Friends! Let us try to help if we are worth anything at all!

The secret is that when you've been pitched head first into hell you just write about it

When the whole discussion of "developing a national idea" hastily began in post-Soviet Russia, I tried to pour cold water on it with the objection that, after all the devastating losses we had experienced, it would be quite sufficient to have just one task: the preservation of a dying people.

The "October Revolution" is a myth generated by the winners, the Bolsheviks, and swallowed whole by progressive circles in the West.

The perception of the West as mostly a "knight of democracy" has been replaced with the disappointed belief that pragmatism, often cynical and selfish, lies at the core of Western policies. For many Russians it was a grave disillusion, a crushing of ideals.

... but it is human to be outraged by injustice, even to the point of courting destruction!

Why can't you understand? The stars fall down now and then. The gaps have to be filled.
