  • PUTIN’S COMMON SENSE
    January 22, 2022


    The Communists were crazy yesterday.
    Warring on God, they are just as sick today.



    Common sense is becoming so rare today that from wherever it comes it must be welcomed. Some people think that President Vladimir Putin of Russia is merely a pawn of the world power presently using Covid to arrive at an anti-human dictatorship over the entire world. That may be partly true, insofar as that same power already has such control over world affairs that Putin could hardly have become a world leader without its consent. On the other hand other people think that he is the one true statesman on the present world scene, because of his good sense for the true interests of the entire world, and not just Russia. In any case he is capable of talking common sense like few politicians today. See for instance this summary of part of his speech last October 21 at the annual meeting of the Valdai Discussion Club in Sochi, Russia, bringing together nearly 300 participants from academia, politics and the media. English language link:  Putin´s speech at the plenary session of the 18th Valdai Club – Global Review (global-review.info)


    Some people in the West believe that an aggressive elimination of entire pages from their own history, “reverse discrimination” against the majority in the interests of a particular minority, and the demand to give up the traditional notions of mother, father, family and even gender, are mileposts on the path towards social renewal.


    The advocates of so-called ‘social progress’ believe they are introducing humanity to some kind of new and better consciousness. However, their prescriptions are not new at all. Russia has been there already. After the 1917 revolution, the Bolsheviks, relying on the dogmas of Marx and Engels, also said that they would change existing ways and customs, indeed the very notion of human morality and the foundations of a healthy society. The destruction of age-old values, religion and relations between people, up to and including the total rejection of family with closest relations denouncing one another to the State, was proclaimed as progress then, and was widely supported around the world, as now.


    The fight for equality and against discrimination in Western countries has turned into aggressive dogmatism bordering on absurdity. The works of the great authors of the past such as Shakespeare, are no longer taught at schools or universities. The classics are declared backward and ignorant of the importance of gender or race. In Hollywood memos are distributed about how many characters of what colour or gender should be in a movie. This is even worse than the Agitprop department of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union.


    Zealots of these new approaches even go so far as to want to abolish these concepts altogether. Anyone who dares mention that men and women actually exist, which is a biological fact, is browbeaten with horrendous “Newspeak,” denying the fact. This is nothing new; in the 1920s, the so-called Soviet “In-culturers” also invented a Newspeak, believing they were creating a new consciousness and changing values that way. They made such a mess it still makes one shudder.


    Today it is monstrous when children are taught from an early age that a boy can easily become a girl and vice versa. It verges on a crime against humanity, and it is being done in the name and under the banner of progress. The cost of such ill-conceived social experiments is sometimes beyond estimation. Such actions can destroy not only the material, but also the spiritual foundations of human existence, leaving behind a moral wreckage where nothing can be built to replace it for a long time.

  • I’m wondering whether the sudden and surprising abrogation of COVID19 restrictions in England and Ireland has anything to do with preparing for war with Russia (ie., Can’t have depressed economies when fighting a war, and large populations of antigovernment sentiment become a security risk when your own people are cheering for the other team).

    If this trend is followed in other NATO countries, the theory will become more plausible.

    Then again, there could be many other words explanations

  • Putin openly speaks warmly about the Soviet Union. He demonizes the West as the aggressors, while building weapons for war and propagandizing the West. Russia supports both the Democrats and the Republicans here in the States for purposes of divide and conquer. Whatever he says is as trustworthy as from a used car salesman and probably worse.

    At least the Bishop here is more recognizing the propaganda here than declaring it the reality. Putin does talk a good game for public consumption by anti-Westerners. This is exacerbated by bad governments, which is also part of the point. Control both sides and demonize the West, while shifting East and finally destroying the Church.

    And that's the whole reason for this: It's not enough to have complete control and financial dominance. They want to permanently remove from memory our Lord Jesus Christ and the Roman Catholic Church. Without that understanding of their preternatural hatred and desire for revenge I believe you will not be able to understand what's happening here.

    Strange that someone who wanted to destroy the Catholic Church would ask the pope to comply with Fatima, and do the consecration (if in fact such a request was made).

    Your statement only works if taken in isolation, but if you consider the whole man then base Putin doesn't work.

    It's probable that from a Soviet-conspiracy perspective that the Putin-Vatican II connection is only meant the further confusion. They want to deligitimize priests from association with unnatural vice and the post-Vatican II scandals have accomplished this goal. The average person thinks of a particular sin when they hear Catholic priest. Fake cooperation over Fatima only serves as a smokescreen for the ongoing sins of Russia, who is the probable source (KGB/FSB), of all of the drugs, prostitution, terrorism, unnatural sɛҳuąƖ sins esp. for blackmail purposes, etc.

  • The Bolsheviks don't care which side wins- just as long at it is them that wins it. It's the west that is wiping the name of Christ off the map.-not Russia- at least  for now.
    I'm not fooled by Putin, he might be trying to reconstitute the Soviet Union- but the WEST IS ALREADY SOVIETIZED. The sins of Russia (judaic bolshevism) have been adopted by the west.  Russia seems to  be shaking them off. For now Putin appears to support Christianity (Russian orthodoxy), is anti-sodomite and anti transgender- by law.
    The Jєωιѕн Christ haters want war with Russia, particularly because of Fatima. It is to their(Bolshevik satanists) demise iif Russia stands and is consecrated. I think they believe this even more than we do.

  • It's the same team. There is no true separation between West and East at the very top. Biden, Putin, Francis and more, are working together for the same goal. Putin purportedly vocalized it himself: To rebuild the Temple.

    This is true. There are many levels to address this battle. Yet we still have to fight within what's given to  us  and protect lives and souls at a particular time in political history if given that window of opportunity.. Ultimately it is all pervasive evil controlling us but the chess board does open up moves to forward what is good within a particular situation and we need to take those prompts and go with it. Shrewd as serpents, gentle as doves

  • Putin openly speaks warmly about the Soviet Union. 

    That's to say the least. He compared Christianity to Communism on Russian State TV, here are his words as presented by an English-language article covering it: 

    "Maybe I am about to say something that some people will not like, but I will say what I think," he says.

    "Firstly, faith has always accompanied us. It strengthened when things were hard for our people's country. There have been harsh, godfighting years when clerics were destroyed and churches were ruined. But at the same time (Soviets) created a new religion. Indeed, communist ideology is very similar to Christianity."

    ....


    But Putin argues that like Christianity, communism preaches "freedom, brotherhood, equality." He called the Moral Code of the Builder of Communism, a pamphlet of guiding principles for all party members, a "primitive excerpt from the Bible."

    ...

    "Lenin was laid down in a mausoleum," Putin reminded his interviewer. "How does this differ to the remains of saints for the Orthodox or even for Christians in general?"

    ...

    "I am often told: 'Nowhere in the Christian world is there such a tradition.' How can that be? Go to Athos and see how there are remains of saints and here also there are the sacred remains of Sergius and Herman," he says.

    "So it seems that the authorities at the time did not invent anything new, but merely adopted under its own ideology something that humankind invented a long time ago."
