It’s really time for me to go to bed but as always on Saturday, there is a new Yulia Latynina’s “Kod Dostupa” and I cant resist a quick translation of one passage (as always, most of it is about a Russia, but this fragment is about America)

And I will now quote quote a little a book entitled: “In Defense of Robberies”. 304 pages. Now already in its second edition. IHere is a quote: “For most of American history, one of the most righteous tactics against white suprematists was robbery.

When colored people rob a store, they take back a tiny fraction of what was historically stolen from them. ”
Well, as Proudhon said, "property is a theft."

That is, if you did not know why they were robbing a store with iPhones, you now have a very simple answer: these

iPhones were stolen from black people a thousand years ago. Now, in case you didn’t know: in Zimbabwe they used iPhones until the whites came and stole them. And if you still don’t know why they burned the bar of a black fireman, the answer is also simple:

his desire to earn money instead of resisting by means robbery, made this race traitor a part of the white culture.

And if you still do not understand why they killed the black 77-year-old ex-cop David Dorn, who was trying to defend his friend’s store,

the answer is again obvious: it was an uprising, and he, was defending a store, that is, he fought on the side of the racists.

And if you think that this an exception and there are very few books that justifiy looting and it was was published long ago in 2014, then I will

give you two recent examples. An MSNBC reporter stands in front of building in flames and says, “This is basically a protest. There is no violence. Well, that's just a fire. ” Or Hannah-Jones on television says: "Destroying property that can be replaced is not violence."

“Oh, how interesting you said!” - the TV host answers.

On this occasion, I have two news: one is bad and the other is also bad. And the first bad news I have is for our own propagandists who rejoice in the burning America as if they themselves set it on fire. Guys, calm

down, America will survive this. In the year 92, Los Angeles was also smashed, 63 people were killed. In America, democracy grows from such rich soil, saturated with such fertiliser, intertwined with such roots that it is not easy to destroy this fertile layer.

And the United States will continue to make iPhones that you buy from it through the Internet through which you try to shit on it.

The second news is also bad, in general, for all fans of an open society, and it consists in the fact that gradually a new totalitarianism

is arising in the free world. And all this is happening - and the desecrated statue of Lincoln, and the treatment of Rowling, who “must be canceled”, and Mrs. Bender, the head of the city council of Minneapolis, who explains to CNN that “your unwillingness to be robbed is

your white privilege”, and the football player who is fired for his wife’s tweet, and another person who is fired for saying that all lives, not just blacks, matter.

Yes, of course, this is a wonderful new world that is approaching.

We have already seen this world in Russia. It was described by Bulgakov in the persons of Sharikov and Shvonder. (from me: in “The Heart of a Dog”)
