Clayton Morris on Redacted had a very interesting talk with German MEP Christine Anderson about the state of European affairs at this astonishing juncture in time. She reminds us of the fertile ground that Western Europe still is for anti Russian propaganda, as they deliberately confuse present day Russia with the Soviet Union. This is possible because very few people in Europe today understand basic philosophy. Why do people act as they do? They act according to their values and beliefs. Communism was a totalitarian ideology with a program that believed the entire world would become Communist. And the leaders of the Soviet Union acted in the world accordingly. Any observer can see that present day Russia is an entire different place. But tell the morons Putin is a dictator, and they're willing to start a school yard feud to 'save democracy'.
March 28, 2025 Redacted: Christine Anderson on why Europe is COLLAPSING on purpose and Germany’s fascist reality.
Also not unimportant, Anderson calls to mind what started the entire history with Ukraine and the Western obsession dragging the country into NATO/EU's orbid against international agreements. The coup masterminded by US State Dept. neocon operatives like Geoffrey Pyatt and Victoria Nuland, are by now well known.
Anderson exposes the hysterical calls for war against Russia for the last ditch effort that it is, by a force clinging to power that is spent, has become the very tyranny it is supposed to prevent, and has outlasted its historical significance.
The stunning and frightening part is where Anderson is drawing comparisons with the rule of that other totalitarian party, that ruled Germany in the run up to WW2. Stuff like that comes cheap nowadays, but if it quacks like a duck, you know what time it is in Europe.
As Anderson explains, the mechanisms are always the same. Belgian Professor of Clinical Psychology,Mattias Desmet making sense of the C-flue era, has pointed out in his book, "The Psychology of Totalitarianism" (bookfinder) that the root must be sought in the mechanistic world view that came to dominate the West since the Renaissance and the Scientific Revolution.
In our posts, How To Beat the Meaning Crisis (Part 3) (link) and in "Creation Is Not a Cuckoo Clock!" (link), we described it as follows:
"It explains the apparent contradiction, that a philosophy that sought to liberate man has turned out to be another vehicle for tyranny. It always contained that kernel that leads to the utopian condition in which the moral ideal becomes so ennobled that it legitimizes universal force. It is exactly what we see."
The dualistic approach to the universe since Neoplatonism, that divides the world into two irreconcilable entities (the one material 'down here' and the other, unseen realm 'out there' in another universe) has done the rest for a continent that is permanently at war with itself.
Totalitarian ideologies have thrived on that dualistic mindset after it was instrumentalized by Enlightenment thinkers like Kant, Hegel and Marx. This dualism leads to thinking in opposing concepts and an adversary attitude. You are either for, or against us. You are a democrat, or a fascist. Every notion of nuance and balance, that really makes the world tick, goes out of the window.
While Liberalism started out as an ideology that championed individual freedom as its highest value, it was in our era finally captured by a group of deep state sponsored globalists that turned Liberalism into its opposite. It did not take much. It took only one of its pillars to turn from individual sovereignty to the supremacy of statism under globalist control.
It must be said that not all critics would go as far as blaming Liberalism for the current state of affairs. There are still tons of people -- like clinical psychologist Jordan Peterson -- who think Liberalism is great and is the victim, instead of part of the problem. Anderson is also holding out as a protagonist of liberal values, like 'individualism and equality'.
Personally, after 25 years of observation, I believe the 'them' that Anderson can't answer, are the institutionalized intellectual and cultural elites you can find in academe, journalism and the media, education, the judiciary, all levels of governance, NGOs, the entertainment industry, etc. etc. I think we all know by now who are part of the cabal. That parasitic class includes a large part of big, transnational corporations and their oligarchs.
By the way, what Anderson explains happened in Germany after the latest elections in February, has been going on in many countries in Europe for decades. Democracy as we once understood it, has been dead for a long time. What we are left with is a bandwidth of pre-selected people to choose from, East German style. Latest example: Romania.
Sorry we can't bring better news. But every student of history knows how this goes. Old structures that no longer serve their purpose, die off. Either by being taken over by younger, more vibrant forces, or by re-inventing themselves and adapting to new requirements. The choice is really up to us.
Europeans still believe they have no power beyond the ballot box. But our American brothers know better. We have stressed for years, the fact that politics is downstream of culture. Part of culture are family values. So here's an idea to start working towards a new future. In Europe we already have a model to emulate: Viktor Orban's Hungary!
