People Hate Politicians. And I Can Understand

Politics Is Traditionally A Male Domain In Russia. Until Now, Women Have Only Been Accessories. Now, Female Protest Groups Are Emerging - Not Because Men Came Up With The Idea, But Through Their Own Efforts. That's Something New For Russia.

After Trump's Election Victory, I Explained Why There Would Be No Friendship Between Putin And Trump. The Contradictions Between The Systems Are Too Great. And Putin Needs An Enemy. He Wants To Be The Leader Of The Anti-american, Anti-european World. And Given That He Cannot Be Friends With Their Heads Of State And Government, He Instead Needs To Generate Scandals And Resistance.

Unfortunately, People Expect A Russian Opposition Politician To Be A Manic Libertarian Who Thinks The Oligarchs Are Great, Who Isn't Interested In The Problems Of Retirees And Who Believes The Invisible Hand Of The Market Will Resolve Everything.

I'm On The Very Blackest Part Of The Black List.

I'm Not Going To Appeal To Violence Or Aggression - Of Course Not.
