In "30,000 Years of Identity" Dominique Venner makes an interesting point about the French and Russian Revolutions. He argues that the path was paved for these revolutions by the kind of nationalization of the French kings and Peter the Great, because this kind of nationalization emasculated the aristocracies. On the other hand, Prussia survived communist revolution in the Freikorps wars because nationalization in Prussia had not historically entailed emasculation of the aristocracy.

I am looking forward to reading this book once I get it delivered in the beginning of September and will pay special attention to this part.

Excellent article. Accurate in every way. My only criticism is that the word "race" is not included, as if the author was too cautious to mention it. Being that RACE is the MAJOR issue with DEI (the second being gender) I believe that it should have been mentioned.

Hello, thank you for the praise. I did say "demographics" as the problem is broader than race, or at least it is how I see it. Through "demographics" I also include the people who have an obsession of having a specific 50% - 50% of male to female distribution in the workplace.
