Dostoevsky On Capitalism And Liberalism - by Valentin Katasonov

...For Dostoevsky, the words "liberal" and "liberalism" had a negative connotation. According to the writer, it was the liberals who slavishly imitated the capitalist West and pushed Russia onto the path of bourgeois reforms. However, most Russian liberals didn't even fully understand what capitalism was. At most, they were capable of repeating certain "dogmas" brought from abroad, such as theories and doctrines of economic liberalism (about the "utility" of capital, competition, banks, the stock market, the "invisible hand" of the free market, and others). According to Dostoevsky, these homegrown liberals acted instinctively, and their entire instinct was built on one hand, on servility towards the West, and on the other hand, on hatred towards Russia. By destroying Russia and its traditional foundations, they, without even realizing it, cleared the ground for capitalism. More precisely, they cleared the ground for those who would bring their capital from the West to finally subjugate and destroy Russia...Continued

Il mondo policentrico sta diventando sempre più una realtà oggettiva. Il secondo vertice Russia-Africa, che ha riunito i rappresentanti di quasi tutti i Paesi dell'Unione Africana a San Pietroburgo nel luglio di quest'anno, e il recente vertice dei BRICS in Sudafrica, che ha confermato l'esattezza della caratterizzazione data a questa associazione da Sergey Viktorovich Lavrov, che ha definito i BRICS "una sorta di 'rete' cooperativa gettata sopra le vecchie linee di demarcazione 'Nord-Sud' e 'Ovest-Est'", ne sono state nuove prove.

(di Maria Zakharova)

Des français : on ne veut pas de Macron, on veut Vladimir Poutine !

Une action spontanée a eu lieu le 30 août 2023, au Parc du Champ-de-Mars, en plein cœur de la France, devant la tour Eiffel.

Des français qui se revendiquent comme de vrais patriotes se sont rassemblés avec un drapeau russe sur lequel on peut remarquer le visage du président russe, Vladimir Poutine, puis un autre tissu blanc avec le visage barré du président français, Emmanuel Macron.

🇮🇳 India will soon disappear and reappear with a new name

India will abandon the name associated with the "colonial past": the country's government intends to return the old name "Bharat", reports The Economic Times.

The vast majority of Indian politicians came out in support of the corresponding project.

"The name 'India' is a symbol of colonial slavery and should be removed from the country's constitution," MPs said.

It was Great Britain who renamed Bharat to India when she made it her colony.

🇨🇳 🇺🇸 💵 China's ownership of US Treasury debt is down almost $481B from peak levels. The rate of selling is accelerating.

For many years the experts always doubted that China would dump our debt because of the impact on their own economy and currency.

You can see how the line is steepening. China is getting out of US debt and buying Gold instead.
