In "The Myth of the Cave," Plato describes the lives of the people present in the pitch darkness: in the absence of light, they are content only available to them the walls of the shadows, the shadows of the present, full color world. Today the world has changed in the darkness, and the culture of the people more and more like a handful of cave men, looking at reflections of the world in which all sorts of feasts gopota jubilant. Culture is not the place. Power brings, keeps near him organically close to it on Wednesday, deeply anti-cultural, and away from him disdainfully rejects the so-called cultural (non-official status, but in fact). Because these figures - oh, these figures! - Besides that have the audacity to be talented, so still, just that, just climb with my stupid questions: about the independence of the courts and the press, about the fate of orphans, about the theft of income from oil industry. "Well, what is it all about? Well, why do they, eh? ".

What is happening now with the culture, it's not a Jewish-Masonic conspiracy to befuddling and extermination of the Russian people, and the result is deeply pessimistic view, but what's really there, just contempt for the citizens of his country that's the point, is not a direct text, but the hints slipped in speeches by leading politicians.

They reason like this: Stas Mihaylov - which is exactly what our people deserve Neanderthal. Maybe even our people Neanderthal does not deserve this sincere guy with a deep neckline. Maybe our people-to Neanderthal Stasik long time to grow. Because our people do little to deserve ubogonky he is not prepared to anything: neither freedom nor culture, nor to civilized life. Country Tchaikovsky and Tolstoy? There have been times, yes, but where is the people? Kicked, rot, against the wall. It remains one rabble: Drunk yes gray mass of opportunists. And so, they say, that we can squeeze out of this tainted material.

But this, of course, all of the evil one. For example, going back to the books, in this dead scoop Brezhnev times at least 70%of the most visited libraries scoops. Are they all as one, filled with a library card with a revolver at his temple, under the stern eye of gebista?

Obviously, in any nation is a distinct minority, say, 5-10%, which does not do anything: do you have any legislative ban playing any music, except songs Stas Mikhailov "For You", and they, scum, still find Schnittke way to listen to Brahms. And there is a mirror image of those whom you have settled even in the Hermitage, the ban with "nasheyrashey" and a beer in the back. The remaining 80 or 90 percent - yielding, entirely dependent on the circumstances of the mass. Now these facts are not in favor of the masses.here[/FONT].[/URL]
