Great Awakening, New Right, alt-right, Traditionalism. Westerners have seen these topics promoted but clueless about their frightening origins. A detailed 🧵about the Russian version of Nazism for 21st century: Neo Eurasianism, Russias National Idea 1/
Pushed in the American media by Mike Flynn, Steve Bannon, Jack Posobiec, Alex Jones, Tucker Carlson, Sean & Oliver Stone etc, GRU psyops has subliminally inserted Neo Eurasianism into American society with no one explaining or understanding what they were promoting 2/
In the 2000s Russian nationalists & far-right intelligencia, disillusioned by outdated & “dusty” German-centric ideology, took to “Third Way” traditionalism through Eurasianist doctrines promoting a Russo-centric version of 1000 Year Reich. 3/
These ultra Nationalists were joined by Neo Nazis, Ortho Fascists, Imperialsts, even Far Left fanatics & Neo Stalinists, reviving and modernizing the post-WW1 political ideology of National Bolshevism 4/
Eurasianist critique of liberalism & globalism resonated with those who believed that the West has lost its way & a new political & spiritual order is needed. Its influence paved the way for Dark Enlightenment ideology of Vance, Curtis Yarvin & Peter Thiel
Like Nazism, Eurasianist ideological roots stemmed from within Imperial Russias far right conspiracy movement that birthed the infamous Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion, which provided the doctrinal foundation for many modern anti-Semitic movements still relevant today 6/
Protocols were based on "Dialogue in Hell between Machiavel et Montesquieu" by Maurice Joly, compiled by Okhrana agent Yulia Glinka, a Russian occultist & theosophist & confidant of Helena Blavatsky whose teachings influenced Nazi ideology & Aryan myth 7/
First Published by antisemite Sergei Nilus for the Russian Orthodox Church in 1905 to demonize Jews & promote blood libel. Translated from Russian to German in 1930s by Russian Nazi Fyodor Vinberg, who called for the extermination of Jews as the Final Solution 8/
A Russian White Colonel & Nazi officer named Baron Alexander Meller-Zakomelsky, a pioneer in the early Eurasinist movement, established himself as an “expert on the Jewish question. He wrote The Terrible Question of Russia and Jewry in 1923 9/
Eurasianist ideas actually resurfaced in the 1980s within the Pamyat ultra nationalist organization, in which almost all the Russian patriotic sphere participated.... and which the KGB supervised 10/
The actual term “Eurasianism” was rediscovered in 1990–1991 and reused in public debate by the weekly journal Den (Day) 11/
In 1996 Neo-Eurasianist professor Alexander Panarin taught that World War 4 started as soon as WW3 aka the Cold War finished & that Russia should put a stop to the illusion that it has not been attacked, he began strategizing the destruction of the West back in the 90s 12/
If the Nazis had “Mein Kampf” than the Neo-Eurasianists have A.S. Panarin’s “Orthodox Civilization”. Emphasizing the greatness of the Russian Orthodoxy,. Making shameless, mendacious arguments to confirm utopian claims to Russias role as the only true and worthy world leader 13/
Panarin preached about "Byzantine globalism, an appeal to Orthodoxy & spiritual sources from which Russian culture emerged. Believing that the US led world order collapsing, A new far right Globalism & traditionalism should & could only be led by Russia.
Todays “Neo” Eurasianism movement, as a modern Russian Ideology, traces its esoteric Nazi beginnings to a small group of occultists from the 1960s humbly calling themselves "The Black Order Of SS", led by Evgeny Golovin - Reichsführer, Yuri Mamleev and Heydar Dzhemal 15/
Meeting on Yuzhinsky Lane in Moscow, they studied traditionalism & Nazi esotericism. Translating the works of European traditionalist Gnostics: Rene Guenon, Julius Evola, Miguel Serrano & others who created the philosophical and occult foundations of fascism 16/
The Yuzhinsky Circle believed that its reply to the Soviet regime would not be found in a rival political ideology, but in metaphysics and the search for another level of reality 17/
Their fascination with Nazis & the Middle Ages revolved around the image of a of the Holy Germanic Roman Empire as a political model for Europe, as opposed to the modern nation-state. 18/
With enthusiasm for the Nazi occult, they studied Oriental religions & mysticisms, Blavatsky, Roerich, Shamanism, Tibetan mythology, UFO-logy & so on. Dzhemal would introduce a young Satanist to the Circle in the 80s..... Alexander Dugin 19/
Associated primarily with Dugin, Neo-Eurasianism sees Russia’s geographic location, history & tradition as grounds for a political doctrine that seeks to develop a counterweight to both globalist pretensions & Western endeavors. 20/
Though Russia likes to downplay Dugin’s influence, the fact remains his work has been instrumental in the foundations of Kremlin geopolitical strategy & has been required literature for GRU/FSB/SVR officers & connections to Kremlin siloviki intellegencia are deep 21/
Neo Eurasiasm has also served as a the philosophical platform for Iran Revolutionairy Guard, Hamas & Hezbollah used a long term road map in the destruction of America & Europe 22/
Eurasianist discourse openly parallels Nazism, but in the belief that Russian Slavs (not Germans) are the true Aryans, descendants of the Hyperboreans and that the lost civilization has always resided in Russia/Eurasia & will be resurrected 23/
Dugin would incorporate Friedrich Ratzel’s theory of Lebensraum into Neo-Eurasinist doctrine, which was also the central idea motivating Nazi expansionist aggression. 24/
Eurasianist traditionalism & Dugin’s hyperborean beliefs stem from the works of the Soviet Neopagan & Science fiction movement of the 60s & 70s that rewrote history to lay claim that Russian Slavs were the master Aryan race 25/
Dugin sought to preserve Russian culture from a perceived Masonic/Zionist/Western threat & that youth were Russian society's last hope, leading to The creation of the Eurasian Youth Union(EYU/ESM), grooming & brainwashing maniacal true believers 26/
Financed by the Kremlin & Formed by Dugin & ex KGB veteran Petr Suslov, EYU would get military & terrorist training, as well as education in the occult, traditionalism & Third Way fascism. 27
EYU (ESM) began popularizing & worshipping psychopaths like Corneliu Codreanu, the leader of the Romanian Iron Guard, whose cruelty (towards civilians) even the Nazis were amazed & who is a hero in Russian nationalist circles 28/
The Iron Guard forced Jews under torture to sign suicide notes and renunciation of property rights. Women were raped. Even children were hung alive from cow hooks and skinned, their intestines wrapped around their necks. But they cry "Bandera Bad" 29/
In 2009 Russians from EYU(ESM) along with the modern day successors of Iron Guard the Neo Nazis of Noua Dreaptă would take an blood oath at the grave of their blood thirsty idol Codreanu: 30/
EYU plunged into the world of dreams, myths and prophecies. They would make a movie/play FINIS MUNDI. Celebrating the End of the World & immersed themselves into the occult, blurring the lines between reality and the transcendental 31/
Tody Neo-Eurasian themes have been mainstreamed beyond Dugin, found among the Russian military elite, high-ranking politicians, philosophers, scores of university students, as well as numerous avant-garde artists & musicians. 32/
It combats the prevalent feeling of failure associated with the turbulence of the 1990s by justifying the experience in strictly ethnic & culturalist terms while offering a simplistic understanding of the conflicts of the post-Cold War world & of Russia's role in the world 33/
But mainly it aided in the elaboration of a pseudo-scientific speak that avoids politics & justifies authoritarianism through culture. The hierarchical Imperial nature made it popular among traditionalists, monarchists, Neo-Imperialists, Ortho Fascists and Europes new right 34/
During the early 1990s, Dugin founded his own publishing house, "Arktogeya." This name was borrowed from the publishing house of German racist writer & founder of Wotanism, Guido von List (1848-1918), whose work would be used in the symbolism of the Third Reich 35/
They would start their own magazine Elements: Eurasian Review. Full of Nazi glorificaltion & teaching the Gnostic roots of “ancient” Russian Orthodoxy. As well as articles about forming global opposition of Western civilization & the need to accelerate the coming Apocolypse 36/
Neo Eurasianism is a Russo Centric version of the New World Order, (Nazism for the 21st century), sacralized in the form of political religion, providing a clear break from narrow nationalism toward the New Right ethopluralist model. 37/
The twin schools of "Eurasians". "Russo-centrists" on the one hand, and "neo-internationalists" on the other, differ on important issues but are united by the messianic fundamentalist concept of a "Third Way" for Russia. 38/
Early Eurasianism emerged in 1921 & was based on the observations of a “dying West” & “rising East.” 39/
Its chief representatives were linguist Nicolas S. Trubetzkoy, geographer Petr Nikolaevitch Savitzky, Georgy V. Florovsky, Pëtr P. Suvchinsky & legal scholar Nicolai N. Alekseev. 40/
The collapse of Soviet communism created an ideological and political vacuum. And in nature, Russia abhors a vacuum more than anywhere else in the world. 41/
Orthodox fundamentalism, Monarcho-fascism, Aryan paganism & the occult. Similar conditions to Germany post WW1. This turbulent time would be forever known as "Weimar Russia" years 42/
Eurasianists believed the Soviet break-up was the beginning of far-reaching changes in world order & the 1st global revolution. In that sense, Russia is the 1st country to suffer this trial by fire, which in their view awaits the other industrial nations
Just like Nazism, Eurasian ideology, “Evraziistvo” traces its roots to the so-called "first wave" of Russian émigrés who settled in Germany and France immediately after the Bolshevik Revolution & the Civil War 44/
Alexander Prokhanovs newspaper Zavtra, a mouthpiece for neo-Eurasianist propaganda, published numerous paranoid conspiracies & stories of blood sacrifices, necromancy & end of days apocalyptic fantasies. 45/
Fun Fact: One of the writers for Zavtra, Alexander Borodai whose work was full of anti-Semitism, misogyny, homophobia, conspiracy theories & fictional Ukrainian Identity, hilariously became the face of “anti-fascism” in “Novorossiya” 46/
Neo-Eurasianism’s use of occult symbolism is in plain sight. The symbol of Neo-Eurasianism is a chaos magick star, which Dugin used as a tribute to Satanic occultist Aleister Crowley. 47/
Dugin was deeply into Satanism and Black Magick & even a member of the Crowley-influenced Satanic cult Order of Nine Angle (ONA). Neo Eurasinist doctrine is based on reviving traditionalism by accelerating the End Of Days 48/
ONA & Left Hand Path(LHP) traditionalism exerted increased influence on pro-Russian flavored alt media outlets & individuals, displaying the ability to attract people from a diverse political & ideological spectrum from radical Left to the radical Right
Neo Eurasianists make a great fuss about sinister Nazi philosopher Martin Heidegger as a “Prophet” and an “Envoy of Being” who paved the foundations for LHP Satanic ideology, which is found everywhere in Putins genocidal world view 50/
Neo Eurasianism was Influenced by the school of Pan-German and pro-Nazi geopoliticians; in particular, Professors Karl Haushofer, Friedrich Ratzel, Carl Schmitt, Oswald Maull, and the Swede Rudolf Kjellén 51/
They followed the work of Julius Evola, who was one of history’s most influential esotericists and promoter of aristocratic, chauvinistic, traditionalist, hyper-masculinist & heroic values that are on the rise everywhere in today's right-wing politics 52
Russian Eurasians were strongly influenced by West European geopolitical thought, which stressed the dominant impact of geographic and demographic factors on history. With belief that Russian survival depends on constant expansion 53/
Sir Halford Mackinder, the founder of this political theory, had contacts with White Russian ideologists that dated from his service as the British high commissioner in southern Russia in 1919. 54/
In their view, Russia by itself constitutes a unique, self-sufficient civilization that grew out of two heritages: the Mongol and the Byzantine. In this view, Russia is "by nature" superior to the Western European or Roman-German civilizations 55/
Russian Eurasians believed that there is no natural border between the European and the Asian parts of the continent. They accepted the geopolitical precept that Russia, as the central part of the continent, formed a natural bridge between East & West, North & South 56/
According to this geopolitical formula, those who control the heartland also control Eurasia (or, to use their terminology, the "World Island"). Those who control the World Island dominate the world. Make no mistake, this is about world domination 57/
Accordingly, the Russian peoples did not so much conquer their enormous land mass as take possession of it, because their ethnic energy was naturally superior to that of the indigenous groups they found there. 58/
Thus, the local groups recognized this superiority and accepted a subordinate position in a harmonious process of assimilation, otherwise known as Russification or Sovietization 59/
Like Hitler, Panarin believed in a reconciliation of the Turco-Muslim minorities. Eurasianism allows them to appropriate the Russian state, which also belongs to them & to develop their identity and national consciousness, but exclusively within Russia 60/
Russification can be traced back to Nicholas 1st, who used the term "Official Nationality" coined by Nicholas’ minister of education, Count Sergei Uvarov. Famous for his formula of "Orthodoxy, Autocracy, Nationality" as the basis for a nationalist program.
