Social media users are sceptical about Alaudinov's proposal for mobilization
Alaudinov's calls for mobilization are absurd, and if it is so necessary, it should start with the families of Chechen leadership and authorities, social media users have suggested.
Readers of the "Caucasian Knot" on the Facebook*, where the outlet’s page has 158,000 subscribers, have expressed their opinions about Alaudinov's calls for mobilization. The respective posts received 66 and 367 comments.
"Why mobilize? There are enough volunteers, enough money; there will always be people willing to fight, albeit under different motives," the user Nadia Melanenko has written.
"Let the Don <the head of Chechnya Ramzan Kadyrov> mobilize his son as well," the user Aleksander Yurkilis has suggested.
"Go ahead with Kadyrov's sons and relatives, their relatives, sons of <Vladimir> Solovyov, etc. You'll quickly get a million of these," Oleg Iksel has supported the idea.
"TikTok won't be able to handle that kind of volume!" Artyom Kolesnik has responded.
"Mobilize your children, those of Putin, Lavrov, Simonyan, Deripaska, the children of all the top brass," Marat Syundyukov has suggested.
"Why mobilization? Let’s announce recruitment of volunteers for the ‘Russian Community’ to defend the Russian people from enslavement by international capital and continue the glorious deeds of our ancestors in expanding the borders of the Russian Federation up to the Atlantic. The ‘Russian Community’ is itching to do so. Don’t they know where to invest their strength?" Shukhrat Mirzadaev has written.
"There are many ‘Russian Community’ impostors in all market and public places; they illegally check non-Russian citizens and pester people. Why shouldn't they go to Ukraine – that would be a manly act," Magomed Abakarov has offered.
Alaudinov's call has caused a discussion in social networks.
“Well, he is right, of course. But <...> who, in what, where, when, and how should we equip, shoe, feed, house, train, transport, examine, treat, arm and control all this?! Who will do all this, and on what money?!" Andrei Basmanov has asked in the comments to a post on this topic posted in the “VKontakte” page by Evgeny Makhnovsky, which gained six comments.
"But his opinion on Iran is of no interest to anyone! Let him sort it out in Chechnya first!" Maria Dulenkov has commented.
In the "For the Russian World" public in the “VKontakte”, which has 3718 subscribers, a user with the nickname "Omegashtab Special Project" compared Alaudinov and Greta Thunberg, calling them information projects. "According to the plan, Alaudinov was supposed to portray a pro-Russian Chechen who would be an authority both there and there, and would be able to set some general standards. <...> He is a purely information project and nothing more. There can be no talk of authority here," the user wrote, calling for not taking Alaudinov's reasoning seriously.
"Apti, start mobilization with your sons and Chechens," Galina S. has suggested in the Telegram channel "Govorit NeMoskva" (Not Moscow Speaking)**.
