Please note, folks - this video seems to be a general assessment of whether the video and individual are likely to be real or not. This video lacks detailed or topical information on the individual in question - no referenced military history, no disciplinary record, etc. Ryan, it might make for a more interesting video if any concrete information becomes available. ....also, the military's handling of the covid vaccine and mandated injections was a mess. Significant mishandling of religious exceptions, some (rare) mistreatment and jailing of soldiers in otherwise good standing. In any event, if this guy is real and is saying what he thinks there's a lot wrong with his logic lol Russia is not better in terms of personal freedom🤦♂️
@ryan Macbeth you any thoughts on that Russian channel you covered a while ago at that event who touched the tank as I saw his most recent video seems to be talking a little about you
@RyanMcBethProgramming I don't know if you had heard but thousands of people were kicked out of the military for refusing to take the vaccine most were people who had done nothing wrong before

@@thatguy7683 well in Russia he won't even get a false freedom. He'll be spied on, his movements very limited and restricted, and if he speaks out about it he'll go to jail while he waits for deportation. And they'll take his stuff and money. It's already happened to Americans that moved there and they didn't even fight. That guy will likely be used in a human wave type frontal assault. Russian commanders don't value their own troops, but they're happy to send someone else first.
Ah yes, the USMC, an organization renowned for its personal freedoms and individual liberties. Then leaving for greener, freer pastures of *checks notes* the Russian military.
You must give these men their credit and their due.They chose a side and they wanted to fight. So they went and fought. Most people sit on the sidelines and cheer a team, but the outcome in truth doesn't really affect them. They had the will to become your enemy. How many people in reality do that.
@@ImperialMexicancontraguerrila Civilians can have a huge impact on the front aswell, not just frontline troops. Main example would be fundraising projects to arm the troops.
@@ImperialMexicancontraguerrila So, with the same logic, you'd applaud the people who picked a side and went and fought for the Nazis as well during WW2? Not trying to pick a fight or anything. Just trying to understand your way of thinking.
There were bunch of Finns who left for the "socialist utopia of Soviet Union", only to find themselves all in a train to Siberia. There will always be naive people who think the grass is greener on the other side of the fence ... only to find too late they were wrong.
@@Nuinwing It’s like the running joke in the TV show Community, where one of the characters (Britta) becomes associated with failure. Although I’ll admit an entire country adopting the joke of an entire country fucking up is much more impressive than a TV show’s ongoing gag. When I was a kid (in America), we told Polack jokes. We told lots of different racist/nationality jokes because America is the land of equality, but the Polacks were all associated with being dumb. “How many Polacks does it take to screw in a lightbulb? Three. One to climb up the ladder and two to turn the ladder.” But we never turned the word Polack or the name of the country into a verb or descriptor for being dumb or doing something dumb. I remember taking a Scandinavian vacation and hearing the same joke in Norway and Sweden, the only difference being that the nationalities were switched. In Sweden: Did you hear about the Swedish psychopath that escaped from the insane asylum? They eventually found him teaching school in Norway. And vice versa in Norway. National rivalry jokes are as old as the day is long. In the U.S. we also have regional and state rivalry jokes (including a lot of jokes about Texas). But the jokes haven’t entered the vocabulary like Russian jokes have entered the Finnish language. Bravo to the Finns. But the real credit goes to Russia for being so ryssiä. 😂
If they let him back into the us he's going to serve prison time though it's more likely that his citizenship will of been revoked and I can imagine that russian passports are receiving many visas these days
@@elvinsmiththe GenZ troll pretends to be working with the army or Air Force, to recruit American soldiers. Russia had an easier time recruiting Africans to fight for him in Ukraine but Russia targets U.S soldiers to use them for DOD leaks. Look up a kid named Matt Dehart. He got wrapped up in this before it became a topic on RUclips. He was trolled by recruiters who promised him asylum thru the Russian Embassy if he hacked the US government and leaked fake data.

Obligatory Reagan Soviet Joke: An American and a Russian are talking about their countries. The American starts to brag; "In my country, I can walk into the Oval Office, slam my fist on the president's desk, and say "Mr. President, I don't like the way you're running this country!" The russian appears unimpressed and says "We can do that in my country." The American says "Really?" Mhm." says the Russian. "I can walk right into the Kremlin, slam my fist on Gorbachev's desk and say "I don't like the way President Reagan is running his country."
Heres a better one "I have to admit, I'm always so impressed by Soviet propaganda. You really know how to get people worked up," the CIA agent says. "Thank you," the KGB says. "We do our best but truly, it's nothing compared to American propaganda. Your people believe everything your state media tells them." The CIA agent drops his drink in shock and disgust. "Thank you friend, but you must be confused... There's no propaganda in America."
Seriously? Directly to the president's office? Some have already gone to the Capitol, believing in freedom. Now their lives are trampled underfoot. And the main provocateur, who has connections with the Democratic Party, is at large. No one even thinks about arresting him. This is truly freedom. The American government decides freely - I will arrest these, but not these.
The 5 years in prison is quite a clue. “A jobless mercenary who has been disowned by his father and a former National Front member have been labelled an 'absolute disgrace' after becoming the first two British men known to be fighting for Russia in Ukraine. Ben Stimson, 48, posted a video on social media this weekend of him standing in front of a Russian flag wearing military fatigues alongside Aiden Minnis, 37, saying: 'Yes, yes, I'm back in Russia, I'm back in uniform.' The traitor has posted a number of videos online since he fled to Donetsk in February to join Putin's marauding forces, including sickening footage released last night which showed frontline soldiers walking past two dead bodies. In one of his videos, he declares: 'Every man takes his choice... a lot of us, the foreign volunteers, have chosen to come over to this side, to the Russian side.' Stimson, who had previously been jailed for assisting pro-Russian militia forces in the Donbass region in 2015, is currently fighting Ukrainian soldiers with the Pyatnashka brigade. His 'best British friend in the Russian army' Minnis is a former drug addict and convicted thug from Chippenham, who calls himself a 'Z Patriot' and a 'sapper in the Russian army'. The Wiltshire man has also been active on social media recently, championing Putin, hailing the Russian tyrant as 'still the greatest politician on earth' in one of his posts. Former British Army commander Colonel Richard Kemp furiously called for the pair to be arrested, raging: 'These two are an absolute disgrace and are traitors who upon their return to the UK should be arrested and jailed.' “ So just to summarise, he was a vagrant, homeless, a criminal, a heiron addict and a member of a far right movement and was disowned by his own family. What exactly did he have for Britain to take from him?
He might say, Britain took his freedom, his dignity, and his future away, but I'm sure the courts can demonstrate that he gave all those away for the low low price of becoming an influencer for the Russian military.
How's he a traitor. How is fighting ukriane, a nation he has no obligation to make him a traitor. If he wanted to go out and fight against his country then yeah but I doubt this bloke would
@@MMuraseofSandvichbecause he's fighting for Russia, a nation that does everything it can to oppose British interests, meddle in British politics, attack British infrastructure, and threaten British security.
"I was incredibly stupid and they kicked me out of both the marines and the police academy, so now I joined the Russians where I'm free to be as stupid as possible" Russian propaganda at its finest

@@GasparGa nah, most smart ones immigrated to Germany or usa, that's why there is a brain drain in Russia, Dr. Mike was actually russian and so was his father
As someone who's served in both the National Guard and regular Army, this guy feels like a reservist, not someone on fulltime active duty. That explains him trying to get a job as at a police department while in the Marines.
exactly. cops will give you time off for military, reservist etc but i think thats it, you cant full time at both, plus as the same time, he may have been trying to cover his bases as i would say he was maybe on the way out for not just the vax refusal, he stinks of having a problem from the day he first polished his boots. i dont think hes in the 70% general discharge category and its maybe why he 'lost' his seat. im wondering if he has warrants now...
If he even served in the Corps. Those boot camp photos are taken in the first phase. It is no guarantee that he didn’t “bilge” out in the second or third phase.
I saw LAPD recruiting ads at Camp Pendleton and the process takes several months. I wouldn’t be surprised if the guy started the process prior to discharge or immediately after (ie. send in his application and resume) but when the issue of his discharge came up he got dropped. I also wouldn’t be surprised if they did a social media check too.
@@SEAZNDragon yep ive seen it here in canada as well, saw a guy who dated a good friend of mine get rejected because most of his pics on FB were of him being a full on ammosexual, shooting at things with images taped to them, and a ton of gun show pics of him posing very much in a glorified manner, as someone with a less than mature outlook at guns (my family has over a dozen rifles etc but we dont try to look like we are hot for tactical weapons etc). especially now with a few officers on the wrong side of the law (its come out in the media where i am that local cops were heavily involved in trafficking as well as some have gone to jail for sex crimes while on duty, etc. big effort to clean up their image.
Russia is a society where no freedom is imposed upon, especially the freedom to impose on the freedom of others. It's why libertarians like Russia so much and people who think that Russia is more free always imagine that it's themselves imposing on others freedom instead of the other way around.
PSA: Remember there was an American soldier stationed in South Korea who fled to North Korea just to get away from the military police. Here, we the "locals" would rather throw ourselves off a bridge than throw ourselves across the demarcation line. One person can be dumb beyond comprehension and it does not change the grand scheme of things.
Joseph Dresnok is probably the guy you're thinking of. He died in 2017, and was one of 7 total defecting US soldiers in the Korean War. You can see a documentary about him on RUclips called "Crossing the Line". It's a weird story, and not a very happy one.
@@takeshikovacs02 This was the young man in the Army recently who was being sent back to the states to be disciplinary separated from service. He jumped the border and was of course detained by the North Koreans. Now normally when something like that happens NK makes propaganda out of it. However shortly thereafter he was repatriated without fanfare. Apparently he was such a jerk even the North Koreans didn't want him.
Early in the time when covid vaccines were becoming available, and some organizations were saying that you needed to be vaccinated to work here, it was remarked that many in management were quietly thrilled that some people were refusing the vaccines and quitting. The bosses were thrilled because these same vaccine refusers were the people they knew were difficult, unhelpful, a pain in the neck, and hard to get rid of, and now these annoying people were "firing" themselves. It was a gift and saved HR the fuss.
Yeah personally I was glad to see them go in the military. If you can't follow orders, and like Ryan pointed out we get vaccines for all sorts of stuff, I don't want you watching my back.
@@kell7195just cuz someone is alive doesn't mean the vaccine was a bad thing. You can't directly correlate the 2 since other factors go into them still being alive and many who got the vaccine are alive as well.
@@TheTee5231976 Requiring a vaccine for a mutation prone zoonotic virus is dumb. The same principle why mandatory flu vaccines are only required in a few select fields and unlike covid let you opt out due to ADA/Religious reasons.
thats kind of fallacious. soldiers should have the conscious to refuse bad orders bc thats how we prevent terrible things... the debate is wether the jab is a hindrance on medical freedom or not and wether it was appropriate to apply it to his occupation.
So he joined the Marines in order to find freedom? That makes a lot of sense. So when he didn't find freedom in the Marines he goes to Russia? I think the doctor squeezed too hard on the forceps when he was born. I'm glad he's not a cop.
Reminds me of the British girl who joined ISIS, got pregnant with an ISIS fighter three times, and then when ISIS collapsed and her husband died, she tried to come back to the UK only to get her citizenship revoked and was not allowed to come back.
Devils advocate here... Did anyone NOT make a stupid decision at 15? I think she has suffered a lot, and by not showing compassion, it breeds contempt and runs the risk of further atrocities. As I said, devils advocate. I honestly don't know either way. I agree with both arguments...
@morrit33 Sure, loads of 15 yo's make stupid mistakes. But flying abroad to join a califate/insurgency.... that's quite a bit above drinking an entire bottle of liquor. Or stealing a traffic sign and getting caught. Or trying to light a fart on fire. Most of those things seem cool in the moment. They don't require you getting your passport and booking a plane ticket - the difference is premeditation. (and, arguably, joining ISIS is wayyy dumber than stealing a traffic sign - _especially_ if you're a girl)
@@NimmiCat Because no one wants them? Americans believe that the world is wide open for them, it is not ! For an American to work in Europe for example, the company has to prove that no one on the job market is qualified. The company has the burden of proof. And many countries required the COVID vaccine for tourists and immigrants. And if you talk about military, there is only France taking in foreign soldiers with a standard mechanism, and they tend to check with there allies for those former soldiers. So unlikely he would be of interest to them. So his choice was very much limited in reality. He chose Trumpism.
That guy better hope Russia values him more as a propaganda piece than a trigger puller and keeps him back away from the front lines. The amount of artillery being used in this war is causing enormous casualties on both sides. In addition, Russia doesn't seem to prioritize the lives of its soldiers.
Hugo Boss (the person) designed and made the SS uniforms. After the war the company theoretically denounced their links to the NSDAP (National/Socialist German Workers Party) and paid reparations for slave labor.
When I was a Marine in Vietnam, we had a guy who deserted to North Vietnam. They told him they didn't trust him because he was a coward who wouldn't fight for his own country and sent him back.
THAT"S why he has that picture with him. If it goes badly for him, he thinks that pulling out that U.S. passport and that picture will get him out of a POW camp. If the Ukrainians are in the mood for taking prisoners that day...
There was an old Texas man who married a Russian woman and fought for separatists in Ukraine. Russian forces allegedly killed him because they mistakenly thought that he was a spy. This guy may suffer the same fate…
What??? you had a choice?? Damn.. When I got mine,they just sat me down asked me whether I was left or right handed, then rolled up the opposite... jab.
@@Vern-jn2djfairly certain practically every job isn't a democracy. That said, we aren't a democracy we are a Republic but you also don't lose your right to vote when you join the military. So not only do you get to protect the Republic you still have the right to participate in it while serving it.
There's a relatively recent story of a man who moved his family to Russia because he felt it was a more Christian nation, had anti-homosexuality laws and such. Then he found out that as a foreign national he was very restricted in what he could do for work, where he could live, etc. He ended up wanting to leave but couldn't afford the tickets for his family out of the country (or something similar). That is, he learned he had more freedom for everything in the US.
The Feenstras were actually Canadian. Your description of their botched immigration was correct. Last news from search engine is that they were deported due to visa. They travelled as tourists and could not stay since they failed residency requirements (e.g. learning language, opening bank accounts, etc.)
Yeah that sounds about right, the Russian army also required COVID vaccine too just like the US army so that is a fake reason why he joined. The COVID vaccine item is propaganda also his military service might be fake as well
I have 0 problem with anyone refusing medical treatment on any grounds whatsoever. What I fail to understand is the massive leap in mental gymnastics that goes from "I feel my own country has gotten too authoritarian" to "Im going to help one of my country's defacto enemies invade another country in an Imperialist land grab"
Let's not do that to him. Last I checked, only citizens can be charged with sedition and treason. most likely the former as we aren't currently in hot war with russia.
Former US Marine: I'm making a video to document my poor life choices that led me to be an outcast in my own country. Also, I'm now fighting for an infamous Russian dictator that denies his citizens all the rights I just told you I care about.
People who get out with anything other than honorable or medical discharge: They always have a story that paints themselves as some kind of hero or victim… they lie to the world because they can’t tell themselves the truth: they effed up somewhere and suffered the consequences.
Yeah? What about those kicked out before the repeal of "Don't Ask, Don't Tell," many of which still haven't had their discharges upgraded to "honorable?" They didn't "eff up somewhere;" they were just trying to serve their country. It's not as black-and-white as you make it out to be. I don't like this guy any more than the rest of you, but there are many people who really were done dirty.
@@lochlanweatherford5384 tragic heroes, every one; but breaking a rule, even one you think is unfair or that has since been changed, is still breaking a rule. Thanks for proving the point.
Guy was pissed he was told to do something in the Marine corp so he had a temper tantrum and joined the Russian military. Somebody please get this man a box of crayons.
Basic training pic, basic training pic.....MOM, where's my basic training pic...I need to show I didn't progress beyond that and my claims of declined promotion were BS. Since I say I was also in process to join a police dept as another excuse to try to verify I'm truly a moron to lie about this.
You don't even have to finish basic training to get a basic training pic. My friend still posts a pic of himself in a Marine Corps Dress Blues on November 10 and 11, despite never finishing due to an injury. I don't recall when photos are taken, but I left MCRD before I ever saw Dress Blues.
I see a Boot, who joined at 17 or 18, 1. had an "Complete Secondary Training, Promoted to Lance (E-3) deal," 2. was told, "Oh yeah, your enlistment as a marine get you a pass into the police department." 3. started having discipline issues or failing out from grades 4. Final straw was kicked because vaccine mandates
@@goforbroke4428 wow... why so disrespectful? Seems an over reaction. But to smooth your ruffled feathers, I did a quick internet search. "Is it possible for a recruit to become an E3 right after Marine Corp boot camp?" I found multiple instances of this happening. Generally does require the Recruit to be top of his Boot class, earning a meritorious promotion. So... yeah, I didn't do the search originally, but made an educated assumption. Offering promotions out of boot is a way to incentivize recruitment. So, yes, it is very possible for a recruit to earn or be promoted to E-3 out of Marine Boot camp.
I have my own beliefs about the vax, but when you join, you join for the cause and not for yourself. My sister couldn’t even count the amount of vaccines she received as an army translator in Iraq.
But didn't the courts side with the troops? You take a laundry list of shots when you deploy to countries where diseases we have erradicated exist. But in part we have erradicated them because we had decades of well developed shots which blocked transmission. The stuff was experimental, so the discharges could be reversed. At least last time I checked, I haven't kept up with the legal challenges.
@@ChucksSEADnDEAD Exactly, the problem was that the vaccines were new and considered ‘emergency use’, nobody should be forced to undergo any kind of unproven medical procedures.
Yep. This is nothing new. When I served guys were getting kicked out for not taking the Anthrax vaccine. I knew guys that refused taking it to get out of deploying to Korea. You volunteered to serve, no one made you.
I'm happy you bring this up- I think the whole invasion of Ukraine was indeed planned out since 2014, but I think covid is what made it become a reality. For reasons that you mentioned, Putin's popularity during covid was tanking and he needed an "easy" (lol) win. Kind of like Georgia in 2008, in the midst of a recession and 4 months after the NATO Bucharest summit where NATO made it official policy to eventually ingrate Georgia and Ukraine (article 23) into NATO. For Putin, war is but politics by other means.
-Where you from? -Eugene, Oregon -What are you doing in a Kraut uniform?! -Volksdeutsche. All true Aryans should join the fatherland. I answered the call.
I think he is too comfortable with Celsius, that's kind of suspicious for someone from Arizona. The way he says "not fur some of us" at 1:19 is suspicious, how hard he pronounces the t and the u sound in for, like he was tripping up on an American accent.
If you have no thermometers with Fahrenheit you have to use the Celsius readout. No matter how uncomfortable you are with Celsius, if you're asked the temperature and you're holding a thermometer with a °C readout, you're answering in °C instead of trying to convert it to °F in your head. If the road signs are in km he's not going to use miles either. It's not about comfort, he literally doesn't have the information about miles.
I have lived in the US for over 20 years now, and I still can't wrap my head around Ferenheight. When I look at my car's dash, which only gives me the temperature in F, I find it nearly impossible to tell what the temperature is, so when it comes up, and it has, I tell people, "74F whatever that means." At work, our thermostats are in F. I figured out that 74F feels similar to my room at home; I keep it around 23c.
If he can't join the arizona police academy, then it was a dishonorable discharge. At least according to them that is one of their only disqualifiers after having a felony conviction and no hs diploma/ged.
Correct interpretation: I refused an unconstitutional order, and an immoral order, because I'm not someone who bends those to the wills of an earthly government. And no, this is NOT me justifying him fighting for Russia, or involving himself in that conflict.
When you become a part of the military you sign your body and life away during your service. He chose not to follow a direct order and he had to face his consequences. Freedom gives you the choice but doesn't give you a pass from the consequences of your actions.
@@TheTee5231976 there shouldn't be a consequence for an unlawful order, which by the way the military quickly rolled back on its mandate because it was unlawful and immoral.
You have no idea how hard it is to lose US citizenship, it is as much a branding as a blessing. They view you as cattle, mostly for tax purposes. That said this guy is a traitor, and would probably face capital punishment if the US entered direct conflict.
The US doesn't revoke citizenship. There are almost no mechanisms to. IIRC Congress can if he becomes a monarch of a foreign nation but short of that he would have to willingly surrender it.
@@enoughrope1638 Trump introduced the Denaturalisation Section of the Justice Department, which's sole purpose is to revoke citizenships. The US has a long history of revoking citizenship. Mostly for undisclosed ties to Nazies or Communism and for a few years now for undisclosing you partook in genocide. On annother note, this might be an "Expatriating act under INA section 349(a)(3)", as the service is voluntary. So the USA would not revoke his citizenship, he signaled his intent to relinquish the US citizenship, by fighting for annother country. That only applies to officers or when the army he joined is in a conflict with the USA.
I find it comical that he had to freedom to refuse the shots, freedom to relocate to Russia and the freedom to express his views, and how he is in a place that criminalizes speech against the government, immigration out of the country and I am willing to bet that _IF_ the military cared enough about their readiness to keep them healthy, he will have a choice about getting a shot. It is a long standing feeling of mine that if you want to know if you are free, ask if you are free to leave.
More likely he was on track to joining the police AFTER his contract with the Marines was up. Because he was an other than honorable due to the covid mandate, he couldn't be a police officer. You all really need to do your research when you post this shit.
Man 25 yrs ago in the military, I got...so many vaccines and needles before any tasking. I got 12 one afternoon once, and here I am today. Wooo boy a needle
Is he actually from Arizona though? It sounds like he drops accent a few times by mistake. Kinda like how Andrew Tate can’t figure out if he is bri-TISH or not
The bad thing is this guy could do that. We technically aren't at war with Russia. My opinion is the law needs to change and this guy needs his citizenship revoked.
Imagine your grand parents had to hid under their desks each time the nuclear attack drill starts so their stupid grand son came and switch sides. Pathetic.
Imagine living on the other side, in Eastern Europe, hiding under a desk, because the Americans struck a deal with the Soviets about how the world gets divided between them. Nobody asked us and nobody is asking us yet again. Superpower pissing contest = our dead bodies.
To be fair, our grandparents also remember buying a house for $50K, not worrying about illegal immigration, hosing down protestors for entertainment, and watching Joe Biden run for office for the first time. To hell with the rest of the world, we need to fix our own house first!
@@mrico523There was hardly ever a deal at all. Yalta was a formality, most of what would become the Iron Curtain had already been taken by Soviet troops before then and nothing but a war (which no one was willing to wage) could have made Moscow give up that "buffer". Yalta was America accepting reality.
@@mrico523Did you just call Russia a superpower? 😂 Russia isn’t the Soviet Union mate. All they have is a mid-level economy, demographic issues. They had a large military that has now lost 60% of its combat platforms, but even at full size it was outdated and far from a military superpower.
@@RedWingsninetyoneI don’t think Russia thinks that far ahead by the time anyone important sees this and says save this guy he quite possibly is already dead
@@ghazkull1919 you'd probably be surprised. There were Americans that defected to North Korea after the Korean war. They were treated very well (by comparison to the average citizen there) and given roles playing Americans in North Korean movies. When they eventually tried to leave and got caught, the North Koreans were expected to punish them severely but they were actually upset that they treated the Americans poorly enough to make them want to leave that they sweetened the pot for them. I'm not saying Russia is North Korea by any means, but don't think they'd waste a propaganda opportunity if they could take advantage of it.
As a former valet, I did hate my life, kinda, but i was free to pull out of it, get married, go back to school, and now I do IT. So I am free to be stupid, but also free to improve and re-invent myself. I am not free from the consequences, good and bad, of my choices.
Agreed, but I've heard some interesting stories about Gulf War Syndrome. There's plenty of evidence that's come across the even mainstream wires about issues with the vaccines. None of which justifies switching teams to fight with the Russians. I would guess that Russia isn't as kind to not following those kind of orders.
Officer: Take that trench over there soldier. You will probably die, but do your duty. Soldier: Yes sir! Officer: Take this vaccine where there is a 0.00001% chance of complication Soldier: My freedom bro. I take my own orders.
So what happens to an American joins Russia to fight and later they want to come back? Can they return after fighting against our foreign policy goals?
I guess you're denied entry because you lost your citizenship or you go to prison or something in between. I mean CivDiv is fighting for Ukraine and he gets interrogated every time he goes back to the US so they're definitely on this kind of stuff.
The free man who chooses to go over to Russia to fight for what he belives right is a traitor yet the free man who chooses to serve in an army which is ilegally invading Syria and Irak is a "hero". Check your value system.
Out of any batch of servicemen, you'll always find someone who is seriously unhappy. This kid wouldn't be the first Marine to offer his services to the Russians.
Tbh. you guys in the States can call you lucky, this guy will never work for the police. Going from refusing the vaccination (totally fine) to fighting for Russia in an active war, let’s you imagine what could have happened if you don’t obey his, maybe questionable, order as a policeman.
@@geerid uuuggghhhh yeah I can especially if he took tax payers money for the training/benefits he received or is receiving from our military.

Please note, folks - this video seems to be a general assessment of whether the video and individual are likely to be real or not.
This video lacks detailed or topical information on the individual in question - no referenced military history, no disciplinary record, etc.
Ryan, it might make for a more interesting video if any concrete information becomes available.
....also, the military's handling of the covid vaccine and mandated injections was a mess. Significant mishandling of religious exceptions, some (rare) mistreatment and jailing of soldiers in otherwise good standing.
In any event, if this guy is real and is saying what he thinks there's a lot wrong with his logic lol
Russia is not better in terms of personal freedom🤦♂️
@ryan Macbeth you any thoughts on that Russian channel you covered a while ago at that event who touched the tank as I saw his most recent video seems to be talking a little about you
@RyanMcBethProgramming I don't know if you had heard but thousands of people were kicked out of the military for refusing to take the vaccine most were people who had done nothing wrong before
That moment when your comment gets deleted seconds after posting
thanks Ryan

When I was a kid (in America), we told Polack jokes. We told lots of different racist/nationality jokes because America is the land of equality, but the Polacks were all associated with being dumb. “How many Polacks does it take to screw in a lightbulb? Three. One to climb up the ladder and two to turn the ladder.”
But we never turned the word Polack or the name of the country into a verb or descriptor for being dumb or doing something dumb.
I remember taking a Scandinavian vacation and hearing the same joke in Norway and Sweden, the only difference being that the nationalities were switched. In Sweden: Did you hear about the Swedish psychopath that escaped from the insane asylum? They eventually found him teaching school in Norway. And vice versa in Norway.
National rivalry jokes are as old as the day is long. In the U.S. we also have regional and state rivalry jokes (including a lot of jokes about Texas). But the jokes haven’t entered the vocabulary like Russian jokes have entered the Finnish language. Bravo to the Finns. But the real credit goes to Russia for being so ryssiä. 😂
He's mad at the USA for his actions so he went to Russia to fight for a dictator in a war of aggression. Hope he can't come back.
If they let him back into the us he's going to serve prison time though it's more likely that his citizenship will of been revoked and I can imagine that russian passports are receiving many visas these days
He might come back as sunflower seed oil...😅

An American and a Russian are talking about their countries. The American starts to brag; "In my country, I can walk into the Oval Office, slam my fist on the president's desk, and say "Mr. President, I don't like the way you're running this country!"
The russian appears unimpressed and says "We can do that in my country." The American says "Really?" Mhm." says the Russian. "I can walk right into the Kremlin, slam my fist on Gorbachev's desk and say "I don't like the way President Reagan is running his country."

The American government decides freely - I will arrest these, but not these.
The 5 years in prison is quite a clue.
“A jobless mercenary who has been disowned by his father and a former National Front member have been labelled an 'absolute disgrace' after becoming the first two British men known to be fighting for Russia in Ukraine.
Ben Stimson, 48, posted a video on social media this weekend of him standing in front of a Russian flag wearing military fatigues alongside Aiden Minnis, 37, saying: 'Yes, yes, I'm back in Russia, I'm back in uniform.'
The traitor has posted a number of videos online since he fled to Donetsk in February to join Putin's marauding forces, including sickening footage released last night which showed frontline soldiers walking past two dead bodies.
In one of his videos, he declares: 'Every man takes his choice... a lot of us, the foreign volunteers, have chosen to come over to this side, to the Russian side.'
Stimson, who had previously been jailed for assisting pro-Russian militia forces in the Donbass region in 2015, is currently fighting Ukrainian soldiers with the Pyatnashka brigade.
His 'best British friend in the Russian army' Minnis is a former drug addict and convicted thug from Chippenham, who calls himself a 'Z Patriot' and a 'sapper in the Russian army'.
The Wiltshire man has also been active on social media recently, championing Putin, hailing the Russian tyrant as 'still the greatest politician on earth' in one of his posts.
Former British Army commander Colonel Richard Kemp furiously called for the pair to be arrested, raging: 'These two are an absolute disgrace and are traitors who upon their return to the UK should be arrested and jailed.' “
So just to summarise, he was a vagrant, homeless, a criminal, a heiron addict and a member of a far right movement and was disowned by his own family.
What exactly did he have for Britain to take from him?
He might say, Britain took his freedom, his dignity, and his future away, but I'm sure the courts can demonstrate that he gave all those away for the low low price of becoming an influencer for the Russian military.
How's he a traitor. How is fighting ukriane, a nation he has no obligation to make him a traitor. If he wanted to go out and fight against his country then yeah but I doubt this bloke would
@@MMuraseofSandvichbecause he's fighting for Russia, a nation that does everything it can to oppose British interests, meddle in British politics, attack British infrastructure, and threaten British security.

As someone who's served in both the National Guard and regular Army, this guy feels like a reservist, not someone on fulltime active duty. That explains him trying to get a job as at a police department while in the Marines.
I think you are right.
exactly. cops will give you time off for military, reservist etc but i think thats it, you cant full time at both, plus as the same time, he may have been trying to cover his bases as i would say he was maybe on the way out for not just the vax refusal, he stinks of having a problem from the day he first polished his boots. i dont think hes in the 70% general discharge category and its maybe why he 'lost' his seat. im wondering if he has warrants now...
If he even served in the Corps. Those boot camp photos are taken in the first phase. It is no guarantee that he didn’t “bilge” out in the second or third phase.
I saw LAPD recruiting ads at Camp Pendleton and the process takes several months. I wouldn’t be surprised if the guy started the process prior to discharge or immediately after (ie. send in his application and resume) but when the issue of his discharge came up he got dropped. I also wouldn’t be surprised if they did a social media check too.
@@SEAZNDragon yep ive seen it here in canada as well, saw a guy who dated a good friend of mine get rejected because most of his pics on FB were of him being a full on ammosexual, shooting at things with images taped to them, and a ton of gun show pics of him posing very much in a glorified manner, as someone with a less than mature outlook at guns (my family has over a dozen rifles etc but we dont try to look like we are hot for tactical weapons etc). especially now with a few officers on the wrong side of the law (its come out in the media where i am that local cops were heavily involved in trafficking as well as some have gone to jail for sex crimes while on duty, etc. big effort to clean up their image.
Dudes probably have arrest warrants at home thats why they fled lol
Honestly, the amount of Americans that think that freedom means "I get to do whatever I want and I should have no consequences" is... frightening.
It is! Less people want to respect each other.....
Not as many as Americans who think that freedom is doing what they're told and expecting it to be free of consequences.
And they whine about how bad they have it while driving around in their $70,000 extended cab truck.
Russia is a society where no freedom is imposed upon, especially the freedom to impose on the freedom of others. It's why libertarians like Russia so much and people who think that Russia is more free always imagine that it's themselves imposing on others freedom instead of the other way around.
@@roland228 I have never seen a libertarian who likes Russia lol. Most libertarians hate even the most libertarian governments there are right now
PSA: Remember there was an American soldier stationed in South Korea who fled to North Korea just to get away from the military police.

Great comment, reminds me of my friend Jim Park and his family's views
Joseph Dresnok is probably the guy you're thinking of. He died in 2017, and was one of 7 total defecting US soldiers in the Korean War. You can see a documentary about him on RUclips called "Crossing the Line". It's a weird story, and not a very happy one.
@@takeshikovacs02 This was the young man in the Army recently who was being sent back to the states to be disciplinary separated from service. He jumped the border and was of course detained by the North Koreans. Now normally when something like that happens NK makes propaganda out of it. However shortly thereafter he was repatriated without fanfare. Apparently he was such a jerk even the North Koreans didn't want him.
Early in the time when covid vaccines were becoming available, and some organizations were saying that you needed to be vaccinated to work here, it was remarked that many in management were quietly thrilled that some people were refusing the vaccines and quitting. The bosses were thrilled because these same vaccine refusers were the people they knew were difficult, unhelpful, a pain in the neck, and hard to get rid of, and now these annoying people were "firing" themselves. It was a gift and saved HR the fuss.
Yet those people are still alive 🤷🏼♂
Yeah personally I was glad to see them go in the military. If you can't follow orders, and like Ryan pointed out we get vaccines for all sorts of stuff, I don't want you watching my back.
@@kell7195just cuz someone is alive doesn't mean the vaccine was a bad thing. You can't directly correlate the 2 since other factors go into them still being alive and many who got the vaccine are alive as well.

This is exactly who you don't want a a police officer - someone who wants the freedom to fight militarily without restrictions or consequences.
You should probably let the police know about that.
thats kind of fallacious. soldiers should have the conscious to refuse bad orders bc thats how we prevent terrible things... the debate is wether the jab is a hindrance on medical freedom or not and wether it was appropriate to apply it to his occupation.

You don't even have to finish basic training to get a basic training pic. My friend still posts a pic of himself in a Marine Corps Dress Blues on November 10 and 11, despite never finishing due to an injury. I don't recall when photos are taken, but I left MCRD before I ever saw Dress Blues.

I see a Boot, who joined at 17 or 18,
1. had an "Complete Secondary Training, Promoted to Lance (E-3) deal,"
2. was told, "Oh yeah, your enlistment as a marine get you a pass into the police department."
3. started having discipline issues or failing out from grades
4. Final straw was kicked because vaccine mandates
Didn’t know marines gave e-3 like the army. Thought E-2 was the highest you could get without college.

@@goforbroke4428 wow... why so disrespectful? Seems an over reaction.
But to smooth your ruffled feathers, I did a quick internet search.
"Is it possible for a recruit to become an E3 right after Marine Corp boot camp?"
I found multiple instances of this happening.
Generally does require the Recruit to be top of his Boot class, earning a meritorious promotion.
So... yeah, I didn't do the search originally, but made an educated assumption. Offering promotions out of boot is a way to incentivize recruitment.
So, yes, it is very possible for a recruit to earn or be promoted to E-3 out of Marine Boot camp.

I have my own beliefs about the vax, but when you join, you join for the cause and not for yourself. My sister couldn’t even count the amount of vaccines she received as an army translator in Iraq.
Yep. You know this stuff when you sign-up. They were booting guys out for not taking the Anthrax vaccine when I was in. It's nothing new.
Deep State U$A
But didn't the courts side with the troops?
You take a laundry list of shots when you deploy to countries where diseases we have erradicated exist. But in part we have erradicated them because we had decades of well developed shots which blocked transmission.
The stuff was experimental, so the discharges could be reversed. At least last time I checked, I haven't kept up with the legal challenges.
@@ChucksSEADnDEAD Exactly, the problem was that the vaccines were new and considered ‘emergency use’, nobody should be forced to undergo any kind of unproven medical procedures.
Yep. This is nothing new. When I served guys were getting kicked out for not taking the Anthrax vaccine. I knew guys that refused taking it to get out of deploying to Korea.
You volunteered to serve, no one made you.
So, he went to Russia where vaccination with Russian Sputnic was mandatory too :P
RT Germany: Vaccination is harmful.
RT Russia: You need to vaccinated like Putin .....
Good old 2020.....
I'm happy you bring this up- I think the whole invasion of Ukraine was indeed planned out since 2014, but I think covid is what made it become a reality. For reasons that you mentioned, Putin's popularity during covid was tanking and he needed an "easy" (lol) win. Kind of like Georgia in 2008, in the midst of a recession and 4 months after the NATO Bucharest summit where NATO made it official policy to eventually ingrate Georgia and Ukraine (article 23) into NATO. For Putin, war is but politics by other means.

Just reading "promoted" and "Marines" in the same sentence crosses my eyes 🥴
I think he is too comfortable with Celsius, that's kind of suspicious for someone from Arizona. The way he says "not fur some of us" at 1:19 is suspicious, how hard he pronounces the t and the u sound in for, like he was tripping up on an American accent.
If you have no thermometers with Fahrenheit you have to use the Celsius readout.
No matter how uncomfortable you are with Celsius, if you're asked the temperature and you're holding a thermometer with a °C readout, you're answering in °C instead of trying to convert it to °F in your head.
If the road signs are in km he's not going to use miles either. It's not about comfort, he literally doesn't have the information about miles.
Not really, considering he was probably around people thinking in Celsius for a longer time already.
I don't catch that the first time. Yeah all of his wording is really off.
I have lived in the US for over 20 years now, and I still can't wrap my head around Ferenheight. When I look at my car's dash, which only gives me the temperature in F, I find it nearly impossible to tell what the temperature is, so when it comes up, and it has, I tell people, "74F whatever that means." At work, our thermostats are in F. I figured out that 74F feels similar to my room at home; I keep it around 23c.
If he can't join the arizona police academy, then it was a dishonorable discharge. At least according to them that is one of their only disqualifiers after having a felony conviction and no hs diploma/ged.
From a cop of 30 years this guy is full of crap!
He didn’t want a COVID shot so instead he became an Orc. Well thoughts and prayers Meat.
Allow me to translate:
"I refused a lawful direct order and didn't get a promotion so I threw a tantrum".
Correct interpretation: I refused an unconstitutional order, and an immoral order, because I'm not someone who bends those to the wills of an earthly government.
And no, this is NOT me justifying him fighting for Russia, or involving himself in that conflict.

When you become a part of the military you sign your body and life away during your service. He chose not to follow a direct order and he had to face his consequences. Freedom gives you the choice but doesn't give you a pass from the consequences of your actions.

How to lose your US citizenship 101
You have no idea how hard it is to lose US citizenship, it is as much a branding as a blessing. They view you as cattle, mostly for tax purposes. That said this guy is a traitor, and would probably face capital punishment if the US entered direct conflict.
The US doesn't revoke citizenship. There are almost no mechanisms to. IIRC Congress can if he becomes a monarch of a foreign nation but short of that he would have to willingly surrender it.
And US citizen fighting for ukraine is a good thing? 😂😂
@@enoughrope1638 Trump introduced the Denaturalisation Section of the Justice Department, which's sole purpose is to revoke citizenships. The US has a long history of revoking citizenship. Mostly for undisclosed ties to Nazies or Communism and for a few years now for undisclosing you partook in genocide.
On annother note, this might be an "Expatriating act under INA section 349(a)(3)", as the service is voluntary. So the USA would not revoke his citizenship, he signaled his intent to relinquish the US citizenship, by fighting for annother country. That only applies to officers or when the army he joined is in a conflict with the USA.
@@City1Tigeryes , actually
I find it comical that he had to freedom to refuse the shots, freedom to relocate to Russia and the freedom to express his views, and how he is in a place that criminalizes speech against the government, immigration out of the country and I am willing to bet that _IF_ the military cared enough about their readiness to keep them healthy, he will have a choice about getting a shot. It is a long standing feeling of mine that if you want to know if you are free, ask if you are free to leave.
Yep. My rule of thumb is "check which way the barbed wire fence faces to tell which is the freedom side."
@@workingclasschump That's a good guideline!
To be rejected by police you got to be super dumb
