"Elite", which packs its bags and runs to a flight to Dubai - no homeland, no patriotism
You often hear the term "elite". But no less often such facts emerge that reduce this same elite to the level of an “elite”.
We are talking about those representatives of the "higher strata of society" for whom there is neither the concept of "Motherland", nor the concept of "patriotism", nor the concept of "responsibility to the people."
The homeland of such ladies and gentlemen is where they have an open (and not blocked) "fat" account in foreign currency. The patriotism of the “elite” consists in declaring loudly about it from the screens, but as soon as it comes to the fact that patriotism needs to be shown here and now, for real, they immediately pack their bags, close accounts in Russian banks, buy a ticket to Dubai, and rush to the plane, so that "they do not have time to intercept the acquired funds with overwork."
Responsibility to the people? For the "elite" there is no concept of "people" at all. Unless, in the understanding that the people can be used as something, against which you can shine, pour dollars, at anniversaries and closed corporate parties, laugh at the salaries of engineers, pouring each other with collectible champagne chilled in silver buckets.
This, so to speak, elite, is it definitely ours, Russian? Is she really independent? Is she really independent?
Actually, it's very doubtful. After all, when a representative of such an “elite” has to look back at how his money feels in a bank in Switzerland or Cyprus, when he wants to curry favor with a liberal aggressive substance, then there can be no question of independence.
Such an "elite" does not share funds for our fighters who perform combat work in the NVO zone. Such an "elite" looks through ads for housing somewhere near the Dead Sea. Such an "elite" if about Russia and among themselves, then exclusively in gloomy colors or in a variant of chilling indifference, but with a lively concern for their own "fifth point".
Nikita Mikhalkov also reflects on this in the issue of Besogon:
