For as long as I’ve been seriously following geopolitics and politics in the West and Russia, I’ve been convinced that the winning move for the East is to simply wait their enemies out. A Fabian strategy, if you will.
While this always comes as a surprise to most big-city Russians, most of whom used to deny that such a thing was even possible, the West is collectively self-destructing at an alarming pace.
Average Americans and Europeans are only partially to blame for this.
Most of them remain committed to self-destructive ideas and behaviors, its true, but they were conditioned and primed to behave and think this way by a hostile foreign elite that gradually took over their countries in the last century and a half. The average person cannot think for themselves, and even if they could, they would not be able to begin acting in a constructive manner to avoid looming catastrophes in either their personal or nation’s life. Only forward-thinking elites are capable of taking non-reactive long-term measures and there is no elite to speak of in the West that thinks about their nation’s long-term interests. Everyone with power is committed to global government and the project for the liquidation of the nation-state and the destruction of their own peasantry.
Because of mass-migration, SJWism and the organized looting of the accumulated wealth of the West by the oligarchs, the future looks quite bleak. Furthermore, the coercive power of the West, which has acted as the collective mailed fist of ZOG since 1945, continues to decline. Taking all this into account, all that Russia or China or Iran have to do is to retreat behind their walls, stock up on provisions and wait it out.
There are three key things that Russia in particular has to do to defeat the West:
1. Block any and all cultural programming coming from the West in terms of media with a new digital Iron Curtain.
This is crucial because ZOG propaganda creates internal enemies at home; impressionable golem-puppets who are willing to either outright fight or clandestinely subvert the home front.
Russia needs “Cyber Sovereignty” like China has, now more than ever.
Luckily, there have been positive strides taken in this direction by the government with the banning of many Western media outlets and a clampdown on Western social media. More needs to be done on this front, and should have been done a decade ago, frankly.
2. Block any and all migration of hostile ethnic groups into the country and boost domestic population growth.
The future belongs to those who show up to claim it. How many Westerner Whites will be left in 10-20 years time? I half-expect the media to start calling for Rwanda-style machete killings of all White people in North America, soon. But so long as there are enough young Russians in 10-20 years time, the war with the West can be won without firing a shot. A nation of Messicans and mulattos is not a serious threat.
Luckily, although we do not have migration statistics for this year, we have reason to believe that the numbers are going to be very encouraging. Furthermore, a top-ranking Russian general, Aleksander Gorovoi, in the ministry of internal affairs (МВД) came out last year calling migrants a critical threat to Russia’s national safety and deportations followed.

We’re going to save Russia from migrants, come with us, bro!
3. Achieve economic self-sufficiency.
There will be a period of serious economic turmoil in the West because of the Ponzi scheme economic models that these countries have adopted. Should Russia transition to a real economy, one not based on speculation and monetary shenanigans, but on using Russia’s vast resources to create actual value, they will be better off in the long-run than the soon-to-be broke West.
Thanks to Western sanctions, Russia has no choice but to pursue this policy. The going will be tough and the import-substitution program that was implemented following the return of Crimea has been… flawed, to say the least. But the overall trend is encouraging.
…
Sadly, for most of Russia’s existence as a post-Soviet state, the country has copied everything that the West has done, albeit to a much lesser degree. The reason that Russia isn’t as hopeless as the West is only because they simply didn’t go as far as the West in promoting radical, self-destructive policies either for lack of time or lack of resources, or perhaps the moderating influence of people like President Putin.
Although much is still a total and complete bardak, the trajectory has noticeably changed. So long as Russia can continue gathering her strength and avoiding and all-out confrontation with the still superior combined military might of the West, she can out-wait her opponents and come out the victor.
That being said, all-out nuclear war would be pretty cool too.
Regarding the points, all of these can be recast in positive as supposed to negative directions.
1. Foster an entertaining and dynamic culture industry at home. Given the decay in Hollywood, the time has never been better. Further, this helps to project Russian cultural influence abroad, not only strengthening Russian soft power, but simultaneously weakening the soft power of the West.
2. Adopt policies to encourage high birth rates. Even getting to 2.5 children per woman would put Russia ahead of the West.
3. Achieving autarky isn't just about protecting against economic shocks. It also means an overall wealthier country. Raw resources are nice but value added manufacturing with your own resources is an unbeatable combo.
Obviously, establishing protective measures is also important; but a purely defensive posture seldom serves as anything but a delaying action in the long run.
“Russians, for the entirety of their history, have understood government to be a sacrosanct value, [and] as a repository for spiritual meaning. For centuries it was the realm of Russian Orthodox ideals, and in the 20th Century it was the global communism idea. But in all circumstances, Russia has always conceived of itself as a government endowed with higher meaning and purpose. It has a specific Russian purpose, which sets it apart from other, neighboring governments…..Only by focusing solely on the concept of eschatology, on telos, and the target, rather than on short-term benefits, can victory and success be realized.”

We see this in Putin’s almost superhuman endurance as he engages the degenerate West in a kind of geopolitical judo; his sponsorship of the симфония between Orthodox Church and Russian state; the praising of large families and hostility to radical feminism and homosexuality; and the patient application of Russia’s incredible military, diplomatic, and economic power to the great tasks of literally preserving the country from destruction, without losing the initiative to his enemies (internal and external). During his visit years ago to Mt. Athos, the monks gave him the traditional place of the Emperors of old, because they perceived with spiritual insight his true character and mission. Has he inspired enough men around him, especially younger men of the post-Soviet generation, to love and serve Russia like he has after he is gone? God I hope so. All of our fates are bound up with Russia’s, whether we know it or not, whether we like it or not.
