The farce under the high-sounding title “Elections of the president of the Russian Federation” has ended. It has ended by a fire. I will recall to those who have forgotten it, that it is in these very royal stables, i.e. in Manege, some months ago another farce was happening - under the pathetic title “Honest elections”, when the nazbols spilled mayonnaise on the maniac Veshnyakov. The business started with mayonnaise was completed by fire. Glory to fire!
The National-bolsheviks were, in essence, the only ones who spoke up against the elections directly and without reservations. The communists and the liberals, considering themselves great wise men, manipulated the boycott idea, but still didn’t risk to call loudly and clearly Russia’s citizens not to participate in the elections. They didn’t risk, if one is not to count some autonomous individuals, to join the movement “Russia without Putin”. For now NBP pulls this movement on itself, in political solitude.
We have to register “Russia without Putin”, to register it in Moscow and in the regions. The refusal of registration will mean that Russia’s present form of governing does not differ in anything from the Turkmenian one - there the infallibility of the Turkmenbashi has been fixed by a special clause in the country’s constitution. A refusal will signify a complete and final (on the present turn of history) victory of autocracy in Russia. Will the gentlemen functionaries risk admitting this openly, to the whole world? After all, in the program “Freedom of speech” by the lips of the general secretary of the “Unicorns” Bogomolov they told us that they build, you see, a postindustrial society. Obviously, they are not able to build anything apart from Gogol’s Russia of “the dead souls”.
“Russia without Putin” can become a broad opposition front or the sprout of such a front, the first step to it. The negativity of the slogan is not a minus for a broad coalition, in contrary - this is a plus. A hundred years back the slogans “Down with the czar!”, “Down with autocracy!” rallied the radical and the liberal opposition.
Each nazbols has to clearly understand and to know how to interpret to others that today a struggle for freedom is a struggle for Russia as well. Yes, Russia did vigorous spurts in absence of political freedoms (Peter I, Stalin), but these were periods of an extremely high social mobility. Human energy was activated, it was put to use. Will and talent was encouraged in man, talents were specifically sought across the immense Russia, because the Caesars constantly necessitated fresh vigorous people for the solving of their grandiose tasks, and not obedient, sleepy functionaries. Corruption, use of family relations for the carrier were severely punished. It is not Peter’s I or Stalin’s autocracy by itself that reinforced and elevated the country, but the policy of attracting talents and pushing aside dullards. It is precisely autocracy that played later a negative role, since the death of a single man - the imperator, the leader - immediately buried the right personnel policy as well. All of this has to be explained to people. Freedom will break or at least shatter the present “stable stability” (a slip of the tongue of one of the participants in the very same “Freedom of speech”), which shuts up Russia, prevents it from breathing, from developing. “The stable stability” is a paradise for the dead. By fighting for freedom, we fight for the rights of the living. Of all the living in Russia, not only the national-bolsheviks.
