"The very concept of the success is deeply immoral. If you are successful the other is loser. We shouldn’t accept it. We should prosper or suffer together. Otherwise it is satanic. - Aleksandr Dugin, X/Twitter, July 10 2026"

The YouTube description is just promotional links for the Ayn Rand Institute, so I quoted the main Aleksandr Dugin X post instead.

That one quote alone shows what a sicko he is. That Tucker Carlson follows him explains a lot.

Is Putin’s spiritual advisor still alive? Is he ashamed of his pupil mucking up Ukraine? He told Putin it would be a cakewalk. He was wrong.

Success is a zero sum game?

Well, yes, if you are living in a socialist hellhole in which wealth creation is suppressed. Then everything is redistribution, and that is indeed a zero sum game.

But outside of socialist hellholes, people can prosper from voluntary win-win arrangements.

Socialists should stop projecting.

If anyone knows Satan, it’s Alexander Dugin. He is a disciple of Alister Crowley, and frequently led Satanic events in Moscow where Crowley was read and honored. When he speaks of Satanic collectivism, he speaks his native language.

'success is a zero sum game?'

To bitter, envious people, it always is. They're incapable of thinking any other way.

Who has Musk impoverished on his way to making a trillion?

Not only did he get rich but he’s enriched millions of others.

“ If you are successful the other is loser.”

This is the most basic error committed by those who know nothing about economics. The vast majority of a market economy (erroneously called capitalism by its detractors) is characterized by win/win deals.

“The vast majority of a market economy (erroneously called capitalism by its detractors) is characterized by win/win deals.”

That’s what I observed in Iraq in 2004. When the government was gone and its functionaries in hiding P2P commerce boomed. Everyone seemed to be buying, selling, swapping, etc. No credit cards or ATMs. Cash was king and it was bustling. Bought a bunch of jewelry for my women.

I remember one instance in particular. HQ shipped down a full size computer rack, servers, routers, etc. but no rack hardware or fasteners. I took one set of rack fasteners to our local HadjiMart. An English speaking kid was like the concierge for the market. I showed him the fasteners. He went to an older man and spoke with him. I told him I needed 64 ASAP. He said $8 and 2 days. I said deal and we shook on it. Two days later I go back and the older guy has a black plastic bag with the fasteners. I check. Exact match to the hardware I gave him. Figured he probably pinched it off the shipment from Baghdad since fasteners are included with the rack.

He asked for extra money but I told the concierge kid “a deal is a deal”. He repeated it to the guy. The man shrugged and nodded. The Deal was done.

Capitalism-and-Commerce is the natural state of humanity. Either that or violence and theft which doesn’t make for a stable society and does not support development. Socialism is just a justification for theft.

Wrong indeed!

What Putin didn't know is that, the cake he would be walking over, was quicksand.

The biggest enemy of socialism/communism, is the human mind.

The human mind does not understand working to support the lazy. Redistribution of one’s earnings or wealth, is not natural to any human.
