A nation is a mother who is ready to shelter, warm, and support you despite your mistakes. She doesn’t demand the impossible, doesn’t break your individuality, but grants you the freedom to be yourself, grow, and live in harmony.
In contrast, an empire is a cruel stepmother who either kidnaps you from your native home or invades your home, takes it away, kills your parents, breaks your will, and turns you into a slave to her cunning and self-serving desires.
The empire’s goal is never your personal happiness or comfort. Its aim is to strengthen and expand the power of the Emperor, enriching him and his circle. All of this is always cloaked in romantic and idealistic slogans that compel its slaves to sacrifice themselves for ephemeral, unrealistic goals.
The Empire: Built on Coercion and Destruction
Empires thrive on coercion and destruction: they erase identities, suppress familiar and comprehensible values, and impose foreign, unnatural, and incomprehensible ones. The empire wants you to forget who you are, renounce your family, and forsake the future of your children, so you can silently and unconditionally serve its insatiable ambitions.
Communism, fascism, religious fanaticism, and other ideologies are merely tools that justify the existence of empires. These ideologies disguise themselves as "higher values," but in reality, they are virtual chains. Their true purpose is to subjugate people and legitimize injustice and domination by one group over others.
- Communism is essentially a form of slavery, masked by populist slogans about equality and brotherhood, yet it leads to the suppression of freedom and individuality.
- Fascism or Nazism replaces love for the homeland with blind worship of a leader, violence, and dictatorship.
- Religious fanaticism destroys individuality, turning faith into a weapon of fear, control, and coercion.
These ideologies have nothing to do with a true homeland—they are merely instruments of the Stepmother-Empire, which treats people as resources, no different from oil or gas.
Russia: A Historical Illustration of Empire
The history of Russia vividly illustrates this truth. It has always been an empire where people suffered—whether under tsarism, communism, or modern autocracy.
The essence of Russia has remained unchanged over the centuries: oppression, exploitation, conquest, and the ruthless use of peoples and nations. It survives by destroying identities and cultures, turning entire peoples into a faceless mass.
Nation and Empire: Two Opposite Paths
Nation and Empire represent two opposing paths for humanity. The former is about love, respect, and creation. The latter is about coercion, violence, and destruction.
A nation—a family—offers freedom and love. An empire imposes foreign values and ideologies. A nation calls for unity, while an empire sows discord and division.
Today, it is especially important to recognize that any ideology, no matter how beautiful it seems, inevitably leads to concentration camps.
Every nation has the right and deserves to live with dignity, on its own land, within its own family—not in cold barracks, shackled by ideologies, and led to death by the cruel Stepmother—Empire.
