Efforts to Adapt

For at least a little while longer, I exist in a literal swamp. The area being graced with high temperatures, surrounded and permeated by water, and with ample living and decomposing plant matter, it is little wonder that legions of snails also make their home here with me. I’m not complaining as I find these small gastropods among the more pleasant residents of my marshland. 

A world away, President Xi Jinping of China just released an update on his country’s path forward into the future. The reader may find this statement in the Qiushi Journal. Xi continued his approach of reconsidering Marxism as the founding ideology of the CPC while reinforcing and embracing traditional Chinese culture and heritage. All of this, he says, is fundamental in breaking new ground as the 21st century unfolds.

Xi stressed that on the new journey in the new era, we must uphold fundamental principles and break new ground, focus on the study, publicity and implementation of the Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era, make efforts to deepen systematic and theoretical research and interpretation, and strive to render the study and publicity more targeted and effective, so as to make the Party’s innovative theories more popular among the people. We must adhere to integrating the basic tenets of Marxism with China’s specific realities and fine traditional culture, proceed from China’s realities, carry forward Chinese cultural traditions, build a solid academic foundation, conduct in-depth research on major issues in our great efforts to build a strong country and achieve national rejuvenation on all fronts through Chinese modernization, accelerate the development of an independent knowledge system in Chinese philosophy and social sciences and nurture high-caliber theoretical talent, so as to make greater contributions to adapting Marxism to the Chinese context and the needs of the times.

“Socialism with Chinese Characteristics” is a hallmark of Xi-ism, a refinement of the continuously altered “communist” system which has seen China blossom from a forgotten backwater into the world’s largest and most dynamic economy, all while maintaining strict Chinese identity in a world gone mad with generic homogenization. For the FOX “News” watchers and other illiterate morons, no, I’m not pushing any particular ism. Where and when I exist, all isms are essentially dead and meaningless. And it’s not about me anyway. Instead, I’m merely observing what has been proven to work in reality. Xiism is as different from Dengism as Dengism was from Maoism and Maoism was from Leninism or theoretical Marxism. What Xi is driving at here, building on his pre-existing successes, is a form of the Chinese enactment of Professor Dugin’s Fourth Political Theory. 

As Dugin’s theory is universally applicable, it might be interesting to see if other nations or societies might also benefit from something akin to China’s process of blending tradition with innovation. As my audience is largely split between fading America and the soaring multipolar world, centered in my home away from hell, Russia, I thought it appropriate to briefly look at those two different civilizational states (and, yes, I’m being most charitable concerning America and civilization). 

Russia, it turns out, is about as far along the road as China, if not further along. In fact, Beijing’s proposal to modernize China’s philosophical and social sciences in keeping with Chinese tradition looks quite similar to Dugin’s in-progress work based out of RSUH. In virtually all areas Russia and China take the lead among the BRICS+ alliance in moving past the satanic world disorder foisted on mankind by the West. 

America on the other hand is a failed nation within a dying country trapped by its own foreign-controlled collapsing empire. While it is possible that real Americans might be able to return to their roots, so to speak, while forging a new and better future for themselves and any children they might have, whether they want to do so remains to be seen. Such a transition would require them to rediscover who they are, where they came from, what has happened to Western civilization over the past five hundred years, and who led them astray. This would require honest thinking, a skill Americans typically shun in the increasingly rare cases where it is a possibility. Rather, it would appear that most Americans, even those vaguely aware that something is wrong, prefer wishful and facetious thinking, denial, obesity, and voting in fake elections for a never-ending assortment of homosexuals, retards, usury-mongers, and bloodthirsty lunatics, all of whom hate Americans with a raging passion gifted to them by their father, the fallen lord of this world. Regardless of how bad things get, in the end, some Americans will survive and they will rebuild. There’s a small glimmer of hope in their future if they’re willing to fight for it. 

I have no real idea (nor much concern) how many Americans can or will fight, or even attempt to understand. My snails inspire more confidence. But I take solace in knowing my friends in Lebanon, Brazil, South Africa, China, and Russia (у вас есть место еще для одного!) not only know but are deep into the processes of betterment, prosperity, and peaceable happiness. That’s a miracle in and of itself!

Deo vindice.
