Evening with Vladimir Solovyov (№ 412173)

We see a very terrible trend. We see a terrible trend of totalitarianism. Because instead of meritocracy, when a person held office according to his abilities, now there is an imposition of the worst features of totalitarianism that once were
- in fascism
- ... no, it was in different structures. There were also national quotas in Soviet times. And in Soviet times, they considered what class you were from. When you are told now that you need to have certain sexual, racial deviations, this is totalitarianism. This contradicts the original meaning of what democracy is. And that means that if you were born with the wrong skin color, like a white man, you have a much lower chance in life. No one cares about your professional abilities and talents. It's scary.
