Oblivion: Jyggalag's madness
by IgorLevchenko
" Everything will pass. And it's over ": former political prisoner Igor Levchenko sang a song near the colony after being released " It's a very strange feeling. I'm happy that I'm with my family, but I'm also afraid, I don't feel safe yet ," Levchenko shared. As he was leaving the colony, his mother, with whom he had a three-day visit before his release, was waiting for him. According to him, this smoothed the transition from the colony to “relative freedom.” “I want to eat a hamburger, a big, real one, from McDonald’s. - Unfortunately, McDonald's is no longer there. “I know, so I won’t eat it.” "I want to say thank you and I myself first of all want to get acquainted, I have not had such an opportunity, with people who are sitting in prison. I also want to write them letters." Levchenko also reported that he was constantly summoned by the colony staff because of the letters: " I really didn't like it. They kept saying 'don't answer' ." “Do letters really help? “I can’t even put it into words.” Right at the walls of the colony, Levchenko performed the Beatles' song "Let it be": "I really want to believe that everything will pass. Not only in my life, but in others' lives as well. And this whole situation in general. "
This is why I follow these people. So their joy can be mine.
⭕️ Political prisoner Igor Levchenko released from prison in Ryazan region In 2022, Russian and Ukrainian citizen Igor Levchenko was sentenced to 3 years in prison under the article on “inciting hatred or enmity.” He was arrested for a story published on February 24, 2022. The man was forced to apologize on camera and was soon sent to a pretrial detention center. Levchenko published recordings of his own songs in Russian, Ukrainian and English on his blog. He performed one of the pacifist compositions at the Memorial Society festival in Moscow shortly after the start of SVO. [WAR] There are the following words: "Why should we fight? Why can't it be all right? Why should tears flow? Who needs this war? No war! We have to save lives! I hate guns! I hate Mars! No war! No more! We never-never open this door! Levchenko posted the song on social media several times, once accompanying it with footage of the bombings. In this same blog, he often discussed good and evil. For example, he wrote: " Let's be kinder to each other, let's see each other as people " and " Nazism is being revived in Ukraine - it's a lie. Nazism is the most terrible thing that man has ever invented ." He also spoke out about the dispersal of peaceful protests in Russia and expressed outrage at the cruelty of the Lukashenko regime.
