"Those who don’t want the Russian World get the Russian War" — this phrase by Alexander Dugin is, in essence, an ultra-condensed formula of the Kremlin’s imperial philosophy, in which any dissent, any unwillingness to be “part of the Russian” turns into aggression, war, invasion, terror, and occupation.
This formula is the essence of the “Russian World” and the ideological justification for genocide.
A Choice Without a Choice
Dugin is one of the mouthpieces of the so-called “Russian ideocracy.” His phrase is manipulative, as it’s based on a false choice: either you supposedly voluntarily — though in reality under coercion — accept the Russian World, or it comes to you with weapons, and you “willingly” bow before it. There is no choice.
Just as there is no concept of “free will” or “voluntarily” in the Russian World. Everything in it is based on coercion — through violence, war, threats, ultimatums, and pain.
Dugin’s statement is not just a threat — it is an ontological justification for the Kremlin’s aggression. There is no place in it for freedom, no law, no respect. There is only an ultimatum: accept it without resistance — or die.
This is perhaps why, under the “Russian World,” neither culture nor language has long been implied. The “Russian World” is a militarized concentration camp that turns its inmates into exporters of violence, endlessly loyal to the Kremlin. “Russian” here means submission, not identity. The “Russian World” is power built on coercion, not on sympathy, mutual respect, mutual benefit, friendship, or exchange. In this logic, Ukraine, Moldova, Lithuania, Poland, Kazakhstan, Finland — all those who chose not to be part of the “Russian” — automatically became the main enemies of the “Russian World.”
Where There Is the “Russian World” — There Is War
In reality, the “Russian World” is not something that comes instead of war — it comes through war. It is not built on dialogue; it is imposed with shells, torture chambers, and propaganda. As soon as a people rejects the role of “younger brother” or “historical province,” an operation begins: to “protect Russian-speakers,” “coreligionists,” or “the oppressed.” Paradoxically, this protection always ends with the very oppression that the Kremlin supposedly intended to prevent.
Thus, war becomes not a deviation from the norm but an integral part, a scaling model of the “Russian mission.” It is a fundamental rupture with the idea of peace as compromise. The “Russian World” a priori does not presume peaceful coexistence with anyone. It is a synonym for eternal war.
The Logic of Justifying Crimes
Dugin’s formula also perfectly fits into Moscow’s logic of justifying aggression: it’s not us who attacked — it’s you who provoked it by refusing to submit!
Anyone who does not “voluntarily” agree to become a colony automatically becomes a “Nazi,” “fascist,” “Russophobe,” “enemy of faith, spirituality, and traditional values.” Thus, any resistance is interpreted as aggression — and therefore justifies extermination, destruction, and genocide.
This literally mirrors the logic of National Socialist Germany, where refusal to join the Third Reich was interpreted as hostility deserving annihilation. No neutral countries — either you’re with us, or you won’t exist. Today, Moscow thinks exactly the same way.
Fascism in Its Purest Form
The essence of fascism is the suppression of individual will in favor of the dictates of total ideology. In this system, the state (empire) is above human rights, and its fake history is above the truth of the present. Dugin’s phrase is fascism not in form but in content. It is not about culture — it is about violence. Not about unity — but about eliminating otherness and difference.
The “Russian World” tolerates and accepts no “other,” and thus is impossible without violence and expansion. It cannot exist without an enemy, because its inner emptiness requires war. This is no accident — it’s a systemic need.
In Conclusion
When Dugin says, “Don’t want the Russian World — you’ll get the Russian War,” he’s not even threatening — he’s stating a fact, describing a mechanism of aggression. And this mechanism is already working: in Bucha, Mariupol, Grozny, Aleppo. It cannot be stopped with words about brotherhood, or profitable trade, or peaceful coexistence, or negotiations. Because for the aggressor, “peace” always means the victim’s defeat.
Therefore, resistance to the “Russian World” is not a political stance. It is a normal reaction, a survival instinct. And the “Russophobia” so condemned by the Kremlin is, in fact, nothing more than ordinary anti-fascism.
