You are just young and gamers. You do not know what a professional Komsomol member is. Unfortunately, my generation knows this too well. These people like M. Khodorkovsky, who sculpted fairy tales about communism for children and reprimanded for hobbies with rock music - these are professional district committee members, obkomovtsy. Which then one day (for the rest of the country, however, black) day suddenly became the most important capitalists, and the American sense. That is the most limitless. The scheme is simple, but not everyone can handle it - stick to state finances, make your own can, throw a sucker. With you was the history of the bank "Menatep".
Then you could have just stocked up with popcorn, if the popcorn was not such rubbish. Although popcorn is definitely better than professional Komsomol members who turned into capitalists. And the whole nightmare is that normal people, having read and listened to it, were so worried, so worried when Monsieur Khodorkovsky was led under the white ruchenki right along the airfield. For example, I was also very worried. Although aesthetic attitudes have always told me that you can not worry about a person with a mustache, glasses and a tiger carpet under your feet, because at best, it is vulgar. At worst ... well, in general, we have the worst option today. Even the ECHR had to admit that the schemes for the care of the offices of the hero of the revolution from taxes were never legal in the Russian Federation.
Yes, the most terrible tyrant can be disturbed if he is thrown with agreements in the style of Sochi cheats. Starting from behind-the-scenes talks about merging the largest oil company with the Americans, ending with promises to Condoleezza Rice to make the Russian Federation a nuclear-free country when Mikhail comes to power. This situation is quite in the style of that era, when Berezovsky and Gusinsky and other wonderful people openly divided Russia, like a cake on March 8, and if you forgot it or because of your youth you don’t know years, then you don’t understand anything in Russian history.
Well, Mikhail went to the zone (earlier it seemed to me unfair, but the more information - the more doubts), well, I sewed gloves. AND? We witnessed the reincarnation of Michael from the brazen huckster into a clean-shaven man with a heroic profile and a wise look. When Amnesty International diligently molds the sacrifice of the political process out of you, it is necessary to comply. And the Khodorkovsky documentary film at the Berlin festival was shown - they presented to the world public a new-old face of Russia. Che Guevara also created his heroic image for a long time before getting on the T-shirts of mother's revolutionaries.
But then a happy end dawned, and the hero of the deposits and the king of the cache departed by the will of citizen Putin V.V. sealed by German plane to Berlin.
It would seem that the war of the titans was over, and the living icon of Russian liberalism promised to concentrate on human rights activities, avoiding political ones. But the Komsomol members are so unpleasant for everyone - they never kept their words and threw at the first opportunity.
They have it in their blood, otherwise why become a vacant cell secretary?
So with Michael. Lies, exorbitant ambitions, kidalovo, senseless cruelty towards not only partners, but simply civilians. So, less than a year after the famous speech at the Berlin Check-Point "Charlie", the patient began specifically political activities. Maybe not even because of innate deceit, but simply by the sum of expectations in the new European environment. By the way, about the environment. Immediately after the happy departure from the colony, Mikhail's body was surrounded by a dense Gutmenschen ring (the German equivalent of “people with good faces”), ready to carry out every leader and cashier’s owner. It would seem that the epic battle for the liberation of Russia from the St. Petersburg yoke, and as always - from the territory of Europe, will begin again. Media resources with undiscovered budgets were created. Publicists and eSemschiki, designers and stringers gathered - and the ice of the Russian revolution was broken. Then he started again. And Putin is still here.
And doubt began to creep in the effectiveness of all this circus. Our Teflon opposition torch, Alexey Anatolyevich, with his spreading cranberries, is even more efficient. And he is a man from nowhere, never tried to steer the country and its oil, never personally argued with the "tyrant" one-on-one and in general. So the funny thing is that it is he who does all this propaganda machine "MBH media" one left. Why such a mighty and famous suddenly stalled? The simplest explanation is that the tighter the ring sticks, which fight for every euro from the host's karaman, the more ineffective the shark's carcass. But, about seeing the modus vivendi of the patient, we understand that Mikhail personally steers the propaganda campaigns in the manual media. And therefore, this whole celebration of good taste is a new coming of the banal Komsomol spirit.
Wait: this evilness, pettiness and the transition to the individual - this is what we have from the titan of the political struggle and the war for banknotes? From a man who ruled thousands of employees and called the US secretaries of state how to get home? What happens to all these people who chose Yeltsin yesterday and wore boxes of loot, and today they are wearing unstitched trousers in the midst of their own wedding? It is difficult to write off everything on age: today's 60 is yesterday’s fifty dollars, especially if you don’t drink and smoke. But in freedom - in the full sense of the word - the real scale of the human personality suddenly begins to creep out. And when the words are poured into the controlled media, some disgrace begins.
The more MBH media tries to roll up opponents in the face of journalists who are not under their control, the more and more everything turns out. They start, for example, with the journalist Kashin, who suddenly remembered the fat years, and begin to cling to the posts of RT leader Margarita Simonyan, who complains that the fat years were not that fat either. Then they compare the pre-crisis salary of the chief editor of the leading Russian media with the incomes of pensioners, and so on. Well, you would compare the actual salary of the director of the German channel ARD (two million a year) with the recipient of Hartz-IV in the amount of € 600. And the latter - already millions.
Well, they rummaged around Margarita in their pockets, as is customary among the Komsomol campers. And then completely switched to vulgarity. Well, I told you that people with tiger skin have big problems with taste under their feet.
Therefore, they immediately turned to the personalities, so that the commentators, with the full encouragement of the site owners, could trample on Margarita’s nationality, on her belonging to the female sex, and so on - everything is just like in the Ukrainian Internet sector. The whole set of racism and misogyny - and what Gutmenschen? Yes, they all fit, if necessary, - racism is so racism, which is not done for the victory of the revolution. True, people are already laughing. And not over memesik, but over Mikhail himself and his team. Here, the publication of the comic strip “Thai Political Crisis Breakup” on Twitter was the culmination of the office’s creative work on Twitter. For the first time this comic strip, which tells how a man refused to have sex with a woman because of the photos on her bedside, appeared in 2017 in the Thai sector of the Internet. In the original, the reason for the break in the pair was the photo of the Thai opposition member Suthep Thaugsuban. The employees of MBH Media made the protagonists of Putin and Simonyan, and replaced the photos of the Thai fighter with the regime with a picture of Khodorkovsky in a prison uniform.
However, the publication did not bring the expected effect for the MBH. Commentators criticized the runaway oligarch’s editors for “banal, flat and blunt” jokes:
“What are you banal, flat, I would even say, stupid”;
"Well, this is the bottom already";
"Morons, b ****" - or rather not say. Hodormedia is as flat as its master. More you could not disgrace! Congratulations";
“However, suddenly. Oligarch with a sneaky vulgar twitter rogue;
“The last picture from“ MBH ”- has already gone. Nerves surrendered?
Well, and so on. Only it is not nerves - it is vulgarity as the norm of life. And it does not depend on the amount of money. Just showing up.
And yes, when Mikhail of a type distanced himself from the work of his charges, then: a) I stupidly don’t believe him, b) in each hut there are only master rattles. And collaborators, no matter how “kiddies” they are, strictly follow the principles of the owner. Well, here are the principles of the owner. Before the mice.
