The concept of the “three Ds” and the hysteria of liberals

Yury Polyakov, editor-in-chief of Literaturnaya Gazeta, gave an interview to Komsomolskaya Pravda (March 16, 2005). According to the writer, the main problems now in the country are "state insufficiency and dilettantism and incompetence" .

The existing opposition is ridiculous, people do not want opposition, but strong power - and this is normal: "There are always more people with a statist worldview. And there have always been boyars in Russia and there was a people who are interested in the "breadwinner" of these same boyars to rein in. "

The national idea is absolutely necessary, Yu. Polyakov believes: "The national idea should not only be formulated, but accepted by society ... I tried to formulate my own. "Three" e ": spirituality, sovereignty, prosperity. For those who are particularly interested - democracy. Four "d"" .

TV presenters received separate attacks from Polyakov: "The Kremlin tower broadcasts one position, and the Ostankino tower - another" - pro-Western, inspiring "the population with a national inferiority complex . " "Look who is broadcasting political programs - they are mostly people of liberal views, often even anti-state." We need a "nationwide [read: "Kremlin" - ed. ] view" on what is happening in the country. "The hysteria about the attack on freedom of speech is due to the fact that the liberals' monopoly in the media is gradually being lost ," the writer believes.
