In my article on chaga nationalism, I discussed the spiritual dangers of allowing a purely negative and destructive approach to politics to take hold in the dissident’s heart. I discussed the danger of giving in to the urge to destroy without tempering it with a vision to create; a positive vision of victory towards which the dissident strives and orients himself. (more…)
