Citizen Gorica Dodik, Miletov's sweetheart, was very upset because Sarajevo War Theater (SARTR) was going to be a guest at a theater review in Banja Luka. And when Gorica gets upset, it can't be just one individual upset, but by announcing the boycott of that visit, the entire so-called local community joined him. public service, which is also Milet's pet, although he did not create it. Or a little bit, as it were.
That those from SARTR will not "perhaps bring war flags", shouted an upset Gorica on Twitter and spread moral panic up and down Vrbas. I have no idea what the theater's "war flags" are, but it looks like they didn't bring them. Even the play they were playing had nothing to do with the war. Although, even if it was, what exactly would be wrong with that?
The thing is, however, that a Sarajevo theater for a certain type of Serbian mind cannot be called "wartime", even though it was founded in the absolutely abnormal and unimaginable conditions of wartime Sarajevo - that's why it's called that. Because every "belligerence" of anything from Sarajevo immediately reminds of the biggest, longest-lasting and most absurd calvary of the Bosnian war, and that of impure consciences who do not know and do not understand anything about their own impurity, but instinctively feel that something itches, immediately sounds like a call that never it won't stop.
And when I think about it, it's good that it doesn't stop. This is what Kundera calls "the struggle of memory against forgetting". In order for the memory to win, it is enough not to agree to the lie, which is the real name of forgetfulness.
