Russian minced meat

After all, nationalism is a state monopoly, and all sorts of “healthy” nationalists exist as long as they don’t break this very monopoly with their kolovrats. In these situations, the state suddenly recalls that it has a Criminal Code

Russian nationalism is now defined as follows: "The demand for a fair distribution of budgetary funds between the constituent entities of the Russian Federation, the demand for fair elections, the protection of constitutional rights." This is a quote from the "coordination" of the "Russian March" signed by an official

Russian nationalism is now defined as follows: "Celebration of the Day of National Unity, the demand for a fair distribution of budgetary funds between the constituent entities of the Russian Federation, the demand for fair and free elections, the protection of the constitutional rights of citizens." This is a quote from the “coordination” of the “Russian March” (the main one is in Lublin) signed by an official. The slogans of the action, published in LiveJournal by one of the key activists, Vladimir Tor, sounded somewhat different. For example: "Immigrant, it's time to go home!", "Let's return Russia to the Russians!" In the course of the action itself, of course, there were ridges, and twisted faces, and slogans: “Russia for Russians, Moscow for Muscovites, come on, let’s get * fast!”, “Moscow is not the Caucasus! ..” Procession dressed up drummers led, however, due to weather conditions, without mini-skirts. There were also highly intellectual motives that made it possible to suspect some influence of the Old Square on "healthy" nationalists: "Orangeism is the enemy of statehood."

Unfortunately, it is extremely difficult to separate the “healthy” nationalist forces, for cooperation with which 59% of readers voted on the Novaya website and which Alexei Navalny undertook to personify, from the unhealthy ones. The words spoken during the procession and rally were no different from the previous actions of unhealthy forces, except for individual anti-United Russia ditties like: "Allah gives Chechnya budgets, thanks to Putin for this."

“The future belongs to us” is also an old, delicately speaking, ultra-nationalist chant of various kinds of radical movements (Il domani appartiene a noi in the Italian version, and if anyone remembers, in the movie Cabaret, a blond Nazi youth sings the song Tomorrow belongs to me.) Of course, of course, the Kolovrat, which was present along with the "imperial" flag in the columns, is not a swastika. But for some reason, at the same time, everyone perfectly understands where it grows from ...

The competent authorities are well prepared for the "march". The nationalists split along "ethnic" lines. Some insisted that "There is no Russia without the Caucasus", others, respectively, remained committed to the call "Stop feeding the Caucasus." Kremlin youth "marched" at the All-Russian Exhibition Center. The "March" in Lublin was cordoned off, helicopters patrolled it from the sky. In relation to one of the leaders of the Russian movement, Dmitry Demushkin, a criminal case was opened in advance, and the publicist Konstantin Krylov was taken away right before the Russian March for educational purposes: his example is another science. After all, nationalism is a state monopoly, and all sorts of “healthy” nationalists exist as long as they don’t break this very monopoly with their kolovrats. In these situations, the state suddenly remembers that it has a criminal code. And so it, the state, itself has nothing against “Russians, forward!”, “Forgive me, crucified Russia!”, “Russian march - for the Russian empire!”.

According to the Levada Center, 26% of respondents have a positive attitude towards the idea of ​​the Russian March, 30% - negatively, 45% - find it difficult to answer. "Russians, go ahead!" they said in Lublin. That's just - where?
