O.K., but he is naive political man. I see that as an analyzer of policy. And I want to inform people. A seizure of Kursk region part of Russian United Democratic party Yabloko have fulfilled!
All the following is my mind. Putinmen want to inadmissibility (to unduly) party Yabloko to participate in new Russian elections in November-December of 2011. But if Putinmen will not agree with Yabloko registration as a member of the elections then this fact will make them bad image behind people of west countries. So Putinmen decided to destroy Yabloko as better variant. (It will be better for them.) Now I will tell you how this process have begun
Fedulov is well-known adventurer and swindler from Kursk. He helped for party of Putinmen many times. (Usually he did that for good money.) He tried to join into party Yabloko in Kursk. But Kuperman is old Kursk Yabloko lieder and a honest man. And first region Yablokoman said him no. So he joined in Moscow part of Yabloko.
(I suppose that Putinmen helped him in all steps of this project.) Mitrokhin is new Moscow lieder of Yabloko. He said to Kuperman that Fedulov is to become new lieder of Kursks Yabloko now. So Kuperman left party. Fedulov have became new region Yabloko lieder. He and other Putins agents can destroy Democratic Yabloko from inside now.
Who want to help me to save Kursks Yabloko by little money? I can do that because I am an analyzer of policy, a specialist of political creative plans, political advertising and a supporter of Yabloko but I have no money for this. Help us!

@vi2kasz Free from what? Oppression? There is still oppression today by the current administration, and the quality of life is waaaay worse than the Soviet times.
@azkodagama well i born after soviet collapse so i dont know about life what it was in soviet union. But this is my personal opinion becouse now im really interested in USSR times how people lived, history and all that stuff. For example Puttin still thinks that soviet collapse was the biggest mistake in russia history well im not disagree but also im not agree im just expressing my opinion and trying to understand more about USSR.
@vi2kasz well what can i say? life certainly was better for 90% of the people. Well indeed, there wasnt much freedom. But the most important thing was is that PEOPLE WERE HAPPY. Not like today, i go out sometimes and look at people at how angry they are at modern times. People weren't like that 25 years ago. Soviet Union was simply the best country in the world at the time, and Gorbachev sold the greatest country to the west.
@azkodagama People weren't like that 25 years ago? The Soviet Union was simply the best country in the world? I'm not sure you're remembering the whole situation. Perhaps it was 90% better for the people in your area, but there were a lot of places in the Soviet Union who would disagree. Perhaps Gorbachev didn't do the right thing with glasnost and perestroika, but if he hadn't the eventual collapse would have occured regardless.
@Tajarnia My area? My whole area was the entire country... everyone...EVERYONE i talked to has agreed that life during the soviet times was indeed better except ofcourse the rich ones who are making tons of money..they are denying it. But ofcourse they would, they're rich. Collapse would not have occurred if Gorbachev would be careful just like China. Look at China, they're prosperous now but they also had the same economy like the Soviet Union. Soviet Union coulve been like todays China.
@Leondorado76 i agree because him soviet union collapse hi vas weak and pathetic leader and what gorbachev do stop soviet union collapse nothing nothing at all
Well, you,Idolsofwood, continue talking to me though you said you didn`t want, may be, the reason is you, in fact, want to talk to me? Wonderful. I can help you and give you knowledge. I`m always ready to help.
I never said you were refuting my arguments because you hadn`t good counter-arguments. But you indeed attacked me as a person indeed. Return and look at your messages again. And you`ll find your words about me. That`s seen very well. In many your messages you refuted my arguments by calling them shit.
But that`s exactly what`s illogical because calling something shit proves nothing. My posts are true. You should pay more attention to the facts, my dear Idolsofwood. You can make your logic better than it is at the present moment.
Nobody`s omniscient but you indeed should learn more of logic and argumentation. And more. What are you talking about? D`you like me im some sense? So you talk to me? If you din`t like me, you wouldn`t talk to me.
You`re ready to give me your time, waste it on me - that`s because you like me? Well-well... I think, my dear, you`re a little impudent child so it`s funny as well as hilarious talking to you. Such a child completely lacks the logic that`s needed.
I never discuss the other person's intelligence but I`m ready to discuss the hystory as I`m doing in our discussion. You have an open mind so you can become logical as I hope. My dear, I really appreciate our discussions. I can help you with logic.
I`m happy about the fact you`re familiar with the hystory I was talking about but your knowledge still isn`t complete and essential enough so you should indeed learn more of the hystory. That would be fine because learning hystory can make your brain more developed.
How illogical you are ! You act as a little child. What you`re talking right now is argumentum ad hominem because you`re trying to refuse my arguments in posts by judging me as a person.
But argumentum ad hominem is a false argument indeed. You attack me as a person and say my arguments in the posts are wrong but you haven`t logical and hystorical proves of that. You shouldn`t attack me as a person but discuss the arguments
Everything you said just shows you`re merely a brainless creature. So your statements always are stupid and wrong. Indeed you`re illogical because you use argumentum ad hominem again - just look at your comments.
Everything I said in the posts is true because I mentioned the facts of the hystory and also analyzed them using logic. You say that I`m not worth your time - but you`re illogical again: if I`m not worth your time, why are you still talking to me? You indeed are illogical again. =)
I think your brain feels a bit bad today because I see a lot of senseless and illogical words in your text. What happened to you? I hope you become better. This video has the great sense on Youtube so nobody can ignore it and a lot post comments to it.
I lack logic? You certainly don't know who I am, 'cos if you did that's the last thing you'd say.
Wrong. Such a juvenile mistake. What I said wasn't an argumentum ad hominem. That would be: I attack you as a person, and therefore your conclusions are wrong. See now how yours was, and mine was only a personal attack?
Anyway, I find you quite an idiot. Calling someone who isn't illogical: illogical, when you yourself speak shit in billions of posts under one video. You're not worth my time.
So do I. But you don`t post something rational to the vid but just your argumentum ad hominem that has nothing to do both with the vid and with rationalism in general.Your statements have no sense so I say you should put what you say straight. =)
If you stated nothing - why are posting comments here? May be, the God will show you that your comments are senseless in that case (if you post them for no reason).
You can`t talk about the things related to the vid. You`re talking about a person who posted comments. I see the main reason why you can`t discuss normally is you lack a lot of knowledge, what makes a person look like an educated fool indeed.
The best pill for you is reading all my comments. Read them all, dear Idolsofwood, and your pill shall indeed work. Your brain should feel better in order to understand the simple things. =)
Because understanding something is the greatest victory so you indeed are victorious and you know the hole truth about Gorbachev. Information I mentioned for you contains a lot of the important details indeed.
Dear Idolsofwood, I feel great and don`t need any pills. But you indeed need something to fix your knowledge of the facts that took place under Gorbachev.
The Western point of view is very strange and full of double standards. Just think - if Britain breaks so that there will appear independent Scotland, independent Wales, Northern Ireland will join Ireland and we`ll have united and independent Ireland, independent little England - who would like that? Who would be happy about that?
It would be the great catastrophe in this region and would cause the greatest crisis so the new states will leave the international affairs for many years and people would be poore and unhappy because the economy will break, and there will be political chaos.
The West thinks Gorbachev is a hero because people in the West considered USSR to be the Evil Empire so they were happy about the collapse and the American president said to the Americans on television in 1991 that was their victory, so did the director of CIA.
Thinking the collapse was for good is like thinking someone`s death is for good because such words are cruel to the deadman and his relatives so what you think of the collapse is cruel to people of the post - Soviet states. You said people were captives in the Union. But you`re wrong. According to sociology studies, over 70 % people in the post - Soviet countries wish the Union to rebuild at present.
The only reason that didn`t happen is political elite of the former Soviet republics because elite is power hunger, but not common people who support the idea of the Union. And that was merely a fairy tale in the West that Sovit Union would nuke someone. The Soviet leaders weren`t stupid as Americans weren`t so those nuclear threats were merely a part of the political game as the whole arms race was
If you know history, it was Americans who created the nuclear weapon first so the Soviets should followed them, especially after the event that took place in Japan - I hope you remember what Americans did to Japan - was it good? No.
So it`s a big question who was an Evil Empire - US or USSR. USSR never used its nuclear weapon against a country. USA used against Japan. And, without USSR, we have this criminal state - USA - that used the nuclear weapon in the past, and occupies Iraq and Afganistan at present.
So it`s a big question whether the collapse of USSR was good even in the Western point of view or bad in it. Becuase Germany and France want to have such an ally to prevent some USA actions as we saw many times since the Iraqi war. Spain signed an agreement with Russia in order to create a new security system in Europe which doesn`t include USA. So, from the international point of view, the collapse of USSR wasn`t so good because many countries think they need a strong USA rival.
USSR was the rival and new Russia is becoming such a rival but it still must return thr control in the post - Soviet states in order to be such a country what it`s doing at the present moment in order to become the greatest superpower again.
It was Gorbachev who destroyed the multipolar world and we should rebuild it again. And the collapse also caused the great chaos in all the post - Soviet states because that was the greatest crisis in all the areas of society so most people lived below the so - called poverty level in the post - Soviet states - d`you think it was good?
It was far worse than the present financial crisis or even than the Great Depression in USA in the 30s so I don`t think the peoples of the former Soviet republics suppose it`s good what happened to them.
Gorbachev had an ability of rebuilding the Soviet system without its collapsing as he himself said but he made the huge mistakes so he caused that collapse and all the consequences of it we still have all over the world - yes, it influenced the whole world in bad way as I already said so I wouldn`t find his actions good in any case.
He could change political regime and make it far more democratic without collapsing. The Union`s collapsing was the greatest tragedy in the 20th century Russian history. It caused 1000% inflation and 25% unemployment so that a lot of people lived below the so-called poverty level
History lesson; The USSR was collapsing already. Fact is is that you can't hold people captive who don't want you there! Gorbachev did the right thing. Do you still want the threat of bombs hanging over you? Didn't think so.
In 90s, US thought Russia completely lost but its weakness in 90s was mainly caused by the transition from the plan economy to the market one. The process is still continuing but economy already is far better. And the dissolvation of the Soviet Union was a result of the battle for power between the center and the republics and dividing power and economy among the former Soviet elite people as I already said.
The only reason is that USA never won in the cold war and the war oficcially finished in 1989 before the collapse , if you know the history. The Union collapsed because of the internal reasons I mentioned below. Of course, Russia had the giant decrease in economy after the collapse so it was weak in 90s. But Putin`s rule brought about the relative stability and the Russian position in the foreign affairs became stronger.
The Americans think the collapse of the Soviet Union took place because of their actions and believe it was their victory in the cold war. If it`s so, why does new Russia still have the nuclear power? Why is Russia an independet state and not occupied by the Americans like Iraq?
Dividing power and national economy among the former CPSU elite in the Soviet republics was the main reason for the collapse of USSR but it became possible only because of the center`s weakening and that`s because Gorbachev was incompetent leader: a lot of the empty and beautiful words he always said and no useful actions at the same time.
Of course, there also were some nationalistic sentiments their leaving the Union also was based on, so that common people of the republics could support their elite.
So, the dissolvation of the Soviet Union was a result of the battle for power between the center that became far weaker at that time and the republics which wanted independence from the center because their elite wanted to have all the power - why should they be second in Moscow under Gorbachev and the Soviet rule if they could leave the Union and became first in their republics?
Without supressions, the Baltic states wanted to leave the Union first and the rest followed them. Gorbachev was trying to create a new Union but failed because of the struggle for power with Yeltsin. Gorbachev lost and the republics elite won, leading to the collapse and the parade of the sovereignity.
But the destructive reforms of Mikhail Gorbachev led to weakening and the downfall, especially when he took away the right of Communists to be the only ruling party in the country and took away supression of the communist ideology.
But that right couldn`t be used because of the strength of the center. So all the post - Soviet states have their freedom at present thanks to the Soviet constitution of 1977. If there had been no such a constitution, they wouldn`t have left the Union. They`d still be some provinces of USSR or Russia (depending on a name the state would have).But they couldn`t leave while the center was strong.
I`ve just read information on the downfall of USSR. It wasn`t a Russian thinker who wrote that book, it was an American and he said that the collapse of the Soviet Union was mainly caused by the internal reasons. The main reason for the collapse was the national - territorial division of USSR existed since Lenin`s time and there was a right of republics to leave the Union as it was claimed in the Soviet constitution
and we havn`t still found a solution to many problems we had under Gorbachev though some problems were fixed by Putin (but not all of them). A lot of Russians suppose that Gorbachev destroyed the Union by purpose for money or for some other reasons. I hate him! Let him burn in hell !
Is Gorbachev a hero? I don`t think so. Yes, he helped Germany and it got united. Let Germans make him a hero which he`s not ! But his actions caused the collapse of the Soviet Union, his motherland so that the Russian people had total chaos in the 90s in the political life as well as in economy.
Idiot, he introduced so many good policies for the soviet union, he gave more rights. Kept peace between the east and west. Pulled troops out of Afghanistan, The introduction of genuinely competitive elections for a legislature with real power (a decision, taken in 1988 and implemented in 1989, marking the point at which liberalisation turned into democratisation,
@TheUkr2011 He did a ton of shit and your so ignorant that you overlook it because he was in office when the soviet union dissolved. It was going to happen anyways

Dividing power and national economy among the former CPSU elite in the Soviet republics was the main reason for the collapse of USSR but it became possible only because of the center`s weakening and that`s because Gorbachev was incompetent leader: a lot of the empty and beautiful words he always said and no useful actions at the same time.

Of course, there also were some nationalistic sentiments their leaving the Union also was based on, so that common people of the republics could support their elite.

So, the dissolvation of the Soviet Union was a result of the battle for power between the center that became far weaker at that time and the republics which wanted independence from the center because their elite wanted to have all the power - why should they be second in Moscow under Gorbachev and the Soviet rule if they could leave the Union and became first in their republics?

Without supressions, the Baltic states wanted to leave the Union first and the rest followed them. Gorbachev was trying to create a new Union but failed because of the struggle for power with Yeltsin. Gorbachev lost and the republics elite won, leading to the collapse and the parade of the sovereignity.

But the destructive reforms of Mikhail Gorbachev led to weakening and the downfall, especially when he took away the right of Communists to be the only ruling party in the country and took away supression of the communist ideology.

But that right couldn`t be used because of the strength of the center. So all the post - Soviet states have their freedom at present thanks to the Soviet constitution of 1977. If there had been no such a constitution, they wouldn`t have left the Union. They`d still be some provinces of USSR or Russia (depending on a name the state would have).But they couldn`t leave while the center was strong.

I`ve just read information on the downfall of USSR. It wasn`t a Russian thinker who wrote that book, it was an American and he said that the collapse of the Soviet Union was mainly caused by the internal reasons. The main reason for the collapse was the national - territorial division of USSR existed since Lenin`s time and there was a right of republics to leave the Union as it was claimed in the Soviet constitution

and we havn`t still found a solution to many problems we had under Gorbachev though some problems were fixed by Putin (but not all of them). A lot of Russians suppose that Gorbachev destroyed the Union by purpose for money or for some other reasons. I hate him! Let him burn in hell !

Is Gorbachev a hero? I don`t think so. Yes, he helped Germany and it got united. Let Germans make him a hero which he`s not ! But his actions caused the collapse of the Soviet Union, his motherland so that the Russian people had total chaos in the 90s in the political life as well as in economy.

Gorbachev was a miracvle on cold war time.. I think that we was much better than the others, 'coz he took a look at the mistakes of ex-URSS

Yes, the same as Hitler. Only Hitler to kill and destroy other people's countries. And Gorbachev destroyed and killed his country.

Idiot, he introduced so many good policies for the soviet union, he gave more rights. Kept peace between the east and west. Pulled troops out of Afghanistan, The introduction of genuinely competitive elections for a legislature with real power (a decision, taken in 1988 and implemented in 1989, marking the point at which liberalisation turned into democratisation,
