Tsar Vladimir Putin and our great geopolitical turn ("American Thinker", USA)

107
I believe that now we have witnessed a turn of the geopolitical stories, turning, which historians of the future, perhaps, will be compared with the decline of the Roman Empire. Vladimir Putin began to act, and his actions are directed not only against Ukraine. And not only against Eastern Europe. And even, quite likely, not only against the dominant positions of the USA in the world.

There were times when the USSR was an "evil empire", the unholy Golgotha. But it remains in the past. Now, at the turn of 2013 and 2014, Putin, in his annual address to the nation, said: “Many Euro-Atlantic countries have actually taken the path of abandoning their roots, including Christian values, which are the basis of Western civilization ... to one level a large family and same-sex partnership, faith in God or faith in Satan ... This is a direct path to degradation. "

This speech of his time approximately coincided with the adoption in Russia of a law banning the propaganda of homosexuality and became a kind of gunfire against the sexual heresy of the West and its underlying moral relativism.

In another speech, also directed against relativism, Putin stated the following: “People are now being asked to… obligatory recognition of equivalence, as it does not seem strange, of good and evil, opposing concepts”.

Then the President of Russia fired on cultural diversity: "Today, in many countries, the norms of morality and ethics are being revised, the national traditions and differences of nations and cultures are being erased."

We are currently watching the start of the Russian cultural war 2.0. In its document entitled “Basics of the State Cultural Policy”, the Kremlin doubles the rate and writes the following: “Russia should be viewed as a unique and original civilization, not reducible to either the“ West ”or the“ East ”. The short formulation of this position is the thesis “Russia is not Europe”, confirmed by the entire history of the country and the people. ” The document further states that Russia must “abandon the principles of multiculturalism and tolerance” and reject cultural projects that “impose value norms alien to society”.

No, this is not the Russia of your grandfathers. Rather, it is your great-grandfathers Russia.

I suspect that now in Russia there are several different processes. Those 20 years that have passed since the end of the Cold War were a period of relative cooperation between Russia and the West, but you can’t look for your own place, agreeing with the world cultural hegemon - you can’t be the leader of an orchestra playing the second violin. Therefore, Putin defines his nation as a non-moral-wild West. In addition, he understands well: to unite people around him, it takes a scarecrow - your Eurasia or “Napoleon”, which will come, kids, if you are disobedient.

Meanwhile, Putin is not going to get involved in the Cold War again. And he is not at all a Bolshevik of the old school from the ranks of the KGB, as many column authors like to portray him. He is smart enough to understand that Marxism - as today's teenagers would say - is already exhausted.

Most likely, he wants to be the next king.

What is my theory? I believe that Putin not only wants to restore the lost greatness of Russia. He sees for himself the opportunity to become a historical person.

It is worth noting that in order to go down in history, it is not necessary to be good: the Roman statesman Cicero called Julius Caesar an “ambitious villain”, but much more people know the name of Caesar than the name of Cicero. Let's try to imagine what Putin’s calculations might be. For a long time, the West was a world cultural legislator, spreading more and more non-Christian values ​​in all corners of the planet. Of course, not everyone listened to him. Islam advocates want nothing to do with these values, but they are Muslims; Sub-Saharan Africa is rebelling against them, but it lacks influence. As for South America, it, on the one hand, lacks influence, on the other - it comes in confusion. Meanwhile, China, although it is now gaining momentum, is a country inhabited mostly by atheists who are not inclined to take part in a cultural war.

But here comes the second Vladimir the Great.

Putin intends not only to seize the opportunity to make history - and unite the Russian people around him - by confronting the West, as Marxist comrades once did. He saw the opportunity to become a modern Charlemagne.

Now there was an acute shortage of the guardians of the values ​​of Christianity, and Putin realized that he had a good opportunity to take advantage of this. China will not do this, Africa will not, and South America will not and will not. However, like Vladimir the Great, who baptized Kievan Rus, like Charlemagne, who helped Christianity to gain a foothold in Europe, Putin was able to independently raise this cross.

And the West continues to help him in this. Our Marxists from culture continue to go ahead, smell the blood and are not going to stop. They will continue to load us into a state of oblivion, force us to take a lying position, make everything relative, turn into a joke, and convince us of the uselessness of values. Even now, having scored another big nail in the coffin of the institution of marriage, our militant secularists are beginning to take the first steps towards the legalization of pedophilia and bestiality. This is the Lucifer army movement.

As for Putin, he, on the contrary, assumed the role of defender of Christianity. While we are in the process of degradation, a Russian star will rise in the sky. Putin understands that the West is in decline. He observes demographic trends, as a result of which the United States is gradually turning into a nation of Latin Americans, and Western Europe into a Muslim continent. He knows that a new great power should appear in the future, and this will be either Russia or China. And he understands well which cards he must play in order to win this game.

Of course, we can argue for a long time about whether the concept of a defender of Christianity is a strategy or just a tactic, but it is so reasonable that Putin simply could not use it. Just think what benefits it can bring - starting with the justification of the expansionist policy of Russia. If you were Russian, then perhaps the idea that the West has become decadent, depraved, exhausted and pampered does not, in your view, justify the doctrine of Russia's destination? Doesn't human nature have the assurance that your moral superiority gives you the right to dominate? Note that it was this theory that served as an excuse for the imperialism of the colonial powers: they carried civilization into the world of darkness. This is what we are doing to this day, calling secular values ​​a standard. How often have we heard that the invasion of the Islamic "camp" is justified by how its rulers oppress women and how intolerant they are? Arguments can be different, but the desire to take the position of moral superiority is present absolutely everywhere.

Next is to consider international relations. Once the USSR fought with us for world influence, and where they had previously tried to sow the seeds of Marxism, now they can spread the ideas of moral purity. Resisting a decadent Western secular imperialism can help Russia acquire many friends in Africa and even in the Middle East, with much of the Far East taking the side of the dominant power.

Finally, even if Putin is in fact an atheist, he certainly knows that in order for Russia to prosper, it is necessary to renounce all Western secular and hedonistic isms. How did he understand that? According to the Soviet defector Yuri Bezmenov and some others, it was his former Marxist comrades who inspired these movements in the West to undermine the foundations of our civilization.

However, we are perfectly able to independently undermine the foundations of our civilization, and Putin is now more concerned about creating his own. Pat Buchanan (Pat Buchanan) recently wrote about this, noting that Putin may well perceive his state as the “Third Rome”:

“The first Rome was a sacred city and the heart of Christianity, which surrendered to Flavius ​​Odoacer and his barbarians in 476 AD. The second Rome was the Byzantine Constantinople (modern Istanbul), which was in the hands of the Turks in the year 1453. The successor of Byzantium, the third Rome, the last Rome of the Old Believers was Moscow.

Putin is promoting the idea that Moscow is the righteous city of modern times and the command post of the Counter Reformation, fighting against the new paganism.

... Putin claims that Russia will proudly lead a new ideological struggle between the corrupted West under the leadership of the United States and the traditional world. "



It is worth noting that the word "king" comes from the Latin word "Caesar". And although Putin may be just as happy to become a new Julius or Augustus, like Konstantin, I am sure that he no longer has a passion for Marxism. This means that you will have to play the second violin again - and the last thing the Russians would like to do now is to be like us.

        Regarding Marxism, when the 2008 crisis erupted, Capital of Marx became the most popular book in Western Europe, and the main buyers were white-collar workers and read the Ten Commandments of Communism well. for a long time resolved the issue of the identification of Russia, scored much on developing relations with the West to the detriment of the East, now we are reaping the benefits. We are Europeans, but others and the whole story went their own way and now you need to take all the best from the prosperous Russia and the USSR, Europe and the East and try on yourself, as well as look beyond your nose, the strategic planning of the country's development is not only economic, but also morally, culturally, scientifically, legally, then he will become a truly HISTORICAL PERSONALITY, but for now it would be nice to restore normal order in the country, we cannot distinguish all patients, including children from rare diseases, how many murders occur in and how many people die from drunken drivers, etc. ..

      "Geopolitika.ru: Many are inclined to say that the anti-Russian hysteria in the EU is due to the fact that the elections to the European Parliament will soon take place and the outgoing politicians say whatever they want.

      - Mateusz Piskorski: "" I think that the anti-Russian rhetoric is connected, first of all, with the US pressure on the political elites of a number of European countries. The elections to the European Parliament, scheduled for May 25, can bring success to those political forces that perceive the current version of European integration as unsuccessful, but are not looking for an alternative in Washington, but rather in Moscow and the creation of the Eurasian Union. This applies mainly to the right, anti-system movements in countries such as Hungary, Finland, France, Great Britain, Austria. The right vector strengthens the position of the Russian authorities in relation to the main cultural and civilizational issues. Russian conservatism is naturally more attractive to nationalists and conservatives than to the classical left, formerly sympathetic to the USSR. Russia does not provide financial support to any political parties. But Russia is creating an ideological alternative to postmodern progressivism. As a reaction to these trends, it is natural that Russophobic trends intensify during the election campaign. But in the end, all this can speed up the process of forming a new watershed in the European political space: Euro-Atlanticism versus continentalism / Eurasianism ""

      Perhaps this will seem naive to many, but I believe that one of the necessary stages of Russia on the path to its revival as a WORLD POWER, THIS IS A REVIVAL OF THE MONARCHY.

      De facto, she was always.
      There remains another aspect of the problem: continuity.
      Continuity is, first of all, the upbringing of the patriotic elite from which the successor is chosen and its closest circle is formed.
      In this regard, I am for PEOPLE'S MONARCHY, when the people elect the head of state from educated successors. He takes seriously and for a long time. But he has the right to be removed from management once every four years.
      Managing the Great Quiet Empire is a tremendous job and responsibility, not access to a privileged feeder.

        The monarchy in the history of Russia is a fact. And in fact, as a management method, well, no worse than these of your democracies, in my opinion. And perhaps much more effective when the monarch ALL fullness of power.
        The question of continuity is, of course, a problem.
        Hereditary - degenerates into something far from the country, as has happened more than once.
        The elective is also debatable. There will be some thread labeled dumplings and start all over again.

    Russia must abandon "the principles of multiculturalism and tolerance" and reject cultural projects that "impose value norms that are alien to society."

    No, this is not the Russia of your grandfathers. Rather, it is your great-grandfathers Russia.


    This is Russia of our grandfathers, and Russia of our great-grandfathers. The ideals of scientific communism are fully consistent with the ideals of Christianity.

    ... the United States is gradually turning into a nation of Hispanics, and Western Europe - into the Muslim continent. He (Putin) knows that in the future a new great power should appear, and it will be either Russia or China.

    Most likely, it will be both Russia and China.
    And the changes in the world are not just ripe, they are already beginning to take place. Even with a peaceful option, in 20-30 years Europe will have a number of Arab-Turkic states, and in the United States the bubble of state debt will burst. The world order based on the pederastic principles of "multiculturalism and tolerance" is collapsing.

    "According to the Soviet defector Yuri Bezmenov and some others, it was his former comrades-Marxists who inspired these movements in the West with the aim of undermining the foundations of our civilization."

    Interesting theory. The entire struggle of the USSR against colonialism and the subsequent entry of "barbarians" into the metropolis fits well into the line. The departure and livelihoods of our dissidents a la Nuriyev, and not only on the subject. You can continue for a long time. On the other hand, we take on faith that any actions of the West against us are subversive and deny the leaders of our country the same. The fact that the Naglo-Saxons have been waging a secret war against Russia for centuries, I began to think after reading "The Diplomacy of Peter the Great" by NN Molchanov, it was 20 years ago and now, three hundred years later, everything is dalad again.

    "Most likely he wants to be the next king."
    "He saw an opportunity to become the modern Charlemagne."
    "He sees an opportunity for himself to become a historical figure."


    Firstly: Putin has already entered the history of both countries and world history, as well as Obama. But who will they remember and write about in a positive way, but who will they prefer to keep silent or just forget? Question.
    Secondly: It is not he who wants to become a king, but from him the people and not only Russia make the king, because they see in their actions the last hope for protection and justice, while not trusting either local officials or world leaders of other countries.
    In general, my opinion is: an article is another pull of the ears of reality to the opinion (such a wish) of a foreign author.

    It’s about "multiculturalism" that the author went overboard. I will keep quiet about such great cultures as Tatar, Buryat, etc. Most recently I was in Tafalaria. This is a people living at the junction of the Sayan and Kuznetsk Alatau. There are just over a thousand of them, purebred tafalars. But they kept their culture, language, customs. And no one ever (even in Soviet times) oppressed them, they only helped to express themselves. And in general, such a number of peoples living peacefully in one state is characteristic only of Russia, and this once again confirms its greatness. The cowardly and deceitful destroys everything around, kills - eliminating rivals and competitors. This is what the indigenous mattress country has done and is doing, and much of the Geyropa in many parts of the world.

          Then call it good neighborly relations.
          And multiculturalism (culture from the word cult / religious view of the nation /) is precisely aimed at etching this very cult from the indigenous population, i.e. Christianity, which, in fact, is mentioned in the article, under the sauce of respect for the cultures of other nations.
          Multiculturalism is, of course, a beautiful word, but bearing a rotten basis.
          There is a Russified, normal word - internationalism, the equality of all nations. For Russians, this was called Christian tolerance.

A civil marriage is not cohabitation without registration, as you think, but a marriage registered not according to the canons of the Orthodox/other faith, including a marriage registered by the registry office.

      Nowadays, many expressions have acquired a completely different meaning. Example: “to steal” - before - “to carry”, now - “to steal”. Previously, “blue” was just a color, now it’s (the admin doesn’t miss the word). So it is with the concept of civil marriage. If the marriage took place through the registry office, without the participation of the church, it was a civil marriage. Now - fornication! The Russian language does not stand still, it develops, the interpretations of words and phrases change. I'm not sure that you will understand Russian well with his speech of the 13th-14th centuries. But this is the same Russian language with modern concepts. So “Civil marriage is fornication” is a completely modern and understandable interpretation.

    Now there was an acute shortage of the guardians of the values ​​of Christianity, and Putin realized that he had a good opportunity to take advantage of this. China will not do this, Africa will not, and South America will not and will not. However, like Vladimir the Great, who baptized Kievan Rus, like Charlemagne, who helped Christianity to gain a foothold in Europe, Putin was able to independently raise this cross.

    Totally agree!
    It so happened that it was Russia, and precisely under Putin, that would become the center of Christianity. Unperverted, instilling goodness and mercy towards others.
    Anthony Khrapovitsky once talked about his conversation with a Lutheran woman who converted to Orthodoxy. Her words: “It was not clear to me that Orthodox priests are doing everything in order to scare people away from Orthodoxy, and Protestant priests are luring their flock in every possible way, entertaining and making a show out of the services. And the result: the number of Orthodox parishioners is increasing, while that of Protestants and Catholics is decreasing "At first I became interested in why this was happening. And having become acquainted with Orthodoxy, I realized that the Truth is here."

    Gentlemen, comrades, dear smart people, in this article (yes, a so-so article..) you did not consider what the author meant. In Russia, with its gigantic gap between those who produce and those who consume, it is possible to carry out, without fear of the Decembrists and, relying on the support of the “electorate,” a policy that does not greatly infringe on the interests of the oligarchs, because in the end it strengthens their positions. But the external attributes fully meet the interests of ordinary people: conciliarity, humanity, etc. Between these trends lies a huge distance.

    The Eastern Slavs have always developed the ideas of brotherhood, camaraderie, mutual assistance, non-covetousness, asceticism, honor, and this has nothing to do with the Christian religion that was alien and imposed on our people, which rather tried to monopolize those bright sides of our people that are inherent in it in connection with historical , evolutionary and climatic conditions.
    In the USSR, where religion was persecuted with a filthy broom in a completely correct manner, everything was much better with morality, ethics and ethics than in the dark, slave tsarist empire.

    The greatness of the Country is connected with the greatness of its Leader. Let Putin be the next Tsar of Russia, but if he succeeds in strengthening Russia’s position in the world, creating a decent life for Russians, we will support him. History will appreciate him.

    Today, in many countries, moral and ethical standards are being revised, national traditions and differences between nations and cultures are being erased.
    What's good about this phenomenon? Do blacks from Africa bring their culture to Europeans? What is the meaning of multiculturalism? Loincloths are as at home in the Louvre as skis at the equator. True multiculturalism is possible only when a culture continues to exist in the conditions that gave birth to it. Humanity is, in principle, diverse, this is the result of our history. Attempts to merge everything together and create a single culture cannot in any way be called multiculturalism.

    A policy is being pursued that puts large families and same-sex partnerships, faith in God or faith in Satan on the same level... This is a direct path to degradation.
    The propaganda of pederasty is based on the thesis that this is the norm. In turn, this is based on the assertion that homosexuality is not a disease. But these are different statements. Not everything that is not normal is a disease. By definition, the disease must either end in recovery or progress and lead to death. It seems that old homosexuals don’t fuck cows and big rats... that is. They don’t progress, and they don’t die from their addictions. But there is another definition of disease - dysfunction of an organ. They cannot reproduce. There is one more condition that most closely matches. This is an ugliness. So it cannot progress, and, unfortunately, there are problems with recovery. It’s clear about the dysfunction.

    why not the king? I, as a monarchist, am only in favor! a tsar is necessary - someone must be responsible for everything... and Putin has already secured for himself the nickname traditionally given to tsars - Collector of Lands smile
    and Christian values ​​are in every way better than the propaganda of homosexuality... the dog would be with them, with these fagots, but active propaganda is simply infuriating... legalized same-sex marriage, legalized pedophilia - yes, this was not legalized even in Ancient Rome... no-no , better than the 10 commandments...

      He is too old for the royal title, and he does not have a son-heir. It won't work out with a reign, even with a strong desire.

    quote: "This means that we will have to play second fiddle again - and the last thing Russians would like now is to be like us."
    Who are they similar to, gay-lesbian Europe? We are Russians. we are SLAVS! We don’t want to be like anyone, We want to be who we are, and we will always carry this understanding of our SLAVIC WORLD and understanding of our community - the understanding that we are all RUSSIAN! And let someone try to tell us that this is not so. LET'S TEAR IT TO RAGS! Because. that we are all RUSSIAN!

    Putin may well perceive his state as the “Third Rome”

    How many years have passed since the time of Ivan Vasilyevich? And it just starts to dawn on them? It seems that “Western civilization” has Estonian roots...

    Well...
    as long as they are sure that tolerance is always good...
    that we must repent (I’m not going to! I’m not guilty before them!)...
    that Russia is a loser (defeated) ...
    as long as they have such analysts...
    I'm calm for us.
