but according to my own understanding, tourbionov himself spoke excellent french and german and something about yoga was printed, but to say that he was perceived as a part of , say, french culture on an equal footing, i am afraid that it would be an exaggeration. that is, it was still a gorilla in the zoo. about how this myth enchanted the west. yes , but this myth also ate into the consciousness of the colonized peoples, and it was so well- ingrained that even now, during the war, i see in some of our such discussions an average inside society that a lot of people, even

sitting in the trenches, they are not able to give up faith in this city, that it is a great culture and that it is actually that it involves some kind of humanism, staying on the side of good, faith in reason, and so on, that is, and that exactly and this is the same thing that i hear now on russian television. i sometimes watch it, i even sent it during our working hours. there was recently, um, there was such an evening. where is maria zakharova, the speaker-mig of russia, she, er, she quotes alexander zaveichenko to the flower growers of russia, pushkin and she tries she is trying to build the strength of the great russian culture, then when he was responding to the deputies of the french parliament who wanted to intervene in this violence against the poles is so

russian and they connect these things very cleverly, they weave this uh into this great russian culture, modernity, and it goes on, and it goes on, it lives in the minds of millions of people, why do ukrainians continue to communicate, and it kills. it's just a battle, it's just a coincidence in the system, but in fact this great culture is humane and which just somehow somehow stumbled somewhere. and then rockets flew. how does it work? so, let's immediately put a few dots above and first. well, any

culture, including the culture of the austrians aborigines is definitely valuable in this sense in a purely anthropological sense, there is value in russian culture and in general for studying and in some of its representatives who may have really been humane and it is impossible a probably 100% someone there among them, i was alive, uh, it works, it doesn’t mean that i am looking for a good russian, just because i myself am russian, and for me, i can afford some sharper reactions and statements that, from the side, from someone, well, a representative of some other language and culture that is not russian, could be perceived as well, i don't know , it's not tolerance, it's not political correctness, it's racism

, whatever i want, i'm russian, i can do it, i reflect it all, i experience it and analyze it from the inside, and i insist that i have a moral right to it . integral representation is a complete myth if you want, i don't really like this word because it is too uh-uh widely used and it is not clear in the end that behind it it is not just a fiction, it is a certain coordinate system in which a person then exists, just like there, let's say, the ancient greek existed in space eh gods and heroes are just as modern as the modern russian exists in the system of these images, the concepts of values ​​that

this merchant complex imposed on him. er, individual manifestations and maybe not even by itself, this phenomenon, if you look at it through a glass, its claims to humanity and universality are dangerous. and fyodor mikhailovich dostoevsky already formulated this. -e and e-e in itself what we know is what is good and what is bad and we can teach you this, it is already in this well, this is

the systemic flaw of the entire worldview we are good we are peaceful we are peace-loving well what is the truth there what is there what 10 or what what 20 years we go and cut someone throat, but it’s not, well, it’s not a war about the defense of one’s own land. well, it’s either preventive, or we’re protecting some uh-uh, there’s abstract humanity, or we’re protecting it in the future. anything can be invented, anything can be invented. and what’s extremely important is that everyone who uh-uh at least for a moment we were under the influence of this myth, they are automatically perceived already

not even as sympathizing as subjects, just like eh hmm what dostoevsky wrote that where the foot of a russian soldier stepped, there where the urus put its new one is already russia and he did not and he didn't he hides, he does not hide, he says it in a frank text and let him say it europe shows itself and we will show it who is the boss here in the house the same goes for those people who bought pushkin on pushkin on pushkin, it is difficult to buy all of this is a separate conversation there, not dostoevsky's tolstoy i don’t know tchaikovsky, tarkovsky, i don’t know, on whom, on whom are today’s europeans, americans, and generally intelligent, er, burdensome people of the world, it is

considered that this person is already an automatic ally and to some extent should be an agent of influence of this superpower and this supervalue of this totalitarian church, in essence, i would say that the great russian culture is a totalitarian sect, which does not mean, i repeat, that there are no normal people of any kind within it in the same way, i don't like the concept of good russian, just because it 's true to me, yes, but we remember that valeria illinichna navedemorskaya was there, or borya

nemtsov was there. broken but well, this happens, that is, you write very warmly about that, all of them, all of them, all of them, the technical intelligentsia who invented bombs, they listened to galich and okudja in the evening, unfortunately, it’s true. yes, you understand, you have to be very careful here. that the ukrainians contributed to the power of the empire, we know that the ukrainians are those who are subordinated and those who felt themselves to be ukrainians and somehow appreciated this beginning, they also made rockets and made bombs and everything else, and we remember let's say that as of the end of the 80s, this is

volodymyr lanovy, a professor and former minister of economy of ukraine, told me that as of 1989, it seems that 79% of ukrainian industry was working for defense, that is, what we are being bombarded with today and what they are pressuring us with. to a large extent, the product of our parents and grandfathers, well, our conditions, we are now talking about, and many people who watch us, they cannot understand what is the rapacity, so to speak, of this imperial culture or imperial cultural codes, or issuing this in general, this concept, eh big russian culture, for example, when we talk about the fat man. i was listening to you all the time and i was thinking about the fact

that the two are the brightest. well, my favorite characters from childhood are also the kindest. this is actually the soldier platon karataev, the one whom pierre meets in captivity here and there starts a conversation with him, they talk for a long time, and the gunner, who is the battery commander, is also a soldier, can he be an officer, captain tushin, his name is that nikolai rostov meets on the battlefield, both of these military men are a model of humanism, spirituality, wisdom, generosity, and all e possible imaginary virtues these people who are now committing war crimes in our country are not all ill-educated idiots, among them there are those who have read books, and many

people have a question: how come the values ​​of the great russian culture are not reflected in the mentality of these people so where did they get away from each other how did they develop with this big i'm sure a lot of people are asking themselves this question i think there are several points er-er one of them is that er hmm russian culture justified slavery it justified it during the existence of voice, we started in modern european culture almost at the same time, when there was kotlyarevsky, there was no pushkin yet, and then we tightened it up a little bit, we were delayed at the start, but in general, we

developed more or less synchronously like this russian culture was engaged in the fact that it, on the one hand, was terribly fascinated by this man, it cherished this image of platon karataev

. to the benefit and to the detriment of these peasants, instead of just fucking stop being a fish owner, but as a moral compensation for the fact that you are a slave owner, you begin to poeticize your slaves and admire them, and i will tell this to my brothers in my own ruling class and to them themselves what they are the most wonderful, although there simply isn’t enough time for the tsifanaberias with which tolstoy elevates his plato karataev. this is

simply an archaic consciousness, this is the consciousness of the primitive communal ice, as we taught it in i don’t i know who, how am i? they started telling me about him in the fourth grade of high school and in the history of the ancient world, and when you start praising a person who was a thousand years behind in his development , and this person then miraculously retained this state of consciousness, his uh, a thousand years behind years were delayed until today, because today's russians and those who come to bucha and those who sympathize with them from the middle of russia, and there, as it was

at the beginning, and now somewhere around 70-80% approve of all this. there are no mass protests, it’s all primitive communal consciousness and russian is great, what is it that i am leading to? great russian culture has justified and legalized it. it is this state in this that is its historical . i will wake up the story about the gestomali, when russian soldiers tried to communicate with us through russian culture. so , at the end of february or at the beginning of march, i saw

a photo of a wall of a building of some kind of technical building that was destroyed in a destroyed airport military airfields in gostomel, where some russian soldier wrote a quote from gogol's taras bulba on the wall in large letters, the words that taras says to his son andreyiv well, son, did your helpers help you, it means that they are trying to communicate with us in the field of this culture and in the field, actually. here, in all the frameworks, it means that they understand that we are what, that in this field , you can communicate with us and that we are in these frameworks together with them, correctly, i understand it is this inscription well, they actually at this point they are adequate because um, i don't know how in that school i

studied in a russian school, well, simply because as a result i graduated from a russian school so we can she was she was a very good school and she was we have a very good teacher of russian language and literature but i remember that in our program , more time was devoted to russian literature and the russian language than to ukrainian . well, i was just amazingly lucky that two of my teachers were ukrainian, they were extremely bright, gifted, energetic, devoted and they actually infected me from the beginning, so to speak. but they had less time for lessons, and that's why i'm convinced that the same thing was

observed and in some kazakhstan and turkmenistan, anything goes they knew russian culture better than their own if their parents did not make certain efforts to break this order, and therefore in this sense, in addition, there were several more our nails were cutting our fingers over and over again that there was nothing in moscow and people could, in principle , afford an artist, i mean we, you can afford a certain frond, we had little

non-criminal crime there, i remember how at one time, in the kyiv building, there was a cinema closed by the way, the screening of the film comedy garage is now ryazanova it would seem well, it's normal there, uh, soviet comedy well, it's a little, a little bit satirical, but for this show, the deputy director of the cinema house at one time was fired from his job because he allowed himself such chrome and that's why many of those things which could to grow up on ukrainian soil, including those who were conditionally protesting and whether there was a conditional front like that, we took it from russian simply because it was, well, quite natural, quite normal, and i remember how people of a slightly older age communicated with quotes from

ilf and petrov, er, when they wanted to add to your language there is additional irony then they started communicating with quotes from the strugatskyi brothers, then i heard them communicating with quotes with quotes from plugakov and they are still used in principle, so in this sense it is let's say this this is not the norm, but it can be explained well, i think that this is already practically irrelevant . i think that in the previous lessons i looked at what bothers me or maybe i'm wrong. it seems to me that this excel culture that we are talking about is as if you know how sometimes in the cinema or in the theater it will sit in front of you a big fat uncle

is sitting in front of you. you don't see, he doesn't let you see the performance, that is, that's how i'm at peace. so we don't see other cultures because of this back. this is actually the first point of my claims. amazing their disgusting preachiness, some kind of methodical tone , what but i have come to tell you the truth and you are uh-uh evil sit and listen to this uh, this is the first point, and the second is that uh-uh, it is a culture in itself and those who are imbued with it, they are uh-uh they claim all your attention, and if you have a

piece of space left there, that is, faulkner can be found in someone there, anatolf franz, someone there, bark, and anyone else, i was homer, but in general, this is a claim to universality and the filling of the entire space. precisely by its manifestations well okay, let's assume dostoevsky there or tolstoy , and whatever it is, well, world-renowned great authors, but there are well, okay , there's tchaikovsky and musorsky - it's also a european-level phenomenon, but let's assume a rating or vrubel, on which the soviet intelligentsia prayed, well, these are very local phenomena

, well, that's it, that's it, that's interesting. such expressionism yes yes yes and where russian culture has put its foot, it claims that it should obscure your entire horizon in front of you and this, so to speak, is not because they are so well you are because they are so aggressive, of course they are bad but for us, it's not because they are bad, well, because they want something

bad, but because they are so arranged and they . i still have people left in russia with whom they are we don't maintain a relationship, but at least i watch them, i sympathize with them, i will cry for them. but if i sympathize with them, it's not because they are good russians for me, because i mourn them despite the fact that they are good russians, and not because they are good russians and that in principle, it also applies to these manifestations when a russian is...well, i'm not necessarily an ethnic russian. well, he can be an azerbaijani, a jew ...i don't know about armenians or anyone else, but when

he starts talking to himself and you know, i'm a lot- interviewed many times in various e-e russian stars, intellectuals, directors , actors, musicians, colleagues, journalists, stars, with a rare exception, literally a rare exception. like, and you feel like some kind of first grader who came to the teacher, it's sewn into it, it's not just there, there's

a lack of tact, a lack of taste, a lack of upbringing - it's sewn into the firmware like this, oh, i apologize for the great russian culture, they feel like that in the world and even now, when it would seem that you have to hide behind it, cover your face with your hands and uh and blush and uh, it's just not even a cult in order not to somehow arouse uh, this one, that's a shame, your own forty, instead but they continue to tell us how it is right and this is wrong and this is wrong, what are you going to do with tchaikovsky, you understand how far you will go , as if they, uh, did not go far, and we, mothers

, risk going far, and they did not go to and and it is being done again after all, i am a dumb person from myself i'm ok. how old am i? i've seen many such experiences. let me share my feelings with you. no, this is done again on behalf of this great culture.
