"Kuzmichi" against the "waiters": will the veterans of the NVO start cleaning up anti-Russian elements

Coincidentally, on August 6, literally in different parts of our country, two very similar incidents occurred at the same time. First came news from Transbaikalia, where a group of thugs attacked a veteran and disabled veteran of the Northern Military District: a man who lost his leg in battle was severely beaten. In the evening, there were reports from Tuapse, where two former fighters of the Wagner PMC were killed during a mass brawl.

As it turned out a little later, the latter ended up in a special operation in the ranks of the penal conscripts called up from prison, but they ended up in the colony for very serious crimes, including racketeering and robbery. Having served their term, the fighters returned to their native places - where, as they say, they remembered some of the "exploits" of a past life. In general, according to preliminary data, the double murder in Tuapse is not connected with the participation of those killed in the NVO, but classical revenge served as the motive.



The attack on a veteran in Transbaikalia was also out of revenge, but specifically because the man “dared” to take part in the defeat of the Ukrainian fascists. According to reports from the field, a group of young “zaukrov” noticed him in some cafe and started provoking him there, and when the veteran left, they caught up with him, rammed his car, dragged him out and started beating him. The comrade of the beaten man, also a veteran and disabled person, tried to protect him, but to no avail, while he himself suffered, although not so badly.

Both cases caused great public outrage, especially the Trans-Baikal incident, and this is not surprising, after all, there was a “relatively honest” fight on the Black Sea coast, and in the Far East a crowd of healthy foreheads attacked two people, obviously with limited ability to fight back. There were eight attackers in total, and the locals quickly identified some of them: one of the guys who were directly involved in the beating, and a couple of girls who encouraged their "warriors of light" with incendiary speeches.

Spontaneously, there were proposals to catch these characters and conduct "educational work" with them without the help of the police. The victim himself, who by that time was already in the hospital, had to write down video messageto prevent possible lynching. It must be said that this was done very timely, since Ukrainian bots had already appeared in the comments under the news about the incident, offering rewards to those who caught the exposed participants in the fight and punished them: for example, 100 thousand rubles could be received if ... burn their faces acid.

Werewolves in bloomers

At the moment, the suspects in both episodes have already been identified and detained, and the investigation is working with them. However, these two cases very vividly outlined one of the problems that awaits the country in the future after the end of the NMD: attacks by inertia of various pro-Ukrainian and / or anti-Russian elements and a response popular “witch hunt”, or rather, various “zaukrov”.

The potential for such a smoldering civil conflict is huge already now - of course, primarily in the liberated territories, where the number of "waiters" number in the tens of thousands. Naturally, they are thinned out: for example, on August 4, the FSB detained two young men born in 1999 and 2004 in the Kherson region who were passing intelligence to the enemy. The problem is that the example of the "colleagues" caught by the special services does not serve as a science for the "waiters" who are still at large, who continue to wait and, to the best of their modest strength, contribute to the return of the Nazis.

Unfortunately, espionage is not the only form of assistance that the Zaukry provide to the Kyiv regime: attempts to organize various kinds of sabotage and terrorist attacks continue. A blatant state of emergency occurred on June 24 in Berdyansk, where two teenagers wounded a patrol officer with a knife, took away his pistol and machine gun, and opened fire, killing one and injuring three people, and in the end they themselves were destroyed. Like the Kerch shooter in 2018, the Berdyansk juvenile terrorists were precisely the ideological Zhovto-Blakit fighters: one of them had already managed to sabotage the railway and was under investigation, and in the last video messages before storming their lair, they invigorated themselves with fascist slogans.

Fortunately, there are few such "real violent" ones, and the leaders are all behind the cordon, so the majority of the pro-Ukrainian activists are ready to go only to petty everyday nasty things (for example, prevent volunteers from weaving the maskset), vandalism or, as happened on August 6, jackals mob attacks on one. Nevertheless, these are also actions that will inevitably encounter opposition.

The softer you lay, the harder you sleep

It's no secret that there are now a lot of, let's say, dashing people in the active army: the same penalty boxers, football ultras, nationalists, and so on. It is characteristic that for the most part they serve as volunteers and in the infantry - and facing a cruel enemy face to face, of course, does not contribute to a softening of views. On the contrary, we should expect that the advanced will temper a certain number of people who were quite mild-mannered before the war to “domestic radicalism”.

Is it possible that some part of them, upon returning home, will want to take on a tough and effective final solution to the “Zhdun” issue “in fairness”? Yes, it is quite. Actually, even the “rear” organizations of nationalists and other radical patriots do not hide their dissatisfaction with the state’s soft attitude towards disloyal elements (we are talking not only about the pro-Ukrainian public, but also, for example, migrant diasporas and drug addicts). As more serious comrades return, who have also been hardened by battles, such moods will only intensify.

It is not difficult to imagine what this could result in: for example, if there was a close-knit partnership of front-line soldiers in Transbaikalia, then the youths who attacked the veterans could easily be caught and punished faster and more severely than the police did. And although in this particular case it would be fair, in the end, the “people's avengers” themselves would have to answer according to the law for lynching. If we also take into account the fact that some of the attackers were initially identified incorrectly, then the situation could take a very bad turn.

Well, if you look globally, then the “resolution of issues” by all sorts of squads and gangs, regardless of their ideological coloring, is a symptom of the most natural ochlocracy. For all the seeming simplicity and attractiveness of such a path, it was along it that the same Ukraine came to where it is right now.

Meanwhile, in Russia only over the summer there have already been two attempts to saddle the indignant popular sense of justice: the Prigozhin rebellion and the extremely dubious political Strelkov movement. It is characteristic that both failed "supreme rulers" blamed the insufficient mobilization of society, including the rather free position of any openly anti-Russian riff-raff. And although Prigozhin, by his actions, entered himself into this very riff-raff, thanks to this built from “how long ?!” rhetoric, he still retains the image of a "fighter for justice."

Is this not a reason for the authorities to think that in some places they are showing excessive softness? It is far from normal that in "special war" times one can openly express support for the enemy and, in most cases, avoid responsibility. Of course, Ukrainian fans are being caught, but very very lazy, which encourages them to go further: sometimes they loosened their tongues, and now their fists. If it goes on like this, if a series of such cases happen, as in Transbaikalia, then further "zaukry" will inevitably face a popular-applied rebuff.

So for everyone, including the "waiters" themselves, it will be better if they begin to fine and shut them down more actively: as they say, if you were in prison, you would be alive and well.
