It seems like a lot of brown people just love Putin.

The Algerian manager of this restaurant in Paris kicks out two Ukrainian women while telling them “glory to Putin.”

I think the reason why many brown people living in the West support Putin could be really simple: Russia represents a more multiracial (less White) country that has the potential to dominate a Whiter country. A lot of brown people living in western countries feel alienated, which breeds ressentiment within them.

How do I know this? Because as a non-White person, I know how they feel, I obviously don’t agree with how they think/feel, but I have a greater ability to step into their turd-world shoes and imagine how they feel. I think they see Ukraine as this representation of a Whiter, more western country — like the ones that make them feel alienated and filled with ressentiment— being (potentially) humbled and defeated by a less White country (something more relatable to them) and they love it, they love that possibility. They identify more with Russia and Putin simply because Ukraine is the Whiter country in the conflict.

Just my two cents.

If the Mongols were still around, still trying to invade Europe, you would have people on Telegram cheering for the “based Golden Horde,” arguing how they’re necessary as a counterbalance against Western Liberalism by applying pressure on Western countries to quit accepting clown-world-culture so they can fight back.

But this whole outlook is going to backfire and ruin the credibility of all the Putin simps, because first of all, the Russians aren’t even competent enough to be a this threatening “counterbalance” that they think will scare the West straight. And I think that, regardless of outcome of the war in Ukraine, Western governments will just double down on imposing globohomo culture, even if the RAF were at their doorstep gearing up for invasion.

TL;DR: the “counterbalance” argument used by the Putin simps is garbage.

The ultimate virtue signal: Imagine being this proud you got the jab.

Hey, remember when people in the dissident right were saying “the Sri Lankans are showing us how to take our government back! See, you don’t need the 2nd Amendment!” when the Sri Lankans protested REALLY HARD and occupied government buildings? Did that work? How’s that going? I never forgot about that, I just checked on Sri Lanka today.

Protesting by itself accomplishes nothing, occupy a state building does nothing, getting a leader to resign will NOT get you your government back. The regime will just pretend to concede to people’s demands to calm them down and buy itself time, then they’ll use their armed forces to shut it all down. Might makes right, every single time.

I’m not saying people shouldn’t protest or that protesting does absolutely nothing at all, what I’m saying is that it’s usually not nearly enough to get actual change — just as having a contrarian opinion doesn’t change the objective reality around you. This is especially true if your protests don’t align with the will of the establishment.

Eli Harman once made the point that voting is a substitute for violence, and I think that’s how we should look at it. Not everyone should vote, not every even wants to vote, but if you deny voting rights from people that want political representation, these people will become disaffected, and you ought to expect violence and revolution from disaffected peoples. That’s why it better for people to live in separate, culturally and racially homogeneous countries — you know, Nationalism. One size does not fit all.

The point of voting should be to mitigate the potential for a disaffected population, to avoid civil wars.

Most Americans don’t support the LGBTQ+ agenda, imagine that! But people online act like the American people (rather than Jews) embrace this shit and want to export it worldwide.

So many people in the dissident right act like they look forward to seeing dictators rising up in the West, but in Canada they already have one.

“I want a dictator, but like dude, he has to believe in everything I believe in!”

It’s sentiments like these that remind me that not everyone should just be given the right to vote.

When you don’t understand incentives and you have such an incredible lack of foresight that you fail to see how it could all go wrong, you shouldn’t even be allowed to vote for the mayor of a small town, let alone a country. You might as well sign a legal document that says you waive all of your rights.

The whole point of a dictator is that he has the power to do whatever he wants, not what your people want or what you want. That’s why it’s absurd to say “I want a rightwing dictator.”

What’s the point in having political opinions if you want a form of government that can totally ignore you and remove your ability to punish them? Look at China or North Korea as examples of what I’m talking about.

Wagner contractor testing armor used by a Ukrainian. He’s shocked to see that it actually works; likely due to how poorly most Russian armor (often just cardboard as has been well documented since their Afghan war) works…
