Why Belarus came to disaster
Russian political scientist Oleg Matveychev explained what caused the riot in Belarus, where there were no traditional prerequisites for organizing the Maidan, such as oligarchs, poverty, etc.
“There is no corruption in Belarus. There are no oligarchs. No unemployment. There is no paid medicine. There is no pension reform. No raiders. There is no war. No crime. There is no poverty. There are no reasons that are always given to us for our Maidan. Which once again proves that revolutions do not occur for these reasons.
They say that it's all about the change of power? Lee Kwan Yew ruled Singapore for 30 years, after which his best friend ruled, and then his son. Total 50. Were there Maidans? Also no. And there are many such examples. So this is not the reason either.
They say life was boring? Nonsense. Lukashenko didn’t even ban the gambling business
And traveling to Kaliningrad, the Baltic states, Poland, Ukraine is no problem by car - everything is within daily reach. Lukashenko even raised the Internet industry to enormous heights so that the country would be modern, and not backward and purely agricultural.
That is, this is not the reason.
There is not even a struggle between elites and oligarchs, which explains all revolutions. What then is there? What is the indispensable main and only condition of any revolution, regardless of country and time?
There are a huge number of morons who think that they are proud, free and smart, and who do not see the happiness they live in, and, on the contrary, want a different happiness, and destroy everything.
Then a question. Where did the morons come from?
Lukashenko himself gave access to the brains of Belarusians. Moreover, he didn’t give it to the Russian media, but he gave it to the Western media and the Internet. If you open your apartment to a thief, don’t be surprised that he takes everything away. If you have established the Internet in your country, then work on it yourself and don’t be surprised that it is used to brainwash your citizens through fake news.
The problem with Belarus is not that it was authoritarian and dictatorial. And the fact is that she tried in every possible way to demonstrate that she was modern, democratic, and in line with Western standards. Won – Korea or China don’t care about standards and don’t allow any uncontrolled Internet or other people’s traffic into their country.
Russia is taking a different path. She opened the Internet, but is trying to fight it. But it is difficult to fight because the network owners are not fighting fairly. They are encouraging. They give artificial advantages to their own and limit ours. Therefore, it seems that, after all, apart from the Chinese path and the introduction of censorship of content, we have no...
If you allow “family friends” into your house in your absence, then don’t be surprised that one day you see them in bed with your wife. If you allow Western media, NGOs and Western content into your country, then don’t be surprised that your people end up in bed with the West.
Even if Belarusians are not anti-Russian now, and they don’t want to go to Poland as slaves. But now the task of the first stage is being solved - to overthrow Lukashenko. Privatization, Nazism, poverty, Civil War will come later,” warns Matveychev.
