... And now about Prigozhin's lecture in prison, where he charismatically recruits volunteers.

Good lecture, interesting.

The question is not whether it is necessary.

Everything is necessary that will bring benefit.

The question, for example, is why the video was leaked?

Like some act of intimidation?

Well, so be it.

In the first series, they were scared by the Chechens, and they did an excellent job with the role and with all the tasks.

Now here is the second series.

It's like the Chechens, only worse.

However, there may also be Chechens.

If someone like Raduev were alive, he would lead some wildest company.

By the way, no one left more or less acceptable from that war?

Now other questions are brewing.

What will happen in the next series?

It is possible to give Russian citizenship in a simplified form to those who wish to serve.

From any countries of the former USSR.

It'll come in handy too.

Everything, I repeat, that's the point - it's good.

Minus only one.

The work of political officers in the army for 30 years was a failure, and no one hinted that it had to be urgently reanimated right from 2014.

It is periodically reported from different places that the military, already in the NVO zone, ask the most banal questions from the category: who are they - these Ukrainians?

Why are they also Russian?

And who are we?

And who is Shukhevych?

And who is Bogdan Khmelnitsky?

Many military people simply do not know this.

And, not knowing this, they ponder: do they need to fight?

And due to some shortage of motivated personnel in the NVO zone, Prigogine has to speak.

Exactly the same work at school, institute, and most importantly - in mass culture, as a whole, was also a failure in the past decades.

If Radio PMCs had been working for us all these years with the right songs and the right presenters, the ground would also have been at least partially prepared.

And if instead of “House-2” they had played a show about militias for the same number of years, in our vast country there would have been no end to volunteers.

In a country with tens of millions of men.

With hundreds of thousands of adrenaline addicts who either drive 500 km / h on motorcycles or jump headfirst from rooftops.

But we didn’t have such a radio, nor such a show, and it’s not even expected.

We gave the youth to Nastya Ivleeva and Dudya * and now we are sitting puzzled.

Lectures in prisons are in the column "Political education and education of patriotism."

As a private initiative of Prigozhin, it is beyond praise.

As a diagnosis of the state of society, it is significant.

Some kind of Roman Empire from the time of decline.

Soon, rich citizens will begin to collect money for barbarians who approached the fortress walls so that they pass by.

And they will take the money and will not pass.

See the history of the Roman Empire.

They say, among others, our ancestors ceased to exist.

The ancestors were good.
