I’m starting to see a certain elegance even in some manifestations of arbitrariness and lawlessness.
Look: Prosecutor General Chaika personally is stripping candidate Lyaskin of immunity because candidate Lyaskin published a leaflet saying that Prosecutor General Chaika is a gangster and a corrupt official.
And the portraits—his own, Putin’s, and the rest of the gang’s—he refers to as “images of recognizable persons on the leaflet ‘They’ve completely lost it; this should not be happening’.”
Today at 1:30 p.m. a decision will be handed down on what to do with the print run of Lyaskin’s leaflets (the prosecutor’s office and the election commission, of course, are demanding that they be destroyed). I very much hope the judge writes exactly this in the ruling, to complete the elegance of the whole construction: Yes, they’ve completely lost it. So what?
