6.11.2022 dávali v televízii starý slovenský film Zemianska česť, na ktorý sme takmer zabudli. Nevieme, či ho v telke dávali v súvislosti s práve ubehnuvšími voľbami alebo hroziacimi predčasnými voľbami do parlamentu, ale či už tak alebo onak, načasovanie nemohlo byť lepšie. Ide totiž o satiru na predvolebnú frašku sfilmovanú podľa románu Jána Kalinčiaka Reštavrácia.

Napriek tomu, že román pochádza z roku 1860, je až neuveriteľné, ako nadčasovo je napísaný, pretože charaktery a charakteristiky postavičiek, ako aj ich správanie, možno napasovať na všetky politické figúrky, ktoré sme u nás doposiaľ mali a stále máme. No a rovnako aj na voličov, ktorí tieto politické figúrky volia.

Repríza televíznej klasiky nás priviedla k zamysleniu, kde sú korene takého správania a takých charakterov. Vzhľadom na dobu, kedy román vznikol, je zrejmé, že s tým určite nemá nič spoločné obdobie socializmu, na ktoré sa často zvaľuje všetko zlé, čo sa u nás dialo a deje. Takto sme sa správali už dávnom pred socializmom. Je to teda v nás, v národe, v našich génoch, že sme takým falošným, úplatným, bezzásadovým a bezcharakterným národom? Necháme sa kúpiť za klobásu či poldeci pálenky?

Odkaz románu do dnešnej doby

Dá sa teda pobaviť a zasmiať aj na takom starom filme? Určite áno, najmä keď si v jeho hrdinoch predstavíme naše súčasné politické postavičky. Realita dnešných dní však, bohužiaľ, nie je ani trochu zábavná, takže ide skôr o smiech cez slzy.

Ako sa to vo filme vlastne skončilo? Všetci sa pobratali, funkcie si podelili a obidve bandy vládli v podstate spolu. Nikoho ani vtedy nezaujímalo, ako je na tom krajina, ako sa vodí obyčajnému ľudu. Za všetko hovoria posledné slová filmu: „Nuž, ľa! Čo sa statočný zeman natrápi, kým vyjde na psí tridsiatok!“. A čo tak parafráza na súčasnú dobu: „Nuž, ľa! Čo sa statočná Slovač natrápi, kým vyjde na psí tridsiatok!“.

Nuž, od toho asi už nemáme ďaleko, keďže sa od Kalinčiakových čias vlastne nič nezmenilo. Ale môže sa, stačí iba odstaviť podarených politikov a hlavne volebný systém, ktorý im šafárenie umožňuje. Práve preto je tu tento portál, aby poukázal, kde je podstata tohto zla. Kým si neuvedomíme tieto fundamentálne okolnosti, nie je možné ani hľadať riešenia.

Román Reštavrácia a film Zemianska česť tak ostávajú nielen skvelou komédiou, ale aj mementom, že tváre sa síce menia, no politické taktiky ostávajú zhruba rovnaké. Voľby boli, sú a vždy budú iba fraškou pre verejnosť, zorganizovanou ziskuchtivými a mocibažnými indivíduami.

  1. ‚Tis the season for decadence and a touch of sparkle –
    and what better way to bring festive cheer than a fridge
    full of fizz for parties and impromptu gatherings?

    Champagne is admittedly my bubbly of choice – I love both poised,
    elegant styles with brisk acidity and the richer, pastry-like, gastronomic pours.
    But with Christmas all about sharing, toasting,
    and big get-togethers, stocking up is essential.

    Consumer group Which? has named Tesco Finest Premier Cru Brut Champagne the best Christmas fizz, outclassing Moët & Chandon’s Brut Impérial.
    The supermarket fizz costs just £25 a bottle, but many popular Champagnes are priced over £40.

    With that in mind, I’m sharing my secrets for sparkling swaps that keep both
    the palate and the wallet happy.

    Bollinger Champagne, £58

    Swap for? Langlois Crémant Brut Réserve NV, £15.95

    Saving: £42.05 a bottle 

    For Bolly bling without the sting, head to the Loire Valley, where the Bollinger family crafts this Crémant using the same traditional method as their Champagnes.

    Made primarily from Chenin Blanc, which thrives in the Loire, it
    undergoes 24 months of aging, delivering a Crémant with depth that offers a charming
    twist on Bollinger’s rich Champagne style – with change to spare.

    Louis Roederer Cristal Champagne, £280

    Swap for? Roederer Estate Quartet NV, £32

    Saving: £248 a bottle 

    Renowned producer Louis Roederer is the name behind the iconic Cristal Champagne
    – a prized choice among celebrities, especially when served
    in a flashy jeroboam, complete with sparklers in the ‘VIP section‘
    of nightclubs. But if the £270 price tag brings tears to your eyes,
    try Cristal’s Californian cousin, Quartet. Crafted in the cool Anderson Valley, it offers a taste
    of luxury for almost a tenth of the cost.

    Laurent Perrier Rosé Champagne, £80

    Swap for? Morrisons The Best Crémant De Limoux Rosé NV, £12.50

    Saving: £67.50 a bottle 

    If you’re after something pink, grab this super chic Crémant de Limoux from Morrisons – delivering luxe for less.

    With a delicate effervescence and notes of strawberries and
    cream, it hints at pink Champagne at five times the price.

    And here’s a little-known fact: legend has it that the art of fizz
    was first discovered in Limoux, in the South of France – though our friends in Champagne may disagree.

    Ace of Spades Champagne, £315

    Swap for? Segura Viudas Brut Vintage Premium Cava, £12

    Saving:  £303 a bottle

    For showstopping-style on a shoestring, skip Harrods, forget Jay-Z’s red-carpet-ready ‘Ace of
    Spades‘ and head to Sainsbury’s for Segura Viudas premium
    cava, complete with a shield that’s delightfully close
    to a spade. For the price of one bottle of that Champagne, you could
    bag 26 bottles of this classy cava – and, honestly, after a few glasses, who’s noticing the difference?

    Ruinart Blanc de Blancs Champagne, £89

    Swap for? Fortnum’s Franca Contea Franciacorta Brut NV,
    £26.50

    Saving: £62.50 a bottle

    ‘Blanc de Blancs‘ meaning ‘white of whites‘ is the name
    for bubbles made solely from white grapes – typically Chardonnay in Champagne,
    delivering elegance and finesse, à la Ruinart. Prices have crept
    up as Blanc de Blancs become all the rage, but hop
    over the border to the hidden gem of Franciacorta in Lombardy,
    northern Italy, and you’ll find complex, vinous sips with plenty of flair, like
    this Fortnum’s pick.

    Pol Roger Champagne, £55

    Swap for? Graham Beck Selection Sparkling Wine, £13.50

    Saving:  £41.50 a bottle

    I served these delicious South African bubbles at my wedding
    – quaffed in record time, with nobody realising it wasn’t Champagne.
    As well as my own big day, Graham Beck has made an appearance at state events for Nelson Mandela and Barack Obama,
    earning it the title of ‘presidential pick‘ for sparkling
    wine. And you’ll save a few quid compared to other politician favourites, like Pol Roger.

    Mumm Champagne, £39

    Swap for? Mumm Marlborough Brut Prestige, £25

    Saving:  £14 a bottle

    From Marlborough, New Zealand’s premier region and home of top
    Brit sip, Sauvignon Blanc, comes a fresh take on fizz.

    Blessed with sunshine and a cool climate, Marlborough produces
    wines that are vibrant and crisp. Here, a blend of traditional Champagne varieties –
    Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier – offers an easy-drinking,
    bright character, and a great value sub for Mumm’s beloved bubbles.

    Veuve Clicquot Champagne, £48

    Swap for? Veuve Monsigny Champagne Brut NV, £14.99

    Saving:  £33.01 a bottle

    First launched over a decade ago at £12.99, Aldi has miraculously kept
    their best-selling Veuve Monsigny Champagne under £15.
    For a sprightly, quaffable style, it’s unbeatable at that price – perfect for Buck’s Fizz at Christmas Day brunch, canapés, and a refreshing post-turkey sip.
    It’s worth mentioning that the Premier Cru label at £21.99
    is a real step up and fantastic value too.

    Moët & Chandon Champagne, £44

    Swap for? Chandon Brut Argentina, £23

    Saving: £21 a bottle 

    From Champagne giant Moët & Chandon, Chandon Brut is a Champagne-style bubbly
    from Mendoza, Argentina. If you’re thinking Mendoza is known for its hot climate and big, bold
    Malbec reds, think again – Chandon’s vineyards are situated in the foothills
    of the Andes at over 1,000 metres, where cooling influences help retain that desirable freshness in the grapes.

    to listen news on Television, thus I simply use world wide web for that purpose, and take the newest information.

  4. I do not even know how I ended up here, but I thought this post was great.
    I don’t know who you are but certainly you’re going to a famous blogger
    if you aren’t already 😉 Cheers!

  5. I’m amazed, I must say. Seldom do I encounter a blog that’s equally educative and amusing, and let me tell you, you’ve hit
    the nail on the head. The problem is something not enough people are speaking
    intelligently about. Now i’m very happy that I came across this in my hunt for something relating to this.

  6. Hi there! I just wish to give you a huge thumbs up for the great info you’ve got right here on this post.

    to create your theme? Great work!

  8. An impressive share! I have just forwarded this onto
    a coworker who was conducting a little research on this.
    And he in fact ordered me dinner simply because
    I found it for him… lol. So allow me to reword this….
    Thank YOU for the meal!! But yeah, thanks for spending some time
    to discuss this matter here on your web page.

  9. My developer is trying to persuade me to move to .net from PHP.

    I have always disliked the idea because of the costs. But he’s tryiong none the less.
    I’ve been using Movable-type on several websites for about a year and am anxious about switching to another platform.

    I have heard good things about blogengine.net.
    Is there a way I can import all my wordpress content into it?

    Any kind of help would be really appreciated!

  10. Howdy! Quick question that’s completely off topic.

    Do you know how to make your site mobile friendly?

    My site looks weird when browsing from my apple iphone.
    I’m trying to find a theme or plugin that might be able to fix this issue.
    If you have any suggestions, please share. With thanks!
