However, I tend to use Occam’s Razor on these matters, look to the obvious instead of dark forces working from the shadows.

Another comment here I forgot to make. The dark forces thing was a discussion from some other writer (actually, it is a literature paper tracing occultism in Russian popular culture), if you click the link. The U.S. has occultism in our popular culture pretty heavy too, to be fair, but the overall point was that Russia is hardly a Christian paradise; and, two, their occultism is even creepier and scarier than ours, insomuch that it is a view held by people in positions of influence, of which Dugin was only one.

I think it would be a stretch to go from this to a "satanic conspiracy." But the comparison between Russia and these mystical nationalists with their interest in "volkish" religions, and Nazi Germany and Hitler's interest in the same, is worth considering when thinking about the route Russia is going in as a country.

Bottom line: Do not believe the stupidity about Russia becoming a Christian empire.

We agree on the bottom line. I just see Russia being aggressive and expansionist because that is who they are. Have been for centuries.
