One girl from the heart of Russia - Belgorod region wrote a downhill essay at a regional contest that vividly characterizes the results of Russian education and the activity of the litters - the nightingale and not only. Let's analyze these magic lines - they sublimation throughout the post-Soviet era.
"Recently, Western and liberal domestic journalism have written a lot about Russian barbarism against the background of European civilization. But if we compare moral ideals and the real life of peoples, look through the heroic pages of the history of the Russian people, then a completely different picture arises.
For example, in the Russian pagan pantheon there was never a god of war, while among European nations the notion of a warlike deity dominated, the whole epic was built around wars and conquests. "I will reveal to you a terrible secret: the Russian pagan pantheon has never existed. Russian as a phenomenon arose with the advent of the Moscow Kingdom, and it was already Orthodox people.
But the Kiev Slavs are quite right, there was a pantheon of pagan gods and the main god was Perun - the god of war and patron of the prince with his druzhina. The Slavic etymology of the name Perun (praslav. * Perun) is quite obvious to most researchers. It is believed that it comes from the verb * perti, * pьrǫ "to strike, to beat" (cf. Russian, "bolt, pen, beating, bang") and the suffix of the doer -un (compare runner, jumper, etc.) .
Thus, the name of Perun has the meaning of "hitting, hitting, smashing." Beat. Beat ... "The Russian people, after defeating the Gentiles, never tried to forcibly convert them to their faith." The construction of churches and the planting of Russian language and customs have always occurred in the conquered territories.
Not Orthodox people were contemptuously called foreigners (non-humans), and Europeans for ignorance of the great and mighty Russian language were dumb, which was postponed in the language as Germans.
The concept of "Moscow is the third Rome" was first formulated in two epistles of the end of 1523 - the beginning of 1524 by the elder of the Pskov Eleazar monastery, Philotheus.
"Your Christian treasure is not going to happen, according to the great bosom" If you translate into modern language. The Third Rome is the Moscow Kingdom, Basil 3, to whom this conversion was the heir of the Roman emperors, and the most Orthodox Russian people in the world - the Messiah - must build the Earth's Land in the likeness of the Kingdom of Heaven, and all the other non-humans, the fourth Rome does not exist.
Since greed and complete zasznstvo throughout the country can not pull on the Third Rome, the Russian people believe that it is built in the country of the promised - in the US and angrily hate it because of the black envy. "In the epic" Ilya of Murom and Idolishche "the Russian hero liberates Tsargrad from the pagan Idol, but refuses to be the commander of the city and returns to his homeland. In ancient Russian literature there is no topic of enrichment in conquests, robberies, while plots on this subject are common in Western European literature.
"The main activity of the ancient Slavs is wars and the seizure of slaves with subsequent resale. At the same time, the people lived so poorly that there was nothing to steal, for this they went to war against Tsargrad and caravan routes. Why a schoolgirl - a graduate of this does not know, I can not imagine. "The heroes of" The Song of the Nibelungs "are obsessed with finding a buried treasure - the gold of the Rhine.The main character of the ancient English poem "Beowulf" dies, "saturating the view with the game of gems and the glitter of gold ... In exchange for wealth I put life."
None of the heroes of the Russian epic comes to mind to put life in exchange for wealth. Moreover, Ilya Muromets is not able to accept the ransom offered by the robbers - "golden coffers, colorful dresses and good horses as needed". He, without doubting, rejects the path where "it is rich to be," but voluntarily experiences the road where "to be killed". And not only in the epic, but also in legends, fairy tales, songs, proverbs and sayings of the Russian people, the duty of personal or clan honor has nothing to do with the duty of personal or clan vengeance.
The acceptance of revenge as such is not at all found in Russian folklore, it does not appear to be inherent in the "genetic code" of the people, but the Russian warrior has always been a liberator's warrior. And in this - the difference between the Russian and Western European countries. "Russia was called in the 19th century not only as a gendarme of Europe.
Russian troops conducted punitive expeditions, accompanied by executions, torture and exile to Siberia for death. For example, my ancestor was exiled to Siberia after the suppression of the uprising in Poland, so now I am suffering here. Right now, Russian troops are killing people in Syria, supporting a bloody dictator who has committed torture and murder to his people.
"The Russian historian and philosopher Ivan Ilyin wrote:" Europe does not know us ... because it is alien to the Slavonic Russian contemplation of the world, nature and man. Western European humanity moves by will and reason. A Russian person lives primarily with his heart and imagination and only then with his mind and will. Therefore, the average European is ashamed of sincerity, conscience and kindness as "stupidity".
Russian man, on the contrary, expects from man first of all kindness, conscience and sincerity. The European, brought up by Rome, despises other nations for himself and wants to rule over them. The Russian man always enjoys the natural freedom of his space ... He was always "surprised" by other peoples, kindly lived with them and hated only invading enslavers ... "Ivan Ilyin - normal Russian, he had a pathos based on the concept of Moscow - the Third Rome, under the influence of which formed in his head a myth, first about the Russian people, who is the embodiment of all good, then about the European peoples the embodiment of everything bad.
Most striking is that since Prince Kurbsky lovers and admirers of Holy Russia at all times of the mass fled to the non-Orthodox, sinful Europe. Even now, when prosperity allows, parents send their children abroad, but here they talk about holiness, non-covetousness with a gold watch on their hands. Ilyin from pride did not even try to understand the culture of other peoples.
Philosophy is generally a heavy science and requires an incredible strain to understand another, which is not given to everyone. "The good-neighborly attitude towards the peoples of the annexed territories attests to the mercy and justice of the Russian people. The Russian people did not create such atrocities as the enlightened Europeans on the conquered lands.
In national psychology there was a certain restraining moral principle. By nature, a strong, hardy, dynamic people were endowed with amazing survival. On the strength of the spirit based on the famous Russian patience, and tolerance for others. Under continuous invasions from all sides, in incredibly harsh climatic conditions, the Russian people colonized vast territories without destroying, enslaving, robbing or cross-forcibly any people.
The colonial policy of the West European peoples eradicated the aborigines of the three continents, turned the population of huge Africa into slaves, and invariably metropolis was rich at the expense of the colonies. "My mother lives in the village of Bely Yar of the Tomsk region.
If you pass along the river Ket and its tributaries, then on not flooded hills there will always be the same picture: near the shore small holes are the remains of dugouts, and closer to the forest - large.In the spring, beginning with the collectivization of agriculture ending with the seizure of the Baltic states and Western Ukraine, people were brought here by barges, they were called special settlers, they gave one ax, one saw at all, and they built dugouts.
According to Stalin's decree, peasants of the first category, having a technical adaptation (a winnowing machine, a seeder, a thresher, a mill, etc.) were equated to kulaks of the 1st category and were to be shot immediately after the village, but their families became special settlers. It was impossible to run women with children, there was no road, and it was necessary to be marked in the commandant's office on a daily basis.
The catch was that people were not fed. They began to eat unfamiliar Siberian berries and plants, which led to poisoning, dysentery and death. But the Siberian Thirty-degree frosts were added to the famine in early November, when the earth freezes to a depth of three meters. Therefore, all people died except for children under 5 years old, they were taken to the district center in an orphanage.
One of these "lucky" girls told me her childhood memory: in the mornings, the earth, which was slightly sprinkled by people who died last day, was blown away by the wind, their heads were bare, and the wind ruffled their hair like living ones. "The Russian people, waging not only defensive wars, joining, like all large nations, large territories, never treated conquerors anywhere, like Europeans. From European conquests the European peoples lived better, the robbery of the colonies enriched the metropolis.
The Russian people did not plunder Siberia, Central Asia, the Caucasus, or the Baltics. Russia has preserved every nation that entered it. She was their protector, ensured them the right to land, property, faith, customs, culture. Russia has never been a nationalistic state, it belonged simultaneously to everyone living in it. The Russian people had only one "advantage" - to bear the burden of state building. "
The most interesting thing is that only the Baltic people dug out all the mass graves after the collapse of the USSR and took away the remains of the deceased special settlers, but no one reburied the Russians' bones, because there is no one in the Russian people, one litter in their heads.
"As a result, a unique state in the world history was created, which the Russian people defended with their blood, sparing no life. Precisely because such suffering and colossal sacrifices had fallen on him, my people accepted, as their own pain, the sufferings of other peoples under the yoke of the Hitlerite fascists. And after the liberation of his native country with the same self-sacrifice, he liberated half of Europe with the same energy.
That was heroism! That's what the strength of the spirit of people is born by the Russian land! And it seems to me that even such a great people can not decide for such a feat once in a century. The patriotism demonstrated by a Russian soldier in the fields of the Great Patriotic War is patriotism of the highest standard, which neither world nor domestic history knew. And I will never agree with statements in the press about Russian "barbarity" and European "virtue."
I am proud that our ancestors, our heroic ancestors were so handsome, staunch, courageous and enduring, and we are their descendants! "Russian soldiers - liberators of their heroes heroically, right now, perform a solemn feat that bring death and destruction to the East of Ukraine and Syria.
Glory to the heroic Russian people! Glory to their children, preparing for heroic deeds - murders and violence! Glory to the Russian teachers scribbling children's brains with lies! Glory to the Russian propagandists! Glory to the nightingale droppings and not only! Moscow - The Third Rome! Fourth not to be! Where is our nuclear club? We'll arrange Arkanar all over Russia!
