This video is a detailed, research-based examination of the contemporary Western political polarization through the lens of Orthodox Christian metaphysics and classical philosophy.
The modern Left–Right divide is not primarily a contest over policy or economics; it is the external manifestation of a deeper metaphysical rupture. The political Right aligns with the principle of Order (limit, form, unity, hierarchy), while the Left aligns with Chaos (multiplicity, fluidity, potential, dissolution). In healthy reality, these principles exist in necessary tension, subordinated to a transcendent Center—the Logos, the divine Reason revealed in Christ.
When this vertical dimension is lost through secular materialism, the horizontal poles diverge into idolatry:

The Right, severed from the Logos, degenerates into tyranny, stasis, pharisaism, and megalothymia.
The Left, severed from the Logos, degenerates into anarchy, entropy, antinomianism, and the dictatorship of empathy.

Drawing on St. Maximus the Confessor, St. Gregory of Nyssa, Plato’s tripartite soul, the theology of the Eastern Orthodox Church, and the symbolic cosmology of Jonathan Pageau and Christopher Alexander, the presentation explores:

The analysis is not partisan advocacy. It is a metaphysical diagnosis: both poles, when autonomous from Christ, become destructive idols. The resolution is not horizontal compromise, but vertical transcendence—the integration of soul and society into the Logos.

This is a research explainer intended for serious viewers interested in Orthodox theology, classical philosophy, symbolic cosmology, and the deeper roots of political disorder.
