Fuck, when I was very small guided by all kinds of New Year's trees, the performances usually always ended with the question of Santa Claus: "Well, what will the children forgive grandmother Yagu / Koshcha / Karabas-barabas Y. T. D.? " (I need to emphasize)
I have always spoken NO! Because it is tired, every year the same, to forgive them and they will be tormented again in a year.
And once still managed to get the crowd, so as not to forgive grandmother Yaga, but the actors still twisted and forgave her again.
And then I realized that public opinion does not influence political decisions.
