2 p. A Proxy for HATE allows the illusion of an Advanced Civilization

Hate is an emotion practiced only through the victim mentality. They are doing-it-to-us, and we are powerless to right the situation. (It can happen.) If we had the motive power we would correct it.

Correct it, either with laws, diplomacy or with force, no need for Hate.  Or hate is just a way to get everyone to agree with the next aggressive program?

[To suggest that your base-emotions can be practiced through someone else might seem offensive.  Maybe it is?  You will know if it doesn’t apply to you.  Just look; proxies do get some offensive things done.  Best if we’re not told all the details.  Those details, I am not going to tell you, so relax.  Perhaps I am the one on the WNT team that takes on these tasks.  I hope that I do not cross any lines.]

We live in the era where the "great civilization" is said to be centered in the western nations. This is the heritage of Europe, the heritage of colonial prosperity, and from the people originally called "White" Christians.  The heritage is racial, but by now there is a great mixing.  There are the privileged in prosperity, and the not-privileged in prosperity.  That is not necessarily racism, but it may sort out to be mostly that way.

The peoples of Eastern Europe have a different heritage.  I could go back to the first millennium AD and write about it. But for now, I will stick with the second millennium AD.  Territories that became Russia are a very big land, a continent, almost twice the size of USA.  Yet there are only 140 million people.

With all the uninhabited land on their continent, one is hard pressed to believe that they needed more land or more resources.  They have everything they need.   They only need more people.  But it is said that the vast open borders are indefensible.   They need a “buffer zone”, and these are like Ukraine, sometimes Poland or the Baltic States, if they would claim neutrality.  Therefore, Eastern Europe had centuries of contact with Russia, and many have learned to hate that contact.  They were also plundered just as much by the Pope’s western Christian armies.

It can also be said that during their participation in the Soviet Union, they were industrialized by Russia, or by the money from Russia, that was redistributed by the USSR.  In today’s power politics, that doesn’t count.  Of course, Russia also wanted access to the Baltic Sea, and to the Black Sea as their only warm-water port.

So, if there are western people who hate Slavic people, they can let parts of Eastern Europe do the hating for them, (and make all the hateful actions).  While western Europe can pretend that they are too “civilized” to be racists, or to hate.

Of course, it is deeper than racism.  The Soviet experiment was a life without billionaires. (The super rich of any denomination $$.)  The western oligarchs can never let that happen again.  The USSR was under constant attack, because socialism couldn’t be allowed any success, and not because they suppressed people.  Stalin had proclaimed that “we’re building socialism in one country”, and he closed the Communist International in 1943..”  So, communism was only a name, but not a reality.  They were thereafter socialists.

Here I am writing about HATE, not about communism, but western elites certainly hated the USSR.  Why haven’t they given up on that hate?  Beats me?  Probably because both the Soviets and the West built a “stable world” out of deterrence.  And that deterrence (M.A.D.), means that Russia doesn’t have to do anything the west commands it to do. 

We thought that Russia was dependent on the western dollarized financial system.  But it looks like they are not dependent on anything western, neither finance, banking, supply chains, technology nor markets.  We are also finding out that dozens of nations are looking for the existing hegemony to lose power, and will cautiously but gladly test the waters with the new multi-polar.

I started out talking about a proxy for hate.  But proxy is usually referring to hired warriors, which are also part of the hate formula.  They are “moderate rebels” or some-such jargon. Of course. no limited proxy force has the horsepower to attack head on, so it is always a terrorist operation, killing the unarmed bystanders.

Some nation or group is promised continuous backing it they attack and terrorize a stronger entity.  The leaders are made into billionaires.  It is a matter of legitimizing fear and hate, and then finding the “bodies” to actuate the attack.  Without the money to organize and arm the proxy, there could be no conflict.  Therefore, it is a war between the proxy sponsor and the victim.  The proxy is just the middleman, whose leaders are getting rich, and who may be promised some land, or their own nation at the end of the rainbow.

For the most part, the people who stand against Russia are not rabid Nazis, but ordinary Hataskrayniks who were forcibly driven to slaughter. But if you look at everything in its entirety, it was they who brought Ukraine to its current state. That same silent majority who don’t care about Bandera, or about the Russians, or the USA - as long as their farm, kindergarten, pigs are not touched, as long as they don’t run out of vodka and lard, and at least the grass doesn’t cease to grow.

They didn’t care about the Maidan, about the shelling of Donetsk and Lugansk, about the genocide of the Russian population, about the murders of children, women and the elderly, about Azov’s torture, about language bans, about the split in faith... And then it turned out that they couldn’t sit this one out, that you have to take a machine gun and die for the interests and goals of NATO.

And then they hated Russia, with a fierce, terrible hatred. Because their little farmstead-world collapsed. Because this war reminds them every day of their cowardice, weakness and silence. And in their anger, they blame Russia for everything, because they are afraid to look in the mirror and ask themselves uncomfortable questions. Of course by now the questions aren’t going to heal anything.

The proxy sponsor should also suffer the losses.  In the Ukraine, counting both sides, the killed are close to one million men by now.  But since the sponsor does not suffer, a proxy war might go on for a long time.  Just keep pouring in the money, arms, and foreign mercenaries.

It is interesting to consider the psychological tools in the current theaters of hostility.  I think it is apparent that in the west, emotionalism, hate and vindication are the backbone of western rhetoric.  The populations have the luxury of claiming that it is Ukraine, the Baltics and Poland that justifiably hate, and certainly not Europe. Are their leaders really that duplicitous, or is this just the best way to communicate with their level of the population?

In the Middle East it seems there are long memories and no forgiveness.  Revenge must be exacted.  But in China, I don’t think Hate is a factor.  They know who they are, and have no doubt about outcomes.  They are also totally wise about bluff, and moves and counter-moves. They can also sustain losses.

And with Russia it is similar.  There are no surprises nor secrets in the current conflicts.  Russians also know how it will end, while moving slow enough so that NATO is not “spooked” by a sudden change.  It is a carefully analyzed, step-by-step drama.  Whereas in the west, their firebrand tool of hate will demand immediate action, even if it is wrongheaded and guarantees a failure.

The net effect of both Ukraine and Gaza is the complete exposure of the phony western “civilization”.  There is nothing there.  Even hypocrisy is too civilized of a word.  I have seen no western nation that can exempt itself.
