Alexander Dugin, a key intellectual figure in contemporary Russian ideology, expounds on a vision of Russia's messianic role during a cultural festival amidst the ongoing war with Ukraine. In his lecture, he contrasts the collective spiritual identity of Russia with the individualism of liberalism, which he condemns as morally corrupt. Through his writings, Dugin positions Russia as the last bastion of deeper historical and cultural values, intertwining the nation's destiny with the rejection of a liberal worldview. His ideas reflect a broader narrative that justifies the Russian invasion and the suppression of independent identities like Ukraine's.
Dugin defines liberalism as the false premise that an individual is a detached, selfish being, and he argues such people, if they exist, ought not to be.
At a cultural festival, Dugin claimed that Russia is the last true subject of history, linking its identity to a deep, spiritual center found in the past.
