Putin's Playbook In Action
Think about what has been happening for the last ten years, especially in the US, "If your opponent is united, divide him." The Art of War, Sun Tzu ...
“Within the United States itself, there is a need for the Russian special services and their allies "to provoke all forms of instability and separatism within the borders of the United States (it is possible to make use of the political forces of Afro-American racists)" (248). "It is especially important," Dugin adds, "to introduce geopolitical disorder into internal American activity, encouraging all kinds of separatism and ethnic, social and racial conflicts, actively supporting all dissident movements--extremist, racist, and sectarian groups, thus destabilizing internal political processes in the U.S. It would also make sense simultaneously to support isolationist tendencies in American politics" (367)." https://web.archive.org/web/20160607175004/https:/www2.gwu.edu/~ieresgwu/assets/docs/demokratizatsiya%20archive/GWASHU_DEMO_12_1/John%20Dunlop%20Aleksandr%20Dugin's%20Foundations%20of%20Geopolitics.pdf
Now, see these observations:
“Open season on whites
Why did Mr. Brodow write this book? He explains: “Whites are being demonized and marginalized at every turn. Any attempt to say, ‘I am proud to be white,’ is met with scorn and ridicule. I have become an advocate for white people. Thirty years ago, this never would have occurred to me.”
The author gives numerous examples of anti-white hate speech throughout the book:
Kamau Kambon, an African-American professor at North Carolina State University, told a panel at Howard University Law School, “We have to exterminate white people off the face of the planet.”
Nikole Hannah-Jones, creator of the 1619 Project, claims that “The white race is the biggest murderer, rapist, pillager, and thief of the modern world.”
Donald Moss, a psychoanalyst who teaches at the New York Psychoanalytic Institute, referred to whiteness as “a malignant parasitic-like condition to which white people have a particular susceptibility.”
New York Times editorial board member Sarah Jeong made social media posts saying, “cancel white people,” “white men are bullshit,” and “dumbass f—ing white people.”
As mayor of Chicago, Lori Lightfoot announced she would not grant interviews to white reporters.
Psychiatrist Aruna Khilanani told an audience at Yale School of Medicine that she has fantasies about killing whites.
President Joe Biden urged the graduating class at Howard University to “stand up against the poison of white supremacy . . . the most dangerous terrorist threat to our homeland.”
Pentagon diversity chief Kelisa Wing wrote the following on social media: “I’m exhausted with these white folx. This lady actually had the CAUdacity to say that black people can be racist too . . . I had to stop the session and give Karen the BUSINESS . . . .”
Texas A&M professor Tommy Curry believes blacks should openly talk about murdering whites so that whites believe that “death could come for them at any moment.””
Of course, there was no major outrage over these remarks, all of which came from powerful people in elite institutions.
It is not just individuals who detest whites. Entire companies, universities, and organizations have mandatory “diversity” training where they teach that whites are uniquely evil. The author quotes from one such program at Bank of America that claims white children “develop racial biases by ages 3–5.” Seattle city workers are told to examine their “complicity in the system of white supremacy.” Raytheon encourages white employees to “confront their privilege.” Coca-Cola is even more direct, telling employees, “Try to be less white.” One high school student gives a perhaps typical white response to diversity training:
“After a year of the people in charge telling me that I’m a racist and I’m privileged and pointing out our irreversible differences, I’ve never noticed race more and it’s become the first thing I notice when I meet someone — which has never before been the case.””

Again, Sun Tzu: "If your opponent is united, divide him."
And Aleksandr Dugin, from the first article mentioned: ““Within the United States itself, there is a need for the Russian special services and their allies "to provoke all forms of instability and separatism within the borders of the United States (it is possible to make use of the political forces of Afro-American racists)" (248). "It is especially important," Dugin adds, "to introduce geopolitical disorder into internal American activity, encouraging all kinds of separatism and ethnic, social and racial conflicts, actively supporting all dissident movements--extremist, racist, and sectarian groups, thus destabilizing internal political processes in the U.S.”
It seems like this has been done very effectively, to the point where Putin’s Stalinist dictatorship seems like an attractive place to live for many here in the US - and a lot of Americans are “Rootin’ for Putin”… There was a goal in mind for Dugin when he wrote this in 1997:
”As for the former union republics of the USSR situated within Europe, they all, in Dugin's view, (with the exception of Estonia) should be absorbed by Eurasia-Russia. "Belarus," Dugin asserts flatly, "should be seen as a part of Russia" (377). In similar fashion, Moldova is seen as a part of what Dugin calls "the Russian South" (343). On the key question of Ukraine, Dugin underlines: "Ukraine as a state has no geopolitical meaning. It has no particular cultural import or universal significance, no geographic uniqueness, no ethnic exclusiveness" (377). "Ukraine as an independent state with certain territorial ambitions," he warns, "represents an enormous danger for all of Eurasia and, without resolving the Ukrainian problem, it is in general senseless to speak about continental politics" (348). And he adds that, "[T]he independent existence of Ukraine (especially within its present borders) can make sense only as a 'sanitary cordon'" (379). However, as we have seen, for Dugin all such "sanitary cordons" are inadmissible. Dugin speculates that three extreme western regions of Ukraine--Volynia, Galicia, and TransCarpathia--heavily populated with Uniates and other Catholics, could be permitted to form an independent "Western Ukrainian Federation." But this area must not under any circumstances be permitted to fall under Atlanticist control (382). With the exception of these three western regions, Ukraine, like Belorussia, is seen as an integral part of Eurasia-Russia.”
And the elites in the US, and the institutions they control, are doing their utmost best to further this goal, by sending ineffective but very expensive military aid to Ukraine. This seems to have as its main purpose to keep Ukraine fighting but never able to achieve a decisive victory - another lucrative “forever war”, which will decimate the Ukrainian populace and in time, when the aid is cut off and the rug pulled out from under the Ukrainian people, a Russian/Eurasian victory. In combination with the tactics which divide the people of the US against each other - the identity politics, the “diversity training”, and the rest of the DEI program, and the turning of all levels of governance against the majority of the governed, the US itself may well fall into another authoritarian regime…
What we have here in the US is the heritage of a unique idea in a world of authoritarian governments, of power- and money-hungry pathocrats*:
“We hold these truths to be sacred & undeniable; that all men are created equal & independant, that from that equal creation they derive right inherent & inalienable, among which are the preservation of life, & liberty, & the pursuit of happiness; that to secure these ends, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed; that whenever any form of government shall become destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, & to institute new government, laying it’s foundation on such principles & organising it’s powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety & happiness. prudence indeed will dictate that governments long established should not be changed for light & transient causes: and accordingly all experience hath shewn that mankind are more disposed to suffer while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. but when a long train of abuses & usurpations, begun at a distinguished period, & pursuing invariably the same object, evinces a design to subject them to arbitrary power, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such government & to provide new guards for their future security.” Jefferson, Declaration of Independence, 1776.
Our current government, and all of our institutions and elite establishments have been corrupted and have turned against this idea, the very basis on which the United States were founded, and it has adopted the dictatorial goals and programs of those who oppose the “right[s] inherent & inalienable, … the preservation of life, & liberty, & the pursuit of happiness…” It is not only the right, but first and foremost the duty of the people oppressed by these governments and institutions, to alter or absolutely abolish them and their unlawful works.
====================================
pathocrat:
“A pathocracy can take many forms and can insinuate itself covertly into any seemingly just system or ideology. As such it can masquerade under the guise of a democracy or theocracy as well as more openly oppressive regimes.
Characteristics
1. suppression of individualism and creativity.
2. impoverishment of artistic values.
3. impoverishment of moral values; a social structure based on self-interest and one-upmanship, rather than altruism.
4. fanatical ideology; often a corrupted form of a valid viable ‘trojan’ ideology which is perverted into a pathological form, bearing little resemblance to the substance of the original.
5. intolerance and suspicion of anyone who is different, or who disagrees with the state.
6. centralized control.
7. widespread corruption.
8. secret activities within government, but surveillance of the general population. (In contrast, a healthy society would have transparent government processes, and respect for privacy of the individual citizen).
9. paranoid and reactionary government.
10. excessive, arbitrary, unfair and inflexible legislation; the power of decision making is reduced/removed from the citizens’ everyday lives.
11. an attitude of hypocrisy and contempt demonstrated by the actions of the ruling class, towards the ideals they claim to follow, and towards the citizens they claim to represent.
12. controlled media, dominated by propaganda.
13. extreme inequality between the richest and poorest.
14. endemic use of corrupted psychological reasoning such as paramoralisms, conversive thinking and doubletalk.
15. rule by force and/or fear of force.
16. people are considered as a ‘resource’ to be exploited (hence the term “human resources”), rather than as individuals with intrinsic human worth.
17. spiritual life is restricted to inflexible and indoctrinare schemes. Anyone attempting to go beyond these boundaries is considered a heretic or insane, and therefore dangerous.
18. arbitrary divisions in the population (class, ethnicity, creed) are inflamed into conflict with one another.
19. suppression of free speech – public debate, demonstration, protest.
20. violation of basic human rights, for example: restriction or denial of basic life necessities such as food, water, shelter; detainment without charge; torture and abuse; slave labour.” https://pathocracy.wordpress.com/definition/
