In the morning I read in German newspapers, as always, with pathos cast: “Who will receive the most prestigious political award in the world? Greta Thunberg, WHO and the leader of the Belarusian opposition Svetlana Tikhanovskaya are possible candidates for the Nobel Peace Prize. " And just finished the reply sentence: “Recipe: you go to the podium, yell angrily at your elders and get a peace prize”, as Telegram finished fortune-telling on the coffee grounds: “The Nobel Peace Prize for 2021 was awarded to the Philippine journalist Maria Ressa and the editor-in-chief of Novaya Gazeta. Dmitry Muratov ".
Well, actually, the wording “you go to the podium, yell angrily at your elders and get a peace prize” turned out to be universal. Although there are details: Maria Ressa, for example, worked as an "investigator" for CNN for 20 years. We are aware of what it is worth and for whom it is now working in the open CNN, having trampled on the remnants of the journalistic profession. It remains to find out who Dmitry Muratov is working for, apparently not living in poverty at all - after all, it does not happen that, while rocking the boat, you do not get your pants wet.
The Norwegian committee in its justification tells about the dead journalists of Novaya Gazeta, and this is also sad and tragic - when your award is justified by other people's deaths, and you just become wider and wider in the frame, and you practically do not fit into the frame, to which the damned mode.
And if even a drop of Christian fear of God remained in you, you would give this award to the relatives of the dead journalists to a penny.
Your idol Gorby at least received a peace prize for a great cause - to destroy such a country, and here - for the banal incitement of one part of the population to another, the Oscars and Nobels are dwindling.
In principle, I believe that from this point of view A.A.
Venediktov is a much better candidate for the Alfred Nobel Peace Prize, dynamite manufacturer.
Chirk - and boom!
We, of course, should be proud that Russia again broke into the Nobel agenda, although we understand that a Russian-speaking person can break into it only if he is a type of oppositionist.
And it cannot be otherwise.
Moreover, it works just fine: if a representative of any country other than America, then necessarily - an oppositionist, working in one way or another for the interests of this very America.
If from America, then no oppositionists - only the President of the United States, and only a democrat, and only did not manage to do anything at all, except to start another war.
And it works like a clock.
And so I want to be proud of our contemporary Dima, if only for the fact that he did not start a single war.
Although he painstakingly folds dry brushwood for the fire.
And also to say thank you that he is among the laureates, and not a frightening humanoid doll - Greta Thunberg, who, like an organ, spits out evil cliches.
And not Madame Tikhanovskaya, about whose activities it is impossible even to remember a meme, let alone her real achievements on the basis of "peace".
And far overboard were the damp dreams of the sofa opposition about the peace prize to Alexei Anatolyevich Navalny - for this all little-known Norwegians from the committee can be forgiven.
It is somehow completely senseless and unpromising to hand over the prize to the used political materials.
It is better to support those who are active, especially in the media sphere.
Because the current wars are waged there - in the media.
And, of course, this war is called "peace."
Bulk in span anyway.
Well, okay, well, okay.
We don't eat popcorn - it's bad.
But you still need to stock up on something for today, because today the opposition couch will rinse Dmitry Muratov.
Don't ask me why - they have their own logic.
So we wish the newly minted Nobel Prize winner peace of strength and confidence.
