The point is that there is no discrimination in propaganda or the means for political struggle- any discrimination, even extremely marginal. For example, the desire to pour sewage water on Taron Margaryan was glorified when necessary and condemned when not. A person with a rational mindset is unable to keep up with all these ups and downs.

Let me provide a few examples. If negotiating the withdrawal of Armenian troops from the liberated regions was wrong in 1998, it was also wrong in 2011, and it remains wrong now. If it is right, then it was also right in any of those time periods. If attacking the police and committing murder is a crime, then those who were guilty and the coordinators need to be imprisoned. But if it is not a crime and instead a wonderful and heroic revellion, then anyone who is in custody for that must be released. Some of them should even perhaps be awarded the Military Cross. If it is legal to cover a speedometer with underwear, then someone who does that today should also not be held responsible.
