To touch on a couple good comments - The second half of the video I talk about the counter arguments to my own evidence. I’m aware there are people who disagree with the content I post. Secondly, the video is meant more as an inside look into my analytics compared to what you’re seeing in the comments. The bots aren’t a worry for me, it’s just annoying because people who actually disagree with my videos or have good criticisms get outshined by robots. That’s all 👍🏼
I agree. If I ask a question bots answer and put whatever it thinks looks good. Idc either way. I know who you are, and I know you are real. Thank you for what you share. Sincerely, an American.(Not a bot😂)
Dude just because they point out that the Ukranians wear a lot of nazi shit doesn't mean they're bots. I followed your channel because you fought alongside the Kurdish but since you have no problem fighting alongside nazi's i'm not sure why i'm still here.

Check the leaked docs that have been all over the news. Especially about Fabrika and the Russian campaign to influence public opinion. It's real, and you're right
Good, imagine if they actually did everything properly. In words of one of ukrainian troops from early months of war: thank god russians are fucking stupid
@@callsignjoker2686 It's funny because the docs that show that have been proven to have been doctored by Russia and then "re-leaked". Their hybrid-warfare strat is at work. Look at the originals and it isn't like that.
I think you hit the nail on the head. Typically, I just hit the thumbs up and move on, and only comment if I disagree with something. I also don't usually read the comments on a lot of content I watch for this exact reason. It can be overwhelmingly negative at times. Personally, I like what you are doing. It's nice to see the mundane and boring side of combat as well as the parts that go boom. A lot of channels just show the flashy parts without the backstory. Here you can see it all. Please don't stop.

Hey man! I don't remeber If I ever commented on your yt channel. But I wanted to say thanks for coming to Ukraine. And to all who helped and keep helping. At the beginning I panicked and thought that we would lose within 2-3 month. And the news of people coming to fight for Ukraine really encouraged me to stay strong, volontiere and finally joining the army. Just wanted to say thank you. Keep up the good work. I hope we will meet someday and I buy you a drink. ;-)
Good luck to you and your fellow countrymen! With some luck the Russian economy will have collapsed by the end of summer, don't think it can keep up till next year with the cost being inflicted. They are already rolling out the T-55 to replace their depleted artillery. Hang on and keep avoiding the harmful stuff till then. The little twirp in the Kremlin has been planning this for the whole time and I'm sorry to have given him and his gang of creeps the benefit of the doubt. Only now it has become clear that his mad rantings were not just local politics, but the nutter really planned this for decades. I'm aware that a certain amount of hatred is useful, but I'd like to ask to keep to the Geneva convention as much as you can muster. Ukraine must keep the moral high ground in this conflict and not devolve in the same barbarism. So far you all managed to do a pretty decent job at that despite the many provocations. Slava Ukraina!

That’s a fact!! I grew up with Ataris, Nintendos and Sagas as video game systems unfortunately.. Computers weren’t ish.. Just a unimpressive time really! But watching all these new systems coming out for the past 4 decades now, just absolutely blows my mind to think about!! Then to imagine what a kid born today would have to work with by the time they are my age. I honestly don’t even believe I could wrap my mind around it frankly!!… 🤷🏻♂️ Impressive is a understatement to say the least. Not to mention all the other tech that’s come out that’s unrelated to gaming too. It’s both an incredible yet very scary time we currently live in!!
What's sad is most of it isn't even AI. It's still people in Russia and more recently 3rd world countries who are paid to manually make these comments.
Russian here. You are right, those troll farms exist for quite a while and is well known within certain groups, channels, etc. They try to shape the perception about the war and other events mostly in social media groups/communities such as vk, telegram, youtube. There was even a dedicated website that tracked their behavior and showed their profiles info. The best way is just ignore them and do not start a discussion. And yeah, they get paid for that shit. There is even a meme - 15 rubles for comment.
Thankfully the Russo-Nazi bots have NO effect on the direction of the war or the support because those with sense and those who are involved with the war don't pay them any attention. They're just consuming Russian electricity and internet bandwidth for NO gains.
Keep doing your thing man -- End of the day some people in your channel are supporting you, not always necessarily your content, or what your content can be about. 👍👍
There’s always Russian bots especially on videos related to anything Ukraine. It’s not surprising that they are on this channel given it’s content. I just ignore them because RUclips doesn’t really do a good job of dealing with them.
Not just Ukraine, it's all over youtube on mainly news/political video's.What's really wild is when you get a video about China that triggers their bots, seeing as RUclips is blocked in China. They're extremely unsophisticated compared to the Russians and it's hilarious.
You will be surprised, but the audience of RUclips in Russia, according to various sources, is from 50 to 100 million people. Ordinary people. They also write comments, for example, me. And there are a lot of bots and trolls from all sides on any acute socio-political topic.
Wow 608k subs now congrats man 🎉🎉 Iv been around since about 35k and I’m not surprised at all your channel has grown your demeanor is on point your goal is clear fantastic job. Stay humble Stay Safe
What you are doing is nothing but extraordinary. Bots are a pain but pathetic too, proof of cowardice at it's highest. Keep up the good fight. You and your squad are amazing humans fighting for freedom against the evil empire.
Honestly, I have seen couple videos and I'm pretty sure you are right. Comment section is just weird, there's just too many Russia apologist or pro Russian comments. I haven't really seen this in other channels that discuss war. There's especially a lot of "apologist" comments, aka. something that mitigates or minimizes what Russia is doing. Which is more subtle but effective since you are not outright pro Russia. Or there's tons of focus on those "poor Russian soldiers", I mean sure, war is horrible and it's sad what's happening, but it's just bit strange to focus especially on that when they are waging aggressive war against Ukraine.
1st and also that sucks like I mean that is just horrible and people do fall for it the fake websites good thing is civ dev wants us to be careful and is concerned❤❤ all my support goes to you man!!!❤❤
All BS aside, I think that despite you doing what you do and where you are, having a channel for yourself in which you can speak out loud taking 0 BS from anyone is great. People who have to endure different kinds of hardcore emotions need this kind of things. It´s almost like terapy.
The great mother Russia 🇷🇺 is………SADLY FAILING my friend . They wrote a check their ass can’t cash . They are failing miserably to Ukraine imagine if nato actually went in which I wish would happen bc I’m tired of seeing my Ukrainian brothers dying so keep doing what you are doing civ div slava Ukraine 🇺🇦
Things that you did for Ukraine is amazing, that's make flammable ruzzians asses, in real life as well, and makes people highly motivated to support you 🇺🇦 Glad that you are here ❤
This has been going on for the last 15 years, but has escalated the last 5 years. Wish that there is research about this and that it is possible to develop some tool to block trolls. Until this is done, the larger sites must take greater responsibility. Slava Ukraini
100% The Ruzzbots are here, I find it funny how pathetic they are especially in the Funker live stream chat. Good luck in the next round of conscription Ruzzbots. Slava Ukraine
I agree. Videos about the war always have really weird comment sections. Unnatural ways of talking, lots of emojis, and really out there conspiratorial opinions that I have no clue how they come up with.
Telltale sign I've learned it's a bot is the laughing emojis. I think they get paid by the emoji too. Half the time the comment isn't even remotely funny, but always ends like this 🤣🤣🤣🤣
If the comments are full of Russian bots it means you're doing well.... Also, you're doing the lords work sir.... may you and your squad mates make it home safely. Stay safe boys, US Army Veteran...
As I see it, here from Czech Rep., there really are people that really think things like ,, It´s all made up. ", and often just comment stuff with their, sometimes wrong, belief that It´s fr all just a scam for money or whatever they think, a lot of times even sharing links to these videos, making their own propaganda.. Crazy times we live in
I think the bots are a low cost attempt to nudge the opinions of viewers in the west (esp the U.S.) in hopes of reducing support for Ukraine if Russia manages to create a prolonged stand-off. i imagine the bots in the comments have less impact on then algorithm if they have not "viewed" the entire video. Another possible sign of bots is they don't seem to be sophisticated enough to intelligently reply to any well-articulated challenge to their comments.
Thank you for such an informative video. I generally don’t comment on YT vids, unless I have something to say. I think you do an amazing job. With so much Russian disinformation, channels like CivDiv are critically important to allow people to see what is truly happening in Ukraine right now. My heart aches for everyone living in Ukraine, and to see people like yourself putting yourself in harms way to correct a wrong of such egregious proportions, reinstates my faith in people. I wish Ukraine all the very best while they eradicate the vermin of Putins amateurs.
To touch on a couple good comments -

Don’t just ignore them, report them. RUclips isn’t super fast with banning spam accounts but at least it will delete the spam comment.

The great mother Russia 🇷🇺 is………SADLY FAILING my friend . They wrote a check their ass can’t cash . They are failing miserably to Ukraine imagine if nato actually went in which I wish would happen bc I’m tired of seeing my Ukrainian brothers dying so keep doing what you are doing civ div slava Ukraine 🇺🇦
Things that you did for Ukraine is amazing, that's make flammable ruzzians asses, in real life as well, and makes people highly motivated to support you 🇺🇦
Glad that you are here ❤
I was wondering why some of the comments were absolutely braindead and sounded like they were written by children. Thanks for looking into this man.
Well, some of them are genuine, sadly enough.
@Walton Simons Heh very true. Some of them might be able to be attributed to intoxication, but only so many.
I've made quite a bit of edits about the Ukraine military, so this is very relatable
fancy seeing you here! I love your edits, they deserve way more attention!
This has been going on for the last 15 years, but has escalated the last 5 years. Wish that there is research about this and that it is possible to develop some tool to block trolls. Until this is done, the larger sites must take greater responsibility. Slava Ukraini
Great job CivDiv💪💪 keep up the good work bro.
100% The Ruzzbots are here, I find it funny how pathetic they are especially in the Funker live stream chat. Good luck in the next round of conscription Ruzzbots. Slava Ukraine
Your good here guy! Love from Alaska!
Mr. Civ Div, you are doing great job. We know what we fight for.
Thank you! With love from ukrainians.
Super important video in the midst of 5th generation warfare. Keep up the good journalism and work, mate.
Don't let them bring you down!
I’m surprised they took so long to get you. Your truth and being a RUclipsr it a threat to them. Keep the truth going there is nothing more powerful.
You and WillyOAM both. The bots are noticeable.
That sucks bro just ignore em
I support my legs because my legs support me. And I also hope you Ukraine will prevail❤❤
*Russian bot: Airsoft Call of Duty*
Meanwhile russian dead are found equipped with litteral Airsoft gear
🤣🤣🤣
I agree. Videos about the war always have really weird comment sections. Unnatural ways of talking, lots of emojis, and really out there conspiratorial opinions that I have no clue how they come up with.
I think they finger they butts and eat that to get into the fever.
Ah the classic westerner's argument: "Anyone who disagrees with me is a bot."
И что?
>Didn't watch the video
>Acts like a bot
There definitely is they just don't want to hear the truth
Thats good,They leave comments,Make you famous.
I don't normally comment. I think you're doing a good thing. Keep it up.
@Civ Div
This is all because you're doing GOOD WORK, and this makes them mad.
Telltale sign I've learned it's a bot is the laughing emojis. I think they get paid by the emoji too. Half the time the comment isn't even remotely funny, but always ends like this 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Thank u very much for what u do. GOD Bless u
Love what you do!
Good job acknowledging information warfare including unofficial videos. Way to go. Slava Ukraine.
Gunner! Sabot! Russian Bots!
ON THE WAY!!!
AGAIN AGAIN AGAIN!!
I don't often comment, but I like and am subscribed. Your content and your passion is impressive!
If the comments are full of Russian bots it means you're doing well.... Also, you're doing the lords work sir.... may you and your squad mates make it home safely.
Stay safe boys,
US Army Veteran...
That's so true - usually I just hit like and go. Thanks for your service!
"Omg someone disagrees with me! Bots!"
Are you dumb or what? They are saying that he is wearing ss insignia
Why would a Norwegian support Russia?
guess u didnt watch the video
Why almost everytime when username is like nationalistsometing they are fking stupid
Russian bots working overtime 😂
I am a russian, and I am happy that you protect freedom of ukranian people and fight against dictator, who is torturing my country.
Stay safe.

As I see it, here from Czech Rep., there really are people that really think things like ,, It´s all made up. ", and often just comment stuff with their, sometimes wrong, belief that It´s fr all just a scam for money or whatever they think, a lot of times even sharing links to these videos, making their own propaganda.. Crazy times we live in
I think the bots are a low cost attempt to nudge the opinions of viewers in the west (esp the U.S.) in hopes of reducing support for Ukraine if Russia manages to create a prolonged stand-off.
i imagine the bots in the comments have less impact on then algorithm if they have not "viewed" the entire video. Another possible sign of bots is they don't seem to be sophisticated enough to intelligently reply to any well-articulated challenge to their comments.
Spot on sir
Truth is, I never looked past my comment if I leave one, had I known I could have been trolling them! Stay real, keep your gear clean and rock on!
there is 90% bots on youtube.
Yep, agree with you.
This goes pretty well with Perun's recent video
Thank you for saying it
For Ukraine 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦
Thank you for such an informative video. I generally don’t comment on YT vids, unless I have something to say. I think you do an amazing job. With so much Russian disinformation, channels like CivDiv are critically important to allow people to see what is truly happening in Ukraine right now. My heart aches for everyone living in Ukraine, and to see people like yourself putting yourself in harms way to correct a wrong of such egregious proportions, reinstates my faith in people. I wish Ukraine all the very best while they eradicate the vermin of Putins amateurs.
Thanks!
For kicking arse!
Man thank you so much!
We support you CivDiv. I report russian bot accounts on social media and encourage others to do the same. Cheers bro!
They're easy to spot because everything they say is nonsensical, in both English or Russian
Thank you for what you do and stay safe.
POV: You are looking for one
Got me
