Major props for posting up the interview and the new HEAT from ya boy! The other interviews offered a very interesting perspective too, which was perhaps more optimistic and less cynical than mine - which is great to take in, in order to stay sane.
Thank you sincerely Edward - I learnt much from each interview and resonated particularly with Lil’ Kremlin's analysis of a 'western' newbie Russophile and Muscovite's first response explaining the Russian character and how Russians got their "Russianness" back following the Communist 'revolution' - that's exactly the insight I have been looking for and formulating in my own mind.

Actually, by way of a footnote, I came to the conclusion long ago that the Western animus toward Russia is not so much that "Russia watchers" in the West hate Putin and Russian authoritarian government - which, of course, they do - but, most of all, they hate and fear authentic Russianess: that is to say, a Russian identity harnessed to Orthodox Christianity. Scratch a "Russia expert" and you'll often find an hostility deeper than anti-Putinism and that is a hatred for the anti-modernity of Russian Orthodoxy. With such thoughts in mind, I was also much struck by this remark from Muscovite:
"This COVID debacle, plus the real possibility of military conflict with the West, could very likely cause the complete collapse of the globalist factions in Russia, and the ascendance of a more nationalist, anti-globalist, anti-Western elite."
This touches on what occidental Russia experts most dread: the rise, post-Putin, of a more conservative, more traditional, more religious Russia.
I don't have a harsh word to offer. On the contrary, I was deeply impressed by the remarks of Muscovite, in particular, this:
" ... The globalist forces, who are deeply embedded in the government, have been exposed, and identified as the enemy by powerful factions in society and government. It is interesting that the resistance was led by nationalist, conservative, Christian, and traditionalist elements of society. These sentiments represent the majority of the Russian population, and this conflict has been the first time since the end of the USSR that the government really clashed with them.
"Given this scenario, I would say that Russians have a better chance at throwing back this assault on their freedom, better than in the spiritually more weakened and zombified West. Also, critically, in this story, Putin was on the side of the globalists. He may have made a critical mistake in going along with the Schwabian agenda coming from the West. In doing so, he certainly has lost enormous support from his main power base—conservative Russia. He is unlikely to risk alienating that base further, especially in an environment of possible military conflict with the West."
Due to the isolation from communism, Russia is about 40 years behind the west culturally speaking which is the good news. The bad news is due to the internet and other exposure they are now catching up with the west at breakneck speed. Look at all those beautiful well-dressed girls in Moscow and you will notice that the western disease "cartoon skin" (tattoos) is beginning to take hold with some rapidity. Men dress as sloppy in Russia as they do in the America now--just different kinds of camouflage. Hate to point this out but that "music" you posted is also proof of this—nothing more ridiculous than a white guy doing rap especially when it is a white Russian guy. I have seen the videos on TV of white Russian guys dressing and acting like black gangsters--not something to aspire to. Russia has given the world some of its most beautiful music but all that can be done now is to imitate these criminals? Russians at least still dress their children for the weather still unlike America where I have seen children in the schoolyard playing in the snow--in short pants. The thing I like least about Russia is the visa regime. Even when I get to Russia I still have to have this migration card which can be a hassle if you travel around the country. We were treated like criminals in a Siberian city by the immigration people when all we were trying to do is follow the rules. I am just disappointed in Russia, because they have a once in a lifetime opportunity to take center stage in world affairs, but instead they are just going along with the whole farce. Nowhere to run and nowhere to hide now.
Muscovite: "Putin was on the side of the globalists. He may have made a critical mistake in going along with the Schwabian agenda coming from the West."
Interesting. The thing is, If Putin was already a Schawbian, which one would be if one is a Young Global Leader (aka gangster), then there was no question that Putin would take orders from the hoaxsters behind the covid hoax. A baker doesn't make a critical mistake if he switches from being relatively idle to baking bread. If there's a critical mistake, it's in the chosen profession, period.
Marxism, Socialism, or Communism in practice are nothing but state-capitalism and rule by a privileged minority, exercising despotic and total control over a majority having virtually no property or legal rights. As is discussed elsewhere herein, Talmudic Judaism is the progenitor of modem Communism and Marxist collectivism as it is now applied to a billion or more of the world’s population.
Only through thorough understanding of the ideology from which this collectivism originates, and those who dominate and propagate it, can the rest of the world hope to escape the same fate. Communism — Socialism was originated by Jews and has been dominated by them from the beginning.
There is no moral, philosophical or ethical conflict whatsoever between Judaism and Marxist collectivism as they exist in actual practice. Marxism, to which all branches of Socialism necessarily adhere, was originated by a Jew, Karl Marx, himself of Rabbinical descent. Every Jewish source today boasts of his rabbinical ancestry, and his “keen dialectical ability” (as presumably manifested by his abstruse, hairsplitting, Das Kapital) being due to his Talmudic inheritance.

OT... so to speak. PCR Interviewed by GEOFOR on US/Russia Talks @ https://www.paulcraigroberts.org/2022/01/17/pcr-interviewed-by-geofor-on-us-russia-talks/ Agreed on everything, minus "whether Ukraine invades Donbass" as nobody can do that, not even as a way of committing suicide... I have served as sapper in the army, not as fortress troop, veterinarian, or medical, where engineer troops are the ones who should open the way; they don't have the airspace, they can only fancy to enter via ground, = IMPOSSIBLE, maybe in Kenya, but never in Donbass. Otherwise, I second PCR on the 'm' mistakes the Kremlin has done, Lavrov IIANM is not part of Putin's clan. Also, RU lost monstrously with the subordinate line it took with the false flag of the pandemic, it will take decades to restore its image.

For me this has been one of your most informative substack posts. Please more like this.
Thanks for interesting interviews.

Excellent, simply excellent, Edward! Thanks for the interviews and for coming up with this format!

Australia which started out on AstraZeneca but is now solidly on Pfizer approves Sputnik for entry. Suggests some 'similarities'?

I just discovered your substack today, and I am LOVING it so much!! So happy.
