Dugin
Update: @TrevorLoudon1 has this now-deleted video from 2024 where Dugin explains that the purpose of SPIEF–the event in Russia that Candace is speaking at–is ideological warfare against the West for a “Multipolar World.” Not economics, as the name of the Forum would indicate.… pic.twitter.com/SJO3iFVNVa

James Lindsay is a Zionist who has nailed his colours firmly to the mast regarding his support for Greater Israel and the ongoing genocide. According to him all who do not support the Zionist agenda must be Communists. Of course that is nonsense and nothing is ever black and white. I have not watched the video below yet but I am guessing that his critique of Dugin will be correct. Always remember that there are no good guys. In Dugin’s philosophy, the concept of turning back to “old paths” is not just simple political conservatism—it is a radical, metaphysical rejection of the modern Western world.
Before Dugin was a geopolitical strategist, he was an esoteric thinker deeply influenced by Perennial Traditionalism—specifically the works of 20th-century philosophers like René Guénon and Julius Evola.
To Traditionalists, human history is not a story of progress, but one of severe spiritual decline (the Hindu Kali Yuga or the Iron Age). The “old paths” represent a return to a primordial, sacred truth that existed before the Enlightenment. In other words a neo-paganist, a sort of New Age Theosophy. In other words not a Christian.

Dugin is part of the “Dark Enlightenment” movement which I mention towards the end of my video (in case you missed it):

There are similarities between the philosophies of Dugin and Curtis Yarvin who influences “conservatives” like Peter Thiel etc,
The “Peter Thiel is fleeing America” story is so unserious. Fleeing what? His protégé is vice president, his companies feed on government contracts, and his politics are already sitting in the room.

The idea that this guy is being treated as an authority on Christianity is just absurd. He is re-framing what it means to be Christian for his own ends, and it should be obvious.
