Day 7. My thought.
6 years ago
I decided to keep a diary like this. New day - new discoveries. Haha... Ahem. Guys, I'm going to read a monologue on topics that Express only my opinion. That is, I do not need to write that I am wrong, etc. No, of course you can, I do not forbid you, it's just not welcome. What about it? About many things. For example... Like the war. Everyone likes to talk about war. What? No? All right. Just recently I came across art, which shows such an event in Vietnam (Yes, jokes about Vietnam, Joni, etc.). So... I was thinking all the time... Why so American troops dress up. Behold... These are all the cards on the helmets, all the stickers... Well... Man, it feels like they knowingly won and came to the parade. I'm not trying to say that they did wrong. They just diluted the situation as best they could. We, for example, the guys sang songs, for example, as in the work "Vasily Terkin". Probably, there is no English version of it, I will briefly tell you that this is my favorite work about such a collective character (probably, the translation is bad... This is the character who can be said to represent the whole nation.) He's always so cheerful, not discouraged. And even when they were all bad, they slept on the ground, on the roots, he said that nothing, he was where they would be much worse. He didn't look as tough as American troops like to pretend. He was... Ordinary soldier. Like hundreds of other soldiers. And thousands... He was just trying to cheer everyone up like that. And all these decorations, stickers... What are they? Okay, I'm not gonna be too judgmental. After all, if it is, then someone likes it. If someone likes what I have to be so mean?
Too deep into the subject. You probably have any question/claim, which sounds something like this:"what do you know about the war? You weren't there, how can you talk about that?". You're right. What am I really trying to tell you? But... I read a lot of books, watched documentaries. I know what it's like... I even know something that maybe doesn't know a lot of people in this world. Why? Because we don't need to. What do I know? For example, that the Soviet troops had a tradition called "Change without looking." The soldier walked up to the other soldier and put his left hand on his pocket, and with his right hand pointed to the pocket of the soldier, saying, "let's Change without looking." It was impossible to refuse, and they changed what was in their pockets. So bullets changed on trophy objects in the form of lighters, pistol, cigarette case... Because the price of these things in war... These are unnecessary things.
And now, let's move smoothly to the topic of perception of Russian. I'm Russian. Born in Russia. And, logically, this topic is familiar and understandable to me. I don't know exactly how foreigners perceive Russians. Probably something like a drinking and Smoking nation. For you, probably, not a secret that Yes, such is. But... Have you ever wondered why? I've been thinking about it. I don't drink or smoke. I advise you... But there are guys my age and even younger who are already doing it. I asked them:"Why?", they answered me not distinctly... And I have several possible reasons: A) They just think that if they start doing it, they will look cool. B) They tried it once and liked it. C) They were simply, so to speak, drunk by friends. It almost happened to me once, but I'll tell you about it another time.
All right... Perhaps, among other countries, is not uncommon. But... Damn, that's so stupid. Don't ever do that. OK? I warned you. That is to say, he did not do and you do not advise. And while I will leave it there. I wrote for a long time. He wrote about many things and briefly. Then I will develop my thoughts, but in new Notes.
