By Months: Juku-Kalle Raid

The rhetorical style is extremely concise, direct, and unusually well-informed, including a literary quotation. A simplifying and humorous comparison ("simple as a trouser button") is employed to underscore historical justice.

The rhetorical style is sharp, historically grounded, and polemical. Strong analogies and shocking comparisons are employed (Kirill's submission is compared to submitting to Hamas imams) to discredit the opponent's position. The speaker addresses colleagues directly, asking them to confirm that the nature of the Russian church has not changed, using the ironic phrase, "the Stalinist sun is simply Putinist."
