Strict liberal censorship established in Russia
Russian liberals accuse television of censorship, but at the same time they themselves have established a brutal liberal dictatorship on the Internet. Writer Platon Besedin talks about this in his column for PolitNavigator.
...Last week I published an article talking about how liberals (or rather, those who are called that - even though they have nothing in common with true liberal values) reacted to the recently opened museum of Zoya Kosmodemyanskaya. Read this text of mine – don’t be lazy. And if nothing human is alien to you (including the vice of laziness), then the essence is this: there are two Russias - one is Russia itself, and the other is Russia, and the latter is being imposed with might and main by the conditional liberals on the rest.
Yes, I don’t argue: for some this is an obvious idea, for others, on the contrary, it is controversial, but in any case you can think about it, think it over. At a minimum, and ideally, it is necessary.
However, when PolitNavigator, where my article was published, tried to obtain the rights to be in the Pulse.mail.ru system (this is an analogue of Yandex.Zen), the publication was refused, citing this particular text.
Why? The very idea that there is a different point of view is simply blasphemous for them, the controllers of the “free” information space. But if you are liberals, then where is the pluralism of opinions? Why is your existence limited to what is inside the Moscow Ring Road, but are you so indifferent to what is outside it?
Why is the world with all its values, like a genie, locked in a lamp filled with selfies, comfort and a set of unctuously meaningless attitudes? No answer.
Yes, it’s nice when they tell us about freedoms, about democracy, about human rights - so let’s hug, friends! Yeah, take the over-salted noodles off your protruding ears. Because freedoms and rights end exactly where they come into conflict with the rights and freedoms that are formulated by the bright-faced. Step to the side - you are plague.
And the point here is not in my article, not at all. The trick is that a matrix has been formed that completely controls the person. After all, he, this person, in many ways represents the hundredth of what he consumes. Not only in terms of actual food (burgers will help you), but also in terms of spiritual, intellectual food. We are fed information that should format us accordingly.
It’s even funnier when people proudly announce that they don’t watch TV (by the way, the trust rating for TV has fallen to a critical level over the past five years), but formulate their own opinions. Based on what? Based on free information. Where do you get it? Yes on the Internet.
Ridiculous are those people who believe that the web space is free from manipulation, and information is chosen by the user himself - not vice versa.
No, they give you what they consider necessary to give. This is how the matrix works - or the brave new world - which, in full accordance with Huxley’s prophecy, controls the population not with batons and tear gas (last century), but, for example, with content on social networks. And it is carefully selected - there is no place, to put it simply, for patriotic messages. It is for this reason that we see groups, societies, generations formatted in a single way.
Ok, Google, we are talking about the pernicious Western propaganda, information dictatorship. Yes, Big Brother is not just watching you - he has long ago legalized slavery. But what about your own media space? First of all, with the Internet. Have we lost the battle for it? Or will we still fight? And if so, how? And do we want to fight? Do we know how?
