Russian "nationalism" in persons - statements of some famous people of Russia in the XVII-XX centuries
Mikhail Vasilyevich Lomonosov
Russian scientist-naturalist, encyclopedist, chemist and physicist, one of the creators of the modern Russian language. Historical Lomonosov’s views were formed in a sharp struggle against the Norman theory, which denied the independent development of the Russian people. Lomonosov sought to prove the Slavic origin of Rurik, and that the Slavs were among the peoples who inhabited the plains of southeastern Europe for a millennium before the appearance of the Varangians. Lomonosov was able to convincingly show that Miller used exclusively Western concepts and sources for his report and the entire system of evidence, ignoring Russian chronicles, as well as those materials that do not confirm his point of view. Lomonosov was correctly determined and the territory of the settlement of the Slavs. Lomonosov developed a historical concept in which he emphasized the crucial role of Orthodoxy, Autocracy and the spiritual and moral values of the Russian people in the formation of the Russian state.

“We do not rebel against coming to us and even against the cohabitation of a certain percentage of foreigners, giving them almost all citizenship rights willingly among us. We rebel only against their mass invasion, against filling their state and cultural positions with them. We are protesting against the ongoing settlement of Russia by non-Russian tribes, against the gradual weaning of our land, faith and power ... Russia's misfortune not only in government posts. No less heavy dominance of foreigners is in the field of public and private labor. Are not the most profitable trades in the hands of strangers? “So, they are more talented than the Russians, if they gain the upper hand,” they say ... What nonsense! The fact of the matter is that foreigners do not take at all by talent. They are pushed through by less noble, but more persistent qualities — insinuation, tenacity, terrible support for each other, and a boycott of everything Russian.».

“Friendly, common work based on mutual trust is the motto for all of us Russians!”
“At the same time, our harsh outskirts are rich, rich in gold, rich in forest, rich in fur, rich in vast expanses of land suitable for culture. And under such circumstances, gentlemen, in the presence of a state densely populated, neighboring us, this suburb will not remain deserted. A foreigner will suck into it, if a Russian does not come there earlier, and this trickle down, gentlemen, has already begun. If we continue to sleep with a lethargic sleep, this edge will be saturated with other people's juices, and when we wake up, maybe it will turn out to be Russian only in name. ”

In a terrible fashion Mr. Dollar, and the art of sneeze - the highest music hall. I did not even want to publish books here, despite the cheapness of paper and translations. No one here needs this.

Quotes:

About the Holocaust: "Such a separation of the suffering endured by the Jews as a kind of quite special phenomenon hurts the moral feeling".
According to Shafarevich, the Russian embodiment of the phenomenon of “small people” played a big role in the revolution in Russia. The efforts of the "small people" are destroying the "integrating mechanisms", allowing the "big people" to feel and act as a whole. They are ridiculed and become the subject of hatred: Russian history, faith, historical power, and the army. It creates a lot of anti-Russian myths inspired by the people. The people seem to be paralyzed, becoming a defenseless victim of small aggressive groups.

Quotes:
“Zionists always shouted at everyone and continued shouting:“ Anti-Semites! ” - at the moment when they are grabbed by the hand at the crime scene. "Anti-Semitism" - one of the means of protection of the Zionists, invented by them to fight with their opponents - those who do not recognize the anti-divine essence of Zionism. When monuments of the Russian national culture were desecrated and destroyed, when the most ancient books and manuscripts were burned, when the Russian people were torn away from their roots by the barbaric way, distorting their history, no one for some reason spoke of Russophobia, except for a handful of patriots, well, let alone about Zionism, God forbid, there was something to say. The genocide against the Russian people flourished and gained strength without difficulty, but it was enough for the Russian people to declare that they were Russians, that they had a rich culture and history from which they would not allow a single page to be thrown away, as frightened cries immediately sounded. on "anti-Semitism", "chauvinism", "nationalism", "anti-Sovietism". This tricky trick is designed for the uninitiated ",
"Democratic gentlemen, hurry to rise,
Come out on the court fooled masses:
Let Chernyshevsky and Herzen answer for everything
And the dreamer Belinsky and the sage Karl Marx.
Let those who came after you answer
Knock out of the people and joy, and sadness,
And free Slavs turned slaves,
And they turned Great Russia into prison! ”
