An open letter to undisclosed recipients

[ An undisclosed personal part ]

Sorry for taking your time. I have some important information, but I do not have good news. A year ago, on May 11th, 2022, I wrote in my notes that the American misunderstanding of Russia's fundamental motivations is dangerous, and it will lead the world toward irreparable errors. I do not believe this text can change anything. I simply hand over some information, and this action frees me from my internal moral obligations.

The Russian unconventional psychology behind the war in Ukraine, which I will refer to as the ZZ-war — the Double-Zombie-War — is complicated. The ZZ-war has yielded some non-trivial insights applicable to social engineering, a professional interest of mine. I have spent several months gathering information to understand the psychological phenomena behind this war. Some results are presented to a small group of Russian-speaking people in my blog which I use as a research journal. (https://vit-r.dreamwidth.org/1157167.html?style=light, Russian)

An in-depth explanation for those who are alien to Russian culture would be a thick book project, and I lack time for it. However, there is an obvious yet overlooked fact that reveals the main reasons for the immoral, illogical, and devastating character of the ZZ-war: The ZZ-war is not rational, it is scientific.

Note, this is not a tricky conclusion derived from some insane conspiracy theories. This information is available to anybody. There are a lot of books and articles written by Russian scientists that disclose the science behind the ZZ-war. Their lectures can be watched even on American YouTube.

Of course, this science is hard to understand. It uses strange meanings for obvious words. For instance, people outside Russia do not comprehend why Ukraine is called an aggressor and why the Jew Zelensky was labeled a "Nazi president".

However, Russian scientists do not do anything unusual; they only follow the American lead. For instance, the WHO recently changed the definitions of such words as "pandemic" and "vaccine" to something that was not a pandemic or vaccine before COVID-19. The reasons for these changes are also hard to understand.

There is another reason for misunderstanding. You may think that true science attempts to connect all dots to draw a consistent image of reality that explains or predicts all discovered facts. If it cannot comprehend some real-world facts, it agrees that it itself lacks some critically important knowledge. Such science was present in the 20th century, but it is nowadays perceived as defective.

The modern American-style science is effective: its goal is to create an impressive image only over the dots that pass into this image. This approach allows American-style scientists to make bold predictions that secure future funding. They do not concern themselves with the dots which they cannot connect. If the modern science cannot comprehend some real-world facts, it applies administrative measures to suppress any information about these facts.

We can agree that the ZZ-war is based on science if we accept the modern meaning of the word "science".

I am not a philosopher, and this is not an offer to start a theoretical discussion. I am an engineer who is simply describing obvious practical facts easily obtainable through proper information gathering methods. Of course, I am a bit better at my analysis than the American CIA, which had the absurd idea that the Russian Federation really has an army able to seize Ukraine in two weeks. I wrote on day two that Russia had obviously lost already, since the ZZ-war was planned in a fictional, scientifically-based world against unreal enemies. (https://vit-r.dreamwidth.org/1152839.html?style=light, Russian)

The CIA analysts are brilliant, but they have ignored the points that did not fit in their scientifically-approved image of Russia. I have simply assumed that the Russians do not try to deceive anybody; they only try to explain what they really think.

Note, I do not call Mr. Putin a good man, a democrat, or a wise politician. He is bad, but his personal psychological traits are unimportant. It would be erroneous to portray him as a Hollywood-style dictator who invaded a foreign country solely because he is mad and evil. All his political decisions were prepared by Russian bureaucrats and Russian scientists.

If you want to understand Mr. Putin, you must consider him an American-style president who is concerned with scientific predictions, who sincerely believes in science, and who was forced to make unavoidable decisions that follow the best recommendations of the greatest scientists.

Of course, the science behind these decisions is not the American science. It is the Russian science. I will refer them to as the A-science and the R-science.

You may think the R-science is not scientific, but it is as scientific as human-made Global Warming, WHO programs to combat infectious diseases, worldwide administrative initiatives to repair ozone depletion, and many other American attempts to lead humanity into a scientifically approved future.

You can find unmistakable similarities if you compare the A-science and the R-science by ignoring their ideas and taking into account only their scientific methods.

The American-style science removes unscientific facts from reality through administrative measures. All evidence against scientifically approved methods to fight COVID-19 (face masks, vaccines, lockdowns, prohibitions of Trump's hydroxychloroquine and cat's ivermectin, etc.) was rigorously censored on American-controlled media platforms like Twitter and Facebook because the A-science has declared that such information can harm public safety and state interests. The Russian state repeats these security measures by censoring all information concerning war crimes and war losses in Ukraine because the R-science has declared that such information can harm public safety and state interests.

Americans say that Russian courts destroy political opponents. From the Russian point of view, they just punish those who spread dangerous lies. The future catastrophe caused by criminal inaction is as real for the R-science, as the consequences of the human-made Climate Change are real and terrifying from the point of view of the A-science. It is obvious that the Russian government tries to save Russian citizens and silences people who try to deny this unavoidable, scientifically approved mission.

The current R-science is based on Marxist theory of historical forces. It has abandoned some insignificant parts of the Marxist philosophy — such as the theory of classes —, but the overall structure remains. The role of classes was replaced by the role of cultures, Lenin was replaced by Dostoevsky, the future communist world was replaced by the Christian heaven, yet greedy American capitalists still remain as the source of all the world's disasters.

Likewise, the A-science has adopted the greenhouse theory created in the 18th century as the primary driver of the disastrous climate change. The modern climatology has removed from scientific consideration many insignificant parts of the old-style 20th century climatology. (For instance, the spacepox https://vit-r.dreamwidth.org/1169440.html?style=light)

Many ideas that may seem illogical when judged by common sense are entirely valid if we consider them as science. Therefore, the US must study the R-science to understand Russian politics.

For instance, the division of the Soviet Union is considered in modern Russia to be the greatest historical catastrophe of the 20th century. According to the R-science, this splintering was an unnatural process forced by aggressive external capitalist forces (Soros, the US government, the British monarchy, etc.). Consequently, the R-science proves on this scientific basis that it is necessary to reverse this disintegration.

It is unproductive to tell Russians that they are insane. The R-science has its own ideas, but it copies the ways of thinking typical for the A-science, which considers the carbon-based industrialization to be the greatest climate catastrophe of the 21st century. According to the A-science, this human-made unnatural process was performed by aggressive capitalistic forces and must be reversed.

Americans do not believe the Russian scientific point of view is real. They have said many times that Russians are simply lying. Yet their attitude toward the R-science mirrors climate change deniers' claim that the A-science is a fraud.

Fortunately, the A-science (which is supported by Soros, the US government, the British monarchy, etc.) has won over the world through money and persuasion. Even Germany — that was twice conquered by military force in the 20th century — willingly performs now the green deindustrialization because of scientific, economic, and political reasons.

As you may know, Mr. Putin has tried for many years to apply scientific, economic, and political measures to correct Ukraine. He had said that he was forced into a military operation because this was the last remaining option.

We have no reason to believe his words were dishonest from his point of view.

The West and the Ukrainian government have ignored the scientific works of Russian scientists and even Putin's scientific explanations about his historic rights and obligations. What would happen if some foreign country were to ridicule the Green New Deal as unscientific rubbish, deny Global Warming, call A-science idiocy, and act in ways leading to scientifically proven global problems that dangerously impact American lives and future generations of Americans?

Russian politicians receive highly insulting responses to their scientific warnings and explanations. The R-science is as important to the Russian government as the A-science is to the US government. It takes precedence over personal feelings and common sense. The unavoidable health damage to some insignificant people and inevitable economic harm to some greedy insignificant capitalists can be disregarded relative to the greater goals. The US has demonstrated this many times, and they try to propagate this scientific mindset towards the whole world.

They have succeeded in Russia yet in the Russian way. The same mindset — but based on the R-science — drives the ZZ-war.

There is another issue critically important for the future developments of the ZZ-war. Assuming the R-science does really exist and plays a crucial role in defining Russian politics, we can deduce that the US is now unable to pull out of this conflict. They happen to declare an existential war on Russia. Of course, it was a war declaration only in R-science's terms, and nobody from NATO's side had noticed this critical event in the spring of 2022, but the Russians perceived it in their own specific way. And now this war just cannot be stopped. Russia may lose, but it is unable to surrender, or even to stop the offensive. Mr. Putin, the Russian government, and a significant part of the populace stand ready and willing to commit even politically and economically suicidal actions.

If you have questions, I can provide further information. However, I see no possibility left to resolve this crisis. It is too late for the US to do anything. Negotiations with Mr. Putin are unlikely, since they were suggested by President Trump. Even if attempted, such negotiations would inevitably fail.

It appears that modern US politicians know only two methods for addressing critical problems: they either try to purchase a solution or just throw money into the problem at hand, believing that it will go away if they fund it properly.

The second approach was tried after the Soviet Union's collapse but has proven useless. American money provided to keep the Russian Federation alive has created Mr. Putin who now leads the hybrid war against the US. American money provided to keep the Soviet science alive has created the very same R-science that now guides Mr. Putin in his hybrid war against the US. American money was also invested in the Russian industry, which now produces modern weapons.

The first approach to spend money is more sophisticated, but it is based on the bold assumption that all people share American values, all people love American money, and thus all people can be persuaded to do something good for the US if they get a lot of American money in return.

Unfortunately, these assumptions do not work with Russia. The Russians sincerely and scientifically believe that American values are wrong, American money is dirty, and Americans are deceitful liars who do not hold on to their promises. While the US may buy some Russian politicians, the R-science will never be sold.

Social engineering is a manipulation technique that exploits human error to gain private information, access, or valuables.

я віжу 3 неісправімых дефекта в тексте:
1 - обоснованія войны нікто в рф не называет наукой
разве что дугін геополітіку, но все понімают, что это такое боевое враньё орков

2 - тролленіе "а у вас в амеріке негров вешают" автоматіческі теряет чітателя

3 - текст неконструктівен
вы западные підорасы, і вам гамон
зачем такой текст чітать?

прогнозов нет, советов нет, просто імейте в віду, что сумасшедшіе счітают свой бред чем-то обоснованным
а то амеріканцы не знают і счітают, что врагі просто хуліганят без обоснованій?

я вам советую как текст улучшить
"так вы слона не продадите"

например, про науку можно вполне культурно без всякого ковида и климата объяснить
что в хунте есть мода на псевдонауку геополитику
что они её там всерьёз воспринимают как научное обоснование дранг нах вестен фюр лебенсраум

и что у них процесс мышления действительно крутится вокруг разных шатких конструкций разных шарлатанов

в принципе, если найти западных аналогов (китаец в италии, серб в германии) и проплатить им, то может они экспертно раскритикуют кремлёвские бредни и найдут для потребителя менее бредовую в мировом масштабе роль

Насчёт англояза, да... Гляньте, пожалуста, как Вам моя редактура:

The Russian war against Ukraine cannot be understood through the lens of American psychology. Even people within Russian culture struggle to find the reasons and driving forces behind this conflict. Many Russian experts claim to know hidden truths, but unfortunately, these individuals view Russia through an American perspective, attempting to explain it in American terms. Despite the continual inaccuracy of their predictions, such people are still highly regarded by Americans as experts on Russian politics. The following text attempts to explain one of the main mistakes in current understandings of Russian politics.

Thank you for taking the time to read this. I have no intention to persuade or change your mind. A year ago, on May 11th, 2022, I wrote in my notes that the American misunderstanding of Russia's fundamental motivations is dangerous. It can, and probably will, lead the world toward catastrophic, irreparable errors. I do not believe this text can change anything. I am simply presenting some information, to fulfill my internal moral obligations.

Let's imagine I am an unnamed engineer who has applied methods of social engineering and obtained some interesting results. I will not elaborate on the complex psychological factors behind the war that began on 2022-02-24, which I will refer to as the ZZ-war (the Double Zombie War). My goal now is to write a single sentence that could be grasped by all Europeans who lived through the COVID-19 disaster and critically analyzed that experience. There is an obvious yet overlooked reason that explains the immoral, illogical, and devastating characteristics of the ZZ-war.

The ZZ-war is not rational, it’s scientific.

Please note, that this is not a logical conclusion derived from some insane psychological theories. I write based on experience and observation. There are a lot of articles written by Russian scientists, lectures that can be watched even on YouTube, and there are numerous Russian scientific conferences that disclose the Russian science behind the ZZ-war.

The obsolete yet widely accepted legend about science states that true science attempts to connect all dots to form an image of reality that explains or predicts all discovered facts. This conception of science is flawed, as it suggests that if there are real world facts the science cannot comprehend, then the science itself must be lacking crucial knowledge.

Modern American-style science is effective: its goal is to create an impressive narrative and make predictions that can secure future funding. American-style scientists do not concern themselves with the dots which they cannot connect. The modern scientific culture teaches us that all information about facts that do not fit into the aforementioned impressive scientific narrative can be canceled through administrative means.

We can consider the ZZ-war a war based on science if we accept the the right (i.e., modern) meaning of the word "science".

Please note, I am not suggesting Mr. Putin is a good man, a democrat, or a wise politician. He is bad, but his personal psychological traits are unimportant. It would be erroneous to portray him as a Hollywood-style dictator who invaded a foreign country solely because he is mad and evil. All his political decisions were prepared by Russian bureaucrats and scientists. Mr. Putin cannot respond to situations without such counsel. He was even unable to halt Prigozhin's rebellion.

Но вот я дальше читаю (внимательно) и вижу нелогичные переходы, например, в [ 23 / 1 ] описывается Mr. Putin и его ситуация, а в [ 23 / 2 ] вдруг говорится: "This point of view creates wrong predictions and inadequate political decisions." С чего бы вдруг, нормально ж было описано, вовсе не гений зла, а просто слушает советников, и даже мятеж вот не смог сам подавить...

Или: [ 16 ] The modern American perception of the Science as something truthful, progressive, and common for the whole humanity denies the existence of other sciences, but let us imagine, that other sciences that are fully alien to the American science simply may exist.

А потом вдруг:

[ 15 ] You can find unmistakable similarities if you compare them with the features of the modern Russian science.

Продолжаю тренировать свой инглишь.

Или — не надо? Во всяком случае, так Вам хоть станет чуть ясней, что читатель понимает, а что — не очень ,)

[ 14 / 1 ] Of course, the science behind these decisions is not the American science. It is the Russian science, born from Marxist education, Russian imperial orthodox philosophy, the ignorance of those in power, and attempts to grow American scientific seeds in the local soil. Note, that the attempts to copy the US are the primary source of recent Russian decisions.

You may think the Russian science is not scientific, but it is as scientific as human-made Global Warming, WHO programs to combat infectious diseases, worldwide efforts to administratively close the ozone hole, and many other American attempts to lead humanity into a scientifically approved future.

The modern American perception of Science, as something truthful, progressive, and universal to the whole humanity, denies the existence of alternative sciences. But let us imagine that other sciences which are fully alien to American science, may indeed exist.

You can find unmistakable similarities if you compare the American science and the Russian science by ignoring their ideas and only analyzing their methods.

As we know, Russia has broken some fundamental rules of international conduct, and the Russian definition of a "Nazi state" cannot be explained rationally to the outside world.

However, the WHO had also decided that the SARS-CoV-2 virus is too dangerous to adhere to the long-standing health regulations. It even changed the definition of the words "pandemic" and "vaccine" to something that was not a pandemic or vaccine before COVID-19.

Of course, those decisions were entirely scientific. Russian science does not do anything outrageous; it only follows the American lead.

One of the most important processes in preparing for the ZZ-war was censorship of information. You can compare this feature to American science, which also removes unscientific facts from reality.

Likewise, a denial of Global Warming is considered fake news in the US, as the US prepares the Green New Deal to save humanity from climate change. This is even written in school textbooks.

A denial of the national-socialistic character of the current Ukrainian government is considered fake news in Russia. The Russian Federation prepared a military operation to save Ukrainian citizens from this nationalist oppression. This is even written in Russian school textbooks.

Criticism and contradictory evidence against the scientifically approved methods to fight COVID-19, including scientifically approved vaccines and scientifically approved drugs, was rigorously censored on American-controlled media platforms like Twitter and Facebook, because American science has declared such information fake. Similarly, the Russian state censors all information concerning war crimes and war losses in Ukraine, because Russian science has declared it fake.

Note that criticism of the war on Russian social media platforms is censored in a significantly laxer manner than criticism of total vaccination on platforms like Facebook, (former) Twitter, and YouTube.

And Russian courts do not destroy political opponents; they just punish those who spread dangerous lies. Of course, the punishment is somewhat harsher than the American punishment of those who spread dangerous misinformation about vaccines. However, we must avoid emotional blindness and view these differences as insignificant cultural anomalies.

Please note that the future catastrophe from criminal inaction is as real for Russian science as the consequences of Climate Change are from the perspective of American science. Clearly, the Russian government aims to save the Russian people and is obliged to silence those who try to deny this unavoidable historic mission.

Current Russian science is based on the Marxist theory of historical forces. All people in power in modern Russia are not only old, but also Soviet. They are former members of the Communist Party, trained to think in Marxist philosophy terms from school through high school and party trainings. They apply this way of thinking unconsciously now, and so their explanations are difficult to understand for people schooled in other philosophies.

Of course, they likely do not believe now -- and probably never believed -- in a communist future. But their thinking process is framed in terms of historic responsibilities, decisive historic moments, and unavoidable historic decisions. They claim orthodox Christianity as their current belief, but this shift pertains only to the state's declared goals. Scientific thinking does not change when an old scientific direction is proven wrong.

Take note, by the way, that the modern Russian Communist Party is led by modern Russian communists who are fully immersed in modern Russian Orthodox Christianity. The Marxists' historical opposition to religion has been mysteriously reconciled in modern Russia, at least for the people who lead that country. They think simultaneously within both paradigms.

Such ideological flexibility is also common in American science. You would agree, if you recall that face masks are simultaneously necessary and unnecessary (at least for the people who lead that country).

As you know, climatology had scientifically predicted a new ice age, then a global temperature increase, and now it predicts that the Earth climate will change. Despite the full change of directions (from an ice age to a global warming) the old predictions were wrong but correct. They were scientific because they were based on the same science.

The Russian science has abandoned some insignificant parts of the Marxist philosophy (such as the theory of classes), but not outright refuted them. The role of classes was supplanted by the role of cultures, Lenin was replaced with Dostoevsky, the future communist world was replaced with the Christian heaven, yet greedy American capitalists still remain as the source of all the world's disasters.

Likewise, the American science adopted the greenhouse theory created in the 18th century as the primary driver of climate change, abandoning insignificant parts of it that could disturb the implementation of computer models proving the Global Warming. Facts contradicting American science were removed from the scientific consideration.

As you can see, ideas that may seem illogical when judged by common sense can be entirely valid when viewed scientifically. Therefore, the US must study the Russian science to understand Russian politics.

The collapse and division of the Soviet Union is seen by the Russian science as the greatest historical tragedy. According to the Russian science, this splintering was an unnatural process forced by aggressive external capitalist forces like Soros, the American government, the British monarchy, and so on. As such, it would be scientifically correct to reverse this disintegration.

This means Russian science has proven that the scientific historic laws inevitably lead to the merger of the orthodox Christian nations brotherhood of the collapsed former Soviet Union and the collapsed former Russian Empire. It has also scientifically proven that this natural merger is now prevented by external Nazi force which are currently occupying Ukraine.

We can find analogies in the American science too. It considers the carbon-based industrialization as the greatest climate catastrophe. According to the American science, this human-made unnatural process was performed by aggressive capitalistic forces and must be reversed.

This means the American science has also proven that the scientific laws would inevitably lead to a climate normalization, which is currently obstructed by human-made carbon dioxide.

Fortunately, the American science, supported by entities like Soros, the US government, the British monarchy, and so on, has won over the world through money and persuasion. Germany, after failing twice to conquer Europe by military force, now leads Europe's deindustrialization using only peaceful scientific, economic, and political tools.

Of course, war is not an appropriate political tool in the modern era, at least when the intent isn’t to spread democracy to an undemocratic country. However, we must focus on aims and not the means if our goal is not to just condemn current Russian policy but comprehend its scientific character.

Putin's current attempt to address the fundamental problem of Russian science is painful for Russian and Ukrainian people. However, COVID-19 vaccine injections were also painful yet unavoidable, because American science has determined them necessary. The current American science concedes COVID-19 vaccines may have harmed or killed some people, but it was scientifically proven that these consequences are insignificant in comparison with the big vaccination goals.

Russian people are forced to partake in the war solution of the Russian scientific problem, much like Americans are forced into the Green Deal by scientifically approved laws. The Russian solution devastates their economy, yet the American science also disregarded economic factors when scientifically advising total lockdowns to stop the COVID-19 pandemic.

Да незачт! =) Рад, что оказалось полезным. На самом деле у меня был опыт работы редактором (с русскими текстами) и англ.-русс. переводчиком — решил попробовать скомбинировать, и оказалось, что кой-чего "руки помнят" ещё ,)

Должен признаться, что местами я нарочно усердствовал с заменами (но они все стилистически хорошие, клянус хвостом! а кое-где даже выправляли и уточняли смысл), нарочно, чтобы "предложить" Вам побольше вариантов, и чтобы Вам было из чего, при желании, выбирать.

Насчёт сокращения Вы очень правы! Я ещё сразу, только пробежав глазами, хотел написать нечто вроде: "Написано как будто для первоклашек. Понимая великую ценность многократного вдалбливания, чтобы пробиться в даже самые деревянные головы, хотел бы всё-таки предложить вдалбливать не по три-четыре раза, а хотя бы по полтора-два", — чессло, вот ровно такое и было ощущение! =) И, естественно, "голым глазом" видно, что черновик. Ну и норм, вполне общепринятый метод работы, между прочим.

Окей, тогда я и остаток Вам подгоню в ближайшие. Там немного осталось.

Доставляю, как и обещал:

One could argue the solution chosen by the Russian government is inappropriate, but the similarities cannot be denied. Of course, Americans may find it hard to believe the Russian scientific point of view is real and genuine. Yet their attitude toward the Russian science mirrors climate change deniers claim that the American science is a fraud.

The West has ignored the scientific works of Russian scientists and even the scientifically grounded program of Russian president. What would happen if some foreign country were to deride the Green New Deal as unscientific rubbish, denied Global Warming, called American science collective idiocy, and acted in ways leading to scientifically proven global problems that dangerously impact American lives and future generations of Americans?

Russian politicians have had the same feelings upon receiving highly insulting responses to their scientific warnings.

The Russian science is as important to the Russian government as the American science is to the US government. It takes precedence over the common sense. The unavoidable health damage to some insignificant people and inevitable economic harm to some greedy insignificant capitalists can be disregarded relative to the greater goals achieved. The US has demonstrated this repeatedly, and they try to globally propagate this scientific mindset.

The same mindset but based on the Russian science drives the ZZ-war.

Bear in mind I am not a scientist and have no intention to persuade you to anything. I am an engineer, who’s simply describing obvious facts easily obtainable through proper information gathering techniques. Of course, I am marginally better informed than the American CIA, which absurdly assumed Russia could seize Ukraine in two weeks. I wrote on day two that Russia had clearly lost already since it planned this war in an imaginary fiction world conjured by Russian science. However, that reveals nothing. My explanation was also banal and relied only on widely known facts. Clearly the CIA predictions were scientific and thus of no real value.

The psychology behind the ZZ-war is more interesting than the actual war events. Throughout, I have examined various psychological aspects in my blog posts, treating them as a research journal rather than a public textbook for general audience. The ZZ-war has yielded some non-trivial insights applicable to social engineering, an interest of mine. Naturally, an in-depth explanation for those who are alien to Russian culture, while possible, would require writing of a rather thick book — for which I unfortunately lack the time.

Most posts are also difficult to translate into other languages, except the posts marked as "work materials" ("Рабочие Материалы"), which contain information vectors that are built on quotations from open sources.

These posts contain the raw information largely unknown for Western readers, and sometimes even for most Ukrainians. They offer an interesting insight into the covert psychological forces at play on both sides of this conflict. Readers curious to understand what happens in the heads of the people involved in it can access these texts via automatic translation.

If you have questions, I can provide further information. However, I see no possibility left to resolve this crisis. It is too late for the US to do anything. Negotiations with Mr. Putin are unlikely since they were suggested by President Trump. Even if attempted, such negotiations would inevitably fail.

The US politicians are self-centered. They take for granted that all other people in the world have the same moral values as the US people, the same desires, the same life goals, and the same conceptions of right and wrong that is held by Americans.

When some peoples do not exhibit American mentalities, Americans endeavor to inform them of the Right Facts to reveal them the American Truth. Should any still interpret those Right Facts differently, Americans then aim to educate them on the Right Understanding of said facts, so they could understand the American Truth correctly.

Should this flawless approach fail to persuade some individuals who still disagree with the American Truth, US politicians will brand them the Root of Evil, I mean like Hollywood-esque evil masterminds who exist solely to perpetrate evil and serve as foils to the heroic narrative.

This innate, mostly unrecognized sense of absolute moral and intellectual superiority is deeply flawed. Not only foreign individuals but entire foreign cultures may have core principles wholly incompatible with American moral values, American desires, American life goals, and American conceptions of right and wrong.

It appears that modern American politicians know only two methods for addressing critical problems: they either just throw money into the problem at hand or try to purchase a solution.

The first approach was tried after the Soviet Union's collapse but has proven useless. American money provided to keep the Russian Federation alive has created Mr. Putin, who now leads the hybrid war against the US. American money provided to keep the Russian science alive has created the very same science that now guides Mr. Putin in the ZZ-war.

The second approach is based on the erroneous assumption that all people share American values, all people love American money, and thus all people can be persuaded to do something good for the US if they get a lot of American money in return.

Unfortunately, these assumptions do not work with Russia. The Russians sincerely and scientifically believe that American values are wrong, American money is dirty, and Americans are deceitful liars who do not hold on their promises. While the US may buy some Russian politicians, the Russian science cannot be sold.

There is another issue critically important for the future developments of the ZZ-war. Assuming the Russian science, as an entity cardinally different from American one, does really exist and plays a crucial role in defining Russian politics, we can deduce that the US is now unable to pull out from this conflict, as they happen to declare an existential war on Russia. Of course, it was a war declaration only in Russian science’s terms, and nobody from NATO’s side has noticed this critical event, but the Russians perceived it in their own specific way. And now this war just cannot be stopped as Russia may lose, but is unable to surrender. Russia’s president and a significant part of the populace stand ready and willing to commit even politically and economically suicidal actions.

You have already seen one such predicament. The US may fail to defeat the Climate Change, but they cannot stop applying the preventative measures. There's too much science involved in the process.

Скромно надеюсь, что Вы мне маякнёте, когда закончите первый проход: было бы крайне любопытно сравнить, с моей филологической т.з., как сместится общее впечатление от текста по сравнению с черновиком "нулевой" итерации. Что же касается содержательного наполнения, то скромно надеюсь, что я его осознал already, — но тем интереснее будет, если всё-таки всплывут какие-то новые моменты, детали, или оттенки значений.

С наилучшими, etc. =)

Очень редко бывает, что тексты пишутся с целью зашифровать в них некое спаслание; как правило, их пишут, чтобы нечто объяснить. =)

Да, теперь гораздо лучше; по крайней мере, кровь из глаз уже не брызжет при чтении. ,) Некоторые мелкие ошибочки ещё остались, типа

they only follows ...

или

Germany is stands ready to destroy its critical industries, but as it cannot stop applying the painful measures.

Но в целом они уже некритичны.

Я мог бы пробежаться ещё разок — теперь это уже гораздо легче, только proofreading и лёгкий copy editing, — или можно даже, поднявшись на уровень над copy editing, попытаться взглянуть на течение мысли, и нет ли в нём завихрений, отклонений и т.п., т.е. предпринять полноценную редактуру. Но это надо на свежую голову делать, освободив на это часок, как минимум.

И мне пока непонятно, как соотносятся "полная версия" (под чертой), и "краткая" сверху. У них разное предназначение, наверно?

С уважением, и проч.

Ага, т.е. мы целимся в сокращённый вариант, опираясь на промежуточный черновик; понятно.

Но по-моему, Германия ничуть не выбивается, выступая в обоих случаях в качестве примера. Это можно обозначить, введя допольнительный оборот типа "for example," и т.п., и даже в полном тексте второе упоминание Германии не выглядит неуместным: вполне приемлемо заканчивать статью "практическим" примером, иллюстрирующим общие расуждения текста.

Полный вариант убрал. Германию не выкинул, но использовал совершенно по-другому.

Ой, а Вы не могли бы мне его кинуть в личку? Было бы ценно для справки. А то у меня сохранился только нулевой — после copy editing.

Вопрос в том, что именно человек будет думать после прочтения.

Постараюсь ответить, перечитав на свежую голову. Посмотрим. =)

Как Вам будет удобнее. Сейчас брошу мыло — только умоляю хранить в строжайшей тайне; мне очень не хотелось бы оставлять identifiable следов, учитывая сколько я всего, вольно и невольно, наговорил в сетях, причём — ужасного с точки зрения самых разных категорий активистов. =)

Что касается воздействия на неподготовленного читателя, то я мог бы, до некоторой степени, его оценить; это одна из классических задач редактора. Можно ещё попробовать скормить какой-нибудь "нейронке" и попросить её сделать краткое изложение, и на какие мысли текст наводит — но тут можно как идеально попасть, так и зрелищно промахнуться, насколько я понимаю современное состояние предмета. В любом случае, трудно оценить, если текст претендует на social engineering, в смысле сублиминального внушения некий идей и образа мыслей. Тут только натурный эксперимент покажет, по-моему.

Спасибо. Я бы сказал, это один из лучших текстов в журнале
