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.

  3. What do pop star Lily Allen, Olympic gold medal-winning diver Jack Laugher, tennis
    player Nick Kyrgios and 25-year-old Bonnie Blue from Nottingham, who has filmed herself
    having sex with hundreds of 18-year-old students
    (and sometimes their dads, too), all have in common?

    Yes, you guessed it. They are all ‘creatives‘ on OnlyFans,
    the adults-only online content provider founded in 2016 by a young Essex businessman called Tim Stokely, which is
    now one of the most visited (and lucrative) websites in the world.

    Just last month, Lily Allen caused a stir by revealing that she
    makes more money charging $10 (£8) – the site works in dollars – for pictures of her feet on her OnlyFans account labelled ‘La Dolca Feeta‘
    than she does from her 7.5million monthly listeners on Spotify.

    But Lily’s content is tame in comparison to much of
    the content on the site, the sort company execs refer to as ‘spicy‘.
    Everything from cheeky shots of bottoms peeking out of bubble baths, blondes
    stirring vats of steaming pasta in G-strings, hot
    men waxing cars in their pants, right through the sex spectrum
    to twosomes, threesomes, sixsomes and hardcore pornographic videos.

    But also because, thanks to the allure of OnlyFans and the astonishing sums that a teeny number of the platform’s 4.1million creatives are raking
    in, more and more young women (and it is mostly young
    women) who would never have considered it before are suddenly happy to join in and sell photos of, well, pretty much anything, to pay rent, settle credit card
    bills or splash out on nice holidays. Basically, a flashier life all round.

    ‘We feel empowered. We have agency. It’s completely up to me if I take my top off or not,‘ says one 21-year-old girl,
    who joined a year ago and makes enough in a week to cover a year’s student rent at Sheffield University and prefers not to give her name.

    ‘And I am happy to do it because for once I make the rules,
    in the safety of my home and they’re paying me to do it.
    It’s a mug’s game, but I am not the mug.‘

    For the benefit of those readers who are not among the
    site’s 305million users, OnlyFans offers creators a platform where they can charge their
    fans a subscription fee ranging from $4.99 to $49.99 a month to look at their content, contact them (or more often access
    their ‘chatter‘ – more of which later) and access often more
    explicit, personalised, ‘à la carte‘ content through ‘tips‘.

    OnlyFans model Bonnie Blue has filmed herself having sex with
    hundreds of 18-year-olds

    Rapper Cardi B is said to make $9million (£7.1million)
    a month from the site

    Actress Bella Thorne, a former Disney child star, made a record-breaking
    $1million (£800,000) in 24 hours

    ‘Pay $10 to unlock this video‘. ‘Click here for
    more spicy content‘. ‘The more you pay, the more you see‘.
    You get the gist.

    In 2023, the site generated a record $6.6billion (£5.2billion), of which the company takes a
    straight 20 per cent – much less than YouTube – and the rest goes
    to the ‘performers‘.

    It is unlike Instagram or other social media sites in that nothing
    is suggested – instead, you have to search for,
    and then subscribe to, individual accounts to see much more than profile pictures.

    Which is a good thing, because while some of the content is anodyne,
    much is highly sexual and many people on the site can bob freely from one to another.
    Perhaps a cookery hack one day, modelling new boots the next,
    then graduate to a few cheeky cleavage and bikini shots and more, as the money becomes more tempting.

    Every week, it seems, we hear of someone who has made millions.

    Last month it was announced that American influencer Corinna Kopf had retired from
    the site, aged 28, after making $67million (£53million).
    In her best month, she reportedly earned more than $2million (£1.6million).

    Rapper Cardi B is said to earn more than $9million (£7.1million) a month from the site.

    Meanwhile, Darcie Rattles was an out-of-work bricklayer with
    £6,000 in credit card bills and debts when she joined OnlyFans in 2022.

    ‘I was thinking: how the hell am I going to get to next week?
    How am I going to pay my credit cards?‘ she says in an online interview.
    ‘I’m young, I’ve got a good body and I’ve got a lot of followers.
    It is what any girl would turn to. It had been in the back of mind for two years,
    but then I did it.‘

    Within two days of launching, she had earned enough to pay off her debts.
    Today, Darcie, who comes across as likeable, down-to-earth and has
    no qualms about what she shares, claims to earn more than £250,000 a year.

    Pop singer Lily Allen has discovered a niche market…

    … she sells pictures of her feet for £8 and makes more money from her account labelled ‚La Dolca Feeta‘ than she does from her 7.5million monthly listeners on Spotify

    ‘It doesn’t matter to me whether I get my feet out, or my other
    bits out,‘ she says.

    Though it does tend to be the other bits, because Darcie’s content promises very few clothes and, for those
    who pay extra, ‘a naughty side to me you’ve never seen before‘.

    But even Darcie seems like the girl next door compared to Lily Phillips, a British model who earned £2,000 in her first 24
    hours on the site and recently went viral for sleeping with 101 men over a 14-hour period.
    She has since announced she is planning to set a record of having sex
    with 1,000 men in 24 hours.

    And Bonnie Blue, a beautiful blonde with
    a golden tan and astonishingly white teeth, who has worked her way round Derby,
    Nottingham, Cancun and Australia, sleeping with university students.

    On one night during Nottingham Trent freshers‘ week – after publicising her stunt by wearing a sandwich board that read: ‘Bonk me for free and let me film it‘ – she had boys queuing up from 6pm
    until five in the morning.

    ‘I got through them all,‘ she said proudly in one interview in which
    she reminds us that, thanks to OnlyFans, she has already banked more than £3 million – for which
    she was applauded by her followers for her
    entrepreneurship.

    But all that is chicken feed when you consider the £370 million dividend that company owner paid himself last year.

    And these days that’s Leonid Radvinsky, who bought
    a majority stake from Tim Stokely in 2018,
    two years after he started the business with the help of a loan from his
    father.

    It was the Covid-era lockdowns that thrust OnlyFans into the stratosphere.
    Everyone shut up at home, nothing to do. In 2020, it generated revenues of $2.23billion (£1.8billion).
    By 2021, it was up to $4.8billion (£3.8billion). There was a brief hiatus in October of that year when they tried banning
    sexually explicit content but that lasted about ten minutes before they
    switched back.

    There have been plenty of scandals along the way.
    A BBC investigation back in 2021 revealed that children were
    not just accessing the material online by foxing the age verification process
    but were also selling explicit videos on the
    website. Leah, 17, had used a fake driving licence to set up an OnlyFans account where she made £5,
    000 uploading revealing videos of herself.

    There have also been claims of OnlyFans creators using public gyms and spaces to make adult content.

    Recently there has been more concerns that the company is not doing enough to protect minors.

    OnlyFans, however, prefers to portray itself as a force for
    good, with supporters arguing that it empowers people by allowing them
    to sell content – over which they have full control – directly to consumers.
    And many of the Gen Z generation seem to agree.
    ‘It’s fine. It’s empowering. It’s taking control,‘
    they cry, pointing out that the site has loads of moderators and a tight security system to ensure that all users are over 18.

    And they say, anyway, that OnlyFans isn’t just about sex.

    Of course, they’re right. It has long been awash with pneumatic reality TV stars and the
    likes of Lottie Moss, Kerry Katona and Katie Price, who are happy to
    tease their followers with a few cheeky peeks in skimpy bikinis.

    I spend an afternoon browsing the site and, while it is not
    all ‘spicy‘ content as the company executives
    like to call it, everything is dripping with sauce and promise.

    The big lips, the push-up bras, even the way a pretty Spanish chef is holding her paella pan. Company executives have been pushing hard to make the
    platform more mainstream – offering contracts and financial incentives to
    encourage musicians, sports stars, cooks, anyone really, to come on and share
    a bit of exclusive – or niche – content.

    Really, anything that people will pay to look at – glimpses backstage at concerts.
    Celebrities in the bath.

    During the 2024 Olympic Games, a raft of athletes jumped on the
    OnlyFans bandwagon to share pictures of their beautifully toned bodies.

    Along with Jack Laugher, Team NZ rower Robbie Manson uses
    the site to share ‘exclusive content that tastefully explores the
    boundaries, including artistic portrayals of nudity‘ for $14.99 a month.

    Lottie Moss  has also taken to the adults-only
    online content provider that was founded in 2016
    and is used by 4.1 million creatives

    Elise Christie turned to the site when she found herself in financial difficulties.

    All of which seems to be working well for them, but it can be
    rather murkier for others.

    Not least because, in less than a decade, OnlyFans has spawned an entire support industry of ‘sugar daddies‘ who support
    performers financially and ‘chatters‘ who work for them. ‘Sugar daddies‘ tend to be older
    male businessmen who ‘invest‘ in promising creatives.

    In what are referred to rather murkily as
    ‘mutually beneficial deals‘, they invest in branding and marketing and videography to boost traffic.

    Chatters are different. For the real stars, the traffic is so high and
    the interaction with followers so demanding that if they
    had to do it all themselves, there’s no way they would ever have time
    to put their pyjamas back on.

    So ‘chatters‘ – a sort of online 21st-century Cyrano de
    Bergerac – do that for them. Keeping them engaged, online,
    needy and most of all, spending, spending, spending for more and more content.

    Which means, of course, that the whole thing is a total scam.
    The poor daft subscriber thinks he’s really making a connection with ‘Racy Tracey
    from Twickenham‘, but is more likely chatting to
    a middle-aged father of three from the Philippines.

    He will have learnt everything about Tracey – her favourite colour, favourite animal and favourite position – have
    studied a script that reminds him ‘it’s all
    about selling, selling, selling‘, and will be being paid $4 an hour for his efforts.
    Or the subscriber could just be talking to an AI bot – which perhaps is more appealing.

    EXCLUSIVE

    A year after split, I’ve had a baby and got engaged,
    writes Mother Pukka ANNA WHITEHOUSE

    Chatters can be dangerous. As Alanya, a paralegal from Scotland, discovered when she learned that one of her most enthusiastic followers had travelled to her home town to
    find her, encouraged by her chatter.

    ‘My chatter told him that I loved him. I would
    never, ever have said that,‘ she said.

    But, sadly, chatters, sugar daddies and stalkers are not a
    problem for most creatives. Almost all of whom are still
    struggling to make any proper money, however many clothes
    they take off.

    They will never know the clout of Cardi B, or Lily Allen, or former Disney child star Bella Thorne,
    who famously made a record- breaking $1million (£800,000) in 24
    hours when she joined in August 2020. (Though initially there was some confusion as to
    whether she would be appearing nude or not. She did
    not – which caused quite a rumpus.)

    Because, unlike celebrities who can redirect their existing social media followers to their OnlyFans accounts,
    most people find it hard to grab attention without doing something, well, grabby.

    So, despite all the tales of golden riches, the average earnings of an OnlyFans creative is still just $150 (£118) a month and,
    with the market now so flooded, is only likely to go one way.

    And it’s easy to see how, if you’re a young woman who has convinced
    yourself that you’re in control, empowered and mistress of your own destiny,
    you could find yourself moving inevitably and inexorably up (or perhaps down) the
    scale, revealing more and more.

    Until, before you know it, like Bonnie Blue and Lily
    Phillips, you’ve kept nothing back for yourself.

  4. There is something reassuringly robust about The Punch Bowl Inn.
    Not just in the old-fashioned bar, where the Wainwright Gold is well kept and a huge leather sofa sits before a blazing wood burner; or in the dining room, solid and comfortable, with
    its old beams, well-trodden wooden floors and tables unadorned with cloths;
    it’s in the menu, too, mainly British with a Gallic
    burr, that makes full use of the magnificent local Lake District larder.

    Stornoway black pudding with crispy egg and bubble and squeak: ‘pure Cumbrian comfort by way of Lewis‘,
    is Tom’s verdict

    We’re here with Peter Gott, that great Cumbrian hero,
    and the man behind Sillfield Farm, who has invited me up
    to cook at the Westmorland County Show; also chef Phil Vickery, who certainty knows his alliums;
    and the force of nature that is Lorraine Stanton, something of a legend
    around these parts. But first dinner, and a sublime twice-baked Mrs
    Kirkham’s cheese soufflé, the texture as light as a sigh, the flavour profoundly,
    lasciviously rich. Mrs Kirkham’s, now made by her son Graham, is
    one of the world’s great cheeses, and this is a soufflé of quiet majesty.

    A mushroom soup is equally splendid, managing to be both light and gutsy, while Stornoway black pudding with bubble and squeak and a deep-fried egg is pure
    Cumbrian comfort by way of Lewis.

    There’s a fundamental generosity here, matched by assured technical precision. Duck à l’orange sees
    a plump breast cooked rare, the skin crisp, the sauce just the right side
    of bitter. It comes with a fat potato fondant and cabbage spiked with shards of smoked
    bacon. I eat rump of lamb, four vast just-pink slices, drenched in the
    stickiest, most gloriously intense of gravies; by
    its side, a tiny shepherd’s pie, one bite of pure
    ovine brilliance.

    Puddings are every bit as fine: a lemon tart, beautifully sharp, with damson sorbet (this part of the Lake District is famed for its damsons); along
    with a banana soufflé, this time the classic version but ethereal, served
    with vanilla ice cream and a pot of sticky-toffee sauce to pour deep into its
    molten centre. This is good old-fashioned food, immaculately done, in the sort of pub designed for lingering.
    It’s getting late now, and we’ve an early start. But first, another bottle
    of wine. Dinners like this are too rare to be rushed.
