    It feels like we are going through some weird inverse of the Cold War where Trump is Khrushchev and Europe is China.

    His linked sources are also pretty funny.

    I skimmed the one about the AfD and BSW having ties to Russia. It’s a hit piece from German state media where the “evidence” of said ties are the anti-war and anti-escalation policies those parties have.

      That’s basically the lib narrative, if you want the war to stop then you’re a Putler puppet. End of story.

    “It turns out the Soviets — er, the Russians — won. The U.S. has become Russia, not the other way around. The U.S. lost the Cold War — not to communism, but to autocracy.”

    Imagine a liberal version of “On the Jewish question”, but Russian instead

    {The Russian Federation} reaches its highest point with the perfection of {aUtOcRaCy}, but it is only in the {Western} world that {aUtOcRaCy} attains perfection. Only under the dominance of {the West} , which makes all national, natural, moral, and theoretical conditions extrinsic to man, could {aUtOcRaCy} separate itself completely from the life of the state, sever all the species-ties of man, put {aUtOcRaCy} in the place of these species-ties, and dissolve the human world into a world of {totalitarian} individuals who {obediently supervise} one another.
