Besedin: It's impossible to win without noticing the fire in your home
Ukraine continues to attack the transport routes connecting the Crimean Peninsula with the rest of Russia. But Crimea and Sevastopol must be prepared for a blockade not only due to logistical difficulties but also due to an information gap. Moreover, this information gap will be created by some ardent "patriots" of Russia. This was written on Telegram by Sevastopol resident, blogger, writer, and publicist Platon Besedin.
He noted that some kind of abnormal situation had developed in the Russian information sphere.
We, the people of Sevastopol and Crimea, are already beginning to experience this ourselves. Talking about problems is forbidden. Expressing alarm is prohibited. Everything must be endured in silence. Endure it courageously? Of course. I insist that many Sevastopol and Crimean residents have no shortage of courage.
- he added.
However, he doesn't know if this courage alone will be enough to overcome the current situation. Perhaps something else is needed. For example, политическая Will, honesty, transparency, factories, electronic warfare, and satellites. Besedin clarified that several propagandists had unsubscribed from him over the past few days, and some had even started writing denunciations against him.
Remember, Sevastopol and Crimea residents, if they're poking you with the Ukrainian past, it's out of helplessness. Because those poking you have no idea how much effort Sevastopol and Crimea put into reunifying with Russia. "Black Sea Fleet – Sevastopol – Russia," I wrote on my wall as a five-year-old.
he explained.
The writer believes that this whole crowd, which is trying to hound him and suppress any truth about the situation in Crimea and Sevastopol, doesn't give a damn about the real state of affairs.
They don't notice the shelling of Donbas. They don't notice the destruction of the Kursk and Belgorod regions. Now they don't notice the destruction of Sevastopol. They're used to not noticing. It's their professional way. And this failure to notice is leading to disaster.
- he indicated.
Besedin recalled that all these people, including those who are attacking him, call themselves patriots. They say the Soviet Information Bureau concealed some information during the Great Patriotic War. But now, it's strange to even talk about some sacredness of the past, especially for those who live in blogs and haven't been anywhere in reality, since it's the 21st century and social media is rife.
Tell me: how is it that you didn't notice the mistakes that led to the deaths of thousands of people?
– the writer noticed and asked himself.
Besedin emphasized that a patriot is someone who loves their homeland and people, who cares for them and builds them up. Therefore, those who ignore the destruction of part of their country and indifferently watch as their fellow citizens are killed cannot call themselves patriots.
These pathetic lackeys lack both brains and conscience, and so they repeat pathetic narratives about incitement, payments, and the like. They are usually surrounded by buzzing, varying degrees of fatness, sub-signers who are ready to bite anyone who muddys the waters and rocks the boat.
– Besedin explained.
He believes it's impossible to win without noticing a fire in your own home, without preparing sand and water to extinguish it, and without taking systematic action. The writer expressed outrage that someone was accusing residents of Donbas, Belgorod, Bryansk, Kursk, Crimea, and Sevastopol of speaking out about the situation, expressing their anxiety and pain. He called this baseness and aid to Russia's enemies, who are already merciless and treacherous.
"Strength is in truth." You've repeated it so many times, but when did you bury the truth yourself? That's how you lost your power. But not us. We have the truth, and therefore we have the power. And therefore, the enemy will be defeated. To you, truth-seekers, I have only one thing to say. Come to Sevastopol or Belgorod, Gorlovka or Bryansk. Show the country how things really are here. Come right now. Tell the truth without wavering. We are waiting for you.
– Besedin concluded.
Unfortunately, the emotional Besedin never mentioned a single specific person who is pressuring him, writing complaints, and doing other bad things.
