Every occult base has been important in turning fear into a tool for mass manipulation. Let’s go back a bit to try to place some influencers who are well entrenched in the global right (Aleksandr Dugin, David Icke, Alex Jones, Steve Bannon, Michael Flynn, Peter Thiel, and Erik Prince), observing their philosophical-spiritual bases and where their ideas originated. The starting point and typical example for understanding how the conspiratorial synthesis associated with alternative spiritualities has acted to co-opt a considerable part of the right and Christians is the set of theses called QAnon.
First, it is necessary to understand that QAnon is a psychological warfare tool and, as such, has two main objectives:
1. Diminish the enemy by causing internal chaos, changing popular sentiment through propaganda;
2. Prepare the battlefield for kinetic warfare (actual war);
QAnon is the result of what we can identify as “Conspirituality,” a strange blend of the New Age movement and conspiracy theories. The fusion of these apparently paradoxical influences dates back to David Icke, who introduced a mixture of New Age and theosophical ideas into conventional conspiracy theories. There are others, but I’ll emphasize just a few, as the aim of this series of texts is to inform the networks of relationships on which the American traditionalist movement is relying, perhaps innocently, but which is extremely harmful to the Catholic Church.
QAnon is disinformation, deceiving those who suspect that the world around them may not be what it seems, but who may not be sufficiently informed about the true nature of the conspiracy to discern the deception. It is a deliberate attempt to cultivate a mistaken interpretation of the conspiracy to create a controlled opposition of unwitting dissidents who are ultimately recruited to inadvertently serve the conspiracy.
The reason this happens is that those dismayed by the direction our societies have taken tend to become desperate for change and too ready to lend their support to anyone who seems to represent their interests. They look to a leader’s words, not what he represents, making them easily deceived.

The tactic dates back at least to the Enlightenment and the fostering of the French and American Revolutions, by leading the masses to believe they were fighting “tyranny,” represented by the aristocracy and the Catholic Church, or King George III of England. The same tactic was employed by using the cause of communism to channel Russian people’s frustration against the state to provoke the Bolshevik Revolution of 1917. Similarly, the Nazis made use of the notorious “Protocols of the Elders of Zion,” which claimed that the Russian Revolution was the result of a worldwide Jewish-Masonic conspiracy to scare Germans and make them accept Hitler’s fascist dictatorship, which promised to prevent the same thing from happening to their country.
ALEKSANDR DUGIN AND HIS APPROACH TO THE RIGHT – HISTORICAL AND SPIRITUAL BASES
A Russian soldier inserts the symbol “Z” into a tank, an idea corresponding to the symbol contained on the cover of one of Francis Parker Yockey’s books, one of the authors who influenced Aleksandr Dugin. Is the enemy the West, the USA, or the Catholic Church?
From the 1960s and 1970s onwards, the “Conservative Revolution,” a revolutionary German intellectual movement opposing liberalism and communism, formed one of the bases of Third Position politics (fascism), viewing the United States and liberal capitalism as the main enemy, and seeking an alliance with the Soviet Union. This movement proposed an alliance and solidarity with communist revolutionaries in the Third World, including Asia and Latin America, and the Arab opponents of Israel. Its main theorist was FRANCIS PARKER YOCKEY (cover photo) who argued for a reapproach of the fascist right to communist Russia, becoming the fundamental platform of the Nouvelle Droite (new right).
While working as a prosecutor at the Nuremberg Trials in the 1940s, Yockey became sympathetic to the cause advocated by the Nazi defendants. Yockey was considered “neo-Strasserist,” due to his idea of an alliance between Left and Right and working with anti-Zionist communists, much like Dugin proposes today. Dugin’s multipolar thesis is nothing new, therefore.
By merging anti-Semitism with anti-Americanism, Yockey identified the United States, not Russia, as the main enemy of Europe, reversing the real situation of that period when communism sought to expand across the continent. Unlike most European and American neofascists who advocated an alliance with the United States against communism, Yockey spent the rest of his life trying to forge an alliance between the world forces of communism and the international network of the far right (which is only now seeming to be realized by the BRICS venture). Yockey believed that true right-wingers should help spread communism and Third World anti-colonial movements whenever possible, with the aim of weakening or overthrowing the United States. Yockey’s pro-Russia stance finally appeared in an amalgam that developed between GRECE’s Nouvelle Droite (Groupement de recherche et d’études pour la civilisation européenne), revolutionary nationalism, and the national-communitarianism of GRECE member Jean-François Thiriart, a name frequently cited by Dugin in his publications.
Thiriart met with important figures of the Fascist International, including Skorzeny, whom he visited frequently in Spain. It was up to Skorzeny to introduce Thiriart to Juan Perón, the deposed leader of Argentina, making them great friends. Perón defined the international position, known as Peronism, as a “Third Position” between capitalism and communism, a stance that became a precedent for the “Non-Aligned Movement.” The term “Third Position” was coined in Europe and its main precursors were National Bolshevism (Nazbol) and Strasserism. In the 1960s and 1970s, Thiriart advocated for a single European empire, including the Soviet Union. He supported the ideas of Muammar Gaddafi, of nationalist direct democracy, and the revolutionary strategies of Fidel Castro – here the formation of alliances becomes clearer and the influence of geopolitical channels and Neo-Reactionary groups, such as the New Resistance and its cult of Getulism, as well as alignment with the current Brazilian government.
Dugin was the true architect of the alternative right. His goal is part of the plan based on his occult philosophy, going back to the dream of the resurgence of Hyperborea, representing Russia and its Eurasian allies, against Atlantis, represented by America and NATO. Dugin, whose plan is to sow chaos whenever possible to undermine Western hegemony, saw an opportunity to exploit America’s volatile racial division. This is how Dugin arrived at the diversity of strategies for different countries in Foundations of Geopolitics on how to combat American influence or gain allies, prescribing the need for Russian special services and their allies to “provoke all forms of instability and separatism within the borders of the United States.” As a protege of Raymond Abellio’s student, Jean Parvulesco, Dugin was also a close friend of Gladio operative Claudio Mutti, who joined the Young Europe (originally inspired by the Young Italy movement of Freemason leaders Mazzini and Garibaldi) of GRECE member Jean-François Thiriart. Mutti was also a close friend of Luc Jouret, who founded the Solar Temple cult and was also appointed emir in the notorious Murabitun Movement, a crypto-Masonic organization founded by a Scottish convert to Islam named Ian Dallas, also known as Sheikh Abdalqadir al-Murabit, and founder of the World Murabitun Movement, a Sufi movement.
Dugin also works closely with Christian Bouchet, a high initiate of Memphis-Misraim, who claimed to be the head of the OTO (Ordo Templi Orientis) in France, an occult organization created by Theodore Reuss and reformulated by Aleister Crowley. Bouchet was described as “one of the main promoters of satanic thought in France,” having written a doctoral thesis in anthropology at the University Paris Diderot on Crowley. Dugin is also associated with Kerry Bolton, founder of the satanic Black Order and international distributor of the Order of Nine Angles (O9A), based in England.
Inspired by his mentors Jean Parvulesco and Raymond Abellio, Dugin’s plan to hasten the End Times expands the aspirations of the artificial Priory of Sion, the reign of Nostradamus’s Great Monarch, to be fulfilled with the “Consecration of Russia” prophesied in the Third Secret of Fatima. Stephan Chalandon and Philip Coppens detail what links Abellio and Parvulesco’s synarchism, the Three Secrets of Fatima, and their own vision for Russia’s future, describing them as New Age adherents building “an Age of Aquarius.” Coppens is a Belgian author who focused on areas of fringe science and alternative history and connections between UFO cults and the right. Coppens was featured in Nexus, Atlantis Rising, and New Dawn magazines and appeared in many episodes of the Ancient Aliens series on the History Channel. Bolton praised Dugin’s prescription for a “multipolar” world in an article for New Dawn magazine, titled “Putin, Russia, & the Rise of a New Era.” New Dawn, which calls itself “The most unusual magazine in the world,” focuses on New Age topics, alternative medicines, extraterrestrials, and “alternative news and views on global trends and world affairs.” The “About” page features endorsements from Philip K. Dick, Jose Argüelles, and Dugin himself, who described the magazine as: “one of the best sources of realistic information about the state of things in our world as it approaches its inevitable and predicted end.” Referring to Nostradamus’s prophecy, Bolton notes that a commentator for New Dawn magazine wrote: “Putin’s rise had mystical implications that could impact the world in a memorable way: Putin’s appointment as prime minister on August 9, 1999, occurred during the week of the solar eclipse and planetary alignment of the Grand Cross, ‘a highly auspicious astrological event… traditionally considered the end of an era.'”
Part II continues until it reaches Erick Prince, then we will begin the third part. It was necessary to split the second part because of the amount of information about the involved characters.
