My blog posts haunt the head of the Tula Regional Ministry of Internal Affairs S.E. Matveev

Another “letter of happiness” arrived from the main Tula police officer, Major General Matveev. No. 3/1210. Naturally, not to me, but to our ruling bishop. This is already the third epistolary message from the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs for the Tula region dedicated to me over the past 7 months! What is the genre of writing? There are letters of orders, letters of threats, letters of petition. And this is called “information for your information.” Only instead of the signature “well-wisher” there is S.E. Matveev.

The repertoire of my “atrocities” is still the same: Retired participated in protests. Yes, I participated. And he protested against election fraud, against lies, against distortion of the people's will, against undermining the constitutional foundations of the state. And you, Mr. General, are you really in favor?! Retirees "make friends with bad guys." Those. some kind of “destructive non-systemic opposition.” (wonderful legal turn). Yes, I am a member of the Tula Committee “For Fair Elections!” This includes such “extremist organizations” as the Communist Party of the Russian Federation, “Yabloko”, “Council of House Committees of Tula”, “MOO “Senior Generation”, etc. Or, in order to be a respectable citizen, you need to be friends only with the United Russia party?

But the main thing is my posts, as I understand it. A whole bunch of printouts of posts on different topics are attached))). The last paragraph of the letter says that my journalistic and social activities “negatively affect the state of the operational situation in the socio-political sphere and the sphere of interfaith relations.” Since the head of the regional Ministry of Internal Affairs writes, apparently, specifically in the Tula region? That is, as I understand it, my modest social service, my journalism, influences “the growth of crime in the region entrusted to Mr. Matveev,” the “growth of social or political conflicts in the region,” the “interfaith strife, accompanied by the arson of synagogues, Orthodox churches and Muslim prayer houses in the Tula region"? If it doesn’t affect, then why write THIS? After all, if I had written THIS about the major general, he would have immediately filed a lawsuit to protect his honor, dignity and business reputation. And he would be right. But, apparently, what an ordinary citizen of the Russian Federation cannot do, a police general in stripes can do.
