  • As a guy who likes movies by Baskova unironically, I want to post that quote from the most famous russian trash movie incl. necrophilia and coprophagia called The Green Elephant. It sounds just like him. It’s said by a prison guard who lost his marbles after observing a total moral degradation of arrested soviet soldiers in caprivity circa 1980s:

    I am on a horse. You are on a white horse, and I am on a white horse. And then we come to the ball. And then a salute… in our honor. A salute in our honor. First at the parade, and then we will go to the officers’ club. There will be a ball. Beer. Salute. A salute in honor of us. I am a colonel and you are on a white horse. Can you hear me? Look at my uniform! Look at the stars it has! I have never showed it for anyone else. I’ll just show you. Look! This is my dress uniform. I had it made especially for me! Look, don’t be afraid! Shoulder straps? I’ll change them! Here they are, the shoulder straps. Here! The real ones! Do you see? Colonel. I am a colonel. I will wear them to the parade. This is my uniform. The cleanest. Why are you coughing? We’ll go to the officers’ club, drink some beer - and don’t be afraid. I am with a sabre, on a white horse, commanding the parade! I am a colonel! I command the parade! I am with the stars! On the white horse! I am a colonel! I command the parade!

  • While I get that security certifications (and existing contracts with the right people!), the slowness of such laws ans disdain for prisoners, especially doing their law research, are big factors, I see a point that even prison admins shall consider. Besides big cuts in spending on capable clients, opening the ability for inmates to write whatever they want in a word processor as easily as it can be is a plus to the surveiliance. Authocracies of today don’t ban their own social medias because an illusion of privacy makes people snitch on themselves.
