Father and Daughter, via Telegram

Daría Dugina, the daughter of Alexandr Dugin, was killed today in Moscow. It was a bomb in the car. His father was supposed to ride with her but took another vehicle. This is a pretty sedate piece from TASS.

A Toyota Land Cruiser Prado car exploded near the village of Bolshiye Vyazemy in the Moscow region, as a result, the driver died, law enforcement agencies told us.

According to some media reports, the daughter of a well-known public figure Alexander Dugin, Daria, died as a result of the explosion.

First, it’s important to understand this is not just the daughter of a political scientist and philosopher. She, like her father, was part of the Russian nationalist far right. They both built the backbone of the nationalist Eurasian philosophy that Vladimir Putin is following.

He came up with a view of politics where democracy and freedom are not universal values but rather imposed by the west. He believes Russia needs strong men and that the future world is not just multipolar but undemocratic.

His work has deeply influenced the western far right. People like Steve Bannon are not just students of Dugin. They believe Democracy is anathema to the future.

Then there are the internal politics. Many nationalists were suppressed while building a far-right nationalist movement that supported the state. This is a place where Dugin played a role. After all, he is part of Vladimir Putin’s circle.

So he is at the core of the nationalist right. His philosophy is behind the Ukraine war. It’s also part of the threats to the west. So how is the far right reacting? Because they know this is meant as a signal to both Putin and those in his circle.

Soon after the news broke, Vladimir Soloviev wrote this on Telegram. For context, his tv and radio programs are piped into the homes of Russians. He is one of the chief propagandists in the Federation.

I do not believe. I just can’t believe it until now. One of the brightest figures of our crazy time with you.

Farewell, Darya Alexandrovna, we’ll meet on the other side of the mirror glass…

Realized that her father prepared her for a political role within the Federation. She was to carry his vision into the future. Soloviev is part of the nationalist faction that favors the war.

These are not just pretended feelings.

Moscow Calling put it this way:

In the Moscow region, the car of the daughter of Alexander Dugin was blown up.

According to preliminary data, the explosion occurred while the car was moving. The media report that it was Dugina who was driving and she died.

Dugin is Putin’s propaganda consultant (at the level of Solovyov, Skabeeva, etc.), only higher, and one of the ideologists of the Russkiy Mir.

Whether there was an attempt on his life, and the daughter simply took his car, or it was she who was the target of the assassination — we will hardly know …

He has some questions, including who was the target. I will speculate it was both father and daughter. But he is also very clear on the role of Alexander within the regime.

It’s more than just propaganda. It’s ideology, but he understands how critical this is. He is also clear. Dugin is one of the architects of the current version of the Russian world. This was more a matter of fact. Perhaps Soloviev knows the Dugins, and this blogger does not.

Let me close this with a post from a liberal channel. It will show some of the divisions within Russia. Alexander created some, and his ideology which is popular with people like Steve Bannon and Alex Jones.

Dugin, do you think that your speeches, which nourished the foundation of this schizofascism, will just pass by?

God, what we love most is their cleanliness.

Solovyov, Simonyan, Skabeev and others like them. And gray cardinals too.

Do you really think that you can become the architects of Nazism and still live a safe and well-fed life?

Do you really think that your words will not resonate with you?

Retribution. It is sweet to us. But it never gets boring.

BELL XXI

What we have is a high-level political assassination. Chances are they are going to blame Ukraine. However, this reeks far more of an internal hit. I have been predicting unrest. This may be the beginning.

As is, there is a line of people who are very unhappy with how the war has gone. Given the Dugins wrote the ideological basis for it, they are targets. This is a message.

I will go out on a limb and say I suspect at least a faction within the FSB. The services are not that unified at this point. That this happened in Moscow is also very significant. It is a clear signal that whoever was behind this is not stopping.

This is a political earthquake. How far this will go is a good question. His ideology has also infected American politics and is part of the active measures against the west. In a way, he is reaping the rewards of a few decades of hate and fascism.
