Campaign: "Give Durov back"
Yesterday I came across a most interesting post. This is a peculiar reaction (even a little radical) to the “gift to the people of St. Petersburg” from Durov in the form of several five thousand dollar bills lowered on airplanes from the cozy window of his own office:
“Dear friends! I think that Mr. Durov’s act of drinking generosity did not leave each of us indifferent. You can treat it in any way you like, but the fact of the “evolution” of our Zuckerberogova is obvious. A nice guy from an innovator and innovator turns into a snickering moneybag. a characteristic symptom - Pavel Valerievich deigned to give money to his slaves on a holiday. I, for example, will stubbornly hope that the young man will come to his senses, but it won’t hurt to teach him a lesson solely for the purpose of prevention, both for “showing off” and for “broken noses.” our stupid compatriots, share for share.
It will be called simply: “give Durov the change.” All mature, active citizens of our nascent society are invited to participate. The meaning is as simple as three kopecks. There are actually several options:
1). Wait until the end of Pasha’s working day and “shower” him with symbolic change from the money that he generously scattered for the city day. But please pay attention! This does not mean that you need to throw coins in his face as hard as you can. Noooo! Just quietly throw on the pieces of iron in the form of a soft “cold shower”. This is what they do, for example, at weddings and no one has ever been hurt.
2) The option is even more liberal: simply throw the change to Pasha under the main entrance to the building. If it turns out to be a good slide, it will be great. I hope this symbolism will reach him.
3) This idea is beautiful, but dangerous. Return the change to where it came from. Out the office window. Actually, conceptually, but money can hurt passers-by, and therefore, most likely, we will refuse it.
It would be nice to also prepare a few transporants. In general, we gather, discuss, choose. Unsubscribe who will definitely go..."
Personally, I believe that Durov’s trick can be assessed from different angles. If he really did not want to mock the townspeople, then the fight and stampede are just an “accident,” which, however, fully exposes all the “redneckness” of our society. And any actions of “retribution” are unnecessary here. If the creator of VKontakte decided to simply “show off” how his servants would fight for money, then this is the first alarm signal and it is unlikely that he should get away with it next time.
