LOL! This is too funny! Your theory was that the National Bolshevist Dugin was a close buddy of Putin, yet you’re now citing his conspiracy theory that his fellow Bolshevists abandoned him because they’re trying to suck up to the Russian Orthodox Church?

I didn’t attack the subjective portions of your post because they are subjective. I attacked your objective assertion because it was plainly, objectively, ridiculously false, thus impeaching your subjective interpretations.

The Orthodox Church (and to be fair, the Catholic Church) has been an arm of the Russian government since the beginning of the Cold War.* And if the Russians don't approve of a church, they close it.

Where did I say Dugin was a "close buddy" of Putin? I don't know if they are personal friends. This is your distortion. I said that Dugin has a top position in a University and is featured on state-run Russian media, on top of having ties with the Kremlin. All of this is true, and, being true, that obviously means he has support from the regime, otherwise he would never be allowed to maintain such a position. And where in the quote that I provided is there any indication that Dugin is blaming the communist party of acting reflexively as national conservatives and Orthodox Monarchists? This is merely an observation, not an accusation.

I can't help but to notice that perfectly normal Freepers in the past, now basically write posts like they are fighting a propaganda war against their opponents. Your posts consistently spin and distort what others write.
