Here Yarmolnik and Fomenko arrived in Latvia, went to the radio and talked about what a terrible and stupid cattle lives in Russia (video at the end of the article).

Calmly and, apparently, out of habit, they signed for all of us in savagery and barbarism before the civilized Balts. And the point is not even that most of what was said from the 30th minute, when the talk about politics and art, just sounds crazy and has nothing to do with reality - what matters is the tone itself and undisguised contempt for Russia and Russian citizens.

For example, Yarmolnik with a blue eye claims that 90% of the supporters of "Krymnash", that is, the majority of the Russian people, will not be able to find Crimea on a geographical map. And all the supporters of traditional values that criticize contemporary art will not name 3-4 paintings by Vasnetsov, Repin, Perov … It's good that even though I didn't mention Serov, I would have sat in a puddle, given the recent queues for his exhibition at the Tretyakov Gallery. It is not even necessary to refute such statements - we are talking about open contempt and disrespect for the majority of their compatriots.

The once good humorist Fomenko went even further, stating that "we got into civilization recently and by accident," which means that one shouldn't care about the opinion of the barbaric majority about the behavior of an enlightened minority. From his half-delusional logic, it appears that Makarevich has the right to free opinion, and everyone else should shut up. He literally says: they say, they need to take away their phones, where they write applications to the police (sitting on the toilet, Yarmolnik adds), and let them sit in the stinking queue "near the bum" and try to write appeals by hand, like a cattle. When asked by the presenters that most people have such a position, Fomenko replies that we have no position - otherwise they would have already stood in the squares or smashed half of Paris like French students.

This is a highly indicative reasoning of the representatives of our bohemia, given the earlier proposed by Yampolskaya the conclusion of an agreement between cultural figures and society on the harmonization of each other's interests under the supervision of the state. What and how can one negotiate with this kind of mankurt, who despise compatriots and consider all of us undeveloped savages in the guise of a down from "our rush" sitting on a sofa, swearing? How to reach a compromise between a narcissistic minority without conscience and honor, despising the people, with the same people? What true art can there be without love for the work and the audience, for their Motherland? Is it possible to talk about the revival of Russian culture, or at least an end to the degradation of mass culture, when its figures openly hate those with whom they were born in the same country?
