A mysterious ballet in the sphere of Russial culture. A sketch of the Russial criminal sub-culture.
Today, January 13, 2021, in the morning, one of the famous ballet figures spoke on the radio.
Once, on the advice of friends, he created an account for himself on one of the social networks.
He is now seeking support from side of influented media.
How is his situation similar to the situation with the historian Sokolov (in our personal opinion)?
1. Events develop quite unexpectedly. The account of a famous figure was suddenly hacked. Some important information blocks were irreversibly removed from the content.
2. The attack is clearly collective in nature.
3. When describing the situation, the name of Medinsky pops up. The ballet figure is grateful to him for his support, for the caring attitude towards the ballet figure and towards a culture. Some deleted information was associated with the name of Medinsky.
4. At this stage, the famous ballet figure is a successful person. Sokolov was also successful - up to a certain point. But the famous ballet figure feels psychological discomfort ... Why? Why? Where will all this lead?
How does the situation with the participation of a famous ballet figure differ from the story with the historian Sokolov?
A) The ballet figure is actively seeking support in the media circles.
He begins to remember both Margot and the meetings with her in the highest realms at the highest meetings.
The ballet figure calls the host of the radio program using the diminutive form of the first name; such a manner demonstrates social closeness, gentleness, and excellent relationships.
The radio host prefers to endure. Doesn't notice these liberties of behaviour. The weights of interlocutors are not comparable, but a style of benevolence and friendliness must be showed at this moment of this history.
However, judging by the reaction of the host of the radio program none of the influential acquaintances of the ballet figure does not seek to get, to jump into the situation. (The host advises, mainly, to understand the specifics of the position of public figures and not to take events to heart; but spectators are not watching the excited cries of the host about the need to find and approximately punish internet hackers),
The radio host even offered that the guest (seeking support against the attack) read the poems of young Stalin in Georgian ... The guest recited verses ... An experience - it's an experience ...
The Sokolov story taught everyone a good lesson. The object of mysterious attacks is defenseless. The host of the radio program even specifically explained to the ballet figure who was complaining and seeking support that persons with high status do not engage in such bad things ...
Sokolov asked through the (phone) prankers for support ...
B) Sokolov gradually (forcedly?) departed from the leading central role in the movement of historical reconstruction.
The ballet figure, it seems, hopes to withstand - it seems, he is not going to retreat, to give up his positions.
What is the driving force behind the situation?
An expert political scientist with a penchant for conspiracy theories would explain the attack by the fact that at some political turn, a well-known ballet figure took a (politically) incorrect, insufficiently loyal position. Now they try him for strength. To fall him down, to overturn him, by the using of official procedures is troublesome. Isn't it easier, isn't it more economical to fall him down, to overturn him through the use of semi-legal, semi-criminal procedures? It is necessary to make sure that the object of attack turns from a dubious personality - having lost social and psychological balance - into a leader of criminal news flow. In the Sokolov case, this tactic showed the greatest efficiency.
Those who do not consider themselves to be political experts with a penchant for a conspiracy theories, those who are familiar with the details of the Sokolov case (and are interested in the Russial criminal sub-culture) can put forward an additional version.
A famous ballet figure at an important celebration plays [performes] the role of a tsar (prince, emperor, great man). After playing the role, he forgets to approach important guests and to take off his hat, to bow.
Naturally, there is a profitable financial project under the guidance of a ballet figure. The successful business is set. There is a reputation. Money channels have been orginized. Funds are received regularly and in significant amounts.
After the critical lack of understanding of the ballet figure (he didn't take off his hat in time, didn't bow in time), the moment comes to push him aside, and to transfer the profitable cultural business under the leadership of more worthy persons ....
The real circumstances in the case of the historian Sokolov became visible after a huge amount of information accumulated by dozens of journalists about him (about Sokolov), about his useful historical activities, about his women, about his business heir and his main opponent ...
This amount of information has not yet been accumulated about the famous ballet figure. The case itself (attack) is somewhere between the beginning and the culmination.
So, while there is no complete clarity on the mechanism of events and the composition of the characters ...
Maybe he will pose as a good boy, will call on, will invite, will gather for own defence an influential acquaintances, will name important people, using the diminutive form of the first name, will appear on the radio, on television - and somehow everything will be all right - without the taking away, without the robbery of the cultural business and without other dramatic consequences?
