And this is not about hardship \u2014 hardship is universal right now. The question is different: why direct anger and effort at a place where it cannot physically, technically, or logically produce any result?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"139\" data-end=\"368\">So you\u2019ve blocked the road. What\u2019s next? Will the transformer repair itself? Will the power line magically reconnect? Would the voltage suddenly stabilize out of sheer embarrassment? What exactly is supposed to happen in this chain of events?<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"370\" data-end=\"642\">Instead, you block the road \u2014 and make life worse for other people. Someone won\u2019t be able to buy groceries. Someone won\u2019t get their medicine. An ambulance may be delayed. A fire truck could be delayed. And most importantly, none of this will restore the electricity.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"644\" data-end=\"819\">You are not addressing the root of the problem; you are creating new troubles around you. And I genuinely want to understand: what outcome are you trying to achieve?<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"821\" data-end=\"1078\">Your efforts are misdirected. Completely. If you want to apply pressure, do it if decisions are made. \u00a0Go to NABU. Demand the dismissal of Mindich and the rest of these \u201cremarkable\u201d figures who are currently living their best lives far from here.<\/p>\n\t\t<aside class=\"shortcode-also\" data-title=\"Read also\" >\n\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/prm.ua\/en\/the-mayor-said-to-leave-beleniuk-published-a-photo-from-bukovel-and-reacted-with-irony-to-klitschko-s-appeal\/\">\u201cThe mayor said to leave\u201d: Beleniuk published a photo from Bukovel and reacted with irony to Klitschko\u2019s appeal<\/a>\n\t<\/aside>\n\n<p data-start=\"116\" data-end=\"297\">That is the true point of leverage. As the classics put it, \u201cGive me a fulcrum and I will move the world.\u201d A blocked avenue is not a fulcrum. It is simply chaos that helps no one.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"304\" data-end=\"575\">So again: I understand the anger. I understand the despair. I understand the exhaustion. But when you start fighting not the cause, but everyone around you, you don\u2019t bring a solution any closer. You only multiply the disorder. And that is what I truly cannot understand.<\/p>\n<p><em>On the eve, residents of Sofiivska Borshchahivka blocked traffic in the area of the Barcelona residential complex. People have complained about the lack of electricity for about 40 hours. A group of locals took to the streets and blocked traffic in the area of the Barcelona residential complex.
