how do I post a link without the thumbnail?
<> around the link I think
Dugin is a clown, most people in Russia don't even like him or take him seriously
how much nuance does this deserve?
Dugin is taken very seriously considering he wrote the geopolitical doctrine of Putin's Russia and is an oligarch targeted by the USA sanctions
if you want a non-rabid critique of US policy from a European perspective, you're better off with someone like Faye
>letting another mans thoughts into your head
@reactionarytree the extent of his influence is disputed
Jacob see dm
Read Foundations of Geopolitics, see that it is read by the Russian military and see the global chessboard unfolding - Dugin is quite influential

look at that header picture lmao
@Nemets КНОР - the ultimate Russian internet flamewar subject lol
these guys are cringe to the max
from everyone - the subject in general, not the book
how to fix russia
I was joking
@Virgil I remember you mentioning something about the Russian Communist party to me that I wanted you to elaborate more on but forgot to ask. Wikipedia didn't come up with too much.
Ukrainian nationalism should not be supported. It serves to create a larger wedge between the USA and Russia - a country we should have peace with. Russia could be a potential ally against China in the future.
what if we don't have to be friends with either country bc who gives a shit
the world will be dominated by the Chinese
@Kingfish Oh I can tell you about them. They're intersting. Their website has a lot of nationalistic rhetoric if you read it in Russian, but, they play nice around western communists. They actually signed some pro-refugee declaration in English, but if you actually read their website in Russian, they're real views are pretty different.
13% of the population but 53% of shitposting
who really cares if china dominates africa honestly
Ukraine is epic
@Sam Southern - TN we should. Lots of resources to be extracted there
@reactionarytree No, Russia and China are actually pretty close these days, they wouldn't jeopardize that relationship for the sake of allying with their nemesis the USA
bc at the end of the day, USA will not be able to be militarily antagonistic towards Russia and China (a country that holds most US debt)
I'd rather not have China be more powerful whether economically or militarily
@Alex Kolchak - NY I prefer not to take over other regions. I just want to be left alone
Russia and China are currently friends of convenience to counter American hegemony
isolationism is ideal but it has drawbacks that will leave us behind and our competition ahead.
well.. "friends"..
Russia does not want to be dominated by China in the future
From the Ukrainian perspective, Russia is a multi racial empire that wants to dominate their country.
@Nemets I literally created the Slav server so this *doesn't* happen. At least I'm not the one who started it.
@Kingfish I think I might have said something along the lines of the Russian Communist Party being fairly nationalistic and somewhat pro-white.
mods are asleep, re-fight the Russian Civil War!
Everyone who has the intention to Slav post, DM me for the Slav server so we stop shitting up this server
@Sam Southern - TN I think we can both agree we want America to be the strongest and most prosperous nation on the planet. If China surpasses us it can lead to problems down the line. Checking their expansion is important imo.
