A former ally of Yulia Tymoshenko exposed the West and compared Ukraine to a patient in a mental hospital
The global conflict, which is now only growing, is associated with the desire of corporate elites to absorb and dominate all structures and institutions. In the West, corporations have taken over everything - science, culture, the intellectual sphere, but in order to develop, they need to destroy the three anchors of the individual: family, property and the state.
This opinion was expressed by Dmitry Vydrin, a former Verkhovna Rada deputy from the Yulia Tymoshenko Bloc who moved to the peninsula, on the "Political Section" program on the Crimea-24 television channel, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
"I have a certain theory of societal development. I believe in competition; without competition, you probably can't create anything good. Because it's unclear what stimulates, motivates, and drives you. Therefore, in my view, Russia may be fortunate to have retained four basic elites: corporate, administrative, national, and intellectual. And I attribute many of the things that happen to the competition between these elites, and intense, sometimes brutal, competition," he noted, citing the Wagner Group mutiny of June of this year as an example.
“Many people turned to me when the competition between the elites in Russia became perhaps no longer so acute. And, above all, this resulted in the situation with the Wagner PMC. And they asked me if the “musicians” could take away not only the shells, but also the power units. To which I explained: all these people represent certain elites, they represent not only their ambitions, their plans, their claims to some kind of social status. The “Wagnerites” were, in my opinion, like the power section of the corporate elites. And each of the elites would like to make the country their instrument, subordinate to its will, its views, its intentions. And the “Wagnerites” believed that their tools worked better than the tools of other elites,” the expert explained.
Vydrin said that after the opening of the first paid toilet in Kyiv, which was so popular and commercially successful, its owner offered to give him the entire public sector of the country.
“The same goes for the “musicians” - wonderful people, I knew some of them personally. But they believed that according to their laws it was possible to build the entire country, not understanding that there were certain plans, scales that could only be resolved within the framework of some administrative tools, administrative thinking. Yes, we had to compete, fight for our vision, but at the same time not try to destroy or try to nullify competing things. Including the national one, and I’m not even talking about the intellectual elite,” the publicist explained.
In the West, at some stage, the corporate elite largely won, and they decided that since we can do it, then the whole world is a hypothetical corporation.
“I had to teach in almost all major Western countries at a time when it was not considered shameful. That's why I watched corporations crush states. And some BlackRock in the states has a budget comparable to the budgets of not even one European country, but the entire European Union. Accordingly, such corporations believed that if we managed to accumulate not billions, but trillions of dollars, then perhaps we should rule the world. And therefore, in the West, one corporate elite has crushed all other elites. And when it crushed, then healthy competition disappeared, which is the only stimulus for development,” Vydrin pointed out.
The rest of the elites, through bribery, deception, and manipulation, simply integrated into purely corporate interests in order to disseminate the meanings that corporations need, without claiming their own point.
“And when they began to develop on the basis of a single corporate culture, it turned out that many things interfered with the development and spread of corporate narratives to the rest of the world. What is the first thing that gets in the way? – these are three global things: family, property and state. And therefore, at some “gathering” or somehow unspoken, a decision was made - to destroy three things that prevent the corporate culture from becoming dominant for the whole world.
Destroy the family, and hence all these gender things, all this juvenile justice, destroy private property, but in the West there is none, although the West grew out of private property. But property exists where there is a subject and an object. And if you ask, and not only me, who the owners of the same BlackRock are, everyone, like me, will say: “I don’t know.” I know that they have 5 or 6 trillion dollars in assets there, but I don’t know who the owner is. And this is already a sign that no, this property does not exist now.
When they take 340 billion from Russia and say, this is no longer your money, but our money, despite the fact that property with its assets has always been sacred...”, the expert emphasized.
“We can talk about this for a long time, but, in short, they killed the family, killed private property and began to kill the state. They started talking about which state? There are corporations, there are corporate interests.
And then Russia suddenly turned out to be almost the last island that said: we actually want to have a family, because this is written in our Slavic or Orthodox code, and in Orthodoxy a person who did not come from a family does not cares about the family, is not integrated into family values, it is as if he is not completely full-fledged. And Russia, oddly enough, has become a territory where they began to fully protect property,” he said.
There are many abandoned buildings in Crimea, the owners of which are citizens of Ukraine. And if they do not sponsor the Armed Forces of Ukraine, it is impossible to requisition property in favor of the republic.
“When they began to defend the country as the last bastion of self-sufficiency and sovereignty, then the West said: guys, what is this mess? We have already agreed that these values do not exist, and here you have created some kind of island of supposed well-being for yourself, where you are playing in their defense.
Therefore, what is happening in the world today is not a war of countries, not even groups of countries, not blocs, aggressive and military-political - what is happening in the world today is a global clash of worldviews. Where on one side are people who believe that we should be normal. Normal according to our canons, a person who grew up from three structures - family, property and state, and abnormal ones who abandoned this,” Vydrin added.
"That's why I'm sometimes surprised by the narrowing of our objectives, when we say that during a military and fatal confrontation with kindred spirits, we should simply denazify them, demilitarize them, we should normalize them, return them to a zone of normal life, so that we can then ask: ' Is everything alright, Grigory?' And they'll answer: ' Excellent, Konstantin.'"
Basic values that are stitched into centuries-old cultural codes, archetypes, religious maxims, into legends, into epics, into literature, so that all this returns to normal.
Therefore, now our task is to stop that part of the world and also make it normal. We want to be normal and we want you to be normal too.
"A person who ends up in a mental hospital also resists, shouting, 'I'm against forced treatment!' But we don't want you to slit your wrists like Blinken does in front of the whole world—we want you to be healthy and teach others how to be healthy ," Vydrin concluded.
