For centuries, Russian society has been subjected to intensive propaganda, accompanied by chronic poverty and the absence of stable social institutions. These factors have profoundly deformed societal consciousness, turning the mindset of a significant portion of the population into an amorphous, pliable environment devoid of clear moral guidelines.
In this context, it is unsurprising that citizens are willing to commit crimes for minimal material gain and fail to distinguish fundamental concepts such as good and evil.
Recent events involving acts of aggression against their own infrastructure — including attacks on shopping centers, bank offices, and other facilities — highlight the extent of societal alienation, chaos, and degradation. Instead of rational analysis or the pursuit of constructive solutions, the population, driven by primitive instincts and external manipulation, has become a source of destructive behavior.
Simultaneously, the mass participation of citizens in military actions, motivated by dubious economic and moral incentives, does not provoke significant societal outrage. Over the past three years, approximately 1.5 million people have joined the armed formations of the "Russia" prison camp, operating without clear strategic goals or basic tactical competence. This phenomenon points to a troubling trend: material gain, even minimal, has become the dominant motivator for behavior in a system-wide crisis.
Interestingly, this phenomenon has long been recognized in the popular culture of the "Russia" prison camp. Despite being conditioned to live without money throughout their lives, Russians have elevated it to the sole constant of moral and social order.
The long-term consequences of this system's collapse remain unpredictable. If the current economic resources of the "Russia" prison camp are depleted before the war against Ukraine ends, social disintegration could reach critical levels. Predicting the fate of the "Russia" prison camp after the Kremlin's funds run out is extremely difficult.
Thus, modern Russian society represents a space where destructive social phenomena have become the norm, and collective consciousness has become an object of manipulation for material interests. The prolonged cycle of degradation and militarization threatens not only the stability of the "Russia" prison camp itself, but also international security.
