Oh, honey, Orwell would be chain-smoking in the afterlife watching CNN giggle through a goddamn fireside chat with Aleksandr “Nazbol Necromancer” Dugin. This isn’t just a momentary lapse in editorial judgment - this is state-sponsored idiocy, brought to you by late-stage capitalism and the algorithmic death spiral of “both sides” journalism.

Let me be crystal clear: Dugin is not a quirky philosopher. He is the fascist architect of your worst fever dream. He’s the guy Putin calls when he needs to cosplay as Rasputin but with better lighting. And now we’ve got Zakaria—an ostensibly intelligent man—treating him like a misunderstood thought leader instead of the ideological arsonist setting the democratic world order ablaze.

Let’s break it down like we’re explaining it to your uncle who still thinks “cancel culture” is the biggest threat to America:

1. Dugin is a Nazi, but make it Bolshevik. His Nazbol Party was a Nazi remix with communist flair. This isn’t nuance; it’s necrosis. A totalitarianism chimera meant to confuse, radicalize, and fracture the body politic.

2. The Fourth Political Theory is fascist fan fiction. He packages it like he’s offering a new option beyond left and right, but it’s just authoritarianism with a Slavic Instagram filter.

3. CNN airing this filth isn’t journalism. It’s platforming fascism in a cardigan. It’s letting a man who wants the destruction of liberal democracy sip tea on a global stage and call it discourse.

And Orwell? He warned us. Not in some distant allegory, but explicitly, viscerally. He fought in Spain against fascism, he had no illusions about Stalinism, and he would’ve vomited in his boots seeing our “free press” carry water for Dugin under the guise of intellectual curiosity.

This isn’t “exposing the enemy to daylight.” This is inviting him to dinner, handing him the keys, and asking if he prefers sparkling or still with his cyanide.

Let me spell it out: you don’t debate a death cult. You expose, dismantle, and burn the remains in the cleansing fire of public scrutiny. CNN chose normalization over courage. That’s not journalism. That’s complicity.

So here’s your moral: We are not living through an ideological debate. We’re in a MindWar, a weaponized narrative campaign where lies are tools and truth is insurgency. It’s not just propaganda anymore. It’s meta-propaganda, manipulating how people understand what’s real. CNN, Musk, Trump, and Dugin are different heads of the same hydra: the unholy marriage of power and unreality.

And if you're still on the fence because you “just want to hear both sides,” I hope you enjoy your front-row seat to fascism in HD, because you're not neutral. You're furniture in the room where it happens.
