From Putin's Brain to War With Mexico

Sounds crazy, right?

Alexander Dugin is a Russian author and lecturer who for over thirty years has contributed immensely to the philosophical if not political beliefs held by Vladimir Putin. As James Verini writes for The New Yorker in the March 1, 2025 issue, “For decades, Alexander Dugin argued that Russia had a messianic mission, and that destroying an independent Ukraine was necessary to fulfilling it.”

Dugin is a prolific writer. He has written scores of books including his Foundations of Geopolitics that’s seen multiple publications, has been used in university courses, and reportedly is taught to Russian military personnel at the Academy of the General Staff. He is to say the least very influential in contemporary Russian geopolitical theory. He’s been called “Putin’s brain” and though that title is somewhat of an exaggeration, his writing as philosophy are decidedly confluent with Putin’s own.

The guiding philosophy proposed by Dugin is not only political but also pious. Dugin has for over three decades asserted that Russia is destined, quite literally destined he believes, to remold the world as necessary by conquest into a place he envisions that is diametrically opposite of that which he sees as the decadence of modern European and American democracies. After a car bomb likely meant for him killed his daughter Dugin advocated using nuclear weapons against Ukraine.

As Verini writes:

“Dugin assails the West and its values. He inveighs against democracy, secularism, individualism, civil society, multiculturalism, human rights, sexual openness, technology, scientific rationalism, and reason in general, which he rejects in favor of the mystical revelations of the Russian Orthodox Church.” (www.newyorker.com/the-weekend-essay)

As Putin now asserts also, Dugin has long held that Ukraine is “devoid of any universal meaning” and not a sovereign nation but a territory of the Russian “Holy Empire” which must again be part of Russia for Russia to fully achieve its destiny. According to Putin the world is experiencing, “a period of fundamental revolutionary transformation” with Russia as the vanguard freeing the rest of the world from the exploitation by Western elitist satanism.

Putin asserted his illegal annexation of Crimea in 2014 was rightfully reclaiming that which was taken from Russia in the Crimean War (1853 - 1856). But history records that conflict was precipitated by Russian aggression in occupying the Danubian principalities of Moldavia and Wallachia (modern Romania) ruled at that time by the Ottomans. Russia prior to the Crimean War claimed it justifiably sought to exert influence and control over Russian Orthodox people there. Russia lost the war to the allied forces of Ottoman Turkey, France, and Britain.

A defeat never forgotten nor wholly accepted.

So… In February of 2022 Putin invaded Ukraine upon the premises that Ukraine is not legitimate as an independent country as it was historically part of Russia, there are multitudes of Russian speaking people there who long to be back in the Russian sphere, that the Jew Zelensky and his government are Nazis, and Ukraine was threatening Russia, so, they asked for it… And he’s now supported by a US president (sic) who describes the conflict as a game of cards, calls President Zelensky of Ukraine a dictator, and parrots Putin that the war is Ukraine’s fault.

Again from Verini:

“(Putin gave a speech) in September 2022, celebrating the annexation of captured Ukrainian territories. For a speech meant to mark a victory, it was oddly victimized in tone. Putin didn’t dwell on the suffering of the thousands of Russian soldiers who had died for the cause of annexing Ukraine, nor did he touch on the suffering of the millions of Ukrainians whom he claimed to be saving from themselves. Instead, he focused on the centuries of Russian suffering at the hands of the West, which was “ready to cross every line to preserve the neocolonial system that allows it to live off the world, to plunder it thanks to the domination of the dollar and technology.” He decried the Western “overthrow of faith and traditional values,” which was “coming to resemble a ‘religion in reverse’—pure Satanism.” The invasion, then, was meant to save not just Ukraine, or Russia, but Christianity, and therefore all mankind.”

Sounds crazy, right?

Well… Riddle me this:

On August 12, 1521 after a 91 day siege of Tenochtitlán the conquistador Hernán Cortéz won the surrender of the indigenous Aztecs and claimed all their lands for Spain. Three hundred years later, Mexico won its independence from Spain in 1821. Fifteen years later, Texas won independence from Mexico in 1836. At that time Texas included lands that would later become parts of New Mexico, Colorado, Oklahoma, Kansas, and Wyoming.

Ten years later the ensuing debate in the US Congress about bringing Texas into the union centered around whether slavery would be legal and whether the annexation would lead to a war with Mexico, which it did. Alleged on less than wholly legitimate premises then President James K. Polk, intent on westward expansion for the United States, claimed American blood had been spilled by invading Mexican troops and in May 1846 the US Senate voted 40-2 to delcare war.

From Britannica:

“The war between the United States and Mexico (April 1846–February 1848) stemmed from the United States’ annexation of Texas in 1845, and from a dispute over whether Texas ended at the Nueces River (Mexican claim) or the Rio Grande (U.S. claim). The war resulted in the United States’ acquisition of more than 500,000 square miles (1,300,000 square km) of Mexican territory extending westward from the Rio Grande to the Pacific Ocean.” (www.britannica.com/event/Mexican-American-War)

The treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, signed on February 2, 1848, ended the war between the United States and Mexico. By its terms, Mexico ceded 55 percent of its territory, including the present-day states California, Nevada, Utah, New Mexico, most of Arizona and Colorado, and parts of Oklahoma, Kansas, and Wyoming.

The southwest US was once indisputably part of Mexico, there are multitudes of Spanish speaking people who’ve lived there for hundreds of years, there are millions of Spanish speaking people in that region who celebrate Cinco de Mayo, the current US administration are a bunch of Nazis and fascists led by a criminal don who has repeatedly threatened to invade Mexico, and in a provocatively bellicose action recently moved federal strike force troops to the border.

So… By the Putin doctrine (supported by Krasnov the criminal traitor) Mexico would be justified in taking back the lands ceded as a result of the Mexican/American War. According to the Putin/Krasnov doctrine, Mexico would be warranted in sending ground troops and tanks with air support as well as Chinese mercenaries into the former Mexican lands, take the areas by force if necessary, shoot rockets incessantly into cities that don’t surrender, bomb schools and hospitals and shopping centers and train stations, murder all men and boys of potential military service ages, rape thousands of women and girls, and kidnap all the children they find sending them to Mexico City to be indoctrinated into Mexican culture. And the US would be at fault.
