How M-N- Immanence In China and Russia's Identification With ComMUNIsm DeMoNstrates Their Anti-Western Rhetoric's Fake.
Very often fake Ukrainian Ruschist trolls are marked by the way they Other, negatively, the West.
Donbass S does this all the time dividing Ukraine from the West rhetorically. Promoting only difference, not the identity between us Indo-Europeans.
Genuine Central Europeans, who share a Euro-Atlantic world view, also Other "the West". So this is not a fail-safe Ruschist troll detector.
Yet, where the Othering is coupled with vicious, or negating sentiMeNt, then, that's, generally speaking, a Ruschist state-funded troll promoting division.
Often, like Donbass S, they simply can't help themselves with the anti-Western rhetoric - they're brain-washed Ruschists who promote difference, genocide and ecocide as a job.
Yet, we're all Indo-Europeans (except, linguistically speaking, the Basques, Finns and Hungarians).
I include the Axis of Misogyny (Russia, Iran and China) in this plea to see us as essentially culturally similar, as well as Japan, Tibet, Taiwan & South Korea.
Not linguistically, of course, yet Tibet, China, Central Asia, Japan, and South Korea as MahayaNa Buddhist cultures for MilleNnia are as Indo-European as you can get.
MaiNly Indo-European aspects of MahayaNa Buddhism (from Nalanda MoNks in India) have been the MaiN identity, consciousness and religion-forming ideology from Ireland to Indonesia for over 1,500 years.
"ComMUNIsm" of course is also an Indo-European ideology (old wine in new bottles).
The "Muni" in the word is one of the near ubiquitous M-N- sounds that signifies "energy" and began as the MooN-based metaphor among the first Indo-European language speakers in Ancient Ukraine.
The central idea in Marxism is a very ancient proto-Indo-European/Ancient Ukrainian idea with fancy modern clothes on:
In Capitalism, according to Marx's 1844 / Paris Manuscripts, the proletarian is alienated (psychologically) from their own MaNa when the physical output of their labour is (alienated from them /) appropriated by the Capitalist.
The wage Capital pays Labour in return for the worker investing some of their soul / Mana / energy into the output of their labour does not, according to Marx, ameliorate this psychological alienation.
In early GerMaNic and RoMaN law, (which are close to their Ancient Ukrainian roots) we have evidence that something of ourselves (our Mana/Subtle Energy) becomes a part of the objects we touch, possess, and create.
The reMNant (another M-N- word) of this is in modern contract law in CoMmoN Law jurisdictions - even when there's no MoNey (another M-N- word) to be paid, a peppercorn (consideration) is given by the lessee/renter/tenant to the property owner in return for the right of the tenant to occupy the property.
In that peppercorn is the "MaNa" of the renter.
This exchange of MaNa between the two contracting parties is the essence of the nexus or contract.
This is a core Indo-European belief about what connects us in comMuNities (another M-N- word).
So the idea that Russia or China which, even today, promote their identity by reference to ComMuNism are "anti-Western" is somewhat laughable.
When you see in either place a comMuNist flag or hear comMuNist rhetoric (Chinese ComMuNist Party anyone!) remember, this is core Indo-European stuff, linguistically, religiously, and substantively.
It's evidence that this "anti-western" pose is merely rhetorical othering.
It's a troll.
Our Indo-European language and (for non-Indo-European language speakers) our world view formed by Indo-European religious and legal world views connect us to one another in ways which those who seek to divide us gloss over.
The ComMoN Source for much of these core Indo-European aspects of our identities, worldviews, languages, values (as enshrined in our post-WWII legal order) and religious outlooks is located geographically in an area of eastern Ukraine affected particularly when Russia blew the dam.
