Russian Patriots embraces the fact that Putin is taking back what he views as Russian lands and reestablishing the "Russian sphere," an imperial bloc on which the Soviet Union was based. — PolitiTweet.org
Richard Spencer @RichardBSpencer
In this moment, it's important to differentiate between Russian Patriots (who are willing to own the situation) and Russian shills (who simply spread disinformation and absurd Russian victimology). — PolitiTweet.org

One fascinating suggestion, which came out of yesterday’s Space, is that Russia’s carving out of Eastern Ukraine might free up Western Ukraine to join NATO. It would be a German-like division. History repeats. https://t.co/FbtFKfmFd8 — PolitiTweet.org

The remarkable thing about the Alt-Right in 2015-16 was that it supported Trump in explicit opposition to the GOP. I agree that the current “Dissident” Right operates more like a GOP PAC: “the quiet part out loud”… as opposed to a different message altogether. — PolitiTweet.org

@HoratiusAtGate @dutchrudderr @thewiretwo Again, it is in Russia‘s interest to promote “wokeness,” as Putin sees this as dividing the west. In other words, the American right loves Putin; the affection is not reciprocated. — PolitiTweet.org
Richard Spencer @RichardBSpencer
@HoratiusAtGate @thewiretwo I get it, but again, why be a fan of this man? — PolitiTweet.org
Richard Spencer @RichardBSpencer
@HoratiusAtGate @thewiretwo Sure. So according to you, Putin views Europe as the enemy. He has no interest in revitalizing the West; that’s contrary to his interests, in fact. — PolitiTweet.org
Richard Spencer @RichardBSpencer
@HoratiusAtGate @thewiretwo You're falling into a common trap of conservatives: vicarious nationalism for other countries and leaders that, at least relatively speaking, seem "based." The question is, does Putin want a renewal of the West—or does he want stupidity and division. That's the F/E distinction. — PolitiTweet.org
Richard Spencer @RichardBSpencer
@HoratiusAtGate @thewiretwo The demographics of Russia might surprise you, particularly Central Asians in Moscow. Secondly, Putin promoted a renewed migrant crisis in Central Europe. https://t.co/Fag0XPAy0j — PolitiTweet.org

@HoratiusAtGate I told you. That said, Tucker’s Putin love is probably equally stupid. — PolitiTweet.org

For what it’s worth, Putin actually did call Americans “racist.” https://t.co/HJx5M2Ox7M — PolitiTweet.org

@JohnSte65242351 I unfortunately think every country will fall victim to the mind virus, but White Christian countries most intensely. — PolitiTweet.org
Richard Spencer @RichardBSpencer
Over the past five years, the Kremlin’s contributions to discourse on the Right in America have been to encourage idiocy, division, and conspiracy. Putin does not want to spread “traditionalism” or whatever. Chaos and stupidity in the West better suit his objectives. — PolitiTweet.org
Richard Spencer @RichardBSpencer
It certainly wouldn’t cost Moscow much to buy the services of various anonymous eCelebs … or nothing at all, as such people are eminently suggestible. Who knows? The important thing is, for my purposes, they can be used as a “reverse compass” for good analysis. — PolitiTweet.org
Richard Spencer @RichardBSpencer
For a while, the “dissident” sphere has widely claimed that a war over Ukraine isn’t happening: “wag the dog,” “only Washington wants a war,” etc. Perhaps this came from a base urge to contradict the MSM or offer “esoteric” takes … perhaps some are actual Russian shills. — PolitiTweet.org
Richard Spencer @RichardBSpencer
25 years ago, Putin might have been somewhat open to ending the East/West divide—even countenancing expanding NATO to Russia. But he seems to associate the advancement of the West and Europe with the economic and humanitarian disaster of the 1990s (again, understandable). — PolitiTweet.org
Richard Spencer @RichardBSpencer
Putin’s worldview and personality are a central cause of this tragedy. Simply blaming America for everything is childish. Putin has no vision of a common European culture, and he views the West through a conspiratorial lens (understandable, to a degree) and seeks to weaken it. — PolitiTweet.org
Richard Spencer @RichardBSpencer
I thus see that latest developments as a tragedy. There will be less communication with the Russian world; it will be increasingly demonized; and a conception of a broader European culture, which includes Russia, will be set back decades. — PolitiTweet.org
Richard Spencer @RichardBSpencer
Hunkering down makes things more stable, and, again, Washington is simply not willing to go to war—that is, send in ground troops—over the Ukraine Question. — PolitiTweet.org
Richard Spencer @RichardBSpencer
In order to shore up power, Putin is eager for a East/West division. The sanctions from the West might be painful, but he’s more than willing to tolerate them. The East/West division secures his power and delineates the Russian sphere. — PolitiTweet.org
Richard Spencer @RichardBSpencer
Putin has become somewhat of a hero to conservatives, much like Orban: the tough, “un-woke” badass leader. Back in 2016, I viewed this, optimistically, as uniting the White world. I no longer view it this way. — PolitiTweet.org
Richard Spencer @RichardBSpencer
It is completely understandable that Putin views NATO expansion as aggressive. It is. Ukraine (whose membership is still a potentiality) is simply a “no go,” a “hard nyet,” as it were. Again, this means more to Putin than expansion means to Washington. — PolitiTweet.org
Richard Spencer @RichardBSpencer
The Biden admin has whispered sweet nothings about Ukraine’s “sovereign right to choose its own alliances” etc. The reality is that military control over Europe, particularly heartland Europe, is a long-term U.S. strategy. — PolitiTweet.org
Richard Spencer @RichardBSpencer
Putin might have assumed that Nord Stream (the offshore gas pipelines) would be a wedge that divides NATO: Europe would choose energy over America. That didn’t happen. Germany just rejected Nord Stream 2, and the dividing lines are now much clearer. — PolitiTweet.org
Richard Spencer @RichardBSpencer
In other words, if Putin is willing to suffer through a Cold War-style East/West divide, get kicked off SWIFT, etc., then Biden effectively gave him the “green light” to go in. — PolitiTweet.org
