He sounds like a typical WOKE western "liberal" all confused thinking and contradictory in nature. Espouses one thing but lives another.
I recall years back in the 1970's there was a housing project in NYC Queens that was largely populated at the time by people of European ancestry. The city management was considering allowing "minorities" into the project in much larger numbers. Meetings were held and tenants could state their views on this many were opposed. One big mouth liberal yeah he was a "rootless cosmopolitan" was angrily declaring we should let them in, "give them a chance, after all they're people too" blah blah blah. Anyway the quota changed and the "minorities" poured in. Well a short while later this clown is in his house and he hears a girl screaming in the street. He looks out his window. What does he see? His daughter running to the building screaming in terror as two "minority" girls chased he one swinging a belt buckle at her. She just made it to safety. Well what does he old man do? Nothing except that within three months they moved out. "You can't live among animals." was his comment. He moved out leaving then rest of his folk in the dumpster surrounded by the "minorities" that quickly wrecked the project. This is the true "classical liberal" we love you...from afar.
I see this mentality is the world over. Louis Malia the late historian wrote a book many years back I read in graduate school. Part of the book was studying revolutionaries. His conclusion? Most radicals, leftists and revolutionaries were emotionally and mentally disturbed. Think about it and look around at today's societal dystopia.
Yeah, more than anything, we are just being ruled by the mentally deranged. And their mental illness is spreading and infecting otherwise normal people.
Yes we are and doesn't it prove our point that so called "liberal democracy" AKA oligarchic crony capitalism doesn't truly deliver except for crass consumerism, and debt slavery. It's interesting today I had to get my car serviced. While I was waiting I chatted up a guy from Serbia. I asked him when has life been better there today or under the old Yugoslavia? He
didn't hesitate paraphrasing, "Oh much better back in the day we were better off less crime, less blatant corruption, life was great cheap housing, free schools colleges medicine, workers were well provided for, paid vacations and we all got along. Serbs, Croatians, Bosnians no troubles between us. Now it's all a wreck Tito was not bad we had much better lives." Interesting you hear this from the authoritarian left, and I've heard similar appraisals from the authoritarian right from people that lived under Pinochet in Chile. Almost identical in their nostalgia for the good old days. Seems nobody has much love for the "free market" and "democracy.
I also know a gal in Saint Petersburg she's thrilled. Why? She was on a seven year waiting list for a flat in a government house. Told me she only has to pay for heat/hot water, electricity and internet. No rent. Is that on the level? Sounds almost too good to be true.
Bottom line from my vantage point Imperial Russia and other authoritarian governments look better and better. Any thoughts?
Sounds like my own Boomer mother. She's a card-carrying, Biden loving liberal. But she's of Germano-Swedish stock, lives in a lily white suburb, and I've heard her talk about how proud she is of her (and my) blue eyes and how we're a dying breed. It sounds positively Aryan when she talks that way LOL.
Hi Rolo! Have you heard of German Sterligov? I've been bingewatching his interviews on yt for the past few days.
Apart from being vocally anti-abortion, an old school Orthodox Christian, an ex-multimillionnaire, publicly anti-lgbt and etc other based things, he talked about:
Selling off all that Russian land to China and bringing all those white Russians closer to Moscow;
Fencing off Chechnya and giving them more land and sending other Chechens there....and being good neighbors;
Better having a small Rus but having stay Russian than a big multinational bordello that what it is now...
He's a proponent of bringing back русское крестьянство (Russian peasantry)... And also turning off electricity worldwide... For ecological reasons. He's convinced we're being depopulated... And his argumentation is so... Convincing. If anything he's fun to watch. Fascinating guy. Check him out and if you're living in Moskovskaya oblast you should go visit his Sloboda!! And post about it here.
I mean I like what he says about traditional living, but everything else is just myopic doomer mentality. He knows how to make his own bread, but knows nothing about politics.

It's really quite reminiscent of 1984 doublethink.

I don't like him.
