Talk:Alexander Dugin

Dugin is not a Putin advisor, has never met Putin, nor has Putin ever quoted him in a speech, nor did Dugin have a personal security detail as Russian officials have to guard against assassination. He is an ordinary citizen and college professor.

Polish Intelligence has created all the fake news and mystical lies about Dugin which Western MSM takes as gospel. RobS^{Ich bin ein breakfast taco} 03:00, August 22, 2022 (EDT)

Dugin as an individual has been distanced from by Russian officials since late 2014, when he was fired from his position at Moscow State University for making statements advocating the ethnic cleansing of Ukrainians. His ideological writings (such as The Fourth Political Theory) has also been largely rejected by Russian officials, at least at the upper level. However, his geopolitical writings (such as Foundations of Geopolitics) are still considered influential among Russian officials, particularly those serving in a military capacity.

That being said, the West has indeed exaggerated the degree of Dugin’s influence on Russian politics. He’s not Putin’s “Rasputin,” nor do his personal beliefs on domestic politics automatically make Putin a Nazbol. And on a related note, Dugin is not a Nazi or even a Fascist. He’s a Nazbol, which is a distinct ideology that both Western and Russian media seem to pretend doesn’t exist.--Geopolitician (talk) 12:41, August 22, 2022 (EDT)

The Russian National Army (Vlasovites) are now taking credit for the assassination, which opens a new line of investigation. Are CIA contacts with Vlasovites as extensive as they are with Banderites? RobS^{Ich bin ein breakfast taco} 14:40, August 22, 2022 (EDT)

Update: Russian criminal investigators have identified the assassin, Vovk Natalya Pavlovna, a woman who escaped to Estonia. RobS^{Ich bin ein breakfast taco} 14:56, August 22, 2022 (EDT)

According to the FSB, Pavlovna is a Ukrainian national who had entered Russia with her daughter just last month.--Geopolitician (talk) 20:24, August 22, 2022 (EDT)

Yah, and they changed license plates three times. She lived in the same apartment complex as Dugina (in Russian idioms, they refer to living in the same complex as "living in the same house". They call their apartment building their "house"). Should we start a separate Darya Dugina article? Russian media is already calling post-February 24, 2022, "the Age of Darya". RobS^{Ich bin ein breakfast taco} 20:39, August 22, 2022 (EDT)

Natalia Vovk is the perps name.

Apparantly, Darya was the target, not the old man.

FSB is laying the blame squarely on SBU, which is the same as CIA, MI5, etc. RobS^{Ich bin ein breakfast taco} 20:50, August 22, 2022 (EDT)

Here's the Investigative Committee's website which provides updates. RobS^{Ich bin ein breakfast taco} 20:53, August 22, 2022 (EDT)

Darya Dugina's death will ensure that her father's cause will gain popularity among all levels of Russian society.--Geopolitician (talk) 15:59, August 25, 2022 (EDT)

Putin said weeks ago, "We have not even started yet." Dugin said the other day, "Time to start." The big significance of this is, the CIA/SBU has now spread the conflict outside Ukraine borders through terrorism. RobS^{Ich bin ein breakfast taco} 16:13, August 25, 2022 (EDT)

Update: Vovk evidently was spotted in Austria the other day; the person who listed Vovk's car for sale in Estonia was a 22 year old male with the same name as Vovk's maiden name. Vovk is 42 years old. RobS^{Ich bin ein breakfast taco} 16:19, August 25, 2022 (EDT)

Contrary to initial reports, Darya evidently was the target, not her father. Although her father is on the SBU public kill list, I'm not certain she was. She was however, added to the UK sanctions list a month ago after reporting on Nazi paraphernalia and literature found in Azovstal (Graham Philips and John Mark Dougan who accompanied her were added to the kill list).

Darya Dugin's married name is Darya Platonova (meaning her husband's name is Platonoff or Platonov). RobS^{Ich bin ein breakfast taco} 16:26, August 25, 2022 (EDT)

Correction: Dugina was on the kill list. RobS^{Ich bin ein breakfast taco} 02:05, August 26, 2022 (EDT)

Digression

Polish Intelligence is responsible for all the misinformation and Russophobia in the West about Dugin being "Putin's brain", etc.

Peter Strzok's name appears to be an Americanization of a Polish name like Strzokowsky or Strzokowski or a number of other such variants. Strzok is Polish. Strzok likewise was born around the time Martial law was declared in Poland and the Solidarity strikes. RobS^{Ich bin ein breakfast taco} 16:37, August 25, 2022 (EDT)
