Minsk Resident: We Frightened Away The 3% One Pretty Good

At a decisive moment, there must be a lot of us, hundreds of thousands, the whole country.

A reader of the "Basta!" telegram channel from Minsk suggests involving our friends, relatives and acquaintances in the protests more actively.

"Sasha acts clumsily, without thinking about the consequences, how it looks from the outside, - he writes. - Now he's like a cornered beast, thinking only about one thing - saving his own skin.

He has other things to worry about, but not about playing some sophisticated game under such conditions.

First, he removed Tsikhanouski and Statkevich from the chessboard. Looked at the reaction of people. Are they silent? Then we can continue. Sneaky threw Babaryka behind bars. They're silent. Okay, let's keep going. Yesterday, the figure of Tsepkala was brashly stolen from the board. Yeah, they're silent anyway!

In a week he'll steal another figure - it may make the cut. And he'll be doing so till there are only ponces left on the board?

We need to beef up the multitude and be ready to take to the streets. Even those relatively small protests, held on June 18-20 in the cities of Belarus, "scared" the already nervous three-percent cockroach quite well. Today, we rattle pots from the windows, dispersing insects with loud music, collecting strength and anger. But without taking to the streets in the near future, there will be nothing. Flash mobs, bicycle races, partisan rallies, graffiti - it's all preparation for the street. Let's actively encourage friends and acquaintances, involve those who are not yet involved in the protest, so that at a decisive moment there will be a lot of us, hundreds of thousands, the whole country.
