When the news of the death of D.A.

Dugina-Platonova, from a bomb planted by foreign intelligence services, political emigrants had an excellent opportunity to remain silent (bombing is generally a dark matter), which they did not want to use.

Their cheerful joy at the death of a 29-year-old girl was so great, as if they specifically set out to arouse extreme disgust for themselves.

And probably the most disgusting thing here was I.V.

Ponomarev.

He announced that Dugin had been killed by partisans from the "National Republican Army" led and directed by him from Kyiv.

Here he imitated the leaders of free Ichkeria, who attributed to themselves all the terrorist attacks and even just accidents that took place in Russia.

Distinguished by this, for example, Shamil Basayev, who later ended badly.

But Robin Hood Basaev was a monster of nature, while Ilyusha Ponomarev until recently enjoyed a reputation not as a monster, but as just a rare swindler, ready to sell his own father (or better yet, resell) at a reasonable price.

He was in the leadership of the Left Front, collaborated with the Communist Party of the Russian Federation, as well as with M.B.

Khodorkovsky, then joined the "Fair Russia" S.M.

Mironov, attended meetings of the Valdai Forum, where in 2013 he asked V.V.

Putin to support him in the election of the Novosibirsk mayor.

A.A.

Navalny, on the other hand, called Ilyusha a “roguish guy” and pointed out that “the best reward for him is to drive him away with kicks.”

In what Zyuganov and Khodorkovsky also completely agreed with Navalny.

Such a stormy and versatile career was reminiscent of the old anecdote about Vasily Ivanovich, who said: “It’s dark, like a Negro’s stomach!”, to which Petka flatteringly remarked to him: “You know everything, Vasily Ivanovich, you’ve been everywhere ".

Obviously, I.V.

Ponomarev took as a model Pope Alexander VI, who “in his whole life did nothing but lie and deceive;

his mind was constantly occupied with finding new ways and cases of deceit, and meanwhile there was no person in the world who could better convince others of the truth of what he considered beneficial for himself to undertake.

Knowing well the human heart, he had no doubt that there would always be people

But there was a hole in Ilyusha, and in 2014 his educational activities in Skolkovo attracted the attention of the prosecutor's office, after which he considered it good to flee to America.

It is a common thing, we will find many examples of this in recent history, but he failed to catch on in the United States, and two years later he moved to Ukraine.

An idealistic impulse - like that of Byron, who set off to liberate Greece - is hardly suitable for explanation, rather there was nowhere to go but to Kyiv.

But in Ukraine it turned out to be impossible to continue the former, non-life-threatening prochindiada.

The game went on differently, and Ponomarev himself went not under the thieves, but under the terrorist article, declaring himself the leader of a secret Russian organization fighting the “V.V.

Putin" through sabotage and attentats.

Such a change could either be due to the fact that he was damaged in his mind - although he does not seem to talk about his secret terrorist activities with his usual mocking smirk - or that he was made an offer that he could not refuse, and strictly ordered don't shirk.

More likely the latter.

He understands that it will end badly, but there is nowhere to go.

The fight for freedom is what it is.

The fate of Ponomarev himself is even of little interest, but it allows us to make some predictions about how emigration will be disposed of at the present time.

When, on the one hand, there were many times more emigrants, on the other hand, the former vegetarianism, in which everyone managed to somehow settle down, comes to an end.

War, crisis and, as a result, general lack of money.

The best option is when the progressive public receives a signal “live as you like, we didn’t invite you here.”

In fact, they called, but there is no need to argue - it’s more expensive for yourself.

That is Constantinople in the 1920s.

Who is on the panel, who is on the cockroach race, who is a laborer.

The worst option is cooperation with various secret gentlemen.

Worse, because more dangerous.

Gentlemen understand the hopelessness of the position of various Ponomarevs - Gelmans and use them as a disposable consumable.

The opposition gives birth to new ones.

The extreme cheapening of political infantry is a very unpleasant thing for the infantry, but against the background of how Zelensky and his allies treat their mere infantry, not political, it is difficult to count on anything else.

So it's safer to wash the toilets.
