Coito Ergo Sum

"And your blacks are hung." Such was the last and decisive argument in the ideological dispute of the administrator of the Soviet “Intourist” with the Mr. Twisters, who, you see, did not allow bugs all night. Since then, much has changed. The democratic revolution in Russia, whose need spoke so many generations of Russian Westerners, happened, eliminating bugs as a class, at least in five -star metropolitan hotels. Blacks have not been hung in America for a long time. They, as well as Tajiks, Kyrgyz, dozens of the Kyrgyz in Russia kill the grandchildren of those very administrator in Russia - only because they are Africans, Tajiks, Kyrgyz.

Apparently, their grandparents really did not give a damn about the fate of the "blacks who are hung in America" if they raised such grandchildren. Imagine, I even see in the expression on the student who was bored at the back desk, how he wants to cut the teacher of the teacher with the same murderous argument, when he too much takes him off the fate of democracy in Russia as a whole and about the rights of people of non -traditional sexual orientation in particular. But he looks carefully at the President of Barack Hussein Obama, and something stops him at the last moment. We need more fresh and modern ideological arguments. And they were found. Moreover, they were at hand.

All studies of public opinion of recent years in Russia have discovered a significant increase in hostility towards the United States, including young people. What is not surprising after a decade of the continuous hysterical anti -American campaign opened by the Office

Young people from Russia hate America, because adult uncles 24 hours a day inspire them from TV

President Putin to the nation in which he spoke: "Behind the back of Islamic terrorists are more powerful, more dangerous traditional enemies of Russia." In one of the surveys, for example, it turned out that up to 57% of respondents aged 18 to 29 years "condemn the torture in the prisons of Abu Graib and Guantanamo," which largely determines their extremely hostile attitude towards the United States. I completely share the pathos of human rights activists around the world, fighting with really taking place in American prisons by human rights violations. It would be ready to be glad that 57% of my young compatriots are as unclear to such intolerable phenomena as European and American intellectuals.

But one circumstance confuses. These young people live in Russia and know very well that propaganda, but Abu Graib and Guantanamo, with all the outrages that were being created there, is a sanatorium in comparison not only with the famous insulator in Chernokozov, but also with ordinary Russian pre-trial detention centers and an ordinary Russian barracks. Even a single Islamic prisoner, the legs along with the genitals were cut off and not a single one was raped by a bottle of champagne.

54% of respondents (perhaps these are the same people) believe that I.V. Stalin brought the country more good than bad. This is not a historical, but a moral assessment of our "human rights activists". It turns out, it turns out, as our young patriots believe, such “good deeds”, for the sake of which it was possible and even necessary to ruin millions of Russian and Soviet people. "Prisoners of Abu Graib and Guantanamo" for us the same bargaining propaganda coin as the "blacks that are hung" for the Intourist Key. By the way, a couple of prisoners who were released under the pressure of the progressive world community have already managed to overshadow in Russian insulators.

We hate America not because of the prisoners of Guantanamo, on which our young patriots do not give a damn. Young people hate America, because adult uncles inspire them from TV 24 hours a day. And our Chekist-capitals who order this music hate America doubly. Firstly, in the service. Another ideology, in addition to anti -Americanism, which could rally the masses around the unused and unprecedented even in the history of the pussy of theft, these fathers have no nation. Secondly, from the heart. They gathered their treasures not in the sky, but the chests with wealth were stored not in the socially close to North Korea, Iran or Venezuela, but all in the same cursed USA, for which - realizing their dependence and vulnerability - they hate them even more.

The famous motto of the philosopher Rene Descartes reads: Cogito Ergo Sum, "I think - therefore I exist." It seems that the Russian political "thinkers" have somewhat transformed it: Coito America Ergo Sum, "*** America - therefore exist." We, or rather, inciting this hatred of Russia, hate America primarily because they hate and despise themselves.
