The story of the procession and rally that anti -fascists in Moscow for the anniversary of the murder of lawyer Stanislav Markelov and journalist Anastasia Baburova in Moscow came out very indicative. At first, the event was not allowed for a long time - under the pretext that the city hall was during the New Year holidays. Then they allowed. As a result, skirmishes with the police occurred. Young anti -fascists, Antifa is not the most calm audience, but the police, as usual, showed themselves more than asymmetrically.
And here something happened, hitherto unprecedented in the history of the confrontation between the protesting opposition and police officers. One of the witnesses of events, the young blogger Ivan Mitin describes what happened like this:
Human rights activist Lev Ponomarev offered the police a deal: everyone diverges, and for this, the protesters receive 18 detainees back. But the people did not disperse. "Do not believe the cops, Ponomarev." They demanded evidence that 18 people would be released now. The cones came, they began to decide who to let them go.
Ponomarev and the company wanted some bus to be released, which had already left somewhere. They began to call the bus. They called one of the detainees. He was supposed to give the phone to the “accompanying” to their policeman, but he refused to pick up the phone. For about ten minutes they bought with cones, which could not affect the situation. As a result, we went to look at another bus. Moreover, they demanded to stay from the press. But the press, of course, followed them. We came to the bus. "Hello, Comrade Chief. And just the samovar was dripped, do you want to be pretzels with poppy?"
The generous police released not 18 people, but as much as 22! This was reported to disturbing citizens - and it was urgent to clean the room. The rally ended as incomprehensible as it began. On the almost empty square, only candles remained to burn.
So, since last week, a new concept has entered into the practice of the relationship between the police and the protesters: hostility. The police are taken away - the organizers offer a deal - the police are released - the event is finished. Legal, permitted event. Of course, getting free from a police bus is better than already from the police department. However, the scheme “People in exchange for leaving the square” itself is not the best that the opposition in the street dialogue with the authorities can offer. Which was noted by many bloggers.
On the blog of Ivan Mitin, a very characteristic dialogue took place. The question is: "I can’t understand something: the police from us or something approved by the murders of journalists? Why such passions?" And the answer: “As one cop said,” the occupation forces in this country! ” However, the policemen were by no means invented by the hostage scheme. And therefore, new detentions and new terminations of legal processions, pickets, rallies. With the kind will of those who organize them; no pressure.
So -so prospect, to be honest.

Before the meeting of the State Council on State Building-a meeting, where the issues of the reform of the political system were considered-last week the bloggers looked in a new way, not a lot and not a little, at the President of Russia Dmitry Medvedev. Actually, about reform - designed to give a system opposition a little more chances for the presence of different levels in legislative assemblies - first spoke Dmitry Anatolyevich himself in the message to the Federal Assembly. Therefore, bloggers have a question: how should Medvedev’s modernization efforts should evaluate? And should they consider them for efforts at all? And, moreover, do Dmitry Medvedev should be considered as any acting leader, given the prevailing tandemocracy?
In blogs - as always, the most extreme points of view. Political scientist Alexei Chadaev determined , as it seems to him, the main features of Medvedev’s modernization - and, wider, the differences between the advancing tenths from the nineties and zero. Declaratively, biting; It will quite pull on the manifesto of new guards:
Modernization is the first attempt to find the name of the main trend of the 2010s. This trend - the transition from the division of the Soviet inheritance to the construction of a new economy - is due to the iron logic of the situation: there is nothing more to share. But the key to the success of the creative modernization program is in the ability to protect the redistribution created from the all -devouring machine. So, the tenths are opposite to both nineties and zero.
Those who want to work and create do not need yachts and villas of marauders of past eras. Another thing is needed: that they are not - at least as a factor in the social life of the new class. This class needs that the ruble earned by its own mind or labor is worth more than a hundred rubles earned by Russian hydrocarbons for rusty Soviet pipes. Only then people who create new ideas, new technologies and new businesses will receive a chance to become the first. So, they will be able to want to make the impossible.
The one who manages to solve this problem will become the leader of this new class. So, the leader of Russia in the 2010s.
Who said Medvedev?
On the opposite flank - as always, more colorful. The opposition scriptwriter and writer Oleg Kozyrev, polemicizing with the article by oppositionist Marina Litvinovich - that considered “Medvedev’s words, his conversations about the need for modernization gave rise to a new public resonance,” and the country, therefore, awakens, expressed the following thoughts in his network diary:
Honest judges had previously given their definitions, both yesterday and last days were Dymovsky - only on blogs, not in the video blogs for now.
Moreover, I will say: yesterday and last days and people were born, and the sun went up, and there were shares, and there were certain steps.
Medvedev did not cause anything but the hope of a narrow layer of some people to get into political technological budgets or to the budgets of any nanoprojects.
All.
This was cut Medvedev - nothing more.
That's all the move that you can notice.
There is no hope, no steps, no challenges - nothing. The void is one.
It should be noted that Oleg Kozyrev’s entry appeared a few days before the police major Alexei Dymovsky was arrested in the courtroom for a rather slurred one - it seemed to bloggers - Jew. According to the court, the stay of Dymovsky at large is threatened by investigators in a case initiated against a disgraced policeman (according to investigators, he was flooded with 27 thousand rubles of state money). So the thaw thaw, modernization modernization - and the outrageous of public peace will be sitting on schedule. Known only to representatives of the authorities.
