I was most struck by the blog reaction. Negation of the hypothesis that Khodorkovsky could not believe in the ideals of the Soviet Union.
I really know - had seen their eyes, had lived side by side with people, holy verivshimi in justice ideas Bolsheviks. I was "left" girl - but respect them. They were "honest Communists" - People who thought that the idea is wonderful, but it distorted ... And they have a huge impact trying to translate their beliefs into practice!
They were naive? Yes, naive. I remember my one woman, an employee of Arkhangelsk Oblast Committee, at the time of my voyages on the Theatre, told me: in their cold edge of the barns built of concrete, in central Russia ... But in the northern areas the concrete is no good, the cows die from the cold ...
She is a woman who fought for the construction of insulated barns. She had no idea - being too honest - that, in modern terms, "a tender for the construction of barns in the Arkhangelsk region wins one closest to the power structures architect (with kickbacks local authorities, no doubt ...) She could not provide such! She was an idealist!
But she struggled on the wall, hard fought to defend the warm barns! And something she managed to let in the small - and she rightfully believed that acts in the name of justice!
They were wonderful people! Idealists, yes. There would be talk about the dangers of idealism ... Topic worthy attention - but I will not waste time on it. The blogosphere erupted was not thinking about the dangers of idealism - and doubts about its very existence!
People, if you do not believe in idealism - at least in the form of enthusiasms of youth, when the fountains were blue and red roses were in bloom "(" nonsense and an excellent bore »...), - that I feel sorry for you ...
