One for all and all against all

It just so happens that I am writing this on the day of remembrance of the murdered anti-fascists Baburova and Markelov and the day after the suicide of the National Bolshevik-other-Russian Dolmatov.

Don't you think that some kind of crap is happening in the country? Don’t it seem to our opposition “leaders” that it’s time to tie up their ambitions in a bag and drown them in the outhouse? Don’t it seem to our activists - anti-fascists, nationalists, Drugorossians, socialists, white ribbon activists, anarchists, gay activists, communists, etc., etc., that it’s time to stop calling each other non-handshake terms?

Doesn’t it seem that behind the words at rallies “we are all different, but we have the same goal” there should be some kind of action other than shaking the air? Demanding re-elections is great, but you will be at each other's throats until you agree on a single candidate. And losing the re-election (let’s imagine for a second that the government will take such a step) will mean the end and defeat, final and irrevocable.

“One for all, and all for one,” we shout at rallies. And in a whisper we add: “Except for the Nazis,” “Except for the p**ons,” “Except for the liberals,” “Except for the communists.” Anti-fascists were killed. We say: “But we won’t go, they are not “ours.” They killed (albeit indirectly) another Russian: “And “Other Russia” does not belong to the opposition,” we answer.

There is no CS. Instead of a platform to which any party that wants to promote ideas can join, we got a closed body that for 2 months has not adopted a single more or less adequate document that could be called “programmatic.” The Constitutional Court is not a government in exile, which has the right to criticize the government without offering anything in response. After all, the people who enter there are, in general, not bad and not stupid. Navalny is a lawyer and an experienced anti-corruption fighter. Why the hell is there still no anti-corruption law of his authorship? There are economists there - where is the bill on transferring the economy from a raw material model to at least a production model? There are scientists there - where is the alternative education reform? There are security officials, entrepreneurs, journalists - where are the departmental reforms, mechanisms for attracting capital, etc.? There are nationalists, there are socialist-communists, there are democrats - find common ground, divide areas of responsibility.

The authorities do not need to make any efforts to divide the opposition - they do it themselves. It’s enough to take a couple of phrases from the leaders’ tweets - and everything is on the surface.

How many more activists should be in prison, how many should be killed or forced to leave, how many should commit suicide for the fucking opposition to finally realize that there is nothing more valuable than human life and freedom. And that everything must be done to preserve both the first and the second. And everything else is not important.
