They are the product of history and not of philosophy.
Hmm...
When it comes to a nation and its culture it is neither history nor philosophy that matter the most. In each and every case it is the lifestyle that is the most important factor.
Ye shall know them by their fruits, and all that.
The most degrading and most corrupting thing about any society is its lifestyle. When you don't have a moral compass, strong standards, and you go abroad, then
you don't fall to the the level of a nations philosophy - you fall to their level of lifestyle.
From the moral point of view, the West with its idolatry of money and sexual perversion is equally repulsive are Russia's kleptocratic corruption and violence.* That's why it is so vital that Poland - the last bastion of true Latin civilization - thrives and becomes stronger. We have barbarians to the East and barbarians to the West. There are remains of the old value-based Western civilisation still in between, in the so-called
Intermarium area, and this "in-between" sphere must fall under Poland's influence. Otherwise civilisation dies and we'll be left with the choice between the perverted "West" and the Chinese human hive (with local variations).
* - of course, as in every case, personal preferences play a huge part here; some people (including my humble self) are inclined to believe that Russia will sooner find her way out of corruption and violence than the West from perversion and greed, but variance of opinions here is quite broad.
