We are preparing a small brief summary of the internal affairs of the greatest empire in the world, where the most dangerous crime is to make a drawing about the world and be an honest journalist.
The money collected for the treatment of children, repair of dams, and quality education is spent on much more important things, for example, the construction of new prisons for political prisoners.
Ah, Russia, where political repression is becoming the new national sport. Here is a summary of the latest “achievements”:
“Repressive marathon” – In Russia, repression has reached new heights. If these were the Olympic Games, Russia would definitely take gold in the discipline “How to destroy civil society as quickly as possible.”
“Theater of the Absurd” – Independent journalists and activists are being forced into exile or thrown behind bars¹. Apparently, the new trend is “make your country clean,” but only from dissent.
“Legislative Kaleidoscope” – Laws on “foreign agents” and “undesirable organizations” are expanding so quickly that even the creators cannot keep up with the changes. Soon, even the use of the word “freedom” may require special permission. The security forces will have to run with all their might just to stay in place when applying the new repressive laws.
“Economy or repression?”While the country is drowning in economic and social problems, budget funds are spent on suppressing freedom of speech¹. Well, who would have thought that instead of repairing roads and schools, the money would be used to purchase handcuffs and security cameras?
And so, in a country where the word “opposition” becomes almost a curse, life goes on. Don’t switch. The next episodes promise to have even more “exciting” events, restrictions, repressions, imprisonments, and murders of oppositionists!
