Understanding The Delirium of Putin's Russia

[@mchozen2958]

Rotten to the core indeed, to this day. As an escapee from the holodomor, my mother never trusted the soviets. There appeared to be a sliver of hope during Gorbachev but it has been snuffed out. Slava Ukraini! Thank you for the clarification, from Ukrainian Diaspora in Canada.

[@BabyFarkMcIsaak]

the other side of the tragedy is, that russian people entrust their political power to tyrants, feudalist-imperialists and bolshevik-'bourgeoisi' and then back to tyrannical-feudal imperialism. You and me as part of the Soviet and Post-Soviet-Era know best how the inner sadness of the people was exploited to fuel a narrative of global mental segregation and being told the soviet system is the most just and fair the people has ever gotten the pleasure of experiencing... :DDD so dumb, but back then 100s of millions believed it and would have died for such a dumb and unfair system. a tragedy they still have not learned.. 107 years since russia rose up, to try better things internally..

@@DarkestAlice he is saying that atheism caused the soviet atrocities, Putin and everything else! The guy is a disgusting joke, no matter how important he is.

[@DarkestAlice]

@@flyingfox707b Hello Flyingfox, I think you might have misunderstood. David Satter said that the Soviet regime could introduce a new set of negative values to fill the gap that the imposed atheism opened. They made the state the new deity, so nobody could go against it and the state or its representatives were always right and what they did was okay. They removed morality (as the western world understands it) by declaring it unnecessary. In short: the state doubly robbed their population - it took away their belief and moral system and filled it with "anti-values". It was not atheism that caused the Soviet atrocities, but "the state" or rather its representatives who acted according to their needs. This later enabled the "criminal capitalism" in the 1990s, which is capitalism without the rule of law. That is why many compare the current state as a mafia-like run business. All the best to you!

My father, who came from Ukraine, emigrated to the US after WW2 because he couldn't stand living there any longer and he wanted a better life. He fought for the Soviets so he knew what Russia was all about. He didn't like the ruling class of Russians. I remember him telling me that compared to the Russians, our Mafia here were amateurs and pussycats. Jason Smart is basically repeating what my father has already told me. We must keep supporting Ukraine with whatever they need until Russia loses this war and they're able to stand strong.

[@ruthwolfer4154]

David Satter knows the facts about Putin quite well

[@chuckkottke]

An excellent interview, good in depth thinking about the political, cultural, and philosophical problems we are all facing at this juncture in history. Russia never had a clean break from the past, so living under the harsh rule of the Czars and then the harsh rule of Bolshevists and dictators like Lenin and Stalin, set up a pattern of authoritarian rule with only a glimmer of a break during the handoff of power from Gorbachev to Yeltsin, with no real anti-corruption effort. I'm not so sure about the necessity of Christian values in a society, but of common sense principled moral values and empathy being required both within a nation and embodied by those in power, with individuals counting as equals in power vs. the masses and king, or the masses and church leaders, or the masses and party ruler i.e. the supreme Soviet ruler, which all looks about the same, but with a different colored varnish coated on top. People corralled into thinking they are but grains of sand in the fist, or all part of a sports team, the kind of subservient worship of the all powerful leader that cult members are obedient to and brainwashed into believing, there is the problem. Yes, Russia has unparalleled chauvinistic propaganda and war hysteria, the hypnotic narcotic that television is today, but there are changes afoot in attitudes in Russia, and I too believe that we must help Ukraine win this war, or the tottering wall will come toppling down on us in the freedom loving civilized world. The fate of the future of humanity rests in our hands. 🕊️🗽🇺🇸🇪🇺🇺🇦🌎

[@petra1201]

👍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍

[@gardenjoy5223]

Yes, a very good interview. I do share his view on real Christian values, like loving your neighbor like yourself and helping those in need, that they are tremendously beneficial for any society and person with them. There's a shield of protection to hear often enough to not steal and not murder, but instead share with those in need and respect their person and rights. Just yesterday I saw a video about how the police under the CCP behaves like total crooks and openly steal and destroy. Heartbreaking.

[@RedRosa]

Excellent comment. I like a lot of what is discussed in the interview, but to say that Christianity is required for a moral society is contradicted by most of the available evidence. Russia never got a clean break from the past because the early Bolsheviks ended up keeping much of the power structure of the Czarist state, most importantly the Checka/NKVD/KGB/FSB, which carried into the Putin regime. The most important thing, IMO, in the post-Soviet era was in the conversion to a market society without first implementing an appropriate legal system and popular education.

[@jeremywillis7139]

@@RedRosaThank you. I’m honestly so tired of the “Stalinists were terrible because they were atheists” argument. It simply doesn’t hold water if you look across the breadth of history. Plenty of atrocities have been committed by Christian nations. Western concepts of human rights are a result of secular humanism, which grew in a large part in opposition to established power structures that were supported and enabled by the Christian churches. Does anybody remember the divine right of kings?

This is the only guy that makes sense discussing Russia

[@ldhorricks]

Having spent a great deal of time in Russia over the past 40 years...my belief is that Russia/Russians are simply not (for lack of a better term)..."reformable". This goes beyond some kind of geopolitical conundrum or even power vertical with the nation in it's grip. This is about the Russian people...and is the common belief held by most of my friends and family here in Czech Republic and pretty much everyone I know in former Warsaw "Pact" nations I have lived and worked in...over the decades...and certainly shared among the Baltic peoples. We will be forever asking the question, what to do about Russia...And I can tell you that proximity and real life experience and living memory plays a massive role in the visceral nature of that question. We here in this part of the Europe woke up on February 24th 2022 without any measurable surprise over Russia's invasion of Ukraine. It feels like more and more we need to question how much we can trust Hungary ,Slovakia and now potentially Romania (with their latest political leanings). They feel more like Trojan horses on our Eastern Flank...not allies. Russian's "seeing an alternative path" in the example Ukraine has been on (albeit rocky and long riddled with corruption) is exactly the existential threat Putin and his mob elite and acolytes fear to core of their existence...THIS is what Putin's invasion is about...mixed in with his colossal butt hurt ego and mythical revisionist understanding of history and revanchist DNA. Ukraine has been fighting to not become another Belarus since the Soviet Union collapsed and each and every republic declared their independence. Russia and Putin simply believes they don't have to recognise Ukraine's independence and agency as sovereign nation. Russia only lends Belarus it's "sovereignty" as long as it and whomever comes after Lukashenko fall in line with the Kremlin's "sphere of influence"...exactly what Ukraine fighting against now...for their very existence as a nation and culture.

[@WWZenaDo]

Agreed. The Russian leaders have stupidly believed the conquest fantasies of the Russian political mystic/occultist Alexander Dugin, whose fairy tales of innate Russian superiority are basically plagiarized from Hitler's failed "Thousand-year-Reich" delusions of Germany's world-wide empire. They have made the MASSIVE mistake of thinking that the western democratic nations are the biggest threat, squalling about 'the threat of America and 'Atlantism' for decades, while ignoring the wolf of China crouching at their eastern doorstep. This is what 400+ years of alcoholism and fetal-alcohol-syndrome did to the Russians.

And that's not in the video... the video is... insane. Mil personnel in the comments all concur, it's fubar! Corruption is total, the system is being destroyed from the inside. Russia is laughing.

Thank you for this very detailed analysis. The only thing I would like to add is that Ukraine and russia became close only as a result of centuries of violent policy of assimilation, russification and integration of Ukraine by russia. In the 17th century, both countries needed translators in order to conclude agreements. Ukrainians did not understand Muscovites, and Muscovites did not understand the language of Ukrainians. However, the violent russification, which consisted of arson of libraries, 170 official bans on the Ukrainian language, mass executions of Ukrainian poets and artists, ban of Ukrainian Christian traditions, the forced deportation of Ukrainians to the territory of russia, the settlement of Ukrainian cities and villages devastated by artificial famine by russians… The artificial assimilation of Ukrainian language to russian language in the 20th century by removing from it a huge number of words that differed from russian and replacing them with words that were as similar as possible to russian… All this led to the so-called friendship and similarity of the two countries.

I’ve been saying, the US can pay in equipment and assistance money now, or we can pay in lives later. Sadly the majority seems intent on the lives.

And the Soviet System came out of the Moskovia Tsarist Reality; which was rather depraved itself. The Myth of the wounderous Tsarist State needs to be flushed.

There is a lot of similarities between pedoputin, rasputin, stalin and hitler.

And Trump. Trump lusts for a dictatorship that will outdo Russia AND North Korea. He's an idiot whose head has been filled with Russian propagana since 1987.

The worry is the population of the US, Trump would never have gotten this far if the population had the intelligence to understand David Satter.

The Republican Party has been undermining America's democracy for around 100 years, and the Democratic Party has worked hard to bring recovery from the 1930's Great Depression, to give Americans Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, Child Labor laws, Infrastructure bill, and the Microchips Act to bring jobs back to America. When the banks are warning against a Republican president (even when they were so stupid as to help him get elected in the first place), one KNOWS that the Trump administration is going to be an epic disaster! But it's the Republican Party (whose scapegoating of the Democrats has plunged us into a probable dictatorship) that people are still mentally in thrall to. Trump lusts for a dictatorship that will outdo Russia AND North Korea. Remember that this slow motion Russian disaster is what the American Republican Party, the white Christian Nationalists, the Heritage Foundation and Federalist Society aspire to for America....

I echo the comment below. One of the most knowledgeable and thoughtful. I am glad he took us back to Putin as deputy mayor of St Petersburg..the chap in charge of contracts I believe? (food, army, heavy goods and lots more!)....I see a line (not sure if correct?)...from Marx, Lenin, Trotsky, Stalin, Hitler, and through to today's leaders of North Korea, China, Iran and even Afghanistan (different but as dangerous as the others)...Iraq..and now Putin...Think how many millions of his own Stalin murdered or was responsible for...

there are and will be books about the times and crimes of Putin. After 'perestroyka' and 'glasnost' my czecho-slowakian grandfather was able to buy a book and read empiric and documented facts about the scales of Stalins crimes, uncensored by the still Communist regime in the 80s. My grandpa's WW2 depiction as a 'slave-soldier' ( he was forcefully drafted as a horse-breeding&stable-student in Hungary) that fled the german army in late '43 and hid 2 years on a rooftop before the front started expanding torwards Stalingrad. He heard that russian soldiers did terrible things to romanian, hungarian and czecho-slovakian german-forced draftees..

Am I the only one that find this gentlemans perception that the root cause of russian moral corruption is caused by atheism borderline grotesque? It seems like a VERY generalized view on religion and atheism considering the fact that some of the most peaceful, humanistic and least corrupt nations in the world are also the least religious. And considering the fact that religious people seem more prone to accept an authoritarian rule, his analysis seems to demonstrate a bit of a black and white and not quite realistic world view. Hmmm...

[@WWZenaDo]

Agreed. Absolutely right; the Abrahamic religions (especially Christianity) have always been foundational tools for conquerors, despots and tyrants. This slow motion Russian disaster is what the American Republican Party, the white Christian Nationalists, the Heritage Foundation and Federalist Society aspire to for America....
