I might have got lynched last night, if a friend hadn't noticed what I was wearing. I have a fake fur army hat bought in east Berlin fifteen years ago. Forgot entirely that it had a red star and hammer and sickle badge on the front. Oops. Removed it pretty sharpish.
Was that you
literally just in front of me holding one end of HWM's Ukrainian Fleg?
HWM etc were safe enough hidden
behind the fleg, but I did pass the comment that being visible and identifiable holding one
end of the fleg, we would be the first against the wall when the Russians eventually arrive in Norn iron. I thought you were wearing that hat, hoping the TMO (
Tелевидение
Mitigation
Oфицер) might look on your headwear as a mitigating factor and advise the referee just to sentence you to life in one of the gulags.
There won't be any niceties like Disciplinary Panels when the Russians take over - it will be swift martial law; sentence to be carried out immediately with no right of appeal, and no time to put on a nice suit. Pleading guilty won't help to reduce the sentence any either, as they will have your confession already written in advance, simply requiring you to sign it - the easy way or the hard way.
