About the attack on the center of Yeltsin

The nature of attacks on the Yeltsin Center, it seems to me, is. These attacks go from people suffering from an acute form of cognitive dissonance - an internal conflict between the generally accepted moral norms and the practical actions of these people. We are talking about people who seek to receive, so to speak, “competitive advantages” due to specific relations with the authorities. They are in a variety of expressions of love for power, regardless of what kind of power it is, from the calculation in response to get these same advantages.

Cognitive dissonance is not the most comfortable thing, and therefore the phase of removal of cognitive dissonance occurs. In the modern world, this is achieved, in particular, by imposing on all some ideological constructions. In particular, it can be argued that the national spirit of the Russians (in the broad sense) consists in the denial of freedom and in love for slavery, in a trepy before any superiors, etc.

And suddenly these people are faced with a certain institution that claims that freedom is great, and that it has always been characteristic of Russians. That power can be despised and overthrown. And this is also characteristic of Russian. That there are integral rights of people and that the obligation of any power is to protect and ensure these rights. This institution is subject to the current Russian constitution, which refers to these rights. (Over the past year, citizens from the Yeltsin center, including minors (!), Made 150 thousand copies of our Constitution for free.)

The statements of these sufferers from cognitive dissonance, like Mikhalkov and Medinsky, are a direct insult to the Russian national spirit. After all, only free people (peasants!) Could create such a phenomenon as the Cossacks, which, by the way, conquered Siberia. Only free people were able to free Russia from the Polish invasion in the Time of Troubles, when the princes lay under the Poles. Only free people could go under the Tanks of the State Emergency Committee. I could multiply these examples.

I would support Navalny if he had rolled out a civil lawsuit against these dissonants at the beginning of his presidential campaign, for insulting his fellow citizens. Well, the mufti should go through the criminal case for extremism.

There is an obvious struggle between the subspecies of sapiens in Russia - scum against normal people. We did not untie her. But we must fight. I do not want my country to stay in their paws.
