Yeah, fair enough, I guess having resources but not having organization makes sense.
"Russia is never as strong as they look. Russia is never as weak as they look"
I guess there is some merit to the argument of "decolonization" of Russia as a Federation/"Empire". Breaking it apart and going back to Novgorod (although Finland won't be happy with that), Moscovy and all the others. "Russian nationalism" is a misnomer. On the one hand, their power would be much smaller (good thing?), but on the other, with a smaller region to control, they'd, you know, have a better chance of actually controlling things and becoming more (I hate to say it) Democratic (in a Decembrists fashion). They may even become wealthy because of it (resources + smaller less diverse pop + smaller area to control = profit?)
I'm veering away from straight nationalism, I think. Even though I started my "dissident" journey as one (maybe as a "hipster nationalist" as you say). I see its problems now, more clearly than ever before. Nationalism exists when there's an outside enemy. European-style nationalism was a product of Napoleon's Empire and the enlightenment (one could argue it was brought about by Napoleon's failure to be sincere when he talked about "spreading the enlightenment"). Without an enemy, nationalism falters. And no one wants perpetual conflict, at least, not anymore (with the advent of the internet, mass-communiation and mass-migration).
I think Spencer and many on his side are grappling with this. He even went on a rant about Wifejack, saying "if this is the "right-wing", then I support White Genocide (TM)".
Hahaha "little Ukraine hiccup" is like the meme of "small Chinese conflict = 10 million dead".
