The term conservatism is meaningless unless you specify what exactly it is supposed to conserve.

If we talk about conserving power of the ruling class, then western “progressives” are actually conservative. Great reset is a counter-revolution attempting to restore feudalism.

Russia’s politics is actually progressive as it is attempting to destroy dominance of global financial capital.

5 or 6 years ago or so Scandinavia was a different place economically and culturally since that time US influence has changed it relatively quickly. Apparently very conservative Diesen speaks about the ‘Russian invasion’ as most people disagreeing with it. Well if you take for granted US propaganda as fact then you would. The US is fighting for democracy freedom and all that stuff. In 1935 Major Smedley Butler proclaimed no; war is a racket it was all about profit for the corporations and access to and controlling a countries resources. And there is no more autocratic an organisation than… Read more »

Another example of what the anglosphere neocon graduate school indoctrination centers poop out as evidenced by his sneering, cynical takes on Russian motivations and integrity, which don’t stand up to reality even as they are lapped up in the globalist/neoliberal/neocon cesspool he shares with other like-minded minions. To be fair, he’d probably lose his job if he spoke admiringly about Russia due to his totalitarian overlords currently running the collective west. But what else can you expect from a British Army Intelligence guy who then moved into academia to propagate those values? Alexander and Glenn are brilliant as usual. Thank… Read more »

The Russia UKR business is as much an example of world wide ethnic assertion as it is the last stand of Christendom. Despite decades of efforts to join the West, it is now clear that Russia has accepted its rejection and must find other very different friends. Christianity in the West is being rapidly snuffed out by rampant moral decline, scrounging for progressive materialism and systemic Christophobia. Examples of this spiritual decline are legion but the event that crystallized the cancer was the recent transsexual shoot out at the Christian school in the USA. No manifesto for you says the… Read more »
