Vasya Berezutsky is 100 percent right when he says that athletes who want to succeed have no chance in Russia today. And it is precisely for his freely expressed opinion that all evil spirits are now biting him.
I never build arguments in the genre of “who are you – and who is the object of your criticism?” I believe that anyone can express their opinion – and also anyone can criticize it. At least criticize Alla Pugacheva, but not in the spirit of “an unpatriot and the wife of a gay man,” but in a reasonable, constructive manner. Without labeling, without using verbal manipulation and logical juggling.
We are slowly turning into the libretto of the great Alfred Schnittke’s opera “Life with an Idiot.” I remember how during concert performances, before the first bars of the orchestra, conductors often handed out newspapers of that time to the musicians and spectators instead of the score, the most obscurantist ones being Pravda, Sovetskaya Rossiya…
Today the situation is becoming completely deplorable. What sometimes seems to people to be a public discussion, a polemic, in reality is not such. It’s simple: the louder you shout, the faster they will hear you. Or maybe not. Many people scream. Then you have to talk outright, wild nonsense. Just as priests and senators tell us that higher education is harmful for a woman because it interferes with her reproductive function, so in the field of sports now, the more stupid you say, the higher the likelihood that she will “get infected.”
Berezutsky repaid his debt to his homeland, having spent a lot of years here. But another sports veteran comes out, only with a functional status, and imprints on Vasily: it’s no good, they say, to give advice on where it’s better for young people to play and develop. Deputy Dmitry Svishchev first listed for a long time that Berezutsky played in Russia, and bought a house in Spain (apparently, this is already a terrible crime), but at the end he drove in the last nail: “It’s very disappointing that it is from his lips that we hear a call for young people to leave the Russian Federation . This means that he has an autumn exacerbation” (quoted from “RB Sport»).
