"The history of Ukraine for children" as a reference stone of modern Russophobia
Most citizens of countries surrounding Ukraine today with some indifference are watching the rapid decline not only of the economy, ideology and culture in this state. We see a rapid change in the essence of the Ukrainians. The revival of the most vile and most disgusting trait - the betrayal of any ally, exactly when the union ceases to pay dividends to Ukraine and Ukrainians. This is clearly seen today in relations not only with Russia, but with all its neighbors. Perhaps, there is not a single country that is within the "reach of" Ukraine, which would not be criticized by either the state or the independent people.
After the publication of the previous article, more precisely, after getting acquainted with the opinions of readers on the topic raised, the authors had the idea of continuing the conversation about the origins of anti-Russian, and other anti- in Ukraine. Probably, this will surprise some, but we continue to consider Ukrainians as part of the Russian people. We continue to think that the healthy part of the Ukrainians will eventually win. But today, as it is not regrettable, we continue to exist as one people only with Belarus.
The origins of Russia's strength in her stories. For centuries we have resisted the attempts of colonization and capture both from the west and from the east. We have learned at the genetic level to understand our interests, to understand how the modern world works. We learned to fight for ourselves. If you want, we have learned to be a people.
And, accordingly, we consider those who live side by side and equally share with us all this struggle, just like us. Not in appearance, not in language or tradition, in fact. In essence. By the ability to be a people. However, in this case, the question arises about Ukraine. Why? How many people from this country have remained in the history of Russia for centuries. Writers, scientists, generals, designers ... Hundreds of prominent names in their field.
Today the situation is really not in our favor. Russophobia becomes an integral part of life in Ukraine. And, as a result, a convenient way to justify everything that happens there. But more and more often, unwillingly you ask yourself the question: why is that so? Why is Russia and its inhabitants a sort of cesspool for Ukrainians into which absolutely everything can be dumped?
We unexpectedly found the answer to this question in the history of Ukraine. In the story that has long been laid in the heads of Ukrainian children. That story, which forms a person, becomes the foundation for building personality.
Many of us are still convinced that a negative attitude towards Russians and Russia has been cultivated in Ukraine after the collapse of the USSR. And it reached its peak after the last Maidan. We often hear and read in the comments of readers about the amazing metamorphosis that occurred with the Ukrainians. Suddenly and immediately! Alas, such an opinion is wrong. The lack of information led the majority to the wrong construction of the whole chain of reasoning in the future.
Most of us never even thought about a simple question. Why, for example, after the dismissal from the ranks of the USSR Armed Forces, retirees sought to move to the USSR? A simple but interesting question. And the answer?
He is also simple. Remember the provision in Ukraine during the Soviet era? No one has ever concealed that it was higher than in Russia. Ukrainians, arriving in Russian cities were amazed at the lack of much, which was the norm for Ukraine. Why are there software. Look at your own cottage. Why didn't you build a two-story cottage? Salary allowed. Prohibited. But not in Ukraine. I will not even talk about climate. From here came another myth of the USSR. Ukraine breadbasket! Nurse of the whole Union.
Exactly in this it is necessary to look for the origins of anti-Russian sentiment in Ukraine. The deterioration of the economic situation in the USSR became the basis on which Ukrainian nationalism was revived. The one that was cultivated by the Ukrainian elite at the beginning of the last century. Nationalism, originally built on betrayal. Everyone and everyone. For the sake of Ukraine.
Simply put, the cult of Judas began to be laid in the heads of Ukrainians already at the state level. Or mazepovschina, if you like. Today they are trying to give us a "simplified version" of Ukrainians. The whole problem is in the language. However, this view is easily destroyed after watching any video of training Ukrainian nationalists. In this environment, an inexplicable paradox for many, sounds Russian! And much more often than mova.
Alas, but mazepovschina lies elsewhere. Not in the love of the language, not with the traditional cult of bacon or galoshes, not in the Ukrainian borsch ... Mazepovschina is a betrayal! Conscious betrayal of their own culture, their own identity, of themselves, ultimately. Mazepovschina in the creation of an anti-Russian state.
To understand this fact, just look into the recent past. At a time when the Union was cracking at the seams, but holding on. In 1990 year. It was this year that the Ukrainians received a “new” history of Ukraine. More precisely, the Ukrainian children received a “new story”. Yes, and it can be called conditionally. This story is written for Ukrainian children by the writer Anton Lototsky back in 1934 year.
The very identity of this writer is quite interesting. During the First World War, Lototsky volunteered to join the army of the Austro-Hungarian Empire in the so-called Legion of the Ukrainian Sich Riflemen (OSS). He was a foreman in this legion. He participated in battles with the Russian army. He actively collaborated with the ideological, cultural and educational department of the OSS. Ardent Ukrainophile.
However, this did not prevent him from remaining in Ukraine after the end of the war and even becoming a teacher at the Rohatyn gymnasium. But during the Second World War, Lototsky chose to remain in the occupied territory and lived quite comfortably during this period. Cooperated or did not cooperate with the fascists, history is silent. But he published his books ... After the liberation of Ukraine from the fascists (1944 d) he lived in a Lviv nursing home, where he died.
Let's leave Pano Lototsky for the time being and deal with his “History of Ukraine for Children”. Junior and secondary school age. Already in four volumes.
Honestly, we have mastered only two volumes.
The whole problem is that Lototsky was a really good children's writer. And his books differed very decent circulations and respected. Fairy tales can be read altogether.
But there is so much Russophobia that you just wonder how suddenly a man sneaked on Russia.
The illustration of M. Fartuh “Muscovites are ruining Kiev” to the description of the capture of Kiev in 1169, just from the “History ...” of Lototsky. 1936 edition of the year
Yes, it was. Kiev really captured the neighbors. But why did the inhabitants of the Vladimir-Suzdal principality, which the author regards as a separate ethnos, suddenly become “Muscovites”? If you look at any history, Moscow will become the capital of the princely capital (not the capital of all Russia) in almost a hundred years. Be patient a couple of quotes?
"The son of Yuri Dolgorukiy - Prince Andrei Bogolyubsky - had already become a stranger to Ukraine, and, sitting in Suzdal and Moscow, looked enviously at Kiev, that he was such a great city. Finally, 10 in March of 1169, he and his army attacked Kiev and took it. He killed all the people of Kiev, and took the women into captivity. He robbed the church and took the icons with him. Since then, Kiev has fallen into disrepair for many centuries and has lost its long-standing meaning "
"Yuri Dolgoruky created a separate state in the north. Finnish people from the Chud tribe inhabited that state, and he brought many more Ukrainians from the north of Ukraine. With this huddle of people, a new nation and a new state, called Moscow, began to be born. Moscow, which was laid by the same Yuri, the son of Monomakh. The descendants of Yuri Dolgoruky, although they came from the Ukrainian kind, then became Ukraine’s biggest enemies "
It is very difficult to say where the relevant authorities looked in 1936, and why Lototsky was not put on Solovki. Apparently, the NKVD books did not read him.
Special mention deserves the history of Khmelnitsky. Long could not understand why Bogdan Khmelnitsky is still a national hero. He signed a contract with the Muscovites and all that. Thanks, enlightened knowledgeable Ukrainians. Based on the same "History ...".
So, Bogdan Khmelnitsky is a hero. He created a separatist and independent Ukraine. And he fought for her independence. With all who have attacked her.
True, he modestly keeps silent about Khmelnytsky’s curtsies with the Tatar Khan Islyam III Giray, who notably plundered Ukraine, but these are trifles. In principle, Khmelnitsky paid for it in 1649, when the allies simply betrayed him for Polish gold and pastures.
But Khmelnytsky’s actions are interpreted as simply an allied treaty with Russia, nothing more. Ukraine was free and independent. Hence, Bogdan Khmelnitsky is definitely a national and national hero.
Well, we are not against this interpretation.
But Yuri (Yuras) Khmelnitsky, his son - a clear traitor. But not because he changed his father’s treaty, betrayed Sheremetev’s troops and took the oath to the Polish king. Not because he accepted the pro-Turkish sentiments of the ataman Doroshenko and in fact became a Turkish protege in Ukraine.
The main betrayal of Yuri is the signing of Pereyaslavsky articles, which severely limited the liberty of the Cossacks.
Normal Ukrainian approach, normal understanding of the essence. Everything that is being done against the Muscovites is for the good. And do not care about everything else, because it was all done for the benefit of Ukraine. A Polish or Turkish sabers - it makes no difference.
By the way, besides publication in 1936 in Lviv and Ivano-Frankivsk, “History” was also published in 1942 and 1943 in Lviv and Krakow. What in general gives an excellent picture to understanding the essence of the content.
Mr. Goebbels in his ranks did not keep idiots and "chopped chip".
Well, as soon as the smell of "Square", and in general lepotas began.
Even before. The first reissue of "History ..." was held in 1990 year. In Ternopil, as in the historical homeland of Lototsky. And then the triumphal procession of the book began in all the cities of independent Ukraine. It's easier to say where it was not published.
For the sake of justice, we note that ours did not lag behind. The publishing house "Phoenix" in Moscow, in 1993, also published the "History ..." in Russian.
In general, Ukrainian experts estimate the circulation of "History ..." in 3,5-3,8 million copies.
On the example of the “History of Ukraine for Children”, Lototsky clearly shows how at a young age one can form a hatred of “Moskals”, a cult of betrayal for the sake of a “high idea”. Thinking readers have already seen the essence of such education. And some of the "mine", which was laid at the same time. Mina, which should break the state. Paradox? By no means ...
Hatred of Russians, according to Ukrainian nationalists, should have led to the persecution of Russians in Ukraine. However, the nationalists have forgotten the simple truth. The Soviet Union was a state of internationalists. Maybe not ideological, but internationalists. Worked perfectly debugged "system of mixing" of the peoples. The system of turning people into a "single Soviet people."
From here, the persecution of Russians in Ukraine resulted in a completely unexpected form for nationalists. It turned into a persecution of Ukrainians. Ukrainians as part of the very Soviet, and therefore the Russian people. Here they are where the 30 silver coins of Judas surfaced. Here it is, the very “mine” that was laid by Lototsky.
Boys and girls who were brought up on the "History ..." Lototsky today under and for 30. That they are now fighting volunteers in the Donbas. It is they who adopt the idiotic laws in the Rada. It is these descendants of Judah who are today methodically and consistently killing Ukraine. And they are no longer reeducated. How not to re-educate their children. Hatred and betrayal became part of their nature. Part of them themselves.
Partly because, from an early age, it was precisely this thought that was hammered into the head: there was no good from the Russians. And the second: if you need to betray for the sake of the idea of Great Ukraine, betray.
It is clear to any sensible person that the Armed Forces of Ukraine will never be stronger than the Russian army. And, therefore, Ukraine will never achieve a military victory over Russia. It is also clear that any, we emphasize any, relations with Russia is harmful for the Ukrainian state. This leads to the “extinction” of Ukrainian statehood as such. A limb cannot exist separately from the body. You can say even harder - a vampire cannot live without someone else's blood.
The destruction of the system of social guarantees, the destruction of the health care system, civil war, the destruction of industry and agriculture, whose hands is this business? Russians? No, the Ukrainians themselves did and continue to do. Those Judah children.
Has life become better for Ukrainians? Increased pensions, wages? There is more order on the streets? Maybe crime has disappeared? Has science flourished? Can anyone even call the real Ukrainian "Peremog"? It is not necessary for Jewish children from among those brought up on new Ukrainian history textbooks. Strange? Ukrainians do not need Ukraine!
At the end of the article it is necessary to return to what we have already written about many times. Alas, but that fraternal Ukrainian people, which we know, live out their last years. Lives in the literal sense of the word. Purely for biological reasons. People are mortal. And their life is limited. And those who are now 30 plus or minus are no longer brothers. Just citizens of a neighboring state. And the Russian brothers will never be. Today it is the enemy. Perhaps, if Ukraine is lucky to survive as a single country, in the future we will become just neighbors. But brothers ...
Many may fairly note that the "Stories ..." in terms of circulation and exposure to "Mein Kampf" or the "History of the CPSU" is very far away. We agree. But this is just a stone in the foundation of Russophobia, a stone that is laid in the soul and head of a child from an early age.
And then there are more serious works. In which, by the way, references to Lototsky is complete. And we will come to them very soon, we will introduce.
