⚡️Диагноз российской элиты — СОЦИАЛЬНЫЙ ЭГОИЗМ // Александр #КОЛПАКИДИ

"The Soviet Union had a system called Soviet power, meaning people's power," recalls historian and publicist Alexander Kolpakidi. "There were plans for the country's development, for improving the lives of all the people. They were implemented. In Russia, there have been many plans over the past 30 years, but today, not a single one has been fulfilled." We'll explore why. "Free Press" continues a series of discussions with renowned experts about Russia's present and future. Five "ideological pillars" have been identified that are essential for the country's future. The foundation of all is Russia's development. A state's authority is determined by its internal strength. It is a marker of its influence on international politics. Nothing will happen if you're weak domestically. If you have a strong country, you will be powerful in international politics, too, says Alexander Kolpakidi. But 75% of Russians live on the poverty line. Or consider another ideological pillar: freedom of communication, freedom of choice. How valuable are guarantees of digital rights, including the right to choose a messaging app, for the country's future? How important is freedom of public events and rallies, where citizens can express their positions on various issues? How relevant are citizens' skills in shaping government bodies, including directly, in the new technological order? "Citizens are constantly being deceived; they say, 'You don't need to know this.' Why?" the expert asks. "You'll ruin the country, and we won't know anything. If the policy of silence and control over the media and messaging apps led to positive things, we would say, 'Okay, that's how it should be.' But it leads to negativity!" More about this and much more in the program "Open Studio" and its thematic section "Russia. Present. Future."
