolutionaries have already walked these paths - in Flanders in the 16th-17th centuries, in France in the 19th century, and in the future United States of America, in the English overseas colony, in the 19th century, and in the 18th century... .
We are not the first on this path. You need to know what you are fighting for, and fight wisely, and not be afraid of anything.
Boris Nemtsov kept repeating in Gorki “We cannot allow a revolution, we cannot allow a revolution.”
So after all, they don’t want to allow a revolution! Here, opposites come together.
