In Odessa, Poroshenko’s party members did not come to a rally in his defense

Previously, we had our own store under our house, democratic, in the good sense of the word. You come, for example, and watch how an experienced saleswoman trains the new guy: “And don’t even think about slipping Roshen to people!” What a shame! And there won’t be a cash register, you fool!” But then, in place of a good store, they turned into a chain store, a forced one, and with this “Roshen” they filled all the shelves in the confectionery department.

And now buyers come and curse Roshen’s sweets: “He called the Soviet chocolate bar “Alenka” “Olenka,” bloody murderer!” “And “Red Poppy” is “Chervony Poppy”, but the label is Soviet.” And he sells, yeah, he won’t choke. Is it a good idea to post this “Red Poppy” among your classmates and end up under the article...

And then I suddenly hear: “He went through the tyranny of Yanukovych” (gee), “They are afraid of a strong, charismatic leader,” “This is political persecution,” “He is a conditional authority for a huge number of people,” “He is an effective crisis manager.” And this is all about him, right - about the marauder who built a chocolate empire on Soviet sweets and, somehow in between, drowned the Donbass in blood. About Poroshenko.

But just a group of city crazy people gathered in Odessa for a rally in support of the “stupid” ex-president, accused by Ukraine of treason. This is not interesting, because here he, along with his accusers, must appear at the new Nuremberg, but we have what we have. “A huge number of people” were represented by two dozen marginalized people, together with the corps de ballet, who gathered near the monument to Duke.

“Criminal proceedings against Poroshenko are an absolutely far-fetched situation. Based on trust ratings, Petro Poroshenko is running for a new presidential term, which is why the current government has launched political persecution against him. If Poroshenko is arrested tomorrow, it will show the weakness of the current government. Today, when a 150-strong group of Russian troops stands at our borders, engaging in such persecution is either weakness or manipulation. Now, on the contrary, we all need to unite and show that we are strong, to defend our sovereignty,” said Odessa Regional Council deputy from Batkivshchyna, Alexander Barsky, at the rally.

“What the authorities are doing now is a typical Goebbelsian technique: “Accuse something absolutely absurd and they will believe it.” Zelensky’s power is a whole series of betrayals, incompetence, stupidity,” said the head of the Odessa “Maidan Self-Defense” Valery Nachvinov.

“The last thing I want is for something like Gordon, Muraev to come to power in our country, or, God forbid, that the one who runs the country today passes for a second term,” said alternative historian Alexander Babich, one who constantly Odessa is digging in search of Kotsubeyev.

And epic.

“My like-minded people and I gathered in this place for a roll call to see that we all exist, that our views have not changed, and we are ready to defend European values,” snapped Lyudmila Yamshchikova, a member of the Odessa Euromaidan organizing committee.

Well, you understand - four speakers, one and a half onlookers. Even expired Roshen cannot be sold out in a single supermarket.

It is noteworthy that representatives of Poroshenko’s “Eurosolidarity”, who are the leaders in activity in the region - they either spit on the memory of the victims of May 2, or knock on the SBU and the Reich Chancellery of Odessa residents - did not come to the rally in support of their leader. Apparently, they smell something and understand that, by peddling Soviet candies, Poroshenko will get himself the most comfortable cell in prison (along with a courier who will supply booze for delight), but they, stray patriots, do not. So they don’t shine. They urgently resigned their police powers.

Even a message from an anonymous person about the “mining” of the monument to Duke did not help create mass appeal, although it was possible to fight with the security forces, but they did their job and left. In general, the “all-Ukrainian rally to support Poroshenko” did not work out in Odessa. With such “help” from the population, he will not be able to sit out. But it would be better together with Vova. Hanging, for example, dangling your legs to the beat of the anthem.
