Our circus

On the channel "365 days TV", in the documentary series "History of Russia. XX century”, there is a film “1944. Ten Stalinist blows.

Without the slightest trace of irony or reflection on the name, of course. All solemnly and in all seriousness.

The first and last time I heard about "Stalin's ten blows" was in 1972, in the seventh grade, from the historian Elena Pavlovna. It should be noted that already in those years it was completely indecent; Elena Pavlovna looked like an animal lizard, lagging behind social evolution ...

And now, some forty-two years later, Russia, like an old circus horse, shaking its mangy plume, again performs its thrash, thump, thump around this hopeless circle.

Blinders combined with insanity protect her from reality. The public has been pouring out of this circus for a long time, but the horse is filled with a sense of self-worth, and is terribly proud of the repertoire.
