Алмаз Браев – Autocracy vs. fake (страница 4)

In a geopolitical confrontation in this way through a corrupt person, ( oligarch?) the most important to finish off the Eurasian person like a prostitute. Anyone who is willing to sell out or give up in this way makes a conscious choice not out of conviction but out of the calculation.

Chapter VI

Father of the people

The traditional people are child people. If you know the child, it is easy to direct them. The opposition says that the autocrat was lucky with the people. This is at first glance. Any Ulugbek Khan, leader Trotsky or President of the Kyrgyz people Akayev can lose the country and the people through the fault of the child. In fact, each of these intelligent leaders lost control of the people because they played the soft, wise rule. These are facts from history. Are the same Kazakhs at the level of the Soviet people of the 30s? And this is not a coincidence because such a coincidence is dangerous for everyone. All Central Asia consists of the traditional (Zerefs) peoples. Even the Soviet government met traditionally quietly, modestly, and not noticeably. Nothing has changed, and nothing has changed even now. Everything just went back to normal today – such a life such people have always had.

Simultaneously, millions of traditional Kazakh people from the villages rushed to the big cities-administrative centers, where mostly non-Kazakhs lived because the urban population was advanced (and newcomers looked them in the mouth, how all children look at their teachers at school). A new culture has always been formed in cities. Although, any person could then and today break out of the traditional village environment and move to the city. There, everyone can learn and become the same authority as your relatives. No one would hurt. That’s what cities are for so that students look into the mouths of teachers. And looking in the mouth is a culture of almost filial deference. All traditional people look in the mouth of all authorities and teachers. It depends on education and discipline.

Kazakhs were absorbed in urban life, Soviet urbanization, and now the market has literally swallowed them.

And the Kazakhs, who are accustomed to answering only to their kind (before the clan, but not before the state – A. B) learn to answer, while only to their families. If you are lucky, the steppe people are willing to invite you to their feasts in the past and now. The lucky respected Kazakhs invite everyone to visit; this is normal to show your high level. All traditional peoples have no other reason to invite guests. This is the culture. It’s a tradition to invite guests. One doesn’t interfere with the other.

Finally, former nomads are afraid to lose, and even they do not know what. For example, competition with their relatives, neighbors, just familiar people. The child is also afraid of getting lost. That is why many Kazakh Muslims say Shukur all the time; they do not look for good from the good. So we’re good, and we say Alla Shukur!

This is still the level of prohibitions or the very first level of taboos.

Not losing face is like not losing sheep. This is such a loss. That is why the steppe people in the past are not accustomed to any other type of responsibility, except for responding to their relatives and now just acquaintances. But don’t show yourself to the rams and don’t show your status to the rams? (although, of course, this “responsibility” to friends and relatives is more like a show-off, show-offs in modern terms). So, why doesn’t Yelbasy (or Putin in the North), who is lucky with the people (the people who are afraid of losing a non-essential show-off or don’t know what), rein in their corrupt officials, or rather servants? After all, all corrupt officials are officials of their system. Do not forget that Stalin led a policy based on state ownership, and Elbasy managed the Kazakh market after the General privatization. It’s easier for him.

If the people are a child, then the people of the child must have a father.

Or the father of the people, Elbasy is the greatest authority for them. Cult and fame do not arise from scratch. The same phenomenon has been and will continue to be the case for all non-urbanized traditional peoples who are afraid of losing any crumbs that fate and history have measured out.

Corrupt officials as market participants.

And no one is rushing to repress anyone because market aggregates are somewhat different from the motives that guided Stalin. For the market needs of the market actors. In order for the market to function even in the form of a demonstration or global show-offs, market participants are needed, which means that corrupt officials are also needed as subjects. So Elbasy can take away everything from competitors if he wants to, of course (In this sense, it is much more difficult for Putin). Or maybe he will try again to raise young people around him? But then he would be alone.

The traditional world can’t live without corruption?

And in this very market, the subjects of corruption feel great. The answer is simple because the basis of tradition is family. A traditional person thinks about the family. This is the will or law of the ancestors. There’s no getting away from it.

Chapter VII

The «shukur» people

Who is our support in this swaying world?

Why only officials and pensioners are invited to local studios and TV shows.

Old people talk with a gasp and foam at the mouth about the greatness of the old times. So sweet that the viewer believes they lived there. Officials continue making excuses and are accountable. Some tongue-tied political scientists talk nonsense with a smart look. They also invite so-called local politicians… What else?

Channels would love to see a bigger fish. But the unspoken status, the traditional agreement ahead of the father not to climb into hell, leaves for joy a meeting exclusively with small fish. Officials come to the Studio as very frightened people who would not come here at all, but they must somehow portray unity with the people, time obliges, but rather the authorities force. Only an emergency of any scale guarantees the appearance of a big official by the standards of the system. This is a responsible person who should be responsible for the entire system. This official is responsible for his area of work. If he doesn't give an answer, it will be the end of his career.

But even very young faces were appearing among the Ministers. They also always seem to be scared and clamped down on something. But with talkative pensioners (aksakals) Kazakh channels were lucky. These pensioners are happy to come to light. And for what? To show yourself in the frontal place and not your knowledge at all. The more is often shown, the more authority they have. The list of registered political scientists is also narrow. But most of all, the so-called politicians smell acid. In the sense of saying the same thing for a long time and not trying to come up with something, but every time it still turns out that something went sour right in the Studio, and this person did not come only yesterday, although he came all the time or walked around the microphone for fifteen years. The same lecturers and speakers, officials, and artists. These people have passed the loyalty test, and therefore they almost live in these studios like at home.

Things aren't moving.

But is this the main thing? There can be no other in about two camps or subjects of activity as the conditional elite and conditional ordinary people. And only the presence of the elite and the rabble well shows the reason for such an eternal two-color cart. Even the same notorious Shukur, that are accused the people the presumptuous activists of Western freedoms and Western democracy, is only explained by this. Only, the question is, where did they come from? People of a different color of mind?

We come close to the question of where the marginals came from. And not in the sense of marginals like Russophiles ("vata") or great-power Imperials. But where did the steppe Democrats come from? When people of a great tradition should be divided into two camps – the elite and subordinates. Forever and ever. Not when the clock of eternity is ticking but constantly.

So, we came to people who appear, excite the crowd, exciting hopes, and quickly disappear like the same celestial meteors. Only from the meteors of heaven, a certain bright light pours. And from searchlights and scammers, otherwise, our stars cannot be called, only glare for five minutes. Why do they appear in the general pile of conditional provocateurs? Why do they break the inertia of the herd of conditional rams when no one allowed them to graze someone? In general, all traditional people believe that if someone came out into the open and shouted a message, then this person is at work. He was required to go out and tell people the news. And today, when one of the incentives is money, someone hired criers on their behalf, the money was taken, and they need to work out. We need to focus on this point. The mass of the people may be stupid. But at such a moment, everyone is a wise man because everyone judges by himself. And the average worldly wisdom says: do not twitch if you are not given an order. The second part is from humility to calling the boss: do not do anything, but do as everyone does and generally blend in with the crowd so that the wolf does not eat you, be in the center, not on edge. So, we find Shukur man together.
