One my foreign comrade asked me:
- Why do you not resist? Your goverment lead you to new Iron Curtain, all civic world stands against you.
- Thats the point,- I said - the best thing other countries may do to consolidate our people and to make people polite to goverment - to stand against us, to show russians that "civic world" will terror not only our "national" elite, but entire country and simple labours.

Its hard to support someone, who terrors you and resist someone, who take a little care of you same time.

Comrade had to left the conversation totally shocked. He didn't expect sanctions cause troubles to ordinary citizens in Russia.
