TV is excited by the Chinese like-mindedness and wants the same in Russia

Sergey Mitrofanov

The end of the week was marked by several "terrible" stories. Chief among them is the relapse of Chinese like-mindedness, reflected in Vesti Nedeli with Dmitry Kiselev. There, in China, the Sixth Plenary Session of the CPC has just passed, which approved a resolution according to which Xi Jinping will henceforth be called the "Pilot of the Chinese Renaissance", approaching in greatness to the Great Mao. And the 20th Congress is approaching.

Let's give TV its due, he did not say anything particularly good or especially bad about it, but was emphatically neutral, as in the "Club of Film Travelers." However, in this neutrality one could still feel some admiration.

The fact is that in Russia they often rave about the Chinese way and about copying it in Russian "reforms". (Or, to put it differently, in the termination of liberal reforms.) And here is such a gift: the triumph of Chinese like-mindedness. In China, as we can see, everyone votes as one. One person, a national leader, is entrusted with the right to announce any political, historical or ideological concept. The others applaud. Everything is buried in red.

At the same time, we still do not understand what is happening there in reality.

Either China continues to develop rapidly despite moderate totalitarianism. Or maybe a slowdown has finally begun, judging by the rather impoverished range of gadgets offered by China. There is still no answer as to whether like-mindedness helps progress. But, one can imagine (and this is the horror) that many people might like such an outcome of the maturity of the authorities. Even the Americans. Terrible (especially for an old-timer who left the Soviet Union), and the red tones in which the Chinese policy is decided. And if all this comes back to Russia?

The political path of Xi Jinping is curious, which is now captured in Chinese museums and which TV told us about.

Once sent by Great Mao to "reeducate through labor", Great Xi Jinping also fostered a political response, which apparently included the seizure of the First Person throne.

In Chinese museums, tourists are shown a cave with poor utensils (similar in its fateful meaning to the hut of Vladimir Ilyich), in which the future Chinese Pilot of the Renaissance had to interrupt. It can be assumed that there, in the cave-hut, he decided that no one else would allow himself to be pushed around. Better he himself will push the destinies of millions, if not billions. What Xi Jinping is going to do now.

From the education of the Chinese like-mindedness TV is smoothly moving to the education of the Russian like-mindedness in the plot "Big Change".

The scene is the Boy Scout camp "Artek", a former pioneer camp of special Soviet pioneers. The competition "Big Change" is held there - the title of the competition demonstrates a transparent reference both to the popular Soviet TV series and to Viktor Tsoi's perestroika song "Our hearts demand changes".

But “changes” are again demanded not by some dissidents and rootless foreign agents, but by special students, winners of patriotic competitions. Their "projects", according to Television, will be awarded with prizes of one million rubles (by the way, more modest figures are articulated in the description of the competition - 150 thousand rubles, but, apparently, the rates have increased). The schoolchildren are delighted, they are fed, watered, danced here and allowed to talk about the fact that they will become new presidents with their own reorganization of Russia. As if our main social problem is to educate in the young generation the skills to use freedom of speech and independent initiative, and not disciplined voters in elections.

Nevertheless, it is noteworthy that all the “pioneers” of “Artek” are dressed in the same model clothes (for alleged variety, decided in several colors, yellow, green, blue and red), the same jackets, the same pants, the same sweatshirts and T-shirts. Hopefully they won't be taken back when the show is over.

But if they do, then a valuable increase is expected for the family budget, almost a whole wardrobe of a young patriot. It is hardly surprising that, dressed in the same free clothes, our schoolchildren are broadcasting the same enthusiastic texts, otherwise they go into the choral enthusiastic chants. And when they grow up, they will obviously become the instigators of glorious changes in the Chinese spirit, if they do not break off in hopes of a career in the emerging political system.

(* I personally saw how the "young leaders" of United Russia broke off in hopes, they were never released from the sandbox.)

Parallels of Jakov Kedmi

Former Israeli special serviceman Yakov Kedmi is almost constantly can be found on Russian TV with the support of the wildest geeks of Russian politics. In this case, he decided to parallel the Polish-Belarusian incident on the border and collisions that were created before World War II.

Dashingly conceived, but it turned out strange for him. Kedmi spoke about the Polish nationalism of the 30s. At one fine moment, like it was 1938, the Polish government decided to revoke citizenship of persons who had been absent from the country for more than 5 years. This hit the Jews who moved to Germany. At the same time, Hitler began to send them to the Polish border, like to their homeland, and it turned out like what is happening on the Polish-Belarusian border.

A terrible parallel to embarrass the European Union, but it should apparently be noted that on the eve of World War II, no one suffered from special liberalism and human rights ANYWHERE.

And if we play on such an association, then Lukashenka will emerge as Hitler, who, in the sense of Hitler, of course, was more responsible for the misfortunes of people than even the “terrible” Polish government.

By the way, exactly the same situation developed in the USSR, which, at the request of Nazi Germany, on the contrary, returned its immigrants to Germany, which then rotted them in the death camps.

Nobody asks Lukashenko to rot refugees passing through his territory in death camps, let alone push them into the terrible nationalist Poland. There are many places in Russia and Belarus, you can at least place the entire Middle East (consider this a joke). But for some reason everyone wants to go to Germany, to their tormentors.
