"Russian World" ideologist Dugin hints that Putin should be sacrificed for retreating from Kherson

On his Telegram channel, the well-known Russian philosopher and propagandist Alexander Dugin wrote about the surrender of Kherson and made Russian President Vladimir Putin responsible for the failure, hinting at his absolute power

In his reflections on autocracy, Dugin drew parallels with James Frazer's work The Golden Bough, which mentioned the King of the Rain, whose stomach was disemboweled by his fellow tribesmen because he could not protect them from drought.

The ideologist thinks as follows: in Russia there is an autocracy that has absolute power and has a sacred meaning, and it is this that must save the people at a critical moment. If this power does not cope with its mission, then it should be treated as it was done in many archaic societies with the Kings of the Rain, i.e. to kill. At the same time, Dugin completely removed the responsibility for the failure from General Surovikin, who, in his opinion, is only responsible for the technical side of the front.

Dugin said: “We give the Ruler absolute power, and he saves us all, the people, the state, people, citizens, at a critical moment. If he surrounds himself with crap or spits on social justice, it is unpleasant, but he would save us. And if he does not save us, then - the fate of the King of the Rain.

At the same time, the philosopher offers a way out. According to him, it is necessary to immediately move from a sovereign dictatorship to a commissar dictatorship, that is, to introduce an ideology. At the same time, he believes that no political technology will help in the current situation, since the authorities in Russia are no longer capable of anything.

“The last resource is ideology. The real one, not the fake one, which is trying to push the reality of the PA (presidential administration - Ed.) scared to death by the uprising. It's enough to spin: the Russian Idea. Only it,” Dugin asserts, adding at the same time that  there is not enough technical money in Russia to win the war.

The propagandist also mentioned nuclear weapons and the prospects for their use. Dugin believes that military failures of the Russian Federation may lead to nuclear Armageddon.

“This is not treason, this is a step towards Armageddon. The conditions of the West, which will win, this civilization of Satan, will never be acceptable to Moscow. Therefore, the tactical nuclear weapon and strategic nuclear weapon will remain. That is, the end,” the philosopher emphasized.
