I beat you with the whip
four or five
So that you don’t go crazy
On serious people!
But because I’m calm
I respect order and law,
Here’s a penny for vodka
And get out of here!..
Since the beginning of the special military operation in Ukraine, I naturally fear to enter social networks. Because whatever the publication talks about – about nature, about the weather, about satin stitch embroidery – people with Ukrainian flags in their profile photos are always announced in the comments and begin to fiercely express their political position. And especially to explain what kind of torment the author and his entire family up to the seventh generation must suffer, and also to give introductory information about the geopolitical situation. So how do they see?
And there is no end in sight!
For some reason, borscht serves as a particularly gruesome trigger. It is worth typing this magic word, and the whole sister country seems to come true immediately with violent explosions.
I will immediately make a reservation: I have unconditional sympathy for the affected civilian population of Ukraine. Sorry for everyone! But for a number of reasons, I can’t believe the people who wrote these reviews are sitting in basements hungry and thirsty right now. I highly doubt the internet is that good in the basements of bombed-out homes – after all, dozens of comments per minute.
Moreover. For some reason, I get the feeling that these people are not writing from Ukraine, but from their safe zone.
The avalanche of aggression against ordinary Russians has long ceased to amaze. As well as offers around the clock for shame and repentance.
Surprise reactions! I can see with my own eyes how popular bloggers and just good writers continue to respond to such outbursts. To prove something, to explain in one word – to defend.
And I want to ask. For what? For what? What will you prove to commentator Parasiuk, who lies on the couch somewhere in Poland and sees in his sweet fantasies that we’re all burning in hell here? What can be told to him?
And most importantly, why.
Over the years on social networks, I have developed a strong immunity to any expression. And it has increased many times in recent months.
If before I rushed nervously and banned the provocateurs, now I have learned not to read their outbursts. From the first three words it is approximately clear what the purpose of the commentator is. Such “thoughts” were written according to a training manual, but some spread over the main topics.
I’m just leaving the funny stuff on the page – the non-siblings’ anger at stolen microwave ovens and raped old women and cats. So much so that, as they say, “everyone’s stupidity has been seen.”
I delete the rest with one hand without hesitation.
Yes, there is an information war going on. And I think the best way to win it is not to fall for any provocation. Do not give the expected response. Don’t play by someone else’s rules.
