Elena Ivanitskaya biography

Our correspondent spoke about the specifics of Russian propaganda, its absurdity and extremely short memory with Elena. This is probably a constant question, but why did you decide to survey the resources of “ultrapatriots”, after the start of it, what is the reason for the decision to take such a not -grateful work that you moved and how do you find time for reading, in general, as far as I understand, are quite monotonous in general, texts?

You are right, they often ask me why I observe and examine the Z-resources. But you are not entirely right that they are "ultrapatriotic." Among them there are “ultra”, but there are other shades: officialdom, moderate, left-patriots, monarchists-patriots, Leninists, Stalins, Zyuganovites ... They are united by the fact that they are “ZA”, and for what reasons and with what expectations are all different.

Why am I doing this, it is easy to answer: to know. Why know this is another question that is difficult to answer. Why look at the reflections in Krivoy, and even a Z-propaganda mirror broken into the fragments? I have repeatedly been reproached that with my reviews I broadcast the propaganda lie, anger and absurdity. But I had the belief that this picture should be studied and know as part of today's reality.

At the very beginning of events, I felt that all my previous plans burned. Scientific plans and these very ... literary. I am also a "writer". The story was going to spin. And scribbled litcritics. There is nothing left of this. Then I decided to examine the ideology of the Z-operation. So, as it is presented in the journalism of printed and electronic publications.

This takes a lot of time, and you can find it in only one way-by abandoning everything that is not directly related to the life support-will-erection. And insomnia helps ... Now, when we are talking, there are more than four hundred daily reviews. A year and more than a hundred days I read, read, read only “this”-propaganda texts in large media and on small Internet sites. I also got acquainted with the texts on the telegram channels, but included them in reviews only in cases where they were reprinted by the media.

In general, I wake up at three to four hours-and forward for reading: “anti-fascist”, “notebook”, “look” ... and further on the letters of the alphabet. Morally and emotionally this is a difficult matter. Even very much. How, in your opinion, the rhetoric of the right media has changed will we call them so from the course of time? What are the most noticeable changes have occurred from the beginning to this day.

Can be distinguished, if suitable from a scientific-classifier point of view, some periods in changing rhetoric? And is it possible to somehow classify them according to some characteristic features, favorite ideas? How the rhetoric changed, now I’ll try to trace and show with examples, but first I will say that those resources and those Zubtors that I “read” are hard to call “right”.

Some directly think and call themselves "left." But those who do not call themselves do not call themselves - invariably "against capitalism." More precisely, if the “theme of capitalism” on the Z-resource pops up, then always and only with a loud that capitalism is evil, that he led to a disaster-went bankrupt-he must be dismantled ... Some authors even make it clear that Za-operation is precisely against “capitalism”.

Anti -capitalist rhetoric appeared on the eve of February 24 and persists until today. Actually, it was initiated from the very top. Let's a little, dashingly illustrate. MK: “I fully support our army, which now fights with fascism not only for the future of Russia, but also for the future of all mankind. We are supported by the left all over the world ... Anatoly Chubais, this symbol of wild capitalism, was evacuated from our country in a hurry.

And there is a probability, of course, not one hundred percent that the capitalism he built will follow him ”MK. Tsargrad: “Today, the changes are we, consistent and not by order of the patriots, opponents of capitalism and the West, anti -liberals, for the empire and social justice” by TSARGRAD. All other topics appeared, disappeared, modified, collided, etc. In the development of the same topic, they constantly jumped out incompatible contradictions.

Let's look closer and analyze the examples. Now it has disappeared and, as the experience of communication shows, the first “goal of special operation” is completely forgotten. The next two - denazification and demilitarization - have gone into the background, but periodically appear in the info, and the first - as if it were not there. But she was, and declared from the very top, - decommunization: “Russian President Vladimir Putin, during his video message, declared readiness to show Ukraine the real decommunization” Lenta.

In the first days and weeks after, some, according to Soviet tradition, was explained with a smart look, what it consists of, they carried out the masses of the “party line”. Here is an exemplary example - “The historian explained the meaning of the decommunization of Ukraine: Boris Yakemenko said that it is impossible to decommunize” Lenta.In fact, as is now taking place, in the process of decommunization, portraits are not only removed, but historical maps are being redrawn, the territory is returned, the legacy of communism is eradicated in any forms, because the new life can be started only from scratch, in a new place, ”he said“ at the same time in the Donbass did not de- compliant, and the Soviet monuments, portraits, banners were returned.

and names. In propaganda - together and next to the "decommunization" red flashed - "grandmother with a flag." As, for example, in the “Russian newspaper” in the text “Grandmother with a red flag has become a symbol of pro -Russian Ukraine” RG. And so deafening that officialdom had to be explained. I will give another exemplary example, and will stop bothering with details.

The unpleasant “clarification of relations” happened on “Ukraine. The author was in such a difficult situation that he said: “Of course, a link to the authority of the President of Russia - the blow below the waist” The trouble was that the monuments to Lenin were restored, and the author’s not -promised couple said that they did not need a “dying Leninist cult” - and referred to the president.

The author citedly quoted: “My team is predominantly young, and I do not remember anyone who would risk their life in battle, being a follower of Lenin. Then for whom do we revive the dying cult? We actually now rake the consequences of all these Leninist decisions. And in general, those who make decisions listened to Putin? Apparently, they didn’t listen. ” The restoration of the monument to Lenin is an economy version of a symbolic return to the Russian world ”...

In reality, an economy version was found another-not to remember decommunization. She did not work, did not rally the audience, but quarreled the asset. And at the same time, political scientists and publicists dug up under the "denazification". For example, on Radio Komsomolskaya Pravda, political scientist Benedictov and leading Mardan cut into the eyes of the public: - “Mardan: what about the ideological background of this military campaign.

How to explain it to good Russian people? The return of territories and the restoration of historical justice in the interests of the people. And it seems that at the beginning of the campaign the word "Russian" also sounded. And then it began to fade. And turn ... - Mardan: ... in the fight against the Nazis. The main scenarios of the events, the host of the Komsomolskaya Pravda radio, Sergei Mardan discussed with the political scientist and chief editor of the Fitzroy Magazine magazine Kirill Benediktov ”KP.

However, the "Irredent" is even more incomprehensible and unpronounced "denazification." Complaints or anger about the failure of propaganda and worthless ideological support - a common place for ideologists and propagandists. Russia has its own tasks. Russia has its own land. She solves her problems on her land. Now he mainly lives with Zubtors from Literature-Culture.

It turns out that the disappearance of a million working hands is not such a good. Since then it has been preserved. However, the question hangs over this topic, why should we pick up even more land when our own is unable. The propagandists are forced to explain. Some have pushed on “historical justice”, others - on “benefit”, others try to combine both, assuring that the restoration of justice brings benefits in the form of “bonuses”.

So Benediktov spoke about this in a quoted interview. Its main equipment is that the West is afraid of nuclear weapons because he wants to live, and we are not afraid and go to the end, because we have spirituality. Additional equipment is not us, but Washington hawks are preparing a nuclear blow. I will illustrate this topic: - This is the model “We are not afraid” - from the text of Igor Pshenichnikov on “Constantinople” “America has begun.

The Russian red button has done its job »TSARGRAD. They are deadly afraid of nuclear vuqna because they understand that they will die and lose all the earthly, to which they are attached to both body and soul. And therefore they are scared to die. While their own leaders, who are not clear how they made their way into power, are ready to shove all of humanity into the pole of nuclear war ” - this is what Victoria Nikiforova writes“ Americans on Putin to the President ”on RIA Novosti,” perhaps the diversity and emboss of the opinions of propagandists are beneficial to the authorities?

After all, the officially declared goals are clearly not achieved, and when there is uncertainty in achieving goals, what to ask? The Z-authors themselves constantly require a “single line”, mandatory ideology, the creation of an analogue of the “Soviet Informburo”-they are angry, boiled, and appeal. Day after day and month after month. But nothing changes exactly. There is no single line of "manual" in propaganda.

There are only some prohibitions, of which the most noticeable is not to touch Turkey and Erdogan. You can sometimes hurt Putin, and Erdogan is impossible. The ban on calling the "special operation" to the war does not concern everyone.
