Sorcerers and us

How to remove damage from Russia using braces and spirituality

Russian propaganda, talking about liberals, says two important things.

First, liberals are disgusting. According to TV, liberals are subject to sexual perversions up to and including pedophilia. They are embarrassingly stupid, they do not understand geopolitics - the queen of the humanities. Having no shame, they are sold to foreign intelligence services, they speak at the behest of MOSSAD, the FBI and the SBU. They are weak, including physically.

The combination of physical weakness, stupidity, venality and perverse sexuality makes liberals nasty. A Russian, seeing them, is obliged to cross to the other side of the street.

Secondly, the liberals destroyed the USSR. Their conversations in the notorious kitchens, guitar songs, newspaper articles, satire, protests destroyed the second most influential state on the planet.

Liberals are disgusting and can destroy entire empires - a combination well known to specialists in the study of peasant folklore.

A disgusting person, capable of bringing misfortune and misfortune to good people, is a sorcerer.

Sorcerers are radically, to the point of ugliness, not like those around them. And, at the same time, they can send plague, dry up wells, destroy crops, deprive cows of milk.

Indeed, if in the speeches of Russian propagandists we replace the word “liberal” with the word “sorcerer”, and “liberal ideas” with “damage”, the essence of what happened to the Russian media exactly 3 years ago will become obvious.

Describing the events in eastern Ukraine, the Russian media switched to the language of the medieval crowd, seized with apocalyptic expectations. Indulging her fears, Russian propaganda claims that the sorcerers jinxed Russia, caused damage, started talking. From this damage, Russia has lost the most valuable thing - its greatness.

Given the warm attitude of Russians to mysticism, it is understandable why they believed in sorcerers. And at the same time, the roots of the current denial of liberalism are understandable: we are talking about chthonic horror before corruption. Anthropologist Mary Douglas wrote a lot about how this horror is strong in a person.

If liberals are sorcerers, then the president of Russia, using bonds and spirituality, is trying to remove the damage and return greatness back.

Political talk shows running in prime time on federal channels should be viewed as a battle of sorcerers. From the point of view of good Russians, patriots turn to God on the air, liberals turn to Lucifer. In the logic of folklore, the words spoken by both sides should be considered as incantations. Incantation formulas make no sense. They matter depending on how successfully they induce otherworldly forces to fulfill the will of a person.

If in the speeches of TV propagandists we replace the word “liberal” with “sorcerer”, and “liberal ideas” with “damage”, the essence of what happened to the Russian media becomes clear

From this perspective, the logic of the choral patriotic cry that the audience complains about becomes clear. In fact, patriots do not argue with liberals. The Patriots are faced with evil spirits. It is necessary to understand the feelings of people living in a space of horror: standing next to the liberals, they see demons in front of them, whose spells, cast in sinister kitchens, reduced great Russia to dust. The health of the patriots, their lives, the afterlife are under threat. Patriots, like Gogol's seminarian Khoma Brut, faced darkness face to face. Saving themselves and the country from destruction, they shout out spells. The famous "Putin - bring in the troops!" - This is an analogue of the Orthodox "Lord, have mercy!". And the slogan “If you don’t like it, leave the country!” - should be considered a copy of "Get out, Satan!".

In the studio, there are up to 10 patriots for one sorcerer. It speaks of power and strength. The logic is as follows: the economic crisis, despite the ardent prayers of the patriarch, is growing. This means that the corruption is holding on and you need to pronounce spells louder.

Separately, mention should be made of dissatisfaction with liberals who criticize Russia from abroad. Obviously, it's about damage again. A frequent remark addressed to them, “I left Russia - keep quiet about Russia,” means a spell: “May your tongue dry up!” With this spell, the patriots protect the country from external threats.

However, judging by the way liberals are squeezed out of the country, there is a belief that they are strong while they sit in the kitchens in Moscow. If the kitchen is not Moscow, their spells are not so terrible. It is impossible not to note the humanity of this faith.
