“It’s like being in a minefield, this is the feeling you live with here [in Russia]. It’s very hard to build any kind of prospects – in life, in your profession, in your career – if you are not plugged in to the values of the system. It’s a stupid construction of society, and unfortunately the eternal curse of our territory. The ideas of the rule of law, of equal rights are hardly discussed here. There is discussion in society, but it’s pointless. I have a feeling of the absolute futility of pretending to the right to have a say in any situation. I’ve turned 50 and I’ve never voted in my life. Because I’m absolutely certain that in our system it’s a completely pointless step.”Spot on.
Wrong. All I want is a discussion on the topic I defined in the first message of the thread.
if you are not plugged in to the values of the system.
Ok, in which way is it different in any other country? What kind of prospects can a film director make in the USA if he's not connected to political correctness, homosexual rights, foodstamps and/or any other American values?
