Resisting Cultural Genocide

[lordtiberius]

Reading Steamer's posts reminds me of Alexander Dugin:

Ukraine needs to be cleansed of idiots. A genocide of cretins suggests itself. Cretins who are virulent, closed for the voice of Logos, deadly and ... in addition to this, extremely stupid. I don't believe that these are Ukrainians. Ukrainians are a fine Slavic people. These are some race of bastards that emerged from the sewage.

With this in mind, I celebrate Ukrainian culture.

Here are some pictures I took of Mykola Lysenko - a Classical Music composer.

"The authentic high-principled Hitlerites, true Aryans Dugin, Prokhanov, Prosvirin, Kholmogorov, Girkin, Prilepin are a marginalized minority in Russia."[47][48] Piontkovsky adds, "Putin has stolen the ideology of the Russian Reich from the domestic Hitlerites, he has preventively burned them down, using their help to do so, hundreds of their most active supporters in the furnace of the Ukrainian Vendée."[47][48] In his interview to Radio Liberty, Piontkovsky says, maybe the meaning of the operation conducted by Putin is to reveal all these potential passionate leaders of social revolt, send them to Ukraine and burn them in the furnace of the Ukrainian Vendée. Moreover, this is namely what is prompted to him to do by collective Remchukov in his writings..

The Czech Legion slaughtered by the Bolsheviks . . a Russian military tradition?

I think you need to distinguish between "Russian" and "Soviet".  There are very few "Russians" now (or so I've been told, by those in the know), but a great many "Soviets".


Same with Ukrainians, BTW.

Just looking at the historical parallels.

Resist Putin

Celebrate Ukrainian culture.



I discovered Mykola Lysenko pushing the baby carriage around the Kiev Opera house where I stumbled across his statue.  I looked him up on wiki and youtubed his music,

I attached my favorite piece of music by him so far.  If you know the artist and can recommend something to me, please do.

Thank you

Russian Newspaper to Release Document That Allegedly Links Kremlin to Ukraine Invasion

Instead, Muratov claims the document reveals the Kremlin felt it had to intervene in Ukraine's escalating political crisis so that it could retain a primary market for Russian natural gas and continue to funnel gas to Western Europe through Ukrainian pipelines.


Ukrainian demonstrators sought closer economic ties to Europe during the deadly Euromaidan protests that led to Yanukovych's downfall. A break with Moscow could have portended a serious hit to the stability of Russia's economy, which has nonetheless suffered significantly in the wake of crippling Western sanctions enacted in response to Russia's role in Ukraine.


Russia's strategy, as outlined in the document, reportedly included invasion plans that would begin with a "main thrust" in "Crimea and the Kharkhiv region," and ultimately lead to "the annexation of the eastern regions," Muratov said.


According to Muratov, the strategy paper also characterized Yanukovych as "a person without morals and willpower whose downfall must be expected at any moment."

Muzh, Ochka was just telling me about this today during our exercise walk.

She was amazed that a Russian newspaper was allowed to publish  the story.

Of course the editors may have a serious accident soon.
