ANALYSIS โย Russian leader Vladimir Putin invoked Jesus, Satan and transsexualism in a Kremlin ceremony on September 30 where he illegally declared parts of Ukraine as Russian territory.
This followed the sham annexation referendums in Russian-occupied lands in Ukraine. (RELATED: Ukraine Applies for NATO Membership as Putin Annexes 4 Territories)
In his speech Putin said:ย โThey [the West] are moving toward open satanism,โ noting accurately that Western elites were teaching โsexual deviationโ to children, encouraging them to change their gender.
He added: โWe're fighting for historical Russia, to protect our children and grandchildren from this experiment to change their souls.โ
Putin cited the Bible to slam Western gender policies: โThose poisonous fruits have become visible, not only to people in Russia but also many in the West.โ
Indeed, I too have increasing difficulty describing the insane gender ideology targeting our children and infecting our society as anything but demonic or satanic. (RELATED: Biden State Department's โRadical Gender Imperialism' Targets Friends and Allies)
Putin is not wrong.
While I have strongly condemned Putin's unprovoked war of conquest against Ukraine, support arming Ukraine to the hilt and see Putin's new religious messianism as opportunistic and calculated, his description of our Western elites and our increasingly depraved โsatanic' culture is spot on.

It's a shame that Putin is saying this truth the loudest.
Putinย notedย that the West has moved โto a radical denial of moral norms, religion, and family โฆโ adding:
The dictatorship of the Western elites is directed against all societies, including the peoples of the Western countries themselves. This is a challenge to all. This is a complete denial of humanity, the overthrow of faith and traditional values. Indeed, the suppression of freedom itself has taken on the features of a religion: outright Satanism.
Putin continued:
Do we really want, here, in our country, in Russia, instead of โmum' and โdad', to have โparent No. 1', โparent No. 2', โNo. 3'? Have they gone completely insane? Do we really want โฆ it drilled into children in our schools โฆ that there are supposedly genders besides women and men, and [children to be] offered the chance to undergo sex change operations? โฆ We have a different future, our own future.
Of course, the left had a field day with Putin's speech, comparing it to so-called MAGA rhetoric.
As Newsweekย reported:
In response to Putin's speech, comparisons to the GOP arrived on social media, with some pointing out similarities in theย rhetoricย of prominent allies of former Presidentย Donald Trump, such as his former adviserย Steve Bannonย and Representativeย Marjorie Taylor Greeneย of Georgia.
โYou know who else talks about Satanism besides Putin? Our American werewolf,โ writer Nina Burleighย tweeted, alongside a photo of Bannon.
โPutin has accused the Biden administration of โSatanism,โย tweetedย John Schwartz, a journalism professor at the University of Texas at Austin. โWho does he think he is, Marjorie Taylor Greene?โ
Then there are the more serious leftist critiquesย notedย by Newsweek:
University of Pennsylvania religious studies professor Anthea Butler, author of the bookย White Evangelical Racism, said during a Yale University conference on Christian nationalism that โPutin's rhetoric about the West abandoning religion and embracing Satanism echoes U.S. religious right figures (who have long admired Putin),โ according to aย tweetย from writer Peter Montgomery.
While in no way defending Putin, or his outrageous war in Ukraine, I can't deny that in his comments about the depraved West, he is not wrong.
In an increasingly irreligious and atheistic society, denying that evil, or Satan exists, is the biggest coup Satan can accomplish.ย
At least Putin is loudly calling us out about it.ย ALD

There is the argument; โhow does the Union justify its actions compared to Russian goal of โdefeating evilโ?
Game onโฆ
I canโt deny some of what Putin says about the West Americanโs values is true but not under true Mega Republican Rule itโs under Democrats and Globalistโs along with Rhinos in the Republican Party we all know who they are the true evil oneโs. They started to change American values it all started with Democrats and Obama being in office for 8 yearโs he started the erosion of American values then after him Clintonโs 8 yearโs in office continued the destruction of American Valueโs, Trumps 4 yearโs in office slowed down the evils and called them out in the open to be seen for what they are a Evil Empire witch is why they must Destroy Mr Trump as we continue to see this happen, And for the record the January 6, Demonstration thatโs all it was stop the Lieโs if it was a true Insurrection Washington would have burned to the ground on that day. Mr Trump and 76 Million Mega Republicans are the new Defenderโs of Truth and Accountability in America. As for Democrats who now work with Globalistโs and the so called New World Order witch is nothing short for Satin in hiding is what we see now from Biden also itโs the so called Mega Party true Americans they are the only thing standing in the way of Evilโs total destruction of the world itโs always been there Satinโs plan and with the help of the of Globalistโs and Democratโs brain washing everything and everyone Democrats Evil plan continues day by day with the Destruction of Churches removing all references of God in America and the Democrats pushing there Evil Agenda on Tv and Social Media the Radicalโs on the left think they will win this war but as Ukraine has showed us never under estimate the little guys the under dog they will destroy the Evil in the end so it was written so let it be Done.
What Putin has said about American government, education, and culture is spot on, as it should be to anyone with a functioning brain. How much more clear does it have to be before Democrats begin to see it for themselves? If the Dems can’t be stopped politically, it will be necessary to take stronger measures. We might have to cull an entire generation of college students and the teachers who have indoctrinated them.
