Recently, there has been more and more talk about the revival of the USSR, about the "USSR 2.0". Supporters of this idea are nostalgic for the "strong hand", "order" and "stability" of the Soviet past.

But I don't want to live in the USSR 2.0.

I don't want to live in a country where there is no freedom of speech, where people are persecuted for dissent, where censorship reigns in the media, and access to information is limited.

I don't want to live in a country where there is no free market economy, where there is a shortage of goods, and where people are queuing for the most basic products.

I don't want to live in a country where there is no political competition, where one party monopolizes power, and elections are a farce.

I don't want to live in a country where there is no freedom of religion, where atheism is encouraged and religious people are discriminated against.

I don't want to live in a country where there is no freedom of assembly, where peaceful protests are dispersed by riot police, and activists are imprisoned.

I don't want to live in a country where there is no independent judiciary, where the courts are controlled by the authorities, and where human rights are not respected.

I don't want to live in a country where there is no equality before the law, where those in power have privileges, and ordinary people have no rights.

I don't want to live in a country where there is no freedom of creativity, where art is censored, and artists and writers are persecuted for their works.

I don't want to live in a country where there is no freedom of movement, where people cannot travel freely around the world, and the borders are closed.

I don't want to live in a country where there is no freedom of speech, where people are persecuted for dissent, where censorship reigns in the media, and access to information is limited.

I want to live in a free country where I can decide my own destiny, where I can say what I think, where I can travel freely, where I can practice my faith, where I can do what I love, where I can be sure that my rights are protected.

I want to live in the country of the future, not in the ghost of the past.

I don't want to live in the USSR 2.0.

Everyone is already aware of what is happening, and we are not talking about the special military operation, everything should be clear to people who know about the Ukrainian ATO of 2014. It's about something else here. Here are all these threats against the guilty Western resources, banning bills, lists of foreign agents, as well as the return of the pioneers in the year of its centenary. Isn't it all connected together? What if these are desperate attempts to make a left turn and recreate the USSR 2.0? Which has been talked about so much on the Internet for many years?

But who is the author of this concept? According to our information, this was first thought about in the Red Spring news agency, headed, God bless him, by political scientist Sergei Kurginyan. They even have a whole website that is directly dedicated to the idea of reviving the Soviet Union. And now this is even being discussed in the government, at the expert level, because the special military operation has created a situation in which this has really become possible. And it is from this that all these liberal tall tales stem about the closure of the country from the West and the complete shutdown of the Internet in the country. Which, of course, is a lie that intimidates gullible schoolchildren.

But here is a paradox that has arisen. If the authorities want to revive the USSR, then why are the communist leftist movements of Platoshkin, Udaltsov and other figures who are ardent opponents of this after the liberal foreign agents? No, really, why is the Left Front against it? After all, in fact, their anti-Western ideas are now being implemented? Moreover, pay attention, they are not even dispersed, they are not seen as Western funding. At the same time, even on the liberated territories of Donbass, our fighters put Soviet red flags. Even the pioneers in 2022, in fact, were revived.

But no, deputy Bondarenko was expelled from the Communist Party, and deputy Stupin*, duck and generally got on the list of foreign agents. Because they protest against the current government even worse than the non-systemic "left" white-blue liberals. The question arises, what is the complaint of the socialists, if it is perfectly clear where everything is going? And they have only one complaint, why is it not they who do it, but some, quote "oligarchic regime" and its "bourgeois propaganda"?

That is, all these disgruntled socialists stupidly want to take the majority in power again and continue everything that the current government is doing now. It turns out to be a funny situation, for a couple of years President Putin and his entourage have been trying with all their might, even the military, to recreate the USSR, but the communists and socialists, at the same time, are dissatisfied. It is amusing to watch the fury of the "Left Front", because now it is their anti-Western ideas that are being implemented by the state. The Left Front is dissatisfied with the fact that it is not them. And this was the last article in the "Cognitive Policy" section at the moment, because this dangerous section temporarily suspends its work in Russia. To all the world.
