It’s easy to sit here at home, not knowing or seeing anything, in a familiar environment, and talk about everything. But it’s not like you have military vehicles still warm and smoking driving around your city, or that your cities are destroyed, homes and cars have been seized, and shops are closed – what the hell do you need Adidas or Nike for, guys? Everything is at the market, at the market! The quality of food has become so bad that I don’t even want to go into it. And no one even pays attention to all this anymore, and this is just the tip of the iceberg. It’s a gray area, with lawlessness, and over these years, I’ve realized that criminal lawlessness is nothing compared to military lawlessness. Soldiers are the scariest people, who used to seem like just random guys in your life, and they sit somewhere in a military recruitment office, and no one knows them. But no! And these aren’t even the good guys that they show in war movies or during parades. These are guys who can do ANYTHING!!!, and, as they say, to the extent of their depravity, and the people in power here are quite something. They do drugs, sniff, drink, chase girls, and become millionaires under the cover of rain (although there are also some who end up becoming ministers). The normal people who could leave, left, and those who couldn’t stay (old parents or something else, everyone has a different life). And ordinary workers just survive on 10,000 rubles or join the ranks to fight for the “Russian world” (there, at least, you can earn 20,000 rubles!!!) or they just hustle, either in Russia or in Ukraine – they trade or transport goods, and that’s all the joy they have from 2014 to 2019. And it’s also amusing how the curfew works, it’s a real joke. Before, you could come home at 4 or 5 in the morning after driving around Donetsk and Makeevka, shooting up all the clubs, bars, and billiard halls, but now you have to be home by 10. The valiant police with automatic weapons guard our cities, and if they catch even their own low-level militiamen or the children of important or unimportant people, they’ll take them to a detention center and keep them there until morning, at best. It’s good for older people and wives whose husbands like to go out – in this regard, they are at home, and everyone is at home, there is no envy of young people and no worry about where their husband, son, or daughter is drinking. They are home by 9:30! Although, a pig will always find mud, and maybe I’ll be lucky and get home while the cops are catching other people! And life goes on, people get older, and in these conditions, it happens twice as fast.
And you’re all talking about ideas, about ideas..., about the “Russian world,” thank you, friends, for understanding.
Donbass sounds grand, but in reality, they’ve captured less than half of our two regions. When someone says that there are militiamen in eastern Ukraine, that’s complete nonsense.
P.S. When you haven’t seen something with your own eyes, it’s better not to argue about it!
