A.R. Dyukov, known on Telegram under the modest nickname “Historian Dyukov,” decided to continue his denunciations of Vladimir Lenin and came up with the following: “I can’t help once again admiring Lenin’s genius. On February 26, 1921, when the country was already in a deep economic disaster and people were supposedly dying of hunger: ‘The […]

Trump’s might-makes-right lawlessness will be his downfall. If we’re not careful, it will be America’s as well. Trump’s domestic and foreign policies — ranging from his attempted coup against the United States in January 2021, to his ICE and Border Patrol excesses (including murders in Minnesota), to his incursion into Venezuela and abduction of its […]

Vladimir Ilyich Lenin’s birthday is a good opportunity to remember what this name means to us, modern residents of Russia. Today, as a matter of principle, I will not discuss the lofty matters of philosophy and political analysis. Lenin was not only a politician, but also a brilliant philosopher, sociologist, economist, historian, and, of course, […]

The Russian Empire and the United States signed the treaty on March 18 (30), 1867, in Washington. The United States received the entire Alaska Peninsula, the Alexander and Kodiak archipelagos, the Aleutian Islands, and several islands in the Bering Sea. The United States paid $7.2 million in gold for all these territories! There’s a stereotype […]

The media have opened the Overton window, starting to discuss the feasibility of switching to a 12-hour workday. Since current politicians are not eager to embrace the new topic against the backdrop of Dmitry Medvedev’s recent proposal to reduce the working day to 4 hours, they suggest that veteran capitalist workers evaluate the possible innovation. […]

Recently, the White House eased sanctions against Belarus. On March 26, the US Treasury issued a general license for operations with “Belinvestbank”, lifted sanctions against the Belarusian Ministry of Finance and the “Development Bank”, as well as the major state corporations “Belaruskali” and “Agroazot”. Our experts habitually cheered that “Trump backed down and changed course”, […]

Or the question of whether the historian’s main virtue is skepticism?! I’ve written many times about Count Nesselrode and the caricatural image he left in history. And all based on the testimonies of contemporaries. They always spoke the truth and were extremely objective, of course. Who would doubt them?! It wasn’t just the chancellor who […]

Our subject of Russian history is the state-forming people and the political nation. The Russian people exist as a political nation, and it is precisely due to the characteristics of their national principles that they have always been able to rally people of other ethnic identities around themselves. For example, in Alaska, the Aleuts always […]

Russia, not the Czech Republic or other Slavic countries, has been and remains a bastion of Slavicism. It’s the fifth year of Russia’s war against the West, which for the first time in history has fully united. It was only due to our “Europeanism syndrome” (according to Danilevsky) that the West was able to use […]

The UN adopted a resolution condemning Iran’s attacks on its neighbors — and rejected a Russian draft (the US and Latvia voted against it). The UN Security Council adopted a resolution calling on Iran to stop attacks on Arab countries. The document states that the UN “strongly condemns the blatant attacks by the Islamic Republic […]
