Pros from crosses. Is there any reasons not to lose heart in 2022

- How many pluses, how many pluses!

- These are crosses, a boob, we are in the cemetery.

A joke, of course, with a beard, like Kadyrov’s, but in the subject. When they ask me to squeeze out a drop of optimism about Russia of the future, I grimace. It is good to live with religious faith: even in the kingdom of God, even in communism. And it’s bad to look at the world from a well -washed window, behind which neither communism nor marching saints are observed.

There was no faith a year ago, on January 23, 2021, when I was with a temperature for 38 (thanks to the “satellite” for this) walked along Tverskaya. I saw new young faces, but I understood: after this rally there will be no more. Games in souvenir democracy ended: not hundreds of thousands, but only dozens went to the streets. Beautiful - but dozens.

Unfortunately, only protest is updated, and every criminal case - that “swamp”, that “Moscow”, that “palace” - becomes a shock for a new generation. And power is still the same, rooted in twenty years. And she remembers well how to deal with citizens. All technologies have been worked out, the majors managed to become generals.

These same twenty years were not in vain.

Where are the money subscribers going

Most Republic materials are available by paid subscription. We believe that this is a good way to finance media. After all, as you know, if you have not paid for reading it, then someone else paid for you to read it. In our case, everything is honest: from your money, salaries and fees are paid to journalists, and they write about important and interesting topics for you.

The key feature of our subscription: your money is distributed between Republic magazines depending on how you read it. If you read the materials of one magazine, then your money will go only to him, while others will not go. That is, you finance only what you are interested in.

Republic uses the Redefine.media subscription. For design, we will redirect you to the Redefine.media website, where you will need to register and pay for the subscription. Authorization on the Redefine.Media website will allow you to read Republic materials from the same device.

A year subscription is more profitable than a month. And if you want to unsubscribe, this can always be done in your personal account.
