AGAIN "ALREADY"? ..
The result of the study on the study of the mood of Russians in terms of social expectations was a statement by VTsIOM with the following content:
At the same time, the study does not consider the question of how the Russians (you and I) prepare for this “deterioration”: lying on the couch with folded hands and rolling their eyes, or on shopping trips to buy salt, matches, or “on rainy day "- the third TV and the fifth refrigerator? .. Or maybe the preparation consists in digging shelters and additional spinning of cucumbers? ..
Research question № 2934:
79% of the respondents answered this question: “Everything is fine”, “Everything is good” and “Everything is fine”. For comparison, this is significantly higher than in the period 2009-2013 (on average, less than 60%). At the same time, the answers “Everything is bad” and “Everything is terrible” was noted by 18% (the rest abstained from a definite answer) of the respondents. In 2009-2013, an average of 32% of respondents were “horrified” by the situation in the country.
Despite this, VTsIOM reports that "people are preparing for the worsening situation in the country." Rather strange conclusions of experts, given that 79% is still more than 18% ... Or in the situation under consideration, it is precisely 18% of those who are "horrified" that everyone else needs to focus on. Of course, the opinion of each respondent is interesting in its own way, but in such a way as to draw such far-reaching conclusions from a fairly modest percentage - hmm ...
Another question (or rather, the answer to it) in the study on the social expectations and moods of Russians confirms the thesis that the conclusions of VTsIOM, to put it mildly, are strange ... Is it really "ALL PROPALO" again? ..
Question:
Here the answers “Everything is fine”, “Everything is good” and “Everything is excellent” is given by 88% of the respondents. The answers “Everything is bad” and “Everything is terrible” was given by 10% of the respondents.
So what exactly is the “deterioration” of the mood? Apparently, in order to clarify their theses, VTsIOM employees cite a social investigation number 2935 with some frankly radical formulation of the question: "Russia-Ukraine: abyss or takeoff?" They say, either “heaven” or “hell” - the third is not given ... The very wording of the survey does not seem to imply a middle option, which is also quite difficult to explain, given that the division into black and white (without shades) - by definition, cannot be the task of the sociological monitoring service.
However, the questions themselves in social research № 2935 they look calm enough, as they say, without fanaticism and outright "yellowness" they no longer give it away ... And here the answers of the Russians surveyed make it clear that for the majority, the Ukrainian topic, as they say, has a pain in the heart, and this is more than understandable.
Question:
The answer "tense" and "hostile" was given by 67% of the respondents (a record of all recent months and years), while only 8% assess such relations positively.
Indeed, it is difficult to assess Russian-Ukrainian relations with a plus sign, when Ukraine has recently become associated exclusively with the obscurantists of the Poroshenko, Yatsenyuk, Turchynov, Lyashko formations, with the right-wing "storm troopers" and other Maidan bydlomass. It is difficult to perceive the presence of adequate people behind all this putrid substance, and in fact there are millions of them even in the presence of endless anti-Russian and even anti-Russian propaganda in Ukraine. These are the very adequate people who realized the mega-divorce of themselves with tales of sweet European life and manna from heaven from American "friends". These are the people who understand that Ukraine is used only as a springboard for pressure (including military) on Russia - a country that has common roots with Ukraine, common traditions, in fact, one people.
It would seem that the sentiments of Russians about the Ukrainian crisis have been revealed, and therefore VTsIOM can “cover up” its research tool. But no ... The Center decides to ask the Russians (and there were 1600 people from 46 regions of the Russian Federation involved in the survey), do they need, in their opinion, Russia's support for the Donbass militias? At the same time, the question as if in passing makes it clear that "on the altar" lies "the normalization of relations with Ukraine and the West."
Question:
Considering all the previous conclusions of VTsIOM on poll # 2934 and # 2935, vague doubts crept in: is it going to ask the Center for the Study of Public Opinion after this question about this: “Isn't it possible to give Crimea and Sevastopol back to Kiev in order to improve relations with Ukraine and West? " Well, if we started to interrogate, then we had to go all the way and declare that “precisely because of the support of Donbass and the acceptance of Crimea and Sevastopol into Russia,“ many ”Russians began to feel a drop in optimism” ...
Such a survey was not followed, but the very fact that a state company is asking whether it is necessary to support Donbass or not is not even a bell, but a bell ...
So the results are:
11% of those surveyed said that it was time to completely curtail support for the militias. And this position is most actively expressed by young people aged 18 to 25 years. 58% of respondents are categorically against curtailing support for the Donbass militia. As you can see, the ratio is "one to five" (1: 5), but tomorrow statistics services can provide us with 1 to 2, and the day after tomorrow, 5 to 1 ...
These results are a hint that it is time for the statistics services to adjust public opinion to the “new standards” using various methods and tools?
