“Overt deployment of troops is a straightforward operation; deployment before it becomes manifest is a surprise operation. If we mount a surprise operation and the enemy does not respond to it, the victory is ours. An excess of surprise operations, however, will overshoot the mark of victory.” Sun Pin It has been a long time

Of things that go bump in the night there is no end. Forty years ago, three work colleagues, renting a house in Dana Point, gave up their lease and fled the property – accepting the financial loss incurred – because the place, they said, was haunted.

“Our juvenile pride in rejecting any attempt to understand evil is potentially catastrophic. For obviously we cannot manage or control a process we do not understand. This is so self-evident it hurts. We must understand evil, not only abstractly, but intimately. We must grasp what makes an evildoer tick, their outlook, motivations, the psychological rewards

“No form of order, no reasonable legitimacy or legality can exist without protection and obedience. The protego ergo obligo is the cogito ergo sum of the state.

“The left thrives on dialectics, the right perishes through them. Insofar as there is a pure logic of politics, it is that. One immediate consequence (repeatedly emphasized by Mencius Moldbug) is that progressivism has no enemies to the left. It recognizes only idealists, whose time has not yet come. Factional conflicts on the left are

“I worry because in the event of Putin’s demise the floodgates of Western illusions will be open once more, perhaps wider than ever since the so-called ‘collapse of the Soviet Union,’ even as a fresh set of hypnotically attractive deceptions is mounted by the secret police dynasty that actually rules the country.” Andrei Navrozov{On Substack.com}

Today’s military crisis in Europe should have been anticipated, but our strategists lacked foresight.

“Before long, the communist strategists might be persuaded that the balance had swung irreversibly in their favor.

“As we stand here today, closer to the brink of nuclear annihilation than ever before, political elite warmongers are carelessly fomenting fear and tension between nuclear powers.

“The old Marxist model of socialism is no longer attractive.

The first quote, above, from a Soviet textbook, is important for what it says about the main objective of Moscow’s information war doctrine for the last 100 years; that is, to discredit anticommunism.

“In short, then, what Dugin proposes is that National Bolshevism takes from the ‘metaphysics’ of Marxism a secret, initiatory Gnosticism and mysticism which seeks to accomplish a spiritual alchemy to transform society – National Bolshevism thus becomes a secret society bent on a theurgic, magic transformation of reality.” James D.

The best way to control the opposition is to lead it ourselves. Lenin Controlled opposition is a special technique. The tsars used it to maintain their power, and so did Chinese emperors.

He even predicted that the Communist Party would give up its monopoly of power in Russia. The Cold War, in effect, would be over.

In the same year that Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels published their Communist Manifesto (1848), Søren Kierkegaard published his remarkable book, The Sickness Unto Death. Part II of that book was titled, “Despair is sin.” If we indulge in diversionary speculations, said Kierkegaard, instead of living in faith, we fall into a labyrinth in which

I begin with the notion of some one other world, from which objects and substances have fallen to this earth; which had, or which, to less degree, has a tutelary interest in this earth; which is now attempting to communicate with this earth – modifying, because of data which will pile up later, into acceptance

To say that we recognize only a straight road, would be a mistake. Vladimir Lenin [i] Even many of the well-meaning, intelligent, and leading citizens of open countries where debate is unhindered, and opinions may be expressed freely have lacked the perspicacity to see through the finely woven veil of the Soviet spider.

There is no community of language with the representatives of the dominant ideologies. Hence, the community of language that he himself wants to use in order to criticize the users of ideological language must first be discovered and, if necessary, established.

Nobody now disputed that what occurred was a monstrous crime, but – committed by whom? Who is guilty? How did it happen that nobody saw this sooner? You will not find the guilty. One lot will insist that they knew nothing; another, that they were afraid; others still, that they believed. Vladmir Bukovsky[i] General Laura

The very possibility that there are timeless truths is a reproach to the life of laxness and indifference that modern egotism encourages. Richard M.

It was while I was going over these stories that I realized for the first time just how important a part of the communist movement in America the teachers were.

People get into this condition [i.e., ignorance] through their own fault, by the slackness of their lives; i.e., they make themselves unjust or licentious by behaving dishonestly or spending their time in drinking and other forms of dissipation; for in every sphere of conduct people develop qualities corresponding to the activities they pursue.” Aristotle [i]

The nominalism of a dogma that has separated from experience … has become the dominant form of the West because it was, beginning with the eighteenth century, adopted as the intellectual form of ideologizing.

…the USSR was designed and developed as (1) a resource base for the world revolution and (2) its military mobilization apparatus. And, if we consider its subsequent history on the basis of these goals and objectives, then all the actions of the Soviet authorities in the 1920s-50s, which sometimes seem insane, acquire an exhaustive logical

In reality, the main emphasis of the KGB is not in the area of intelligence at all. According to my opinion … only about 15 percent of time, money, and manpower is spent on espionage as such. The other 85 percent is [engaged in] a slow process which we call … ideological subversion or active

The Soviet Strategic Plan for the establishment of their ‘Socialism’ worldwide does, without doubt, exist and, however flexible and pragmatic Soviet policy appears, it is essentially directed towards the achievements of the Plan’s objectives — objectives which have been, are and will remain utterly inimical to and subversive of the freedoms enjoyed by the states

It is naïve to assume that the lower depths of the Sovietological inferno – that is, of Western ignorance and ineptitude in the study of totalitarianism – are where they have always been politically.

If the Fourth Political Practice is not able to realize the end of times, then it would be invalid. The end of days should come; but it will not come by itself. This is a task, it is not a certainty. It is active metaphysics. It is a practice.” Aleksandr Dugin, The Fourth Political Theory

In history, the Western powers used warships and opium to colonize China. Now the opposite has happened.

Ukraine is on a razor’s edge. The whole thing hangs in the balance. It could go either way. The Ukrainian elite is rotten. It is psychologically Soviet. Poroschenko is just another apparatchik.

The Russians have taken the European nineteenth century at its word, understood its core ideas and drawn the ultimate conclusions from its cultural premises. We always live in the eye of the more radical brother, who compels us to draw the practical conclusion and pursue it to the end. Altogether … one thing is certain:
