Get used to thinking: "What will happen to me after Putin?"
In Krasnodar, a solemn institution of the Anti -Liberal Front took place the other day. The event from the very beginning was shrouded in the cover of mysticism.
Anti -liberalists gathered at the Platan Hotel - in the same place, where a few days before them took place the constituent conference of the regional branch of Open Russia.
"Anti -Liberal Front of the Kuban"
And this choice was not accidental, but with the intention of "trample the traces." They still needed to swallow with the tambourine in the hall where the OR was gathered. Apparently, they did not think. We are waiting for the next time.
In this ordinary anti -liberalist gathering, two iconic things surprised me.
Firstly, the name. Liberal is literally a supporter of freedom. All over the world, liberalism is understood the same as the idea of the priority of human rights and its freedoms. To openly call yourself enemies of freedom? Declare a human rights struggle? This is too much for modern Russia. After all, the political elite of the Russian Federation still imitates democracy. Or is the vertical of power already falling, and can I ignore guidelines?
Secondly, the neighborhood of the leaders of some branches of parliamentary parties at this event with obvious political clowns. Do legal politicians have such a strong desire to run ahead of the steam locomotive that they forget about reputation?
Gentlemen and ladies, get used to asking yourself the question: "What will happen to me after Putin?" Just out of a sense of self -preservation. Your time may end suddenly, for example, tomorrow. But the maximum that you, unfortunately, has it - until 2024.
Are you not going to do harakiri after the departure of your permanent leader?
Russia's reversal from freedom to actual dictatorship became possible due to the fact that lustration was not carried out in the country. We will no longer allow ourselves such a mistake. You probably heard about the idea of giving guarantees to the current president in exchange for his departure from his post. Perhaps this reassured you. But guarantees alone mean nothing to everyone else. In addition, he may not agree to leave ahead of schedule, and the proposals of guarantees will not become relevant.
It is even more important that the question of “after Putin” was asked “security forces” - investigators, prosecutors, judges. That is, those who have the opportunity to commit a criminal offense now. For example, it is illegal to initiate a criminal case, to bear an illegal sentence, to send a person under administrative arrest.
You will have to answer for this. This is written in the laws of Russia.
