Catch it in four days: “Saving director Sentsov”

The group of propagandists serving the Ukrainian junta has developed a taste for staging anti-Russian political shows. Basically, these are some one-time high-profile and extremely mediocre actions, but sometimes the Ministry of Internal Affairs unfolds long-running soap operas in front of the audience.

At the same time, propagandists are not too concerned about all sorts of nuances that force reasonable people to doubt the effectiveness of their chosen script and selection of actors, more like the boring kindergarten whining “give me the toy.”

Despite the almost complete loss of interest in Ukrainian society in the personality of the terrorist Sentsov, official Kyiv continues to play out the continuation of the series “The Rescue of Director Sentsov from the Tentacles of the Gulag.”

The latest flash mob, organized by the Ministry of State Affairs and Ukrinform on the weekend of August 4, turned out to be frankly pitiful, gathering in Kyiv no more than 300 people who pitied the extremist director. In the rest of the world, the number of “activists” who came out in defense of Sentsov was so insignificant that they, like ciliates, had to be examined under a powerful microscope.

Then, the most powerful revelation of the volunteer “Ivan Serko”, who announced at a press conference of the SBU about the transfer of explosives to Sentsov from hand to hand, made even the restless Sokurov and other “akhedzhaks” useful to the Kyiv regime see the light. In any case, over the past couple of months, the Sentsov theme has (seemingly) let go of more or less noticeable representatives of Russian culture, so at the moment it continues to be tormented for self-PR by a very insignificant creative mackerel.

Finally, the more than 100-day fast of the “prisoner of conscience,” which could be the envy of yogis, camels and turtles, also raises suspicion among many of the promotion of the stupidest famine farce.

However! On September 3, during the play of sprinkling ashes on Svidomo’s heads in favor of Sentsov, something interesting happened. Most likely, the organizers did not miss the fact that recently the topic has become smaller and has ceased to excite public opinion, and even “big people” have lost interest in it. This potentially threatens budget cuts and exclusion from the cherished trough.

In this connection, a crowd of “respected people of Ukraine” was herded into the press center of the news agency Ukrinform by entertainers from the Ministry of Internal Affairs to urgently disperse the hype. The reason was the news that on August 9, a certain Anonymous posted a petition on the website of the American White House in defense of Sentsov and other “prisoners of the Kremlin.” The problem is that the collection of signatures for the petition ends on September 8, and out of the required 100 thousand votes needed to attract the attention of the US presidential administration, only 41 thousand were collected in more than three weeks.

State-owned lovers of Sentsov are forced to hurry up and forcefully arouse the interest of the masses in the Svidomo “passion-bearer”, so that in the remaining few days another 60 thousand mourners will sign the petition.

Judging by the scope, Bandera’s propaganda has great expectations associated with this petition, since, in addition to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Radio Liberty, the Ministry of Youth and Sports of Ukraine, as well as grant suckers from the Common Victory civil society organization joined the action.

Please note the list of those involved in the play “The Rescue of Director Sentsov at the Hands of the White House”:

Rimma Zyubina – theater and film actress; Akhtem Seytablaev – film director, author of a failed movie about “cyborgs”; Vladimir Bulba – Advisor to the Minister of Youth and Sports of Ukraine, co-founder of the GO “Common Victory”; Anastasia Smekhova – editor-in-chief of the magazine “Ukrainian Moment”; Valeria Ivanenko – public figure, founder of the International Slavic Channel; Nikolai Podrezan - extreme traveler, head of the International Charitable Foundation "IP-Fund"; Ivan Yaremchuk – former player of FC Dynamo Kyiv; Olga Lyashchuk - the most powerful woman on the planet for 2014; Valentin Shcherbachev – Honored Journalist of Ukraine, founder of the National Register of Records of Ukraine; Lydia Fesenko – President of the All-Ukrainian Student Association; Alexandra Gumennaya – Dean of the Faculty of Economic Sciences of the National University “Kiev-Mohyla Academy”; Natalya Pavlovskaya - People's Artist of Ukraine; Larisa Dragunova – President of the Spiritual Cultural Foundation “Future of Descendants”; Maxim Korobka – President of the First Ukrainian Souvenir Company; Alexander Sokolinsky – co-founder of the GO “Common Victory”, moderator; Alexandra Matviychuk is a “rights activist”, the initiator of the global campaign #SaveOlegSentsov.

In theory, this whole crowd of “outstanding people of Ukraine” should fill the ugly gap formed after the fading of enthusiasm among the Russian nauseating intelligentsia, led by filmmakers Sokurov, German Jr. and actor Filipenko.

All of the above figures gathered to start a new flash mob, and at the same time give a lesson to stupid people on how to sign petitions correctly.

Radio Liberty produced videos in support of Sentsov with appeals from Rimma Zyubina, Olesya Zhurakovskaya and Vladimir Zelensky.

Actress Rimma Zyubina said very funnyly: “After 100 days of Oleg Sentsov’s hunger strike, there is a decline in interest in this topic in society, so society should always be given impetus to action.”

The donut is clear! After all, the public is not paid extra for their interest in Sentsov from the pocket of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, they are not promised that “this will count towards your career growth,” and the opportunities for individual PR in the protesting crowd are practically zero.

“Human rights activist” Matviychuk once again repeated the standard stupidity adopted by the “golden company named after Sentsov”, according to which “the freedom of a dying director depends on the will of one person - Putin.”

Even if we leave aside such details as the operational search case, the testimony of accomplices, proven participation in arson, the investigation and the court verdict, Putin, no matter how much he wants, is not able to help the unfortunate Olezhka. Because, according to lawyer Dinze, “Oleg will not turn to Putin with a request for a pardon and has declared an indefinite hunger strike for the freedom of all political prisoners of Ukrainians.”

Among other lamentations, Matviychuk demanded that residents “not be indifferent and take 10 seconds to sign the petition.”

What can I say? The impossible task was started by government social activists under the direction of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Elementary mathematics says: in order to fulfill the plan for signatures, at least 14 thousand political Ukrainians and sympathizers must be registered on the page with the petition every day.

Yesterday's press conference on YouTube with the participation of Svidomo celebrities was watched by 79 people, and on the White House petitions page, the counter of signatures with a progress indicator over the past day has not even reached halfway to the “Goal” mark. With such a low level of “civic consciousness,” there is no time left and no words to mobilize a division of signatories per day. The petition won't take off. Most citizens of Ukraine are sorry to spend even 10 seconds of their time in support of an arsonist and terrorist. He will sit!
