Not so fast | Natalia Antonova by kvs http://www.venik4.com/2012/01/another-russian-revolution-not-so-fast-natalia-antonova/comment-page-1/#comment-33336 kvs Wed, 11 Jan 2012 14:55:57 +0000 http://www.venik4.com/2012/01/another-russian-revolution-not-so-fast-natalia-antonova/#comment-33336 A couple of demonstrations drawing 30,000 people are not "mass demonstrations". This is a drop in the bucket given the size of Moscow's population and the supposed massive electoral fraud in Moscow. If there was any activation of discontent there would have been 300,000+ taking to the streets. You had demonstrations over 150,000 in London against the Iraq war that were basically ignored by the western media, the same media that is now trying to turn these small Moscow demonstrations into epic uprisings.

This street thug got six months of training in the US at Yale. Imagine US politicians getting trained in hostile foreign states and trying to get elected, there's no chance they would even be on the ballot. What’s there to smear?

Why quote such drivel? Because it is written in an established media outlet. Why not dig up some random foaming at the mouth Russia hater and quote them instead. Whatever she thinks, UR and Putin are the centrist Russian mainstream. Yabloko, the KPRF, The SPS offshoot Right Deal are all fringe parties. Russians vote for Putin because they want to. Gessen's nutbar conspiracy theorist opinions don't matter. From her first line this bimbo establishes herself as a tin foil hat schizo. Why quote such drivel?

For every ideologically-motivated protester, there is a hundred jerkoffs, who are there just because they are bored out of their minds. And, of course, there are "professional" protesters who attend these events because that's how they get their exercise for the day. They would have attended every protest on every topic, if they could. Many go to these protests because they have nothing else to do.

In a country of 142 million people we have the western media monkeys jumping up and down, screeching about 31,000 *potential* demonstrators. If the election was "rigged" as they claim then you would have 310,000+ signing up in Moscow alone. But this whole narrative is BS media propaganda. The pre-election opinion polls, by the independent pollsters VCIOM, ISA and Levada, showed over 50% support for United Russia and they got 49% in the vote. Now why would Russians demonstrate? To please western meddlers? Simply incredible. In a country of 142 million people we have the western media monkeys jumping up and down, screeching about 31,000 *potential* demonstrators.
