History of Europe and the Next Russian Grand Idea [48]
We need a new idea. Communism is dead. (...) Russkiy Mir is not working either. We are in search of the next great idea.
Yes, the old historical Russian ideas are pretty much dead - I think we can also add Panslavism to your list. They are all in the trash bin of history, so what should be the next Russian Great Idea (RGI)?
Believe it or not but I actually gave it some thought.
This is something that Russia should consider as carefully as the cтратегические системы «Посейдон» и «Буревестник» that Veli likes to tell me about in his always interesting PMs.
Of course the retard who came up with the idea of promoting Russia as the mainstay of conservative, bourgeois values, morality and sexual purity should be sent to the worst Siberian penal colony there is to brood over his mental retardation, because not even absolute
debils like Ryszard can seriously believe it.
Here's what I think Russia should promote as her next RGI:
1. Total rejection of Social Darwinism and its idea of competition, struggle and the survival of the fittest in the social life, but without strangling entrepreneurship, creativity and private property rights; difficult? sure - but if you manage to do it, you have bought Scandinavia, Ireland, France and PIGS (that's half of Europe already).
2. Also, instead of pretending to be conservative western bourgeois paradise (I mean, really...
*galactic eyeroll*) Russia should accentuate positive Eastern values like: communality, rootedness in a multi-generational community, and ethic of work for common good instead of venal mercantile calculation. If you do that properly, then you have just bought overwhelming majority of former Soviet bloc countries. That's almost entire Europe already.
Here's something that already exists and can totally enchant most of post-communist bloc countries...

... simple life, communal life, close to nature, without the constant struggle and greed. Promote this channel like crazy.
3. If you manage to connect points 1. and 2. (and it shouldn't be too hard to do, you must admit) to Christianity and joy of life, as well as to freedom (this might be a bit more tricky) then you have bought even Poland and the very core of the EU (Germany, Netherlands, Austria etc.).
Why am I giving such high quality advice to our enemy? Because if this enemy follows the advice, they will stop being an enemy and will turn into a desirable potential ally.
So, that's the RGI that most of Europe would be more than happy to follow. It would solve the "unsolvable" problems of low birth rates, social atomization and overwhelming lack of meaning of life in the decadent western societies. It would be the great blending of East and West, the great unification of two ostensibly incompatible systems.
Don't thank me. Always happy to help. :)
