Gopniki. Great National Treasure Is Gone!

“The Excile” published an amazing cultural anthropology exploration of specific Russian archetype – “Gopnik”. As they say, it’s the “tragic tale of a dying breed of a once-proud people”. The article is full of sharp observations, metaphors, and brilliant anecdotes. Like the note about Soviet-era children's carousels “that all but screamed, «If you want to have a very, very late-term abortion, then place your child on this attraction, stand back, pay five rubles, and let us take care of the rest.» See for yourself.
