The Russian -speaking Twitter took up arms against Dmitry Glukhovsky. The reason for Hayit was the tweet of the writer, in which he told how to simply emigrate. Some users supported Glukhovsky, but many condemned: they insisted that most Russians did not have the same starting opportunities as Glukhovsky’s, so it is wrong to criticize them. As the conflict develops, the blogger and presenter Michael Naki, who accused the Russians of nagging, idleness and shifting responsibility, launched for the writer, which provoked a conflict with another blogger and politician Maxim Katsa. The "cold" tells the main thing from a toxic discussion and explains what the bus driver from Saratov has to do with it.

On November 22, writer Dmitry Glukhovsky stated on his Twitter that Russian emigrants are obliged to show Europeans and Ukrainians “other Russia” and help those who left the country later. In the refers, he was reminded that people have different starting positions. When asked what to do if a person drives a bus in Saratov, Glukhovsky replied : “1. You teach English 2. You teach a python 3. You go to Germany to work. ”
Most people criticized the writer and noted that to emigrate as easy as it seems to him. The Pavel Osadchuk user noted that for the average level in the IT and getting a work visa, you need to work for two or three years, and to work in Germany-to teach not only English, but also German. Many alterations, jokes and memes on the topic of initial tweet appeared in the reforms and in quotations:
After the tweet was encouraged, Glukhovsky spoke about the difficulties of his youth. According to him, for the first time he emigrated at 17. According to the writer, the first year he did not work and lived with the money that Israel pays to repatriates. Then financial support from the state ended. Parents sent him $ 200 a month, and the writer earned the rest of the money. “It was difficult, of course, dreary, lonely, and very poorly. He ate Falafel twice a week in Pete, it was chic. But nothing, somehow finished off, ” wrote Glukhovsky.
This tweet caused a new wave of indignation and criticism. Users said that Glukhovsky could go abroad, which means that his starting conditions were better than most Russians. People drew attention to the fact that the average salaries in Russia in 1996, when the writer was 17 years old, were less than the amount that his parents sent him.
The story of Glukhovsky about his youth caused a new wave of memes and jokes. The stand-up comedian Viktor Kopanitsa even imposed the text of Twish of Glukhovsky on the Biography of the Biography Bitter Group "Belief".
They didn’t forget about the white coat either.
For the writer, the host and video blogger Michael Naki stood up. He condemned the critics of Glukhovsky: “You have given one of the main Russian writers of the 21st century. Which is under the criminal. Although he could cut the loot with a shovel, he decided that his conscience is more important. ” Naki advised Twitter users not to be outraged by the words and actions of Russian oppositionists.
“Not that Glukhovsky needed my protection. Just like the infantilism of people fucked up. Everything should do everything for them. The Armed Forces of the Armed Forces of Putin to overthrow, Europeans give a residence permit, the opposition of cards in banks to release. Will you do something, dear friends? How did you live up to your age? " - wrote Naki.
In response, they told him that the words of Glukhovsky were "torn from reality." Twitter users noted that Naki himself grew up in a wealthy and privileged family, and his father is a US citizen. The journalist answered criticism with a thread in which he said that in his childhood he had boxes instead of furniture, and while working on the Echo of Moscow radio, he woke up at five in the morning and went to the train through the forest.
Also, the words of Naki did not like the blogger and former municipal deputy Maxim Katsu: he said that Naki criticizes the ordinary people, not the authorities. In response, Michael Naki accused Katz of the fact that people like him, "instead of the fight against Putin, are endlessly scattering shit, if only they could not do the useful with a malicious fuck."
The dispute of Glukhovsky and Naki with Maxim Katsa and other Twitter users also led to a discussion that people have different starting conditions: not everyone can afford emigration and work abroad.
In the spring of 2022, after a full -scale military invasion of Ukraine, tens of thousands of Russians left the country. The second wave of emigration happened in the fall of 2022-after the authorities declared mobilization. People who left the country in September and October last year, fearing a call, left Russia without long -term plans and savings. Many Russians could not adapt in other countries and returned home.
