The political scientist from Moscow University saw "nothing new" in the behavior of young people in Russia.
It's normal to be a bully at a certain age.
Fears of dangerous subcultures are exaggerated. Teenagers in our country are "herbivore and cultured" compared to the French.
This opinion was expressed on the radio station "Moscow Speaks" by Stanislav Bishok, candidate of political science, psychologist and teacher at the Faculty of Political Science at Moscow University.
There is nothing new here. If you are not looking for meaning, if you are not misbehaving at a certain age, then something is wrong with you. Especially if it is "Russian hooliganism", which compared to French hooliganism, they are so herbivorous and so cultured. Well, they gather in the center [young people - about. GM], they give the cash to the bars, they barrage. But our public toilets work well, they clean everything.
I think this is a really important point. When they say there are modern dangerous subcultures, then let's put it this way: there are always dangerous subcultures, but fear has big eyes. For example, now people who listen to standard rock music, the Beatles and something like that, are already completely considered "norms". And at one time, when the Beatles were active, there was a serious moral panic in Britain that these were strange and dangerous people.
