Correction Appended
It began inauspiciously. On a frozen afternoon in late November, as Moscow was draped with blocklong plastic billboards, banners and flags, each proclaiming a variation on a single theme — “POBEDA PUTINA — POBEDA ROSSII!” (“A Victory for Putin Is a Victory for Russia”) — a few thousand Russians converged on the city center for a rare act of political theater. It seemed, at first, like a tableau from the last days of the U.S.S.R., those heady months when glasnost swelled the streets with protesters. A handful of dissidents stood on a flatbed truck; a jumble of loudspeakers were stacked below; the crew of foreign reporters vastly outnumbered the local press; and across the way, the secret policemen with their unseen amplifiers were drowning the protest in canned laughter and Soviet waltzes.

So it is Moscow’s birthday, supposedly 860 years old. First of all, Moscow is younger than she pretends to be. Of course, it is vanity that pushes this huge middle-aged “tiotka” (hag) to lie about her age — she wants to be admitted to the respected high-class club of ancient cities. To be in one crowd with such old gentlemen as Signor Rome, Sir London and Monsieur Paris, and such old ladies as Madame Athens.
In reality Moscow was born not in 1147, but much later, in 1382, when Dmitry Donskoi built the Kremlin fortress after his victory over Khan Mamai on Kulikov Field. So, Moscow is faking her years, pretending to be older because she suffers from an inferiority complex.

A few figures for the beginning. Now in Strasbourg European human rights court there are 42 claims of members of the National-Bolshevik Party against Russia, against the repressive and unfair decisions, taken by Russian courts.
Now 26 members of the National-Bolshevik Party are in prisons. Altogether 110 members of the NBP have passed through prisons since 1999. I draw your attention to the fact, that arrests and repressive court decisions started in 1999.

It’s nothing new to say that the court system acts in favor of the authorities, whether it is dealing with so-called tax violations allegedly committed by Yukos management or the latest openly unconstitutional presidential initiative to take away the right of the population to elect the heads of regions. In both cases, the Kremlin has mixed rational arguments with humbug, in effect tossing the Constitution out the window.

Russian lefts grow swiftly younger. Rallying students succeed grandmothers. They are struggling against Putin the “dictator”, unmasking Zuganov the “revisionist” and are waiting for the anticapitalist revolution any day. In order to brighten up the process of waiting they bombard elder politicians with ketchup and mayonnaise.
On the 23d of February Russia’s left radicals are going to carry out the action “Russia without Putin”. Evidently they will not manage to organize a mass rally, their most significant actions have gathered only about 2000 participants so far. Under Yeltsin mass left radical open-airs mainly attracted grandmothers with saucepans. Now - students.

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! (more…)

Hitler stole a landmine and Coca-Cola makes you sterile. Anna Badkhen spends time among the young in Volgograd.

The revolutionaries are sitting and standing around the table in a small, crowded kitchen. One has put his elbows on the kitchen table and speaks with authority. Another listens intently, nodding whenever his comrade utters words like “Molotov cocktail,” “bourgeoisie” or “the working class.” Yet another sits cross-legged on a small bench and absentmindedly bites his nails.
The revolutionaries call themselves Young Beria Followers, after Lavrenty Beria, the infamous chief of Josef Stalin’s secret police. The oldest of the revolutionaries is 17. The youngest is 9. (more…)
