Inconvenient questions for supporters of Euromaidan

It's disgusting and pointless. Limit yourself to a few questions. Frankly, you are unlikely to waste time listening to answers, because when faced with most of these questions, Euromaidanists, regardless of their level of education and awareness, begin a severe and irreversible volvulus. Which in itself is also a great achievement; and therefore ask them, ask! So:

1. Why is Turchynov, acting incompatible president and speaker, illegally appointed by the “automated” but “legally elected” Verkhovna Rada - is this normal, but the Crimean Prime Minister, appointed by no less legitimate than the Verkhovna Rada, “legally elected” by the Crimean parliament - no ?

2. Why are the leaders of mass protests in Donetsk, Lugansk, Odessa “self-proclaimed governors”, and Yatsenyuk’s Cabinet of Ministers is “the only legitimate government”?

3. Why is the “Euromaidan” with shooting, Molotov cocktails and a bunch of corpses - these are “peaceful rallies”, while the uprisings in the cities of the South-East are “aggressive extremism”?

4. Why does Sasha Muzychko calmly walk free, and those who liberated the Kharkiv Regional State Administration are persecuted by law enforcement officers?

5. Why is the armed "Right Sector" legal as self-defense of the "Euromaidan", and the Crimean self-defense units are "terrorists"?

6. Why is the strictly organized, coordinated and externally sponsored Kiev Euromaidan, as Taruta said, “an example of civic initiative, self-organization, self-sacrifice and self-supply, sincerely supported by the broad popular masses,” and tens of thousands of rallies in the South-East are “an artificially created standard scenario, caricatured copying the Maidan ", the engine of which" works at the expense of foreign citizens and citizens attracted for money "?

7. Why in Kiev it is possible to burn and shoot unarmed Berkutov and Air Force personnel, but in Kharkov it is impossible to beat the "peaceful and unarmed" invaders of the Regional State Administration?

8. Why are Russian flags at rallies and state administrations - this is separatism, and the flags of the European Union over the Maidan and official flagpoles - is "European integration"?

9. Why are the beaten Snitsarchuk and Chornovol injured journalists, and the beaten Rulev a provocateur?

10. Why are Yanukovych and Kurchenko a “family” and “oligarchs”, while Taruta and Kolomoisky are “honest businessmen who create jobs and attract investments to Ukraine” ((c) honest businessman Poroshenko)?

11. Why is a directive secession in Kosovo after a bloody conflict a democracy, while in Crimea a referendum change of status without a bloody conflict is anti-constitutional separatism?

12. Why in a country claiming to be "European" not only journalists and politicians, but even "experts" allow themselves to equate federalism and separatism?

13. Why can Ukrainian TV lie, but not Russian?

14. Why are a bunch of people running around with fetishes of "the unity and indivisibility of the country", if no one leads and can not lead any arguments in favor of indivisibility, except for raising the voice and repeating the incantation "we are one and indivisible"?

15. Why the saying “hto ne skache, that Moskal”, leaflets “Muscovites are lingering here”, the creation of a bill on languages by the hands of Farion-Matios-Yavorivsky-Koshulinsky “with the participation of” Fabrikant is not extremism or Russophobia, but a rally chanting “Russia ! Is it extremism?

16. Why is the looting and banditry of the "self-defense" "vromaidan" and the Right Sector - a "struggle for freedom", and the attempts of the inhabitants of the South-East to defend themselves - "separatism and hooliganism"?

It is unlikely that even one of these questions will be answered. Nothing wrong. But they will temporarily fall into a state of intellectual weightlessness. And you can calmly, without raising your voice, tell them that they are amazingly funny when they try to accuse the South-East and Crimea of violations of the law. After they systematically destroyed the police at the personal and system levels, there is no law in this country. After they illegally appointed Turchinov Acting President, there is no Constitution in this country. Complaining to the Avakov police about the Right Sector is like taking the position of a Jew who complains to the Gestapo about the SS for ethnic persecution. Obeying the Constitution under the Kiev junta is like adhering to the rules of good manners in a street fight with a tenfold superiority of the enemy. And if today we continue to behave like law-abiding citizens, then this is nothing more than the inertia of our good will.

And, if the supporter of "Euromaidan" does not agree with you, you can give him in the face with a clear conscience.
