crisis [Theme] Page 3

It is very close to me that Russian political science is shifting more and more towards Marxism. I have always held the view that there are objective processes in history besides personalities and certainly conspiracies. The crisis that is taking place in America is objective and quite predictable. Its essence is very simple: the system that was invented 200 years ago by smart, forward-thinking, talented slave owners has come to a state where it cannot meet the needs of today's American society. Different technologies, different ethnic composition, education - everything is different. Actually, this is the crisis.

The crisis, guys, is like a disease of the Spaniard, Kazmar often said: who was afraid of it, he died from it, and who did not rob, she did not touch. From time immemorial, incapable people refer to difficulties. The crisis is an excuse for unlucky entrepreneurs, a cushion under lazy heads. And we are healthy, we are not afraid and will not yield.

Prayer, the former pillar of life, has ceased to mean anything.

The coronavirus is a test of feelings, a test of relationships, a test, if you will, of the meanings of our existence. Every crisis is an opportunity.

Think about it: when there is a crisis, and people do not have enough money to buy things, does the Earth become some other place? Are goods disappearing from store shelves and soil to grow grains somewhere? It's just the rules of the game that we follow and that cause so much suffering.

At the police academy, the first step is to instill situational awareness in future officers. The term, in essence, implies attention to what is happening in your neighborhood. The ability to assess the environment, the degree of danger and be ready, if necessary, to take appropriate measures before a crisis breaks out. However, the skill is necessary not only for public order agents, but also for an ordinary citizen: if you are absent-minded, you are vulnerable and completely unprepared for what may happen in a moment. Visual information helps to protect oneself from harm and saves lives, but observe what actually happens: the majority of pedestrians have their heads down, smartphones in their hands, what is going on a meter from their nose, they have no idea. You have no idea how many, because of such carelessness, were hit by cars, robbed, killed. It's not even about gadgets: some just hover in the clouds and do not control the space, that is, they give themselves up to chance. So is it any wonder that people fall out of the blue and break their spines, their bags are cut off, a racing skateboarder is knocked down, and the sole is decorated with dog shit? The typical human reaction time is about one and a half seconds. In a criminal excess, this is extremely high. And not a single criminal will give an opportunity for maneuvering, as, for example, in the event that an uncontrolled truck rushes at you. You either jump right away or you die.

If there was Peter the First, everything would be different. But the whole question is that during such periods Peter the First does not come. And Nicholas II comes. This is logical. At the time of the fall of the Roman Empire, Caesar was gone. This is what we call a systemic crisis.

We are the victorious people. All hegemons were defeated. With great difficulty Chingizids. Karl XII was knocked out. Then Napoleon. Then Hitler. And now, gentlemen, we are ending US dominance. We did not fight against them, we defended ourselves. They have a crisis. Both by itself, and because the West is deprived of the opportunity to pump the world GDP in its favor, which it has been using for 500 years. We are the providers of freedom and peace.

We need a new offensive ideology that would restore Russian courage inside and then be projected outside. We have a huge number of ideas that are on the table and that we do not use. One of Russia's tasks is to stop spitting from the West. We must look at them with a sufficient level of arrogance. They are going through a civilization crisis. We can even look at them with compassion, without reacting to all the rubbish they pour.

The crisis is the meeting point of the romantic past and the cynical present.

The first rule of diplomacy is not to give good abyss of the crisis.

- I have faced a problem common to most writers.
- Alcoholism?
- A creative crisis.

Decay, moral corruption, is gradually penetrating into all aspects of our lives - that is what awaits us. Every day inch by inch. People won't even notice how the lights go out. Because they will sparkle, they will gradually come to naught. Or we can finally organize and lead it so that the deep national crisis was obvious to all...

Manchek was quite prepared and even predisposed to deal with the crisis of the largest magnitude. However, this does not mean that he immediately recognized the crisis itself.
