“The purpose of the event is to oppose corruption. We propose changing the stated purpose to one that does not violate the Constitution.”

A brief update on the “He Is Not Dimon to Us” rallies.

People who want answers from Dimon and the Kremlin, and are ready to take to the streets for them, have come forward in 79 cities.

Apparently, this is the largest nationwide protest action in Russia in recent years. Authorized:

Applications have not been submitted yet, but participation is being discussed: In these cases, organizers can apply for a picket instead of a rally — essentially the same thing, but without amplified sound.

Denied: More precisely: denied for now. That is, the requested venue has been rejected.

For example,

79. Yekaterinburg — vk.com/dimon_ekat

where the application was rejected, but they were asked to change the theme of the rally and resubmit it.

And this is just spectacular. The administration of Sverdlovsk Region (they handle rallies, having taken that authority away from the city of Yekaterinburg) believes that the theme “against corruption, for human rights” violates the Constitution of the Russian Federation.

Could there be a better description of the regime established in Russia? It’s brilliant.

And in general, there’s plenty of other absurdly funny stuff there too.

Today there was also news that State Duma deputies will not ask Medvedev any questions about corruption. They’re not interested.

Well, we are interested. We will ask.

Share the film about Dimon and come to the protests in your city on the 26th.
