REVOLUTION IN BELARUS

Whose? In whose interests it is? What for?




Three months of unceasing crowded demonstrations...
What for?
After all it is saying that revolutions, as a rule, entail degradation in the life of the majority of the population...
However, later on begins a stabilization, after which the quality of life changes...
Whose revolution is this? Who is opposed to the existing order?
They say that those who oppose the government are in the minority, why reckon with them?
Several hundred thousand demonstrating in one capital, is that a lot or a little?
If we take into account that half of the 2 million Minsk residents are active, and if to a quarter of a million of those who take to the streets, we add at least the same number of sympathizers who, for various reasons, remain at home, we will see that a governance which wants to be authority is necessary to take them into account!
However, it is surprising that there are so many people who want change. After all, the most offended and on the verge of genocide stratum of people in our state are creative people from different areas of culture. But if we bring them (talented artists, writers, poets, musicians, inventors, etc.) together, we’ll hardly recruit 10 thousand people. Although they are the instigators and initiators of change and are in the forefront, to them are listened and followed by the most creative, proactive and vibrant part of society.
But what is the second, conservative, part of the people who do not want changes?
History has developed in such a way that in the post-Soviet part of the former USSR, in Belarus, thanks to ideology, this namely layer of the proletariat, which is opposite to high culture and devoid of it, has swim out to the surface. Namely from his environment that leadership was formed.
The government deprived of culture which came out from its environment, by its own image and likeness formed the entire structure of the state.
Life has developed in such way that this rigid structure does not allow any competition.
By this anything more perfect, intelligent, talented and fair has no chance.
Their people in power, friends and relatives will not allow anyone get in the leadership.
It would seem that the current situation is beneficial to the uncultured majority; otherwise they would never get into the ruling circles.
But now the masses of the people are beginning to understand that the state should not be managed by people like themselves, but by the most intelligent, talented and honest...
And for this there must be a competitive and fair selection of the best of the best...
And even if someone wanted to keep the existing situation, it is already impossible!
The problem cannot be solved by violence.
It's time for reforms!
And the sooner all parties which interested in this conflict will understand this and begin negotiations, the better for everyone.
And for our neighbors too!
