>It is feasible and easy everywhere to undermine administrative power and in fact it has been drastically weakened in all Western countries. The defense of individual rights has reached such extremes as to make society as a whole defenseless against certain individuals.
>Destructive and irresponsible freedom has been granted boundless space. Society appears to have little defense against the abyss of human decadence, such as, for example, misuse of liberty for moral violence against young people, such as motion pictures full of pornography, crime, and horror. It is considered to be part of freedom and theoretically counterbalanced by the young people's right not to look or not to accept. Life organized legalistically has thus shown its inability to defend itself against the corrosion of evil.
>Such a tilt of freedom in the direction of evil has come about gradually, but it was evidently born primarily out of a humanistic and benevolent concept according to which there is no evil inherent to human nature. The world belongs to mankind and all the defects of life are caused by wrong social systems, which must be corrected. Strangely enough, though the best social conditions have been achieved in the West, there still is criminality and there even is considerably more of it than in the pauper and lawless Soviet society.
>The turn introduced by the Renaissance evidently was inevitable historically. The Middle Ages had come to a natural end by exhaustion, becoming an intolerable despotic repression of man's physical nature in favor of the spiritual one. Then, however, we turned our backs upon the Spirit and embraced all that is material with excessive and unwarranted zeal. This new way of thinking, which had imposed on us its guidance, did not admit the existence of intrinsic evil in man nor did it see any higher task than the attainment of happiness on earth. It based modern Western civilization on the dangerous trend to worship man and his material needs.
I’ve had the chance to read almost 90% of his bibliography ( even the famous «Two hubdred years together» which was perfectly and officially translated in French ) and I must admit it : he is by far the most important writer of the XX century
Chase Ortiz
Not far off.
Owen Evans
it does not cease to amaze me how you people still worship this lying propagandist.
as much as I like past and present russia, I have to say you guys made a big mistake with the whlole soviet thing, not a much as we did with the "lumières" and the révolution but not far behind
Jack Morales
He was being paid by the CIA while in Gulag?
Eli Ross
In USA, where he lived and wrote his fanfiction about Ebil Regime. The guy is your typical liberal who would scream "Fuck Drumpf" if he was alive today. But because he hated USSR, you lick his ass.
Gavin Carter
he was right about hating the ussr even if he did it because he was paid by the cia also most of his books were more or less right, he even criticized the west, look at op
Wyatt Nguyen
>fanficition Okay Vlad, I am curious. Do you have anything, even a youtube video, that goes over exactly what was fraudulent about his accounts?
Connor Martinez
Don't fucking tell me you guys regret overthrowing the monarchy...
Robert Gomez
>he was right about hating the ussr From western perspective, probably, it's your opinion afterall. And no one would have a problem with some critic. But what he did was not ordinary critic. He practised demonization and disinformation.
Brody Myers
>Was he White? Let's not get into that argument again.
Noah Hughes
It doesn't really matter what you think of the USSR, or anything else of the sort.
His pure fictitious work aside, his political stance was agitating for Nuclear assault by the US against the USSR, a nuclear capable power too. youtube.com/watch?v=VwAri8kyzTA
Absolutely no sane man, whether Russian or American, may support this maniac.
Zachary Ross
I'm not sure about the monarchy but I know for fact that what happened next was really bad for everyone russia is great, communism is shit, sadly enough a negative and a positive make a negative btw I'm not saying the west was better ideologically speaking
Benjamin Adams
The Soviet Union was an apex of Russia, and rebirth from chaos or collapse, too. If it was a "mistake" for some neighbours that were forced under our boot, that is no concern of ours.
Matthew Thomas
Haha, didn't know about that one. Truly a patriot and greatest mind of a generation!
Gavin Torres
this is that imperialist way of thnking that I hate in strong countries usa, russia and england and france used to be like this people being strong always need to give proof by hurting the weaker ones btw communism was bad even for russians
