After latest developments in country, I'm thinking about it again. It's easiest way to escape, and harder to fight and develop. But what if I see that people just everytime say that "life is so unfair, everything could be much better" and so on, but as soon as the changes come, people are not happy again and say: "Ooh, earlier everything was so perfect!". It looks like psychology of slaves.
What's the reason to sing songs about changes, if your mind is not ready for it? It's like in 1861, when emperor Alexander II abrogated the serfdom in Russian Empire. What do you think those dependent peasants did? They supposed to run away and be happy to get independence, but they said: "No, we don't want to leave our nobles, we live pretty well here". This is a psychology which have been emerging for ages.
When this country will be satisfied? Society destroys it from inside.
I love my country, I live here almost the whole life, but sometimes can't understand the way of thinking of these people. Sometimes they are so strange. It's our uniqueness also and sometimes it's cute, but...
People want to live in the same condition and afraid of any development and improvement. Maybe it's conditional by history, mentality, politics and etc., maybe people are afraid of unpredictability of life?
But where is the generation of 90s who was fighting for freedom and changes? Where all that people who provoked, who did revolution and who built new country - Russian Federation?
Words from Viktor Tsoy song, song which reflects the spirit of those crazy times - Russia of 90s: "Our hearts are demanding for changes! It's in our laugh, in our tears and in pulsation of vein - changes, we're waiting for changes! Sigarettes are in our hands, cup of tea is on the table - this is how the circle is closing up, and suddenly it's scary to change something".
We are developing. But that revolution of 90s wasn't done till the end, I guess.
We need revolution in our minds. While the Soviet Union spirit is still alive, it'll be very hard.
