Putin's finest hour:

"Upon becoming President of the Russian Federation in 2000, Vladimir Putin summoned the most powerful business oligarchs of Russia to [Stalin's dacha at] Kuntsevo in what Sergei Pugachev (a participant in that meeting) described as a "very symbolic" move; another participant, Mikhail Khodorkovsky, said that by summoning them to Kuntsevo and by sitting in Stalin's office, Putin "wanted us to understand that we, as big businessmen, may have some power, but it is nothing compared to his power as the head of state."

Capitalists need the constant menace of the Red Scare if they are to behave. Contrast this to "liberal democracies," in which businessmen basically buy politicians and dictate policies to suit them.

This provides some insight into why sanctions don't deter Putin: economic sanctions only work on those who put money and commerce above all considerations of identity, nation, and state. Putin rejects that value system.

Every bad take on this war begins by reframing it so it is entirely about the US vs. Russia. Why complicate a narrative by dragging the Ukrainians into it?

I see it very differently. I stand for sovereign states versus empires. So the choice is clear. Ukraine has the right to choose its allies. They have suffered oppression and atrocities at the hands of Russians and have every reason to want to get into NATO and the EU. Russia's invasion of Ukraine crosses a moral line.

I hope that this crisis can be ended as quickly as possible, without escalation into another World War. The mindlessness and hysteria of Western "elites" are extremely dangerous.

But it is another form of mindlessness to decide that since you don't like Nancy Pelosi, you are going to root for Vladimir Putin.

The Maidan was a real revolution. Donetsk and Luhansk are Russian ops.

Here is something that most Westerners don't understand:

Nationalism in Eastern Europe exists in REALITY, while nationalism in the West only exists in THEORY, in Nationalist Narnia. Eastern Europeans have nations that they care about and are prepared to fight for. Nationalism in the West is hypothetical — it exists only as a political video game online, in the Metaverse.

The overwhelming reaction among Right-wingers in the West has been that Ukrainians should give up their REAL nationalism for purely THEORETICAL benefits. The country that suffered the Holodomor should accept being ruled by the Post-Soviet Empire, literally governed by a former KGB agent. Because American wiggers posting in forums think that would be "based" in their video game nationalism.

If Russia is the only force in the world that can protect nations from THE GAY, then what about other countries in Eastern Europe? What about Poland and Lithuania? They have managed to remain relatively normal in spite of being members of both EU and NATO. Should they ask to be ruled by Putin's Russia in order to make sure they don't become transvestites?

This is all extremely embarrassing and Marie Antoinette-ish, to be honest.

Probably the most honest analysis of the situation you'll see on a mainstream network

Imagination is an amazing thing. Spectators feel that THEY have won something when their sportsball team wins a game. Their T levels even go up.

How much of the Western reaction to the Russia-Ukraine war is just political spectator sports, where people choose Team Russia or Team America, and the Russia boosters feel they are beating Nancy Pelosi and George Soros when Russian troops advance?

Spencer J. Quinn on why Dissident Rightists should look at the war in Ukraine from the perspective of how it affects white interests and not split over issues that don't directly concern them. https://counter-currents.com/2022/03/legitimate-controversy-over-the-russian-ukrainian-war/

If the US were attacked tomorrow, and you picked up a gun to defend your home, would you be "fighting for Joe Biden and Nancy Pelosi"?

On the latest episode of Counter-Currents Radio, Greg Johnson read and discussed his essay “Three Pillars of White Identity Politics” and, of course, answered YOUR QUESTIONS, and it is now available for download and online listening. https://counter-currents.com/2022/03/counter-currents-radio-podcast-no-420-greg-johnson-on-the-three-pillars-of-white-identity-politics/

Three decades ago, America had a choice: to bring post-Soviet Russia into the First World or drive her into the Third World. Imagine if the Russian resource superpower entered the EU 30 years ago. With European technology and capital + Russian resources, all Eurasia would have become enormously prosperous. Imagine if the Russian military superpower had been brought into NATO. China, Islam, & the global south would have been denied Russian patronage for decades while Europe would have grown invincible.

Sadly, though, American foreign policy was outsourced to psychotic Jews. Now it is clear that China will be the primary beneficiary of economic integration with Russia.

It is shameful that, instead of using their own heads and consulting their own principles and interests, lazy and mindless frog people root for Putin based simply on the fact that people they don't like support Ukraine.

Question for retards: How do the risks of dying in a global thermonuclear war compare to the risks of dying from Covid-19?

How do the risks of dying in a global thermonuclear war compare to the risks of dying from Covid-19? I need to know, because many of the people who would "pay any price, bear any burden" to prevent a single person from dying of COVID are now advocating policies that risk escalating into WWIII.

Remember how far you were willing to go to save people from Covid?

How far are you willing to go to avoid dying in World War III?
