Solzhenitsyn and Limonov Could Have Saved the Russians in Kazakhstan

We should have listened.

This is not going to be an extensive overview of the post-Soviet history of Kazakhstan. Like I did with my article on Gongadze, this is just a human interest piece, but one that ties many different threads and themes together. It is worth mentioning the volatile situation that Kazakhstan finds itself in today and the eerie parallels that it has to the Ukraine situation, which you should already be familiar with if you read my previous deep dive articles from behind the paywall.

Now, the purpose of this series of paywalled posts is to prepare you to be able to stalk the Slavlands. You will need the esoteric and hidden lore contained here to be able to navigate the misinformation miasma that chokes the land and drives its denizens mad. It is dangerous out there and you simply won’t last a second without becoming a Slavland stalker first.

If I were you, I’d get into the safe zone behind the paywall quick. Misinformation levels on the outside are rising dangerously high.

Get out of there, Stalker!

Life is a strange thing. After losing my job in Russia, I got an offer from the Kazakhs to work in their media. The job was pretty easy and I was mildly interested in learning about the country because my family used to live there in the Soviet days, so I took the offer. I actually learned literally nothing of any actual value about Kazakhstan at all. State media is like that everywhere you look - it’s chockfull of details and dates and official statements, but it has literally nothing of any actual value to share. It is a circus show that does nothing to inform anyone about anything of any actual value occurring in the country.

So, in January of 2022, when mass protests turned violent and it looked like the government of President Tokayev was about to be toppled almost overnight, I was taken completely by surprise. This is because I was consuming a lot of Kazakh state media at the time, so, naturally, I was actively being disinformed about the real state of affairs in the country.

I asked around with my colleagues for an explanation of what was happening, but they didn’t seem to know either. Well, one woman who was involved in the opposition movement seemed to be somewhat in the know. From what I gathered, she basically believed that President Tokayev was a Russian stooge who served Putin and worked to oppress the Kazakh people who had risen up to overthrow him.

This was, of course, total bullshit. But, I did believe that she believed it.

Anyways, it was only when I started following Kazakh opposition channels that my eyes began to open to the absolute political and ethnic powder keg that was Kazakhstan. Then, it was just a matter of consulting the guardians of the elder lore of the Russian Nationalist movement to fill in the rest of the gaps.

Here’s what I found.

First of all, keep the Ukraine pre-coup template in mind as we begin to explore the situation in Kazakhstan.

Ukraine: anti-Russian mobsters in power accused by people even more anti-Russian than them of being in cahoots with Russia.

Ukraine: Russia leasing land from the government as part of a post-USSR agreement.

Ukraine: a Russian government that thinks it can simply bribe the ruling elite into neutrality and does nothing to prepare for the bloodletting that will happen eventually.

You get the point, hopefully.

Now, there have been many Russian nationalists who warned of what would happen in Kazakhstan sooner or later if the government in Moscow did nothing and let the situation deteriorate.
