“After all, we are Rome and they are Carthage” – Alexander Dugin
Soros’ testament
On February 16, 2023, George Soros, one of the chief ideologists and practitioners of globalism, unipolarity and the preservation of Western hegemony at all costs, gave a speech in Germany at the Munich Security Conference that can be called a landmark. The 93-year-old Soros summarizes the situation in which he found himself at the end of his life, entirely devoted to the struggle of the “open society” against its enemies, the “closed societies”, according to the precepts of his teacher Karl Popper. If Hayek and Popper are the Marx and Engels of liberal globalism, Popper is its Lenin. Soros may look extravagant at times, but on the whole he openly articulates what will then become the main trends in world politics. His opinion is much more important than Biden’s inarticulate babble or Obama’s demagoguery. All liberals and globalists end up doing exactly what Soros says. He is the master-mind of EU, MI6, the CIA, the CFR, the Trilateral Commission, Macron, Scholz, Berbock, Saakashvili, Zelenski, Sandu, Pashinyan, and just about everyone who stands for the West, liberal values, the Postmodern and so-called “progressism” in one way or another. Soros is important. And this speech is his message to the “Invisible Assembly” of the world, that is an admonition to all the endless agents of the globalism, both sleeping and awakened.
Soros begins by saying that the situation in the world is critical. In it he immediately identifies two main factors:
– the clash of two types of government (“open society” vs. “closed society”) and
– climate change.
The climate (we will talk about it later) Soros evoked in the first part and at the end of his speech, but the clash of two types of government, in fact the two “camps”, the supporters of a unipolar world (as Schwab, Biden, the Euro-bureaucracy and their regional satellites, like the Zelensky terrorist regime) and the supporters of a multi-polar world occupy the main part of it. Let us examine Soros’ theses in order.
Open and closed societies: fundamental definitions
First of all Soros provides definitions of “open” and “closed” societies. In the open societies the State protects the freedom of the individual. In the closed ones, the individual serves the interests of the State. In theory, this corresponds to the opposition of Western liberal democracy and traditional society (whatever that may be). Moreover, in the field of International Relations (IR) this corresponds exactly to the polemic between liberals in IR and realists in IR.
At the level of geopolitics, we have to the opposition between the “civilization of the Sea” and the “civilization of the Land”. The civilization of the Sea is a commercial society, oligarchy, capitalism, materialism, technical development, and the ideal of selfish carnal pleasure. It is liberal democracy, the construction of politics from below, and the destruction of all traditional values – religion, Ыtate, estates, family, morality. The symbol of such a civilization is the ancient Phoenician Carthage, the pole of a huge colonial robber slave empire, with the worship of the Golden Calf, the bloody cults of Moloch, the sacrifice of babies. Carthage is an “open society».
It was opposed by Rome, the civilization of the Land, a society based on honor, loyalty, sacred traditions, heroism of service and hierarchy, valor and continuity to the ancient generations. The Romans worshipped the luminous paternal gods of Heaven and squeamishly rejected the bloody, chthonic cults of sea pirates and merchants. This could be seen as a prototype of “closed societies,” faithful to roots and origins.
Soros is the living (so far) embodiment of liberalism, Atlanticism, globalism and thalassocracy (“power through the Sea”). In the battle Carthage versus Rome he is unequivocally on the side of Carthage. His formula, symmetrical to the saying of the Roman senator Cato the Elder, “Carthage must be destroyed,” is: “No, it is Rome that must be destroyed”. In our historical circumstances, we are talking about the “Third Rome”. That is about Moscow.
It is said and done. And Soros creates an artificial liberal opposition in Russia itself, organizes and supports various Russophobic regimes, parties, movements, non-governmental organizations hostile to the Russia, its traditions and its authorities in all the CIS countries. “Rome must be destroyed.” After all, “Rome” is a “closed society,” and “closed society” is the enemy of “open society.” And enemies are to be destroyed. Otherwise they will destroy you. A simple but clear logic, which the liberal globalist elites of the West and their “proxies”-branches all over mankind are guided by. And those in the West itself who do not agree with Soros, such for example Donald Trump and his voters, are immediately declared “Nazis”, discriminated against, “canceled”. Moreover, “Nazis” according to Soros are all those who oppose him. If a Ukrainian terrorist with a swastika and arms up to his elbows in blood stands against Rome, he is no longer a “Nazi,” but simply a “they are just children”. And whoever is for Rome is definitely a “Nazi”. Trump, Putin, Xin Jiang Ping, Erdogan, Iranian Ayatollahs, Europeen populists. Dual Manichean logic, but that is what guides today’s global elites.
Hesitating powers
Having divided main players into two camps, Soros inspects those regimes that are in the middle – between Carthage (the US and the satellites), which is close to his heart, and hated Rome (Moscow and the satellites). Such is Modi’s India, which, on the one hand, joined the Atlanticist QUAD alliance (Carthage) and, on the other hand, is actively buying Russian oil (so, according to Soros, stays in cooperation with Rome).
Such is the case with Erdogan’s Turkey. Turkey is both a NATO member and, at the same time, a hardliner against the Kurdish terrorists that Soros actively supports. Erdogan should, in his mind, be destroying his own State with his own hands — then he would be a complete “good guy,” that is, on the side of “open society.” In the meantime, he and Modi are “half-Nazis”. Unobtrusively, Soros suggests overthrowing Modi and Erdogan and causing bloody chaos in India and Turkey. So “half-closed/half-open” societies will become fully “open”. No wonder why Erdogan does not listen to such advice, and if he hears it, he does just the opposite.
Modi is beginning to understand this as well. But not so acutely.
The same choice between slavish obedience to the global liberal oligarchy, i.e. “open society” and the preservation of sovereignty or participation in multipolar blocs (such as BRICS) Soros suggests to the recently re-elected leftist president of Brazil, Inacio Lula. Soros threatens, in case of disobedience to the globalists if Lula accepts “closed societies” camp he will confront bloody chaos. Soros draws a parallel between the January 6, 2021 Trumpist uprising in Washington and the January 8 2023 riots by supporters of Jair Bolsonaro in Brazil. Soros warns Lula: “Do like Biden, and Carthage will support you. Otherwise…” Since Soros is known for his active support of “color revolutions” (in favor of “open society”) and his direct help to terrorists of all stripes, only to have them attack Rome, that is “closed societies,” his threats are not empty words. He is capable of overthrowing governments and presidents, collapsing national currencies, starting wars and carrying out coups d’etat.
Ukraine: the main outpost of liberal hegemony in the fight against multipolarity
Soros then moves on to the war in Ukraine. Here he claims that by the fall of 2022 Ukraine had almost won the war against Russia, which, at the first stage, Soros’s deep-encrypted agents in Russia itself were apparently holding back against the long overdue decisive action on the part of the Kremlin. But after October something went wrong for Carthage. Rome carried out a partial mobilization, proceeded to destroy the industrial and energy infrastructure of Ukraine, that is, began to fight for real.
Soros especially stops at the figure of Yevgeny Prigozhin and the Wagner group. According to Soros, he was the decisive factor that turned the situation around. It is worth wondering: if a relatively small Private Military Company, which undertook to fight “properly”, could change the balance in the great war of “closed societies” against “open ones” (and this assumes a global scale of combat operations in diplomacy, politics, economics, etc.), then the full scale global dominance of the globalist should be a kind of very fragile.
Concerning his overestimation of Yevgeny Prigozhin danger I was first inclined to believe that here Soros is wrong in his pursuit of flashy symbols. But he is too often right. Moreover, he knows what a small but cohesive group of passionaries is capable of doing. Supported by such groups, Soros has repeatedly carried out coups, won wars and overthrown unwanted political leaders. And when such passionaries are on the side of Rome, it is time to worry Carthage itself.
Soros goes on to analyze the amount of military support for Kiev from the West and calls for it to be increased as much as necessary in order to defeat Russia for good. This would be the decisive victory of the “open society” – the crowning achievement of Soros’ life’s work and the of the main goal of the globalists. Soros says bluntly: that the goal of the war in Ukraine is “the dissolution of the Russian empire”. For this purpose it is necessary to gather all the forces and force all the CIS countries, especially Soros-dependent Maia Sandu, to join the war with Russia. Prigozhin and other passionaries should be eliminated, and their opponents, both internal and external, should be supported.
China and the balloon that ruined everything
Soros moves on to his second worst enemy, China, another “closed society.” Soros believes that Xi Jinping has made strategic mistakes in the fight against Covid-19 (surely manufactured and introduced into humanity at the direct instruction of Soros himself and his like-minded “open society” fellows to make it even more open to Big Pharma and to global control and total surveillance).
Soros assesses Xi Jinping’s position as weakened and believes that, despite some improvement in relations with Washington, the story of the downed Chinese balloon will lead to a new cooling in relations. The Taiwan crisis is frozen, but not solved. But now all depends on Russia. Once Russia is done, then China will cease to be an impassable obstacle to an “open society “. And color revolutions can start there: ethnic uprisings, coups and terrorist attacks – Soros knows how to do this, and probably taught it to those who will remain after he himself is gone.
Trump as the spokesman for a “closed society” in US
In the U.S. itself, Soros is cursing Trump, whom he considers a representative of a “closed society” that has adopted the role model of Vladimir Putin.
Soros dreams that neither Trump nor DeSantis will be nominated for President in 2024, but he will, as always, back up his dreams with action. This is another black mark from the World Government sent to the Republicans.
Soros as a global practitioner
This is the map of the world, according to the outgoing George Soros. He has spent nearly 100 years of his life working hard to make it exactly so. He played a role in the destruction of the socialist camp, in the anti-Soviet revolution of 1991, in destroying the Soviet Union and flooding the governments of the new post-Soviet countries with his agents. And in the 1990s, he completely controlled the Russian reformers and Yeltsin’s government, who loudly swore an oath to an “open society” at the time. Yes, Putin’s arrival snatched the final victory from him. And when this became obvious, Soros helped turn Ukraine into an aggressive Russophobic Nazi bloody zoo. It’s a bit at odds with the liberal dogma of an “open society,” but it will do in the fight against such a dangerous “closed society” as the Russian Empire.
Everything is decided in Ukraine, says Soros. If Russia wins, it will push “open society” and global liberal hegemony far back. If it falls, woe to the losers. The Soros cause will then win for good. This is the geopolitical summary.
General “warming”
At the very beginning of the speech and at the very end of it, Soros turns to another factor that poses a threat to the “open society.” It is climate change.
How they came to be put on the same board with the great geopolitical and civilizational transformations, conflicts and confrontations is wittily explained in one Russian telegram-channel, “Eksplikatsiya”. Here is the whole fragment borrowed from there.
“On February 16, 2023, a global speculator, a fanatical follower of the extremist ideology of “open society”, George Soros, gave a keynote speech in Germany at Munich Security Conference. Much of it was devoted to geopolitics and the tough confrontation of the unipolar globalist liberal world order with what Soros and the world’s elites call “closed societies”. […]
I was interested, however, in how these geopolitical constructions relate to the problem of global warming, with which Soros began and ended his speech. Putting it all together, I came to the following conclusion.
Soros clearly affirms that the melting ice of the Antarctic and the Arctic, along with Putin, Xin Jiang Ping, Erdogan, and Modi, are real threats to an “open society”, and the climate agenda is integrated directly into the geopolitical discourse and becomes a full scale participant in the great confrontation.
At first glance, this seems a bit absurd. How a hypothetical global warming (even if we accept it as real) can be counted among the enemies of the globalists, and even get the status of “threat number 1”, since Soros declares the danger of melting of the ice first and only second — of Putin in the Kremlin and the Russian troops in Ukraine.
Recall that geopolitics teaches about the confrontation of “civilizations of the Sea” and “civilizations of the Land”. Accordingly, all the main centers of Atlanticism are located in the port cities, on the coast. This was the case with Carthage, Athens, Venice, Amsterdam, London, and today with New York. This law even extends to the electoral geopolitics of the United States, where the blue States that traditionally support the Democrats, including ultra-liberal New York, are located along both coasts – Western and Eastern, and the more traditional red Republican States, whose support brought Trump, George Soros’ chief enemy, to power, make up the American Heartland.
Roughly the same is true on other continents. It was the “civilization of the Sea” that built that “open society” which George Soros fervently defends, while the “closed societies” opposed to it are the civilizations of the Land, including the Russian-Eurasian, Chinese, Indian, Latin American, and even the North American core (red States). So, if the ice melts, the level of the world’s Oceans rises rapidly. And that means that the first to be submerged will be precisely the poles of world thalassocracy – the Rimland zone, the coastal spaces which are the strongholds of the global liberal oligarchy. In such a case, the open liberal society, also called “liquid society” (Sigmund Bauman) will simply be washed away: only “closed societies” will remain, located on the Hinterland — the interior of the continents.
The warming of the earth will make many cold areas, especially in northeastern Eurasia, fertile. In America, only the Republican-supporting States will remain. The Democrat strongholds will all drown. And before that happens, the dying Soros announces his testament to the globalists: “it’s now or never: either ‘open society’ wins today in Russia, China, India, Turkey, etc., which will allow the globalist elite to save themselves on the continents by moving into the interior regions, or the “open society” will end”.
This is the only way to explain the obsession with climate change in the minds of globalists. No, they are not crazy! Not Soros, nor Schwab, nor Biden! Global warming, like “Gen. Winter” once in WWII on the Russian side in fight against Hitler did, is becoming a factor in world politics, and is now on the side of a multipolar world.
That’s a very smart explanation. It hadn’t occurred to me myself.
Soros as the neural network and operating system of Rome
In conclusion, we should pay attention to the following. The words of George Soros, when we remember who he is, what he is capable of and what he has already done, should not be taken lightly. Some critics observe “the old financial speculator is out of his mind”. Soros is not just an individual but a kind of “Artificial Intelligence” of the western liberal civilization. It is its code, its algorithm, upon which the whole structure of the global Western domination in the XXI century is built. In this multilevel full-dominance approach ideology is intertwined with economy, geopolitics with education, diplomacy with culture, secret services with journalism, medicine with terrorism, biological weapons with ecological agenda, gender politics with heavy industry and world trade. In Soros, we are dealing with an “open society” operating system where all answers, moves, steps and strategies are deliberately planned. New inputs are fed into a fine-tuned system that runs like clockwork, or rather like a supercomputer, a globalist neural network.
“A closed society,” that is, “we,” must build our own operating system, create our own codes and algorithms. It is not enough to say “no” to Soros and the globalists. It is necessary to proclaim something positive in return. And just as coherent, systemic, grounded, backed by resources and capabilities. In essence, such an Anti-Soros system is Eurasianism and the Fourth Political Theory, a philosophy of a multipolar world and a full-fledged defense of sacred tradition and traditional values. In the face of Soros it is necessary not to justify, but to attack. And at all levels and in all spheres. Right down to the environment. If Soros thinks global warming is a threat, then global warming is our ally, just as “Gen. Winter ” once was. We should enlist global warming — this unidentified hyper-object — in the “Wagner” group and present it for an award.
Soros, give us the money! The shame of Russian liberalism
Here is an example of my only meeting with Soros. At the very beginning of the 1990s I was invited to a meeting with Soros in a some conference hall in Moscow. Soros was represented by Maksim Sokolov, a liberal from the newspaper Kommersant, and some other unidentifiable Russian functionaries of the Soros Foundation. The meeting was dedicated to the presentation of the book “The Open Society and Its Enemies” by Karl Popper, a kind of “holy writ” of Soros, Biden and all contemporary liberals. In the beginning, it was mostly Popper’s supporters who spoke. But almost all said the same thing, which had nothing to do with Popper at all, like: “Dear George Soros, give me money and as much as you can!” The only variation was, “Don’t give it to him/her, he/she is a nobody, give it to me!” Soros almost fell asleep.
At the very end, they gave me the microphone as well. It turned out that I was probably the only one in the audience who had read Popper’s book under discussion. I don’t exclude the possibility that Maksim Sokolov had, too. The rest just kept repeating like clockwork: “Give me money, give me money”. Such are our liberals. No wonder they changed their ideological positions so many times that it can make your head spin. Where are they today under Special Military Operation? Everywhere. Both on that side and on ours. “Soros, give me money!” was easily replaced by “Putin, give me money!” But that’s not so important.
When I said everything I thought about the incompatibility of Russian traditional values with the individualism of the “open society,” Soros woke up and perked up. His wrinkled cheeks – even then he was not so young – flushed. After listening to my mini-lecture about how liberalism would never win in Russia, that it would be rejected and trampled upon, and that we would return to our original Russian way and confront globalism and Western hegemony again with all Russian strength (I ended with a pathetic “Go home, Mr. Soros! The earlier the better!” ), Soros had the final word. He said to the audience: “As far as I know your Russian history, revolutions are started by people like you (he pointed to majority of people sitting in the hall) and finished by people like him (he pointed to me). You didn’t say a word about Popper, and it seems that the only one who read “The Open Society and Its Enemies” was an “enemy of the open society” and just told me to fuck off. That is the tragedy of liberalism in Russia. You mean money, and he means ideas. But I hope I’m wrong, and you’ll get something”. So he ended his speech and went to Hungary.
Now he and his Foundation is not and cannot be not only in Russia, but also in Hungary, Open Society Foundation is recognized in Russia as a dangerous “terrorist organization”. What it is exactly.
But Soros has generally analyzed everything correctly. The liberals had power in their hands in the 1990s and gradually, almost imperceptibly, they lost it.
And today we are obviously going the Russian way and fighting for a multipolar world against the global hegemony of the “open society”.
After all, we are Rome and they are Carthage.
