RGTOW & CGTOW?: Russia And China Should Follow Demonised Western Men's Example And Go Their Own Way

The West is the last thing they need

By Dr. Paul Craig Roberts: Yesterday Russia created a new world. The Hegemon is dead. Today Russia and China should begin their disengagement  from the West, while remaining wary that the Satanic concoction is capable of striking with nuclear weapons while in its death throes. There is nothing in the West worth having.  The countries have already given away their most important industries to the Chinese and renounced the civil liberties of their citizens.  As the Covid mandates prove, the West no longer believes in the values that it mouths.  People who exercise, or attempt to exercise, their constitutional rights to free speech and freedom of association are branded “domestic terrorists.”  Their voices are suppressed, they are fired from their jobs, their medical licenses are taken away, they are arrested and imprisoned.  The Western World has been transformed into a hellhole of tyranny.

Russian economists, brainwashed by American neoliberals, are, without realizing it, among Russia’s worst enemies.  They have been indoctrinated to believe that Russian economic development depends on access to Western financing.  This is total nonsense.

The Gathering Storm In The West

Few are listening any more to the clueless Justin Trudeaus and bumbling Joe Bidens and all the toxic hypocrisies they embody...

Canada is now governed by absurdism and it is symptomatic of an ailing Western elite.

Authored by Victor Davis Hanson: Liberal Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau last week invoked martial law to arrest and financially destroy truckers on the charge that their largely peaceful protests are “dismantling the Canadian economy” that had already been dismantled for two years under some of the most draconian lockdowns in the world. The trucker “sect,” Trudeau added, is guilty of felonious “unacceptable views.” But his rhetoric still cannot square the circle of demonizing vital workers while conceding he cannot run his country without them. 

He has invoked the Emergencies Act for the first time in the law’s 34-year history, even as the highly infectious Omicron variant wanes after spreading natural immunity and yet proving relatively mild in its effects. Trudeau has neither science nor good governance on his side, especially given how civil the protests have been.

Perhaps The US Should Shut The Fuck Up About Respecting Other Countries’ Sovereignty

'The absolute worst violator of national sovereignty in the entire world by a truly gargantuan margin [Jews' vassal nation USA] complaining about violations of national sovereignty is bat shit insane.'

By Caitlin Johnstone: So Putin has finally made a move, issuing a decree formally recognizing the sovereignty of the separatist-held Donbas territories in eastern Ukraine known as the DPR and LPR. Russian troops are being deployed to the region in what Putin describes as a “peacekeeping” mission amid a dramatic spike in ceasefire violations.

“The recognition of the DPR and LPR means Russia’s withdrawal from the Minsk agreements, which were signed in 2014 and 2015 to establish the ceasefire in eastern Ukraine,” writes Antiwar’s Dave Decamp. “Under the Minsk agreements, Ukraine agreed to cede some autonomy to the DPR and LPR. Russia has grown increasingly frustrated over the fact that Kyiv hasn’t fulfilled its end of the agreement.”

The Crisis In Ukraine Is Not About Ukraine - It's About Germany

“The primordial interest of the United States, over which for centuries we have fought wars– the First, the Second and Cold Wars– has been the relationship between Germany and Russia, because united there, they’re the only force that could threaten us. And to make sure that that doesn’t happen.” George Friedman, STRATFOR CEO at The Chicago Council on Foreign Affairs

By Mike Whitney: The Ukrainian crisis has nothing to do with Ukraine. It’s about Germany and, in particular, a pipeline that connects Germany to Russia called Nord Stream 2. Washington sees the pipeline as a threat to its primacy in Europe and has tried to sabotage the project at every turn. Even so, Nord Stream has pushed ahead and is now fully-operational and ready-to-go. Once German regulators provide the final certification, the gas deliveries will begin. German homeowners and businesses will have a reliable source of clean and inexpensive energy while Russia will see a significant boost to their gas revenues. It’s a win-win situation for both parties.
