‘Muricans, I was talkin’ bout y’all behind yer backs. But it was all true, so there’s that. Here follows a column I wrote that originally ran at Geopolitika this week.
A FEW THINGS ABOUT AMERICA AND AMERICANS

USA
Perrin Lovett
It’s a strange place, let’s not kid ourselves. Physically, it’s a stunningly beautiful and diverse landscape, much like Russia. Socially, and cohesively, it used to be nice. Politically, it’s … what’s worse than a burning, radioactive trainwreck? Anyway, the United States is full of surprises and built atop a surprising history. This short essay about the land where I grew up was partly inspired by a few articles at Geopolitika over the past few months, particularly those of my friends, Walt Garlington and Leonid Savin, and the esteemed Professor Alexander Dugin. I hesitated to finish and submit this piece because it kind of felt like I was beating up on my own people. But as the man once said, “It is what it is.”
Not too long ago, Professor Dugin correctly chided the Western world and its conservative factions for believing in and promoting the fallacy of “Judeo-Christianity.” He is right that the West is not, and was never supposed to be Judeo-Christian, the very idea of which is a non sequitur. However, we certainly have many self-proclaimed Judeo-Christians in the West. Perhaps nowhere is this aberration more prevalent than in the United States where it also goes by the name of “Christian”-Zionism. I’d like to address and further condemn this phenomenon through a few examples and with a little history. This will also involve Freemasonry and related matters.
The United States, which I’m also cautiously referring to, synonymously, as America, was founded in large part by Protestants and Freemasons. I’m also largely referring to the founding of the United States of America, the federated country created by the Constitution of 1787 over and above the earlier colonial establishment. Walt Garlington, who, by the way, authors some of the most soul-stirring poetry of any post-modern American, Southern man, wrote an excellent treatise on the differences between Saint Vladimir of Russia and America’s founding general and first Constitutional president George Washington. In it, Walt notes that Washington was a practicing Freemason. I’m going to demonstrate, with pictures, the depth of his devotion to the club or, rather, their reciprocation towards him and his legacy.
I also note that, just as scoundrels of the West love to hide behind children, faux patriotism, and the Bible, many of them of the American variety also find refuge by invoking Washington as a kind of justification for whatever lunacy they’re peddling at the moment. Vivek Ramaswamy, a pseudo-American, Soros-esque businessman of some sort, is or was seeking the Republican nomination for President. (Practical politics in America being dead and gone—ask President Vladimir Putin or Medinsky and Chubaryan’s new high school history book—I don’t keep close track of the sideshow anymore.) Speaking (highly) of Israel’s war of genocide against Palestine, Ramaswamy recently told a group of Republican Zionists, “I would love nothing more than for the IDF to put the heads of the top 100 Hamas leaders on stakes and line them up on the Israel-Gaza border as a sign that October 7, 2023 will never happen again.” He then argued it is what George Washington would do. Either it wasn’t reported, or else he didn’t say what he thought Washington would make of the Nakba, the U.S.S. Liberty, or related matters. Then again, it’s a circus and he’s merely a clown. But the spirit of so many false beliefs has a strong grip on the greater circus audience.
Both Freemasonry and “Christian”-Zionism were on combined display late last year in Washington, D.C. A host of American Judeo-Christians pretended the Monument to George Washington was Jerusalem’s Wailing Wall. This spectacle, as bizarre as it looked, was part of the unquestioning allegiance to the modern Israeli state and the play-pretend understanding of eschatology held by many Americans. Leonid Savin recently wrote, very well, of this allegiance, of its origins and modern implications.
