AMOR FATI

My two posts about russian war against us. Tried to be brief because if to write scientifically, there should be a libraries of books about terrifying true face of the “enigmatic russian soul”.

I guess, all what putin wants – is to hold on to his empire even if it will become a pile of dirt. He still hopes to remain on top of that pile. Because in russia that is the only place where no one shits on your head. And he thinks, war is the only way to keep him on top.

I mean, it’s not about restoring any ussr, it’s not about wanting anything else but survive as the only not covered in shit one. And thus he must feed illusions to his flock and keep them drugged with that elusive and unclear paranoic ideas of russian heroic supremacy over hostile world.

There is no full-scale russian ideology, just a pool of vague images comes from the post-soviet literature combined with an (traditionally) infantile way of thinking. It’s like a homunculus made of shards of the soviet socialism.

I guess, this war is like a necessary phase of the (any?) dictator’s vital activity. Imminent self-destruction which sucks other societies into it’s deadly black hole.

I don’t think he’s going to stop before any harm, so he must be stopped and the system which produces this kind of psychopaths must be dismantled.

I want to make an addendum to my previous thoughts.

I.

First, I didn’t say how the war seems like salvation for putin. It’s simple, he and his clique are unable to create a stable economy in russia. The only trade they are good at is just selling out resources. They sat on gas and oil and successively pumped the outcome to the West. That’s why the West now can squeeze their balls so hard.

Why do they act like that? Because they are children of their ancestors, who long ago realized that russia can only be as good as a raw material mine for the more technologically advanced states. So, they gave up on building a bright future for their land and just used it as a milch cow. To keep their flock at hand they learned to create all these nonsensical ideologies.

But in order for them to work, russian elites had to prevent their slaves of realization of the reasons why their life is so shitty. So they made a foreign enemy, just the way nazi Germany or any other fascist society did. Somehow, it was always the image of the bad West that overweighted the feeling that it is really their own political system that is responsible for making their life shitty. It always fitted russian people’s thinking because it relieved them of responsibility for their lives and choices. They gladly accepted this ideology because it made everything simple and easy for them to feel good about themselves.

When shitty russian social system started to fall apart, when russian people tasted the West more and got more of it’s democratic ideals, when there have appeared social groups who legitimately felt no ressentiment towards western culture (so they started to have suspicions about true nature of shittiness of russian life), a new dose of russianism had to be prescript. So, they used the Ukrainian political crisis as a justification of the first, hybrid intervention back in 2014.

That “victory” created a huge injection of dopamine for russians. Their self-made ressentiment towards Ukraine (who became a traitor and a loyalist of the bad West in their narrative) was satisfied, their will for greatness (instead of will for less shitty life) was satisfied with the occupation of “primordially russian” Crimea. I still remember how my friends at the time, intelligent russians who had never shown any hatred towards Ukrainians before, – were screaming in glee “Crimea is ours!” (“Крым наш!”) So, it worked! putin legitimized himself and the russian establishment for another 8 years. And I have no more friends there since.

Now it’s the time of the second dose – the full-scale war. For the same purpose – to fortify the zombieland again for as long as possible. They don’t care about their milch cow, they don’t care that there is no more milk, just blood – as long as they remain on their positions and their skin still bunkered against the shit of other psychopaths right next to them.

Talking about genocide – which this war certainly is – it’s not like this is the goal of russians it’s JUST THE WAY THEY FUCKING DO.

It’s how they push their victims into submission. No honor, no principles, just a psychopathic modus operandi. It’s the mean to pursue the solving of different tasks. One of them – to show these goddamn Ukrainians their place, to strip them of their freedom, of their will and their European longing. And then they would sing a song either of them being saviors, if they would win, or the “it’s putin’s fault” one, or maybe “we never knew” which their captured militants sing as they actually lose.

I want to ask: “How have you never known anything when you shelled the entire fucking city to the ground? How come it has never crossed your mind that this is not the military object you shell in that quantity?” I don’t buy any russian attempts to walk away of this genocidal murders, to put it all on their ruling clique. If you are truly sorry, don’t say “it’s not my fault” for you were always a part of a problem as well. Plea guilty and patiently carry on all the punishment and consequences of your choices and committed actions. Take responsibility for your fucking country the way germans did.

II.

About the “strength” of their army. This “strength” depends on the quantity and the policy of total absence of respect for the lives or health of their soldiers. “Let them perish, the women will carry another ones” – famous words by the “great” russian marshal Zhukov appears to be still legit up until these days. They are too lazy for quality. They only good at creating psychopaths that carry out the will of masters and keep slaves from fleeing either by feeding them another portion of “russian world” ideas or by threatening with tortures and death.

Another column of their “strength” is attacking vulnerable to sow fear and despair. As I said before, genocide as a modus operandi. This system must be dismantled, russian people need to be de-imperialized (or whatever their freaking religion can be named) and suffer all the consequences of the war their country waged, whenever they are pro or antiwar (because after defeat they all will suddenly become convinced pacifists, just the way germans did after WW2).
