The European political landscape, in its supposedly binary
opposition of "right" and "left," is nothing more than
a collective act of bad faith (mauvaise foi). Both sides,
in their refusal to make genuine choices and assume
existential responsibility, are political infants whose
immaturity stems from a fundamental flight from the reality
of their own being-in-the-world. This infantilism finds its
most cynical expression in the projection of guilt. Unable
to acknowledge that their current state of "decline"
(decheance) is a direct result of their own choices - made
in absolute freedom - uropean political forces - from
dogmatic leftists stuck in neo-Stalinist ontologies to the
so-called "right," lacking true conservatism - seek an "Other"
as a scapegoat. The Jew, the American from MAGA, the
Latin American conservative - all become objects of this
inauthentic gesture. This shared inadequacy lies in their
existence not as subjects of history, shaping their destiny,
but as objects projecting their internal emptiness and anxiety
onto an external enemy. Statements by responsible political
figures like Tusk, about the "threat" posed by Orban
or MAGA, are merely another act of this foolish spectacle.
The real problem is not them, but the very political incapacity
of the EU, its ontological insecurity. European "conservatism"
is a farce, attempting to preserve what does not belong
to it - the alien, abstract Protestant Christian shell - while
denying its own chthonic, pagan core. European "progressivism"
is equally hollow, as its internationalism has degenerated into
a new, sanctioned anti-Semitism and racial constructivism.
Thus, what we observe is not a clash of ideologies but
a collapse of common sense. It is not a conflict but
a collective flight from responsibility. While one side dreams
of racial self-destruction in the name of communist utopia,
the other longs for a return to a mythical heroic past that
never existed. Meanwhile, both sides, placed in power
by global oligarchic structures to simulate democracy, merely
play to politics. Therefore, the division of the West is not
a split between the USA and the EU. It is a fundamental divide
between the crude mechanical reality of the physical world
and the European childish pink illusion. Europe has chosen
itself as a "dollhouse" - a world that neither exists nor ever
did. Its citizens, this "depraved flock indulged in
permissiveness," participate in this masquerade of
hypocrisy because it allows them to remain in ignorance
of their own freedom and, consequently, of their
irresponsibility and immorality. Blaming others for this
is the height of inauthenticity. The USA, acting within
its existential projection, is not obliged to be a hostage
to this European bad faith, this collective madness of staged
competition between "globalists" and "ultra-globalists,"
born out of fear of their own freedom. The current crisis
is neither an American conspiracy nor a Russian threat.
It is the result of Europe's existential refusal of itself.
To recognize this is to take the first step toward
authenticity - a step that current European politics has
categorically proven itself incapable of taking.
