Girls - what kind of girls there are in our country!
12:58 Katya Samutsevich: “Why does Putin use the aesthetics of religion. At the beginning of his reign there was Kursk, there were explosions of houses. He understood that if he did not recuse himself, Russian citizens could help him. And he turned to the historical tradition, when power came not from earthly manifestations, but from God himself. At the same time, the authorities took advantage of the lack of religion in the USSR, where it was in opposition to culture.
Our sudden appearance violated the image of power merged with Orthodox morality and expressed its falsity. Without the blessing of the patriarch, we merged the visual image of Orthodox culture and protest, saying that Orthodox culture does not belong to the patriarch and Putin, but may end up on the side of protest and rebellion.
We are waiting for a guilty verdict. I have mixed feelings. We lost. Compared to this machine we are nothing. We won. The system will not be able to hide the repressive course of this process.”
12:55 Maria Alekhina: “The power is unconscious. It’s as if there was no great terror recently. About Jesus in the Bible it is said: “Many say he is possessed by demons”: John 33: “We want to stone ourselves for blasphemy.” And with these words the Russian Orthodox Church justifies its treatises on blasphemy! The Gospel is no longer perceived as a revelation; it can be torn into quotes and shoved anywhere, used for any purpose. In this case applied to IM. Religious truth should not be static. she is a process, not a result. And the artistic situation must contain an internal conflict. “So-called” - accusers say about art. At the Brodsky trial they also said “So-called poems” and did not read these poems, as our witnesses only watched a clip on the Internet. I'm not afraid of you. I am not afraid of lies and fiction, poorly declared deception. You can deprive me of my so-called freedom. Inner freedom can never be taken away. It will live in the word and will continue in every caring person. And sincerity will win, and we will see it.”
12:47 Maria Alekhina: “Humility from a means of internal liberation has become a means of enslavement. We are innocent, the whole world is talking about it. The Prime Minister of England greets Putin not with words about the Olympics, but with a question about us. It's a shame. People are amorphous. They asked me what this piece of forest in Krasnoyarsk was to you. Nobody cares that the wife of Prime Minister Medvedev wants to build a mansion there and destroy the only juniper reserve in the country. They do not feel that they belong at their home, because they do not seem to feel that their home belongs. If their house is demolished, they will pack their things. The pre-trial detention center works to depersonalize. The regime is monotonous, meaningless. Tablecloth, plastic dishes - all this can be obtained only with the permission of the boss. We are against Putin's chaos, which is only superficially called a regime. A mutation of all institutions occurs with an external mutation of the form, and civil society is destroyed. Our motivation is identical to direct speech. This is stated in the Gospel: “he who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened.” We believe that it will be opened to us.”
12:42 Maria Alekhina: “The authorities will blush for a long time for this process. In a healthy society such a process is impossible. This is a pain that is hushed up, but always resolves afterwards. This is the conversation that our authorities are capable of - this court.
The form of teaching the philosophy of culture at universities is a legacy of the Soviet system. This leads to the marginalization of art, to rejection of those who are different, and to gender stereotypes. From childhood, the system teaches us to live automatically, not to pose key questions taking into account age, and instills cruelty. I have experience visiting psychiatric hospitals - and I say with confidence that any teenager who shows dissent can end up there. There are a lot of orphanages there. In our country, it is considered normal for a child who tries to escape from an orphanage to be placed in a psychiatric hospital and given amenazine, which was used to pacify dissidents back in Soviet times. All communication there is built on a system of subordination. And this increases their cruelty significantly. They stop trusting the world."
12:38 Nadya Tolokonnikova: “Dostoevsky was sentenced to death in connection with “bold expressions against the Orthodox Church and the supreme power.” After 10 terrible minutes of waiting for execution, the sentence was changed to 4 years of hard labor. Socrates was accused of corrupting youth and not recognizing the gods. He irritated influential townspeople with his critical, dialectical thinking. He was sentenced to death, refused to flee and drank a cup of hemlock. Saint Stephen was sentenced for “blasphemous words against Moses and God,” “they seized him and took him to the Sanhedrin.” If the court understood the words of Christ: “I want mercy and not sacrifice,” the courts would not condemn the innocent.
Thanks to Medvedev for the wonderful aphorism. If his term was carried out under the slogan - “freedom is better than lack of freedom.” Putinsky can go under the slogan - “prison is better than stoning.”
Finally, I will quote the songs of the PR group. They turned out to be prophetic - here, “The head of the KGB, their main saint, leads the protesters to the pre-trial detention center under escort.” It's about us. Listen: “Open all the doors, take off your shoulder straps, feel the smell of freedom with us.”
The audience applauds. Judge: “We are not in the theater!” Bailiff, evil: “Keep your emotions to yourself!”
