Cords: to leave means to betray. And you can criticize here. Freedom of speech is present…: amarok_man — LiveJournal

Sergey Shnurov spoke about the departed artists, showmen and others. He stated that he was not going to leave his homeland. He said that he would remain in the country and with his audience. As for those who left, many simply burned their bridges behind them and will not return. And they betrayed their viewers:

“As for me, I’m not going to leave. The position of the departed is weak. Here you stay with the viewer, you can speak quite sharply, choosing your words and not violating the law. There is freedom of speech. To leave is to betray the viewer. I don’t want to condemn anyone. The viewer believed listened, looked into your mouth, and you left. The spectator cannot leave. Stay with him! This is my opinion.
