Putins speech on western civilization

[holdover]

Russian President Vladimir Putin, said that woke ideology is fast destroying the Western civilisation. Putin condemned the far-left progressivism and compared it to Russia’s darkest days during the 1917 communist revolution, in which the Soviets seized the means of production and overthrew the government.

Never thought I would pose this question but can we swap him for Brandon? Now you really know the world is bass ackwards.

I just want to be left alone to live my life in freedom and liberty. Do unto me, my patience is running thin. Politicians and the media just don't get it. They're selling, I'm not buying.

........... and yet there isn't a single Marxist/Communist/Socialist country with legal same sex marriages, gender confusion and legalized promotion of pedophilia. These values materialized only in countries who fought against Marxism/Communism/Socialism.

I like Putin and overall it was a good speech, but pouring dirt on his country's history plays only into hands of its enemies. Soviet subdivision into republics inadvertently created boarders that were used to fragment Russia. Anti-Soviet movements did it on purpose.

Economic reforms should have led the way, slow and measured political reforms should have followed.

If you want to become better, you have to become self critical. Does no good to erase the past, just learn from it .

like he said the soviet union made the same mistakes in the past as the US is doing today.

Having lived in both countries, I don't see any similarities. Soviet Union had a different set of problems. What did self-criticism get Russia? Western enemies are sitting in Kiev and directing attacks on Moscow. These are historically two Russian cities. Most of the world is blaming Moscow.
Russian self-lashing as overtures to the West began at the end of Gorbachev reign. 35 years later and after a dozen or so wars and conflicts on post-Soviet territory, Russia is still being painted as a villain.

There are no gays in Russia or Iran................biblical studies indicate that the old testament and Levitcus specifically are part of Islam and Russia's Russian Orthodox church.

The USA used to be a 90% moral ethical country...but now with election stealing, to countermand the majority will of the people...............

WTF am I saying?

42 states voted down gay marriage and California did so TWICE... before that foolish SCOTUS ruling that said it was ok .......... a contract...a suicide pact with the devil Moloch.



The Abortion mentality and sex crazed gay sodomy and trans LBGTQ are simply the work of Moloch if you believe anything spiritually.......... that a God exists, then the an opposite infection exists.......evil is the work of people who follow the unholy, dirt filled urges without moral integrity or discipline.

I hope the 2nd American Republic, if it happens,corrects this big mistake, designed to destroy it....there is no freedom to do this filth in China, Cuba, N Korea.............

I believe Putin was refering to the policys under communism , the faults of communism ,which the US is also doing now.

Russia is still being painted as a villain.

Because the west needed a villian to justify NATO and the defense contractors

I think a lot of the insanity going on in the west is being created by the communists (more specifically the Chinese).

They know they can't compete militarily or economically, but they can leverage our openness and tolerance to destroy us culturally.

Once that happens, the economic collapse will force a military collapse, and they can walk right in.

I agree it is something like this . I'm pretty certain our politicians are in bed with and taking money from the Chinese, only I think its bigger than that. No doubt we are moving to a socialist form of government.

No, this was set into motion when we taught children in the 80s that they can be anything, do anything, and just gave people in general unrealistic expectations growing up of what they could accomplish. This only setup our generations for a warped view of the world and left them without the ability to contextualize and overcome obstacles.

There are four main styles of approach to parenting, and the 80s got it all wrong when we overdid it with acceptance.



We raised a generation in the "permissive" square, when we should've been raising children in the "authoritative" one. We should've been building resilience not blind acceptance.

 

[spat]

We veered that direction little in the 80s, but I think we still fostered a great deal of independence and individualism in kids who grew up in the 80s.

That may be the crack that the chi-coms are exploiting, but I think it would have been fine if it wasn't driven into the "pregnant people" insanity we have today.

It would not have gone there on it's own, without a constant degerate pressure from the entertainment and education industries.

I disagree. You want to foster individualism and independence. These are attributes of resilience. The problem was that we didn't put any demands on children of the 80s and 90s to be independent and free thinkers. Furthermore, we didn't back that those lack of demands with support help foster that independent mindset. The only thing we threw at millennial generation was common core testing.

Being strong means that you are able to face obstacles and overcome them. It means you're able to face the stresses of life. We never taught the children of the 80s and 90s how to deal with stress or adapt to overcome it. We either just gave them all a trophy and said "good job" or we get the attitude of the older generation of just "suck it up" without actually fostering the skillset to overcome stress.

The military, ironically, actually is highly invested in teaching these skills now. Comprehensive Soldier Fitness

In fact, unless what I've read is incorrect, the US military is the biggest employer of sports psychologists for teaching soldiers how to deal with stress.

Also, to be fair, a lot of my viewpoint was honed from reading a few books, the most recent of which -- which I think was a fine culmination of several books -- was: Amazon.com: Do Hard Things: Why We Get Resilience Wrong and the Surprising Science of Real Toughness (Audible Audio Edition): Steve Magness, Mike Chamberlain, HarperAudio: Audible Books & Originals

So I have to attribute most of the above to that author.

This also goes hand in hand with a "throw away" society.

No one takes the time to fix basic items... or they figure it is easier to "buy new ones"... I see that a lot with cars/trucks.

Now I get it, some things it is better to replace than to fix (or keep fixing). But it takes a certain skill to identify the time to buy new or repair. Can be anything.

I hate to see what the masses will do when SHTF hits and they need their "stuff" fixed, cause they can't get it no more... oh wait.. they'll just go crazy in the mind...

Putin and others are capitalizing on the moral decay in the West for recruitment. Lets face it, large parts of the West is morally bankrupt. He has had these speeches many times since Oct 30, 2022. They have boosted recruitment in Russia for the Ukraine war and despite what western media has reported, no one was dragged off the streets in Russia to serve. In Ukraine yes but Russia no. That's pure propaganda. Conversely, recruitment is down big time in all Western military's but the U.S., which the EU depends on, is suffering catastrophic recruitment problems. All a result of building a narrative to get rid of Trump in 2020. They have destroyed two generations with this effort and now need a 180 degree turnaround in order to preserve their global economic dominance threatened by BRICS+. I've written about that organization a number of times on here already so I won't get much into it. I will only say that it is nothing more than a group of countries binding their economies together to compete economically with the larger U.S. and EU unions which currently control all global trade. But middle RED state America is waking up finally. The patriots that are indoctrinated with the RED WHITE and BLUE, freedom and liberty mantra realize now after Jan 6th, that the Blue States and Swamp creatures in Washington are the real fight. Not China, Russia or any other part of a new economic union of countries seeking to level the economic playing field. Putin has actually at times referred to this group of Americans as needing to stand up and take back the country from the globalists.

The world is controlled by money. Bankers. I posted a long ass video about it. I understand if no one watched it as we all have been conditioned with 30 second video clips now and our attention span is that of a gold fish. lol But it's worth watching to start to begin to increase your understanding of what drives wars, civil unrest, economies, politics...ect.

Were are in the posturing phase of WW3. In this, all sides will seek to argue their intent through truths, half truths and full on BS propaganda. You ready for that? Because its starting to get thick now with the video posted in this thread. It will get worse.

I think you are confusing the 80s and 90s kids.

Unless you are referring to kids *born* in the 80s and raised in the 90s. I would call them 90s kids, since they were kids in the 90s.

I am talking about the people who were born in the 70s and were "kids" in the 80s.

The Chinese can never walk right in. This country could implode and they still don't have the resources for an invasion. Their tactics are all about crippling us enough to prevent us from assisting Taiwan when they invade. On that score they are very well advanced.
