I didn't have the time to go to Meshchanskiy Court today - but the latest news is that all those who were wearing Khodorkovsky t-shirts got detained by the police.

There haven't been too many of them - neither today nor yesterday - and at first I was wondering: why would Putin want to give them so much publicity? I don't agree with those who seriously think he's scared and that's why employs so much force. Without these arrests they would've been more or less invisible, right? But Mishah explained to me that this is being done to scare the shit out of the more timid citizens, the zombified majority. And also, I guess, to give more material to the zombified Nashi movement...
