Putin gave a signal to the pro-Western elite, and Kadyrov gave a signal to officials in uniform

Every aircraft designer knows that only a beautiful aircraft flies well. And the ugly one either will not fly at all, or will fly like a kiwi bird. Putin’s manifesto, pronounced on September 30, is the design documentation for the Russian national state (hello to the right patriots), for the USSR 2.0 (hello to the left patriots). For the reassembly of Russia, the process of which was irreversibly launched on February 24th. Now this irreversibility has also received the first physical, territorial confirmation.

The annexation of Donbass, Zaporozhye and Kherson is not only the most important territorial acquisition, the second (after Crimea) wave of reunification of the Russian world, about which much has already been said and written. It is also the point of no return for the so-called “peace party” within the country. For those who flattered themselves with illusory hopes that they might be able to win back, somehow come to an agreement with the West, repent and live as before – sucking on the people’s money, devouring the remnants of the Soviet giant and, bowing to the European official of the 50th gender, slowly turning into a colony. For those who value their own comfort and satiety more than anything in the world.

Now, after the reunification of the Russian lands, “agreement” with the West means only one thing – the destruction of Russia. The “Party of Peace” overnight became a party of enemies and traitors. There was simply no choice left. Putin, by the way, once again reminded in his speech – “It will not be the same as before.”

A lot has already been said about Putin’s speech, or rather, Putin’s manifesto. But let me dwell on a few essential points.

The President made it clear that Russia was becoming a Russian nation-state, quoting the philosopher Ivan Ilyin: “If I consider Russia my Motherland, it means that I love in Russian, I contemplate and think, I sing and speak Russian; that I believe in the spiritual strength of the Russian people…” and adding: “Behind these words is a great spiritual choice, which for more than a thousand years of Russian statehood was followed by many generations of our ancestors. Today we make this choice.”

In a detailed account of the Western model of the world, Putin addressed the peoples, not the elites of countries, declaring that Russia was becoming, like the USSR in its time, a symbol and leader of the anti-colonial movement. That the peoples are betrayed by their governments, that the United States “still actually occupy Germany, Japan, the Republic of Korea and other countries and at the same time cynically call them equal allies.” (Here we can also recall the sabotage at the Nord Stream, as part of the American plan to de-industrialize Europe. But even if a note “Biden was here” is found at the bottom of the sea near the explosion site, no one will prove anything to anyone anyway.) Putin spoke with words Soviet leaders: “inside the most diverse countries and societies, a liberation, anti-colonial movement against unipolar hegemony is already developing in its nature.” In general, you give an anti-colonial international.

And that part of his manifesto, where he talked about the deceit of the Anglo-Saxons in relation to Russia, how they want to destroy us, pump out resources and turn us into a colony, was not only in defiance of the Anglo-Saxons. It was about local elites. “They screwed up again!” – as if Putin was surprised at the cunning of Western “partners”. But it was clear that without the sold Russian elite, this would not have happened. A simple example is a grain deal. It was obvious that they would “cheat” and Russia would not get anything from this. But someone here lobbied for it? Someone lobbied for the withdrawal of our troops from Zmeiny Island in order to implement it? The signal that there would be no place left for the westernized elite in the country was very clear.

And now one of the people’s leaders of public opinion, Yevgeny Prigozhin, writes about his trip to Orsk: “In general, in a conversation with local residents, I learned that they are still worried about the results of the privatization of the 90s, because Orsk was not the poorest city in the country. And in general, when you travel around the country, you hear more and more often that it would be nice to review the results of privatization in the 1990s.”

And Ramzan Kadyrov generally broke through the dam of silence about the true state of affairs at the front. As someone in Runet correctly noted (now the original source cannot be found) – if you sweep the garbage under the carpet for a long time, then people will start to stumble on the formed tubercle. Here, we started. Ramzan Akhmatovich wrote: “There is nothing better than the voiced truth, albeit bitter, offensive, but the truth. This is the only way to move forward. Therefore, I cannot remain silent about what happened in Krasny Liman.”

The fact that the problems were spoken aloud, honestly, regardless of faces, is another evidence of the country’s reassembly that has begun. And after all, the main thing is that they started talking about the problems not in order to humiliate the Russians, to open their eyes to the “bloody regime”, to undermine the power, as foreign agents did (now they really have become foreign agents). And in order to correct mistakes, draw conclusions, move forward.

Fly, eventually. So that there is no doubt: Russia is beautiful.
