Not A Coup, Not A Mutiny, But Court Politics

Wagner Group was said to have attempted a coup against the Kremlin this past week, ending yesterday. It wasn't anywhere near what was expected.

Instead, what we got was aggressive negotiations between the sovereign and his courtiers.

This would be confirmed:

Former supporter of Prigozhin about alleged agreement between Prigozhin and Russian authorities:

"Now it's finally allowed to say the three things he's been promised. 1. Shoigu's resignation. 2. Amnesty for "musicians" [Wagner mercenaries]. 3. The possibility to return to… pic.twitter.com/FMPiq1vUR1

But one thing for certain was that the most Globohomo-friendly result was not on the table.

The only thing that would have resulted from Putin being removed from power is that someone just like him, but far more hardcore, would move in and the war would escalate greatly as a result. A successful coup would only have made things worse.

Instead, what we have here is the use of a mutiny against the Ministry of Defense to disguise the fact that Lukashenko played the cutout between Putin and Prizgoshin to resolve an internal political dispute between Kremlin factions. The Neo-Tsar used it to get rid of a bothersome courtier who wasn't delivering the goods. Wagner is the only successful element on the ground for Russia, and Putin isn't stupid so he made the obvious move to rearrange the court to deliver what he wants.

The consequence is that the Russian military will become more aggressive, not less, and strategic objectives will be amended to gut Ukraine post-war by guaranteeing its inability to support itself by seizing its arable land (agriculture) and industrial assets (sea access, industrial plants) which is symbolized by taking Odessa. Under-handed policies of using Russian minorities abroad to foment unrest in vulnerable states will also escalate (look out Moldova), forcing Globohomo to divert resources away to deal with them (because if they don't, the unrest will be escalated).

Putin now relies on Wagner for his power. That's dangerous, and Putin is playing a dangerous game; past Russian dynasties fell due to court power miscalculations like this as the Romanovs found out the hard way. Expect the war to escalate once this has shaken out, but make no mistake this is trading short-term strength for long-term brittleness; the collapse of the Russian Federation was not prevented today, but rather accelerated and as the second-order effects manifest that will become obvious.

Now let's see if the similar political stability issues in China take a similar turn.

Narrative Warfare: Show The Receipts And Win The Narrative

Ex-Stratfor man Peter Zeihan addressed a pair of viewer questions about Putin and Russia this past week.

This is what the pro-Russian side avoids like the plague, including dissidents like Vox Day.

Remember Peter's business. He advises Western governments and corporations on geopolitics, using his former Stratfor links to supplement what his staff can acquire in the open, so he talks to Fellow Travlers in Globohomo- not to enemies and rubes. Furthermore, his continued business requires him to be precise and accurate. He has to tell the truth to get paid.

This means that he has to cite his sources and provide recepits, which he does in his public-facing publications and refers to in public-facing video and audio media like this, which the curious and skeptical can look up for themselves to see what he's seeing. This leads to independent confirmation of his claims.

The pro-Russian folks cannot refute these claims. They know that each and every one of them is true, correct, and verified time and again as such.

The only hope that both Russia and China--the rival Imperial powers to Globohomo--have is relently psychological operations, specifically demoralization operations, using dissidents and the disenfranced as Useful Idiots to push that Narrative Warfare angle. This includes De-Dollarization and Western Collapse.

Long before Globohomo collapses, both China and Russia will shatter and fall. They already are far shakier than the West, with currencies that no one wants, and only their shills and their own propaganda outlets are serious about the West losing hegemony. Independent outlets are not pushing this; they know it's bullshit, even if they would otherwise be sympathetic.

The tell? They do not do what Zeihan (and others like Lei of Lei's Real Talk) do: SHOW RECEIPTS. You are expected to take their word for it OR ELSE, and this is most blatant with the CCP Shillsphere.

Remember the pattern: Each Imperial power lies about themselves and tells the truth about their enemies. The lies about themselves that China and Russia push is that they are better shape than Globohomo; they are not- both are far, far worse across the board and it's getting harder to hide it. The truth is that the West is weak and in decline; that is true, but the West is still able and (given certain internal conditions) willing to arrest and reverse that decline- but those conditions will not come. Neither of the rivals can do that.

What remains the case is that it does not matter if Russia wins in Ukraine. They have already lost the peace; Russia is a dead empire walking, and China is soon to follow.

Empire falls. First in the East. Then in the West.

Narrative Warfare: When The Corporation Proclaims It Is All For Child Rape, Trafficking, And Sacrifice

An unexpected this happened this past week. Alexensual explains.

Professional gamers are not known for being hardcore political ideologues, especially those who play Normie-facting games like the Call of Duty franchise.

For all intents and purposes, we're looking at a Normie saying Normie things to a corporation converged by the Social Justice Warrior Death Cult and in thrall to Blackrock and the DEI and ESG regime.

As you are now aware, they use homosexuality as a cultural weapon against a targetted population. They do this to cloak--however poorly--their aim to seize the children of that population and render them up as sacrifices to their demonic masters, who are in turn in thrall to Empire- and ultimately to The Enemy.

All Nickmercs said was "Leave those kids alone".

Activision-Blizzard said "No, we will not. We will actively prey upon those children and violate them until they either turn into one of us or they are slain on the sacrificial altar to our gods."

Activision-Blizzard is PRO-CHILD RAPE, TRAFFICKING, AND SACRIFICE.

They said it by their deeds. The only way it could be more brick-to-face obvious is if they said exactly what I put immediately above.

This is not about profit--their shareholders are pissed--or about ethics. This is a demonic cult, engaged in religious warfare against a hated enemy- YOU AND YOURS!

You can no longer claim ignorance. You continue to use their services and products at direct peril to your souls. They are Thralls of Empire, and they are coming for your children. The least you can do is to cease giving them your time, your attention, and especially your money- and to pressure others to do the same. There are clean alternatives to everything they have. Use them.

Empire will fall.

Only A Network Can Destroy A Network

First Auron MacIntyre said it openly. Now others are doing so.

leftists reward the fringe elements of their coalition. the right punishes theirs.

This is the final, inevitable, step to take when resorting to "Fork and Replace".

It is not enough to fork and replace Thrall-captured institutions because the Thralls will use the power that they have to seize the replacements. Therefore dissidents across the West--because the Thralls have patronage networks that cross international lines, as it is a global network--must make the ultimate Fork And Replace move: to fork off their own patronage networks and use them to seize power and replace the Thralls.

Everything I posted previously about internationalizing dissident nationalist efforts as the route to victory is now brought into sharp focus because the practical end is as obvious as a brick to the face.

Yes, some of you dissidents are doing good work. Some of you are proving to be effective in your own spheres, but your connections are tenuous and not just due to the combination of opportunistic grifters (e.g. Ethan Ralph) and Imperial assets (can't really call them agents; agents run assets) like Baked Alaska mudding the waters for their own benefit.

Operating on your own, in your own spheres, more or less isolated means that you can--and you will--be picked off one by one as the Thralls of Empire can mass their superior numbers to swamp you in a literal and metaphorical Zerg Rush that burns through what defenses you have before you can do jack shit to stop them.

Operating as a network, as a team, as a unit you can not only mount an effective resistance to the Thralls of Empire where you are but wherever they are- and, remember, there are three competing cliques of Empire's Thralls AND ALL OF THEM MUST GO!

Dissident discourse must shift towards creating and linking up patronage networks into a parallel international network immediately, with the objective and seizing and holding power from the Thralls permanently.
