Dugin Deploying Post-Modernism

By Leo Gura - September 7, 2024

It’s just damned fascinating how Dugin uses PM to undermine the West.

This is such a clean, perfect example:

“We have our special Russian truth.”

What do you think? Is it true that Russia has its special Russian truth and America has its special American truth? In what sense is this correct and in what sense is it not?

It’s not so obvious. Take your time mulling it over.

What do you think about this notion of multi-polarity? Post-modernism opens the door to mutli-polarity. But what then? How do we resolve disputes between different worldviews/truths if there is no objective ground? Do we just go to war and see who kills whom? And then whatever survives is the truth?

The problem with having multiple special truths is that they don’t get along. One truth seeks to dominate and suppress the others. But in order to have a single truth, it too needs to dominate and destroy all the others. This situation is what I call epistemic anarchy. Imagine an epistemic wild west where there is no sheriff, no law, so every truth must fight every other truth to the death. But then what happens when one truth kills all the others and enthrones itself as king? How will that king defend his kingdom when new truths arise and plot to stab him in the back? Truth is endless war!
