We are Facing Total Chaos in its Purest Form

It's a great honor for me to participate in this discussion. I'm not a philosopher, and in a way I'm as ignorant about it as any ordinary poet. I'm kidding, of course. I'm going to share my observations. They are in line with the thoughts and ideas that Alexander Dugin has just formulated. Alexander Gel'evich, I have great respect for your works and for your daughter Daria's ideas.

Existential Justification of Russian Special Military Operation

I would like to build on the words of Andrei Korobov-Latyntsev, who considers total mobilization as a Jüngerian concept, and on the Jüngerian model itself, which is obvious and in a certain sense does not need any further deepening. Ernst Jünger is an extremely explicit thinker; he is very aphoristic. In his works, he expressed everything he wanted. He clearly said what he wanted to say, so even the comments about it are not of much interest. However, in Martin Heidegger's hundred-volume work there is one of the volumes that is a reprint of Jünger's work. It has Heidegger's notes in the margins. This is very interesting. Here we see Jüngerian thought integrated in the multidimensional and spiritual intellectual universe of Heidegger. And if we turn to Jünger's idea of total mobilization in a Heideggerian manner, then we get an existential theory of mobilization. Practically what is intended. It is worth exploring this in more detail.

Russian Historiosophy as an Ethical Justification of Being

Russian Historiosophy as an Ethical Justification of Being

Looking at its basic principles, our Russian philosophy is historiosophy. It is multidimensional. I think that the moral dimension is the most important one, which doesn't always get the attention it deserves. It has to be said that morality in the context of the Russian ethical tradition does not mean moralism, moralising, or showing off. Ethical questioning is very often confused with moralizing and preaching. So, the ethical is often overshadowed by the moral.
