What Aleksandr Dugin REALLY Believes About America

In light of Tucker Carlson’s recently released interview with Russian philosopher Aleksandr Dugin, Glenn dives deep into Dugin’s true beliefs about America and his terrifying “solutions” to society’s problems. Dugin may sound like an ally to American conservatives, but his comments on war, apocalypse, and fascism reveal his true intents. Rockford University Philosophy Professor Stephen Hicks joins Glenn to lay out the “massive trap” that Dugin has set for the West and the future of “fascism without compromise” that he wants for the world.

In 1983 on the train from Amsterdam to Frankfurt, a German woman told me her father had been a professor in Germany in the '30's and actually read Mein Kampf. He tried warning people who Hitler truly was. But up until 1938, most thought Hitler was the best thing to happen to Germany in decades! The woman's father moved the family to England were she grew up. She was visiting family that day. She said something I'd never heard before then, but have heard often since: Hitler invaded Germany first, before invading the world. These ppl have been invading the West from within, and in the open, if we'd only thought to look. No political bent will save us either. Only God, and our relationship with Him.

Hitler, so driven, over extended..invading Africa, Europe, Russia..had he just picked one, the war would've raged on, much longer. However, US airpower was such that the Not Sees weren't going to make it, anyway..in fact..we had bombed 2/3's of their hydro-electric capacity and as well, 2/3's of their ball bearing prod. capacity..around 1940. Had we merely finished the job on either, the German war machine would've faltered within 6 months.

[@NorceCodine]

Dugin is correct, its his somewhat limited English that clouds his point. What he was saying is that fascism or communism were not fascism and communism per se, but they were what they were because they had no competing ideology in that particular society, and if liberalism has no competition from within society, then liberalism is no different from fascism or communism. Hence what we see today, unopposed liberalism attacking the only things that remains to be attacked, gender and human identity. This is why for example in societies like Hungary or Poland transgenderism have failed, because they offered a competition to western style liberalism, what Orban calls "illiberal democracy" that rejects liberalism when it comes to the basic divisions of humanity (male, female, family, etc.), while in America liberalism has mutated into full blown gender and human identity fascism.

They wanted to be more than God. Where I slightly disagree, is I think we do need a degree of individualism, because that's how we get art music etc have a good culture and I'm sure if I were to read more, I would find more I disagree with.

[@schmiggidy]

This is a distinction without a difference. Over time, liberalism ALWAYS devolves into morally weaker versions of itself until it finally destroys whatever society it originally infected. The dividing line between "classical" liberalism and "progressive" liberalism (then on to socialism, then communism, etc.) is a red herring. The root problem is the morally bankrupt worldview inherent within liberalism. Full stop.

[@BA-mv8pp]

Don't know much about the guy, but do know based on a fair amount of my own independent research that extreme individualism is toxic, modern progressivism is deeply rooted with identity at an individual level, and that the US is the most individualistic country in the world along with western Europe and the Anglophone countries.

[@maccabee7]

Free floating liberalism that is not anchored to any moral or spiritual tradition does lead to the dystopian future that he talked about because there’s nothing to restrain liberalism from going in that direction. Western liberalism works only so long as it does not untether itself from the Christian and spiritual traditions that gave birth to it.

[@juanvaldez5422]

[@TheRealNickG]

You don't know anything about Liberalism if you think evangelical weirdos are how it started or what keeps it going..... The whole point is that the founders knew there would be many kinds of people and designed it in a way for new social majorities to peacefully transition power. Maybe it's because I'm currently rereading Common Sense by Thomas Payne, but that religious insinuation is just incorrect and kinda gross if you've actually spent time reading and studying what they said.

[@maccabee7]

@@TheRealNickG Okay let’s define the term liberalism here. When I use the term liberalism, I don’t mean it the America-centric way that you appear to have interpreted it. Perhaps because I’m not American, I tend to think of it in a more general sense in which Western liberal democracies tend to use it and most particularly from the values it presupposes; that’s the first thing. Secondly, these values did not abstract themselves from a vacuum. They abstracted themselves from a Judaeo Christian world view that has had a long history of inculturation in Europe and from where the United States borrowed most of its cultural and intellectual pedigree. Also, any political reforms that resulted cannot be separated from the cultural way of thinking that informed them. I would hope that if you are an honest intellectual historian you would at least acknowledge that.

[@TheRealNickG]

@@maccabee7 But it IS American-centric. Maybe you're talking about something altogether different, but I'm talking about Dugin and Dugin is specifically talking about American neoliberal hegemony, so no need to make up definitions if you've read Dugin. Some people, mostly Americans obviously, think it's the way it is because it's the way it should be because "Merica Great" because "God" made it that way and so I was reacting to the idea that America can do no wrong because we're the "good and correct Christians". Dugin makes it clear in his writing and his interviews that he is making a connection between American neoliberal hegemony (that I agree is objectively destroying the world) and progressive social liberalism that fights for the rights of people. He assumes that the way to defeat US neoliberalism is to blame the most vulnerable people for those problems and not more worldwide ACTUAL government accountability. Dugin thinks that "the gay problem" is because governments have become too weak and aren't willing to make them disappear by sheer force of will if necessary. I'm not sure if you're okay with that or not, but please be careful who and how you align with if you don't agree with them. Guaranteed Dugin is a sure fire way of making a bad situation much worse on purpose in order to take advantage of the chaos, not a solution to the current problems. It is its own problem to be solved if too many take it seriously.

[@maccabee7]

@@TheRealNickG In my first point, I was very careful to use the expression “free floating liberalism.” The reason I did this was to deliberately reference the idea of liberalism as currently conceived in modern Western political tradition, because Dugin’s analysis of how liberal democracies have incarnated to their current state includes the impact of two World Wars which, if you don’t mind me pointing out, was not strictly speaking, an all American affair. As such, Dugin’s analysis of transhumanism being the eventual logical end point of liberalism is as valid as your insistence of viewing his analysis as America-centric as it is of mine to view it in its wider context and implications in the light of Western liberalism in general. I have seen nothing in his or your analysis that suggests that his conclusions should be read and applied as meaning the American political experiment in its very strictest sense alone. I am not sure what you mean by “neoliberal hegemony.” If by that you mean a new liberal political class that is divorced from its religious and spiritual heritage - hence the “new” - then perhaps you have unintentionally made my original point which is, casting of the old values does lead to Dugin’s dystopian end point of transhumanism. In which case, I’m not sure that your quip about “evangelical weirdos” does not argue against itself. If you mean it in the typically modern Marxist sense of “progressive social liberalism”, then what is there to stop you from ending up in transhumanism as Dugin sees it? After all, there is no end point to progressivism. This is the point I’m trying to make. Finally, just because I think that Dugin is right in where free floating liberalism eventually leads, does not mean that I endorse his solutions. I did specifically say that Western liberalism works only so long as it does not untether itself from its Judaeo Christian traditions. It is these traditions, as I have argued earlier, that gave us the liberal values that Western democracies once held so dear. If you get rid of that, you are not far from Dugin’s Hell, both in his conception of it, and in the solutions that he proposes.

3:57 I got to tell you Glenn, on this one you are wrong. Liberalism does led to progressivism. It is incapable of stopping it. This is the problem, people don't want to acknowledge the failures of liberalism. Yes, the Enlightenment brought a lot of good ideas out, but it was not the only outgrowth of liberalism. Romanticism came out of it also and led to progressivism. For anyone who doesn't know what that is, it was the counter-Enlightenment movement that was mainly centered in France, it lead to that nice little series of revolutions in that country, which caused the death of approximately 100,000 people in France.

[@shadowcipher4068]

I won't say that Stephen Hicks was incorrect on what he said about pretty much everything he said, but like many Americans as well as numerous other nationalities, long ago you watched an event occur that you believed signaled one thing but actually meant something completely different. The "Cold War" never ended, and that is because we thought we were in a Cold War, and the Russians knew they were in a "Hot War" and had already deployed a diabolical weapon of mass destruction, much more powerful than any nuclear weapon could ever be. The men who designed this weapon had already done so by the end of WWII, at which time they deployed it and it has steadily delivered its payload over and over again ever since. You are currently watching the USSR in the process of defeating the USA long after it collapsed, largely because things were ignored that shouldn't have been, and people involved in making important decisions for the future of our nation had absolutely no real bearing on their present situational awareness (which was virtually non-existent). Who knows of this weapon? Do any of you know of it? Some do, but few others besides myself have given any worthy amount of thought to the details surrounding all of the variables related to it and the events that led up to its deployment or the countless major world events since its deployment. Wasn't it Sun Tzu who said to let your enemy believe you are weak while you are actually not even close to being weak. The Russians are masters of that, and they are masters of psyops, and if all of the enemies of America that are attacking it right now succeed in their efforts to destroy us, consider how arrogant it was to simply throw a "w" in the "Win" column for the USA after the Berlin Wall fell. That was far from the first mistake our nation's leaders made since this began, but it was one of the worst ones and might be the main reason why we get beat if they succeed in the attempt they are currently making to cause that. Considering the snake in the White House who is handing us over to all of them, to say it is going to be difficult to stop is a serious understatement. I've been watching most of you get everything wrong for the past 5 years, everything. Very few people understand what is actually going on right now or why. Some get close but most always veer off track and end up way off target. That's just a simple fact. Time will show that what I'm telling you here is fact, it will be exposed one way or another.

Glenn Beck is completely wrong to say that liberalism doesn't lead to progressivism. That's exactly what it does. That's the reason the Bible's social laws in the Torah are so strict and patriarchal. When standards are relaxed, it leads to an inexorable decline that leads to collapse. You either have biblical laws and patriarchy or else you slide into liberalism, then progressivism, and then finally paganism and chaos. The problem is that this process takes a solid three generations to play out, so old people who reveled in newfound freedoms during their youth after traditional norms and institutions were undermined are stunned to see their once-appealing "liberalism" turn into something much uglier. It was always bound to happen, but they didn't know that, so they pine for "the good old days", having completely failed to learn the lesson of history that they personally lived through.

You mixed everything together. If we're talking about society, which is the topic of interview, it's not about progressivism or communism or fascism. They are more economical topics rather than social. There is *dogmatism,* where there's written truth and you must obey it. The opposite of dogmatism is *nihilism,* where there's no truth at all, even your life is a lie. *Liberalism* is a state or, rather, a process of movement from dogmatism to nihilism. In can happen in different spheres and have different names. Say, in Christianity orthodoxy is dogmatism, satanism is nihilism, and sectarianism is liberalism. Let me remind you that catholicism, protestantism, mormonism and etcetera are just big sects, which broke one or many original dogmas.

A lot of the issue is the dialectic distortion of language - everything must also be its opposite or be confronted by its opposite. Inclusion means excluding people. Diversity means everybody believes the same thing. Equity means taking things away. In this case, it's that "liberty" no longer means freedom coupled with responsibility and ownership; it's that "liberation" means freedom from reality.. and freedom from responsibility.

[@gregpoumakis1761]

Beck makes a weak conflation of what Dugin calls liberalism with the conservative idea of classical liberalism. When Dugin says liberalism he is clearly referring to modern liberals and progressive. Beck is stuck on neocon Russia = Soviet Union = bad Becks neocon tendencies is why he could not get behind Ron Paul as well.

I don’t think Dugin is making a mistake but rather just pointing out the truth; as inconvenient as it might be for Beck and Hicks. Liberalism has no reply to progressivism; it simply walks in and uses the liberal playbook and forces liberalism into its own agenda. Yes liberals today hate it but that doesn’t mean Dugin is wrong. Liberalism becomes progressive whether it likes it or not. This should not be taken as an affront to liberals at all. But maybe understanding that the roots of liberalism don’t allow it to resist progressivism, therefore the problem is with liberalism itself. It’s quite logical really.

I guess Stephen is missing Dugin's point about group identity, may be intentionally. Basically Stephen says that transgenderism is a repackaged communism, or Marxism, or fashism, not liberalism, but he doesnt explain why he thinks so. On the contrary, Dugin has made a clear connection between liberal values (individual rights above the group rights, unlimited freedom of speech, expression etc) and the end result of it - errosion and ultimate destruction of any group identity, like a local community, a familiy, gender identity and even human being identity. This is a linear approximation, of course, but there are several observable dots on this line already supporting Dugin's point. On the contrary, both Stephen and Glenn are trying to embelish liberalism by attributing the side effects of it to other "isms". This is completely baseless - neither communism nor fashism were promoting a person over a group.

Dugin makes more sense than the people advising Trump and Biden. Culture matters, as does family and community. Faith matters. Nihilism and cultural relativism are taking the West down the road to hell. Hicks agrees with Dugin but thinks that things will get better for us because the West will not give up the old ideals that made it great. But I see no evidence of that. The American public elected a man who showered with his daughter because it did not like a man who used hookers, models and showgirls to commit adultery. Hicks disagrees with Dugin's thesis that the anti-liberal ideas that are destroying liberalism came from liberalism itself. But where did they come from? Many of the horrors that we face today started as good intentions by people who meant well and used liberal narratives based on a denial of universal values to help the camel of progressivism get its nose under the tent. Even Pope Francis turned out to be a progressive moral relativist. Today, we in the West have the fascism without compromise that Dugin favours. Western corporations are privately owned but fully regulated by governments that determine their activities. Hicks can say that things will work out. Still, when we look around and see the Democrats and Republicans hold the same anti-capitalist totalitarian views, it is clear that Dugin has a better explanation than Hicks. If we consider Polybius' anacyclosis idea, we must understand that it appears that we are getting close to the ochlocracy stage. The EU, North America, and Oceania are at the hyperemotional stage, where emotional progressives are facing energized, emotional populist movements that are looking to sweep away governments and replace them with something very different. Russia is far more stable. India and China have some hope that they can still hold things together. Much of the world is still working things out but is in a better position than where we are. Given that Glenn is pushing gold ownership, I think that he is closer to Dugin than Hicks.

Read this, by translation. This is true about Dugin in Russia. Российский философ Александр Дугин дал интервью популярному американскому журналисту из лагеря Республиканской партии Такеру Карлсону. К сожалению, у нас, видимо, нет других русских философов, кроме оккультиста с крайне сомнительной идеологией, чтобы донести до западной аудитории идеи о кризисе либерально-прогрессивистской модели развития и её угрозах будущему всего человечества. На Западе теперь могут судить о России, её цивилизационном выборе, по высказываниям человека, который ранее запомнился многими антихристианскими идеями - о "солнечном андрогине", "изменении пола всего творения в эсхатологической перспективе", определением Лиц Святой Троицы "метафизическими аспектами Абсолюта" и т. д. Хотелось бы отметить, что о заблуждениях Дугина писали многие православные мыслители и богословы. Вот, например, статья Аркадия Малера на тему философии Александра "наше всё" Дугина. А вот еще один материал на сайте центра Иринея Лионского, который возглавляет Александр Дворкин. Учение Дугина рассматривается как еретическое в справочнике Миссионерского отдела Московского Патриархата за 2002 г. и как синкретическое в том же справочнике за 2017 г.

Got a lot of Dugin-bots in the comments (ironically enough). For all of you, consider the large quantity of fallacies he is committing. Just as the most important example: Dugin is first and foremost committing a False Binary Fallacy. His issue with "liberalism" starts and ends with Rousseauian Noble Savage Secular Liberalism, which is not the same kind of Liberalism as John Locke/Thomas Hobbes' Divine Rights & Responsibilities Liberalism. Of course, Dugin commits a deliberate fallacy in conflating them all and pretending they are one thing. For Rousseau, total government is required to free men to become like his ideal atomized secular (meaning worldly, not areligious) Noble Savage, because in his view, you must have all bonds (including societal bonds he described as chains) tying you to any other humans, including dependency on buying other people's work (or even working yourself) broken and have everything provided for you to become free. This is not the Freedom of John Lock & Thomas Hobbes' Classical Liberalism, which defined Freedom in the Greek Antiquity Rationalist sense of "capacity to chose without vices (like addiction or being ruled by one's own emotions) limiting one's choices", not "a lack of external religious, civil, or social authority which one is ruled over by and to which one is held accountable by". It doesn't take much to realize these are diametrically opposed definitions of liberty (called today Positive Liberty (having stuff provided for you so you can do whatever you fancy; and Negative Liberty (not being impeded by vices/flaws of personal character), because the former requires a totalitarian government and the latter a limited government. This is one of the rare cases in philosophy where the same word is used to describe two opposing ideologies. One of the key differences between Scottish/English Liberalism and Continental Liberalism (of Rousseau) is the former was tied directly to religion (rights and responsibilities come from God), whereas the latter was rapidly separating from any proper form of religion and connection to Humanism (because ultimately Humanism is a Christian practice and doctrine, you don't find it outside the Judeo-Christian tradition anywhere in the world), and instead appealing to a vague "innate eternal existence of rights, often said to come from man's capacity to reason", treating Reason as if it is the sole most important factor in decision-making and superior to all others, from empirical observation to divine revelation. America was explicitly born of the former, whereas Karl Marx and the Soviet Union's conceptions of liberty was born from the latter.

[@niallchristie2491]

Judeo Christian is a modern term, the term didn’t exist before 1821 when Jews started converting to Christianity. The sense that Jews can piggy back and take a culture that isn’t theirs yet be treated as a special class at the same time in the west is inconsistent, Jews live with but don’t think or create the same kinds of things not denying them a place or a culture but it is in fact seperate. English liberalism is winning, French liberalism is infantilising and we see an advancement of French liberal thought grow in the USA and everywhere now. Problem is that liberalism in both French and English suggests equality as a goal and the Marxists use this to justify their own ends. Liberalism is for small countries like England and before the Americans created a central bank, got off the gold standard and got talked into the European wars, it worked in the US too. The growth of the state and fiat currency has ensured a demand for equality and a constant ramping up of Marxist sentiment in the west via inflation and a touch of soulless consumerism. Loss of religion has some part to play too

Liberalism as an idea that "liberation is progress" would inevitably become transhumanism. James Lindsey has tried to call this Gnosticism but I think Dugin's diagnosis is more accurate. Liberalism to me doesn't mean liberation and so maybe it's better called Universalism, which may have it's roots in the Unitarian theological movement that eventually influences John Locke. As a Universal ideology, individualism is emphasized and authority has a democratic nature because it cannot be known by individuals or groups of individuals, and must be verified by objective standards. Liberation from sex or human would be not possible under this standard.

Funny you should say that, Dugin contributed to the Soviet propaganda aimed at the West that told people they need to be free from all limitations to the ego, including the physical body and obligations that being an embodied human (such as duties parents have to children they create or children duties to the parents without whom they would not exist). Dugin was very much a product of the corrupt Soviet system.
