Zhanna Nemtsova: The virus of freedom
On dictatorships, those in power expect you to not only provide no resistance, but also to promote all government decisions as positive ones. Meaning that one indirectly participates in the government crap. To say no to that is less of a political but more of a moral question. If one refuses to become a silent accomplice, he or she will automatically become an opponent of the regime – even if one refuses to use physical force against the regime. This refusal causes inevitable problems and difficulties for those who speak up.
