This is a banger. It's been downloaded and PDF-ed it for posterity - never know when Substack will crater. Keep these backgrounders going - I keep learning about how little I know.

Of course I dont quite agree with that take, Surkov wasnt actually supposed to succeed in Ukraine and Nashi was squashed before it got out of the Kremlins control and he succeeded admirably in laying the groundwork for Zanon. But the above take is very much what a semi normie Russian Patriot thinks.

The big question IMO is why was he actually thrown under the bus? Thats almost unheard of if you are a Kremlin made man. They will actually move heaven and earth to bale out their own, even their own that are exclusively liabilities. Medvedchuk is exhibit A. So just what did he do? You have to be a Simplicitus subscriber to think it was about the stealing.

No doubt, the bullshit paradigms keeping the people-peasants ignorant about their own countries, and their enemies, is no bloody accident. โ€œThey,โ€ both media and government media spokespeople & hard news writers working for the CIA, Mossad, MI666โ€ฆare professionals; manipulative psyop whores who all work for the less-than 1% few ultra-wealthy elites, and I truly hate them all, as I do โ€œtheirโ€ wars.

As Iโ€™m about to cross-post Roloโ€™s article to my Notes for my subscribers, I just wanted to add this requestโ€”emphasizing how important it is that you subscribe to his Substack. He needs more โ€œstalkersโ€ for sound sustainability, so I can then fulfill my only mission in life: Help Americans and many of the other 7 billion or so blind sheeple of our world overcome their most horrible, deadly diseaseโ€”whom most seem completely unaware they sufferโ€”and is killing our entire world: โ€œCranial-Rectal-Inversion.โ€ Itโ€™s an ugly disorder to witness, and takes great courage from those suffering from it to acknowledge, just like the wars it traps our entire world to.

I believe Rolo is one of thousands of incredible minds who can help Americans, the English, Russian-Ukrainians, the Chineseโ€ฆwho suffer this terrible, but curable disease, by pulling their heads out of their self-fulfilling โ€œend-of-timesโ€ cave, so they can begin thinking about the realities of our world most refuse to acknowledgeโ€”though in plain sight.

There are thousands of brilliant writer-historians familiar with Russia who โ€œunderstandโ€ the truths, but only a few of them are willing to โ€œspeak the truth,โ€ forgoing extreme riches and fame only available to those who will lie for their wealthy masters. The contrast between the very rich and the very poor, and how much more the poor majority are always willing to give up compared to the few rich media personalities, sickens me. Particularly the rich, bought talking-heads of mainstream media. You over-paid, famous whores of mainstream media know full well what Iโ€™m saying is the truth, and that you are complete frauds, just like the extreme salaries, gifts and 1st amendment privileges you abuse as you accept those luxuries only to publish extreme lies for the psychological experts of our โ€œintelligence agencies.โ€

โ€œThem,โ€ the โ€œthey botsโ€ need us to hate and destroy each-other, and Iโ€™m one of millions who are doing everything in his power to end it, forever. So, readers, all I ask of you is to please consider a free subscription to The Slavland Chronicles, and share, helping me educate the peasants & plebs. As you learn to enjoy Roloโ€™s raw perspectives about Russian-American relations and the global geopolitical madness our countries are responsible for, youโ€™ll end up a paid subscriber in time. Some of you wealthy readers may even turn into full-on โ€œStalkersโ€ by the end of the month.โ€”jeff lubina

Rolo Slavsyiy: โ€œTo the Americans they sell a controlled two-ended narrative about Russia where Putin is either Hitler or Putin is Jesus. To the Russians they do the same thing about America and the Americans who live there. To some Russians they are rabid Imperialist dogs who donโ€™t even treat their poor negri well. To others, the streets in America are literally paved with gold and everyone has a servant to wipe their ass for them, that is how good they have it. There is literally no one in Russia providing a sober perspective of what America is and was and has become. It is all just comical caricature pushed by people who mostly donโ€™t even speak the language or know anything about the culture.

This should sound familiar.

All of this is by design, by the way. Both ends of the caricatures representing Russia and America serve the interests of the elite because if the peasants could look around and realize just how similar their respective elitesโ€™ were, they might start asking questions about just how fake and controlled this whole paradigm that we are in now is.โ€

Surkov's twitter account is worth reading even if he doesn't post anything much these days but going through them was interesting. after i commented on two of his old tweets he hit like (which surprised me, his likes were few and just on ones where big shot writers had written about him years before) so he obviously checks to see if anyone is still paying attention. three days after this happened my extremely small and i thought unnoticed account got 'permanently suspended'.

Hello to all,

For those that are interested, Thierry Malleret, the long-time second-in-charge at the World Economic Forum has an illuminating career that Rolo got wrong because he does not know enough about France and Europe. Here comes the light.

From his biography on the WEF website, Thierry Malleret (TM) has a joint PhD in economics from Oxford University and the Ecole des Hautes Etudes en Sciences Sociales (EHESS). EHESS is an ecumenical ultra leftist den with a very nice building in the centre of Paris : marxists, trotskyists, leninists, stalinists, maoists, negro-maniacs, arabo-revolutionaries and many other anti-capitalist sects teach and grant diplomas there. The only non-ultra-leftists there are repentant ones : they are marginalised and usually do not teach or mentor PhD candidates. One cannot imagine what economics TM learnt there ; albeit one thins is sure : it was crazy. That EHESS and Oxford Uni can grant a joint diploma displays an incredible porosity between the anglo-saxon capitalist world and the French anti-capitalist madness.

TM went to work for the prime minister's office straight after graduation ! An incredible feat. The prime minsters office would employ about 40-50 people to liaise with the presidency and other ministries for policy decisions and prepare advice. The prime minister was Michel Rocard, a socialist, a phenomenal curse on France. His feats. (1) Largest tax hikes in the 20th century (7-8 GDP points), more than for each the two world wars + large budget deficit. (2) Bureaucratic colonisation of large firms with high ranking civil servants joining the boards or the upper echelons of management. (3) Economic intervention through high taxes and punctual tax breaks, effectively ending the independence of economic actors. Thus investments are no longer allocated for efficient commercial production but for tax-optimisation. Government-lobbying and corruption became an important function for businesses. (4) Record influx of immigrants and shift from European origin to African origin in spite of the collapse of communist countries. He actively expelled Eastern Europeans and showed that on TV to discourage the arrivals. But open borders for Africans. (5) The cover-up of a major crime : tens of thousands of patients were transfused with blood contaminated with AIDS and other major incurable diseases. That crime surfaced a decade later and was prosecuted at snail-pace resulting in light sentences 25 years afterwards.

Enough for now. TM played and active role in setting these horrific economic policies that still beset France. Once Rocard was ousted, TM worked for an American think-tank. So an ultra-leftist scholar that had just worked on maiming the French economy and economic culture was was hired by the ultra-capitalist Americans. Food for thought...

He was hired in a senior position by the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) at its creation. EBRD was created by Jacques Attali, a prominent French Jew, and leader of the presidential team that worked on the economical horrors above. EBRD makes loans to former communist countries in Eastern Europe and the Caucasus : loans are intended for infrastructure and have a counterpart in legal reforms that strengthen private property and foreign-owned property; oversight is loose and the local ruling class can embezzle with abandon; the loans stay on the books of countries and are regularly rolled over if the local ruling class stays compliant; otherwise they have to pay. EBRD was very successful and the forerunner to the Washington looting consensus; the Chinese Belt and Road initiative is also modelled on the EBRD.

TM was an actor of all this liberating economic initiative. From there he was hired by the equally-Jewish Alfabank where he brought his recipes for the enslavement of economic actors. After his stint in Russia, TM went to work for Klaus Schwab at the World Economic Forum, the very center of capitalism and free markets. He eventually took a position in a boutique investment firm for the ultra-rich because life in Switzerland is expensive, Klaus Schwab is stingy, and his books do not sell well.

TM exemplifies the proximity between between the ultra-left, the top capitalists, and the deep-states, in spite of media-spread ideological battles and of the apparent conflict in economic interests.

Enjoy the rest of your day...

apologies if i got it wrong. a french reader who i respect shared the information with me and the russia parts checked out. thanks for adding to it.

I'm thinking (and this is not original with me of course) there are two roots to the collapse of our civilization: 1) the genetic (especially IQ) deterioration of our population; and 2) the ossification and sheer mass of bureaucratic inertia. The longer a civilization remains viable, the greater the mass of bureaucrats, who know how to game the system to increase their resources. This results in the phenomenon you described: all activity is directed towards holding power and stealing resources, rather than producing anything.

The system ultimately collapses because due to the genetic deterioration, which affects the elite as well as the masses, they increasingly throw their own children under the bus. Logic will tell you that importing millions of unskilled, hostile, totally-alien, often psychopathic immigrants into western countries will prove fatal to the whole system of organization and power that the elites play so well.

I can't believe there are only 16 comments on what is going to become a seminal reference. For some reason I am associating Pelevin as the Russian Philip K. Dick. I suppose I'm not the first one who sees Nashi as Nazi. A rather heavy-handed pun.

Damn! That was a lot to take in. I understand now why you asked how to survive prison, no doubt they don't want this information put out there, you're putting an X on your back

Don Smith's avatar

That's pretty damn optimistic, I thought you were a doomer, getting bought off is the best thing that could happen. The world is in a giant ass gang war, there's no white hats involved, propaganda is an important aspect of it, you're getting involved in a war by countering their propaganda and everyday you're getting more exposure. I read a lot, you're very talented and going to garner a lot of attention. Be smart, be careful.

If Iโ€™m a thorn in someoneโ€™s side the easiest thing to do would be to just buy me off!

Thatโ€™s what smart elites would do!

" there are no white hats involved" , agreed , but try to explain or convince any person of that. Every body has taken a side in the battle between good and evil. I have friends who are totally awake to the Covid fraud but will die for either Putin or Zelensky . The tell is that all the players are using the same pack of financial cards . Ok China has a closed capital account but their bankers and economists all got their degrees at Harvard and Yale and spent time with Dimon on Wall st. before going back to apply the same Ponzi in China. Russia was tutored by the same financial overlords under Yeltsin and the same applies all around, all the economies are central bank controlled fiat currency ponzis. It gets worse , reading the BRICS declaration from South Africa and comparing it to the G20 the two dogmas are almost the same , the only major difference is the BRICS refusal to go down the queer rabbit hole. It is easy to see that those who need a saviour do not go deep on any of the issues, they take their daily meal of Ritter or Brand or Escobar's junk food , consume it and that is where they get their mind nourishment from. Fear of being wrong keeps the blinkers on . The central problem is that folk are not really seeking out the truth , they don't question or investigate , they just defend their position and so it goes.

"WARNING: this essay gets a little bit high-brow and artsy in places and I have to talk a lot about modern literature and even touch on a little bit of art theory. Many of my more cognitively-challenged casual readers might think that this makes the essay a bit โ€œfruityโ€ on account of all the big, multi-syllable words that I have to use. Feel free to stop reading here if you suspect that words like โ€œpost-modernโ€ and โ€œavant-guardโ€ might turn you queer. Who knows, you may even be more right than you suspect about that โ€ฆ"

A gem!!!

It is after midnight and my brain is cratered after reading this.......so much to absorb...must sleep.....thanx for making such a massive effort to educate us peasants.....

I have recently heard that Surkov is the author of the books written under the pseudonym Pelevin. I've also heard that Western intelligence services help Pelevin write his books. Is there any validity in these claims?

Excellent expose of the deception, intrigue and manipulation that goes on in the underworld. This is true enlightenment to see evil laid bare. Keep it coming!!!!

a bit schizoposting indeed, but very interesting as usual,

the book by Palahniuk is called Adjustment Day, not Atonement day (mistake obviously due to your passion for jewish history :)

I sat down this morning at eight and have reread the entire article and looked at every link , it is now three fifteen! I am impressed with your depth of knowledge Rurick , if only my political minded friends would take a look a tour stuff too , alas they are waiting for the saviour Putin to slay the globalists and they cannot be awakened from their dream. Where in your blog can I find the details of what happened during and immediately after the Maidan in regard to the declaration of independence by the Eastern provinces and when and how the actual military conflict in the East started? Cheers .
