MSM is telling us that Putin and Russia are dangerous. They are attacking Europe. They are attacking the U.S. They are attacking the West. Today, Putin talked about the importance of solid support in the sphere of morals, ethics, and values which is increasing dramatically in the modern fragile world.

In fact, values are a unique product of the cultural and historical development of any nation. The mutual interlacing of nations definitely enriches them, openness expands their horizons and allows them to take a fresh look at their own traditions, he said.

What kind of a dangerous world leader is talking like this?

MSM has lost all credibility. Russia`s Putin is the MORAL leader of the world, and it`s a shame to see the U.S falling down from the top of that list. Putin is a conservative right-wing capitalist, and he does all he can to get rid of everything that has to do with the Bolsheviks that almost destroyed Russia.

Furthermore, he said the process must be organic, and it can never be rapid. Any alien elements will be rejected anyway, possibly bluntly.

Any attempts to force one`s values on others with an uncertain and unpredictable outcome can only further complicate a dramatic situation and usually produce the opposite reaction and an opposite from the intended result.

I assume he is talking about the EU that is attacking Poland. They try to force them to change their own rules. Is Poland the next country to leave the EU?

At the same time, the social and cultural shocks that are taking place in the United States and Western Europe are none of our business; WE ARE KEEPING OUT OF THIS, Putin said.

Some people in the West believe that an aggressive elimination of the entire pages from their own history, «reverse discrimination» against the majority in the interests of a minority, and the demand to give up the traditional notions of mother, father, family, and even gender, they believe that all of these are the mileposts on the path towards social renewal.

Putin’s said that they have a right to do this, but Russia is keeping out of this. We will also like to ask them to keep out of our business as well.

We have a different viewpoint, at least the overwhelming majority of Russian society. We believe that we must rely on our own spiritual values, our historical tradition, and the culture of our multiethnic nation.

The advocates of so-called «social progress» believe they are introducing humanity to some kind of a new and better consciousness.

The only thing that I want to say now is that their prescriptions are not new at all. It may come as a surprise to some people, but Russia has been there already.

After the 1917 revolution, the Bolsheviks, relying on the dogmas of Marx and Engels, also said that they would change existing ways and customs and not just political and economic ones, but the very notion of human morality and the foundations of a healthy society.

The destruction of age-old values, religion, and relations between people up to and including the total rejection of family (we had that too), encouragement to inform on loves ones, all this was proclaimed progress and, by the way, was widely supported around the world back then and was quite fashionable, same as today.

Putin also said that the Bolsheviks were absolutely intolerant of opinions other than theirs. This, I believe, should call to mind some of what we are witnessing now.

Looking at what is happening in a number of Western countries, we are amazed to see the domestic practices, which we, fortunately, have left, I hope, in the distant past.

The fight for equality and against discrimination has turned into aggressive dogmatism bordering on absurdity, when the works of the great authors of the past, such as Shakespeare, are no longer taught at schools or universities because their ideas are believed to be backward.

The classics are declared backward and ignorant of the importance of gender or race. In Hollywood, memos are distributed about proper storytelling and how many characters of what color or gender should be in a movie.

THIS IS EVEN WORSE THAN THE AGITPROP DEPARTMENT OF THE CENTRAL COMMITTEE OF THE COMMUNIST PARTY OF THE SOVIET UNION!

Countering acts of racism is a necessary and noble cause, but the new «cancel culture» has turned it into «reverse discrimination» that is, reverse racism.

The obsessive emphasis on race is further dividing people when the real fighters for civil rights dreamed precisely about erasing differences and refusing to divide people by skin color,

I specifically asked my colleagues to find the following quote from Martin Luther King:

«I HAVE A DREAM THAT MY FOUR LITTLE CHILDREN WILL ONE DAY LIVE IN A NATION WHERE THEY WILL NOT BE JUDGED BY THE COLOUR OF THEIR SKIN BUT BY THEIR CHARACTER.»

This is the true value. However, things are turning out differently there.

By the way, Putin said, the absolute majority of Russian people do not think that the color of a person`s skin or their gender is an important matter. Each of us is a human being. This is what matters.

In a number of Western countries, the debate over men`s and women’s rights has turned into a perfect phantasmagoria. Look, beware of going where the Bolsheviks once planned to go. Not only communalizing chickens but also communalizing women. One more step and you will be there.

Zealots of these new approaches even go so far as to want to abolish these concepts altogether. Anyone who dares mention that men and women actually exist, which is a biological fact, risks being ostracised.

«Parent number one» and «parent number two,» «birthing parent» instead of «mother,» and «human milk» replacing «breastmilk» because it might upset the people who are unsure about their own gender.

This is nothing new; in the 1920s, the so-called Soviet Kulturtraegers also invented some newspeak believing they were creating a new consciousness and changing values that way.

As I have already said, they made such a mess it still makes one shudder at times.

Not to mention some truly monstrous things when children are taught from an early age that a boy can easily become a girl and vice versa. That is, the teachers actually impose on them a choice we all supposedly have.

They do so while shutting the parents out of the process and forcing the child to make decisions that can upend their entire life. They do not even bother to consult with child psychologists. Is a child at this age even capable of making a decision of this kind?

Calling a spade a spade, this verge on a crime against humanity, and it is being done in the name and under the banner of progress.

Well, Putin said, if someone likes this, let them do it.

I have already mentioned that, in shaping our approaches, we will be guided by a healthy CONSERVATIVISM.

That was a few years ago when passions in the international arena were not yet running as high as they are now, although, of course, we can say that clouds were gathering even then.

Now, when the world is going through a structural disruption, the importance of reasonable CONSERVATIVISM as the foundation for a political course has skyrocketed, precisely because of the multiplying risks and dangers, and the fragility of the reality around us.

This conservative approach is not about ignorant traditionalism, a fear of change, or a restraining game, much less about withdrawing into our own shells.

It is primarily about reliance on a time-tested tradition, the preservation and growth of the population, a realistic assessment of oneself and others, a precise alignment of priorities, a correlation of necessity and possibility, a prudent formulation of goals, and a fundamental rejection of extremism as a method.

In the impending period of global reconstruction, which may take quite long, with its final design being uncertain, moderate conservativism is the most reasonable line of conduct, as far as I see it, Putin said.

It will inevitably change at some point, but so far, do no harm the guiding principle in medicine, seems to be the most rational one. Noli nocere, as they say.

Again, for us in Russia, these are not some speculative postulates, but lessons from our difficult and sometimes tragic history.

The cost of ill-conceived social experiments is sometimes beyond estimation. Such actions can destroy not only the material but also the spiritual foundations of human existence.

Leaving behind moral wreckage where nothing can be built to replace it for a long time.
