Protest processions fit perfectly into the context of the day set by the "culture." The fight against the opposition was carried out by the overlap of life in the center of Moscow. In the morning in the area of Pushkinskaya Square, the number of “astronauts” in threatening helmets has many times exceeded the number of timid passers -by. Allusias on the themes of the film “1984” (there is also the darkness of the defenders of the people in helmets) was harmoniously complemented by crowds of people pushed from the boulevards to the Bronny in search of saving passing yards. Leaving the entrance is already closer in the evening, immediately came across a flock of young men in search of the path.
I tried to talk with the heirs of Lenin -Navalny. I was surprised: they did not hear anything about Bolotnaya.
The young men simply re -open an unfair world and try to change it, as they can.
In the courtyard, excited neighbors shared their impressions in a whisper. I ask why in a whisper. There is no answer. Some scold power, others - troublemakers. The second more. There were no Internet for several hours, there is almost no connection either, continuous inconvenience of these protests. Grandma from the second entrance, which the riot police literally carried out from Tversky Boulevard, is warmly discussed. She had been sitting on her beloved bench for the past ninety years for the last ninety years and could not understand what exactly happened today. With my thoughts about my grandmother I go to Nikitskaya, but it is still impossible there. I froze on the sidewalk, I study the running line on the facade of Tass. In the line, the violent statistics of Russian successes are crowned with a statement by Maria Zakharova: “The new US sanctions against Russia are proved by the fabrication of the Skripals case.” While trying to catch the mysterious connection available to Zakharova, but inaccessible to me, riot police painted: "What are you doing here?" - "I stand." - "You can't stand."
I return home, plunged into "1984". The main element of the decor of the film is giant monitors, in houses and on the streets. Orwell calls them telekran. They carry out propaganda and surveillance simultaneously. Like our facade of Tass, cast iron smelting and became interspersed with political maximum. I think about the eternal: information in the format of the slogan is the main food of the swallowers of the slogans. We have long been talking to Orwell, but when he is simultaneously in the cinema, on the TV and on the Web - this is too much for one day.
The telekran and our, today, is one task - to sow hatred on an industrial scale. The motives of the previous protest action were the creators of the meanings explained the electorate intelligibly: the organizers planned the assault on the city hall and the Moscow City Work Committee. The psychiatric slope of the version did not cancel its relevance to the authorities. By the time of the second promotion of the "organizers" were packaged in Kutuzki, because they did without versions at all. However, one explanation in our “Ministry of Truth” was still found. The Navalny Foundation began to launder 1 billion rubles, and covered this vileness with distracting protests. Many are surprised - why is the seething of recent times called "riots"? Orwall gives an accurate answer: to tell the truth in the time of universal lies is extremism.
Hatred should turn into a frenzy. Give yourself the work to listen to longer not only stars of the first magnitude, but also Mikheev and Kulikov, and you will understand what it is about. The frenzy cannot last long. It should be alternated with praise to any actions of power. I did not even suspect that Solovyov’s body accumulated such a supply of tenderness. He so piercingly sang hymns to the security forces of all stripes that a tear of tenderness broke through.
The all -seeing TV noted another joy of Russians - except for the Russian Guard, riot police and police officers. The crown of creativity sounded any information about the unprecedented successes of the barbecue festival in Gorky Park.
By the evening of the leading news issues, it was already bursting with pride for barbecue and conscious citizens. “Conscious” counted more than 300,000 thousand - in contrast to a handful of marginals in the amount of 1,500.
With restrained enthusiasm, the presenters noted the successes of conveyor justice: 1000 of them have already been detained.
Comparing the anti -utopia “1984” with our reality, I found one significant difference: in Russia, unlike Oceania, they do not fight orgasm.
A long day was approaching sunset. Tomorrow morning, life will enter the usual track. Malysheva will begin to fight the smell from his mouth. You bring the apparatus to the lips, and the level of stench is immediately determined. The guests of the studio are tall, three out of four units, but Elena Vasilievna herself is pure as a baby. The great power will have another reason for pride.
