The Origins of Russian Colonialism: From Pushkin to Putin by Prof. Dr. Ewa Thompson

Deeply knowledgeable and eloquent guest. Sophisticated questions and clear pace … wot not to like…? Excellent… ask this professor back!

[@andresha9391]

The biggest threat to contemporary civilization is the lack of honesty and conscientiousness - especially among the people who are supposed to inform and enlighten the masses. It's a pity when often the dishonest ignoramuses with an insufficient brain power are trying to "educate" the public on the subject of our - i.e., of the former USSR nations' - reality and history [especially when it is coupled with a strong intention to divide the union of Russian people (i.e., Russians-Ukrainians-Belorussians-Rusyns) - this is the scammers' old colonial trick "divide and conquer"]. Ukraine, being in the Russian state and in the USSR, became the founder of the USSR and of the UN, increased its territory around seven-fold, population - in around 22 times, and finally became the third power in the world by the main civilization characteristics in 1980-ths! As a Ukrainian, I state that the distorting Ukrainian history and reality media personalities and the instigating ethnic strife criminals should be brought to the future Ukraine Nation's Military Tribunal (in the way as it was done for the Nazis by the Nazi-hunting Wiesenthal Institute) - together with the creators and supporters of the scabies/короста on the body of our nation - current puppet néonazi anti-Ukrainian regime in Ukraine. The Hitler collaborators are the main heroes of this regime, the elite force of its army is "Azov" - which was recognized as a néonazi organization even by the US Congress, the slogans and greetings of this regime are copied from the ones of the Hitler collaborators, the anti-nazi are killed by the "death squads" or imprisoned, the national thinker Oles' Busina is demonstratively killed and his killers are funded by the government! The people who really care about the civilization on the planet Earth and the free-thinking Ukrainians will always remember and hunt (again, to bring to the justice - as Wiesenthal did) the war criminals who have brought and/or supported puppet néonazi regimes in Ukraine and started the Civil war in our country ⚡

Thank you for that interview. I learned a lot again. And of course I again think, while listening to the history of russian world, how many people will the western leaders throw into this creatures mouth, before it starts to act for its citizens, and for the citizens of the world, and decolonizes and demilitarizes russia completely. Besides your guests, you are always a source of great input for me too, Sergej. I will look at this painters work. Imagine that russians themselves, exhibit those paintings. Wow. Your question at 22:00 is absolutely on point, and it is something, that personally interests me. And about Poland: Polands problem is raging chauvinism. And that will be a continued problem for all of us. What you said at 34:00 is a so important question, that I think it should be highlighted somehow. The reaction of the western allies to the holocaust and the similarities to the situation of the Ukrainians now, is a sad and somehow psychological issue. How come that humanity is sick enough to basically ignore the visible ongoing attempt of destruction of a nation by a certain group of people? It makes me feel very uneasy to see it happening. To see it happening again and again.

Defeated by Ukraine in 2022? Lol, are you high? in 2022 Russia occupied 20% of Ukraine's territory while Ukraine occupies none of Russia's. The war is still going, and it's going decisively in Russia's favor. You posting your wishful fantasies as if they were fact is quite bizarre. As for WW2, 80% of Nazi deaths were on the Eastern front, which means Soviet Union did 80% of the workload (not to mention losing 27 million people compared to America's 400 something thousand).

[@vadymrud4462]

In all Russian writers one can find this showinistic taste. Great Russian writer Astafiev testified in his books and conversations that Russian literature has ever served the oppression with extremely rare exceptions. Prohibiting and killing no less grater and unique Ukrainian literature that is awaiting its world recognition was approved by Russian writers who served tsars and then Stalin. Talented? Yes. This makes it even worse.

[@EPWillard]

the word you're looking for is chauvinistic. can you recommend some ukrainian books to me

[@vadymrud4462]

@@EPWillard thank you for the correction. I would recommend anything written by the group of Ukrainian writers called "Shot Rebirth" or "Killed Revival" whatever the translation of the original term " Росстріляне Відродження" is. It is so radically other than Russian literature that there is no doubt why Russia quickly killed all of them - it simply different culture... BTW, I always was wondering why guerrillas-peasants in "Peace and War" speak Russian. They all were Belorussian and their language was quite different from Russian. Tolstoy didn't bother... that is show..chauvinistic.

[@MeatyTF2Mercs]

So, we Mongols are to blame for Russian aggression? Also, we didn't have a culture because we didn't build? What the hell kind of argument is that? I could make a similar argument that America is a colonizer, inherited from Britain in the same vain to this. Not that I hate America or anything, quite the opposite but, still.

[@EuroResilience]

No, as it is clearly said that the Mongols have moved from Middle Age era towards modern democracy. But out of some reason, Moscovy stuck in their 1200s - 1300s.

[@JustcallmeKathi]

True, the suggestion that today's autocratic regime in Russia derives from the rule of the Mongols during the Middle Ages is not helpful at all. Besides enforcing stereotypes it is much too simplistic and ahistorical. In order to analyze the roots of the current Russian regime and the fact that it is apparently supported by a majority of its citizens, one doesn't have to go back centuries.

the first three chapters are fairly interesting but i find the section talking about the mongol origins and greek origins to be reductive because there was a very long time in western europe where democracy was effectively dead for centuries on centuries under the medieval and ancien regimes until the last couple hundred years. i also feel it doesn't really address the interconnection of russia and western europe. maybe she would have something to say on that but i find that the given explanation lacks nuance as presented and i would need an expanded explanation. the short version of the given explanation strikes me as oversimplification verging on race-science. perhaps that is a weakness of the video format but the general lack of citation outside of the literature section has me wary.

Ukraine literally means borderland. The Ukraine was about as much of a Russian 'colony' as Bavaria is a 'colony' of Berlin/Prussia.
