I'm a forty-two-year-old male who's lived the entirety of my life in Sydney City of Australia, and I'm cautiously optimistic that the human species - as a (generally speaking) collective - will eventually reconcile the various rifts and divisions that have arisen throughout history, and that span across such a vast scope of races and cultures and socio-economic classes in every sovereign state across the planet we all call "home". I really hope this somehow begins to transpire sometime in the next decade, but right now it's an enormous challenge that's being seemingly made more complicated on account of the defining features of the so-called "digital age". How ironic that I'm expressing myself in the very same medium, but that's the great thing about it, we can use it for positive means! Education is always the key, and hopefully the Russians can somehow adapt themselves to adopt more open-minded principles in the spirit of respect and dignity.
Shishkin is brethren with so many exiled writers throughout history. Thomas Mann left Germany and wound up in Los Angeles. His house in Pacific Palisades was bought by German government recently and made into a cultural center. Perhaps someday Shishkin will have his own cultural center in Switzerland. Excellent interview.
Thank you google gods for bringing the channel into my feed because this was wonderful ... more please so I gladly subscribed and rang the bell. One question though, how can I emigrate to Switzerland? Wherever you were at the start of the interview was idyllic. 😀
Subtitles are a great invention. One doesn't have to choose between the voice and the (translated) meaning. I don't understand why this has been made in the voice over style. Voice has (is) personality!
Русские любят того, кто сейчас у власти. Они любили Николая II, потом Сталина, убийцу Николая II, потом Хрущёва, который разоблачил Сталина, потом Брежнева, который сместил Хрущёва и т. д. Это черта народа. Русские считают, что страна и актуальная власть это одно и тоже. Поэтому такие невесёлые перспективы демократии в России. Писатели Стругацкие писали обэтом: " В споре рабовладельца и освободителя, раб всегда принимает сторону рабовладельца, т. к. рабовладельцем он может себя представить, а освободителем - нет". Ментально это Швейцария 14 века.
I'm looking at the title, and think: Yes, it's time for a new Tsar. The one we have now is just sooo tiresome. Been there way too long. Too old. Still struggling with the first piece of his empire reconstitution. Just not happening.
@@adagietto2523 yes, but I didn’t make a very good case in my small comment. What I meant was, just by deciding to remain in Russia, would have signaled that he’s a Russian patriot. Russians today who reside in Russia, fully back their government by a supermajority, because they love their country, rightly or wrongly. Russians who move to Germany, Israel or the US, tend to adopt a western, liberal mindset. That’s all I’m saying
Ben, I almost agree with you, but I think he is too dumb to appreciate anything. Statements of stunning ignorance fall from his mouth every time he opens it.
Русский язык всегда был языком убийц, от геноцида Новгорода до геноцида черкесов, до геноцида чеченцев, до геноцида украинцев. Перечитайте "Хаджи Мурат" Толстого, "Юдоль" Лескова. Язык, конечно, не виноват, но он атрибут убийственной культуры, не способной преодолеть отрицание собственной лживой и самоубийственной природы. Позиция жертвы непродуктивна.
Английский язык всегда был языком убийц, от геноцида ирландцев до геноцида индийцев, до геноцида кенийцев , етц. атрибут убийственной культуры, не способной преодолеть отрицание собственной лживой и самоубийственной природы. А на украинском языке говорили убийцы евреев и белоруссов, "герои" Украины, пособники нацистов.
Russian proverb: "People deserve their government." From a RUclipsr's interview, Russian women still prefer guys who are "strong & manly", American women (everywhere else) prefer "personality, sense of humor", it seems the rest of the world had evolved out of the medieval "Game of Thrones" except Russians still worship that last man.
Oh, this is very shortsighted. The West could well have left Ukraine and Russia alone, and now still could live in relative peace, and a magnitude of perhaps a million people would still live. Are you even able to understand and respect that idea of life? The War on Terror did cost 4.5 M lives, according to several sources. You dare talk about modernity? How modern is messianic delusion riding on a vehicle of colonial universalism, that wants to impose the rule of Atlantic oligarchy and extortion on everyone else on the whole planet? (See Coltan mines and black soil land grabbing, please listen to Vijay Prashad and Vandana Shiva - oh, commies and regionalists are evil and irrelevant,no?) Utopian ideology right now is killing masses, because to the "other(othered)" side of Earth it is absolutely unbearable and counterproductive. They have to defend THEIR ways of life from that deceitful "universalism". To them, it is opium wars, Vietnam, pre-Gandhi colonialism, Hiroshima...
So, who will fight in the Western crusades? Strong and manly guys, back from Huxley's lab, fully programmable ubermensch? How mad is it to transform society into a state of verbose wokeness, that sees masculinity as toxic, and then provoke wars that cannot be won without the classic "Full Metal Jacket" and "Rambo" guy? Some rhetorics here about war-lazyness and transforming economy to become war-ready, are already starting, what an embarrassing u-turn.
As a Norwegian, I am skeptical to what NATO did leading up to the war. I am also skeptical to the Ultra Nationalists running Ukraine. But above all, I am skeptical to Mr Putin & the Russian state. To me, living in a liberal democracy, Russia is the definition of a Fascist state. Only surpassed by North Korea & China.
Democracy is just an illusion. People who control Hollywood and control the media machine/social media will dictate what ideas are popular and what ideas are not. So whether it is the state who controls the major media info distribution or a bunch of powerful business men, the result is what THEY dictate is what the outcome of elections will be. I'm from Sweden btw. There is just as much democracy here as there is in Russia or Ukraine.
Maybe Victoria Nuland shouldn't have been meddling in the affairs of foreign nations to carve them up for the IMF, WEF, Blackrock, Occidental Petroleum, etc etc.
Maybe Ukrainians shouldn’t have seen Poland, Lithuania and every country who turned to EU becomes 10 times more prosperous and fair normal countries, while in Russia, the thieves at the top take everything for themselves. It’s really, really simple. Russia is a shithole for 99% of people.
cut the crap, This is an advisory role played by nations in "foreign" nations all the time, all-over the world, including by China and Russia. Nuland (despite being a neo-con c*unt) only advised the UA opposition (upon request) when Yanukovitch proposed to bring said opposition onboard of the UA government, in order to de-escalate when maidan started, but BEFORE it escalated. Her proposal was to choose [shocker]: the leader of the main opposition party, vs Klitchko who was one of the leaders of the maidan protest. Something the kremlin saw as betrayal by Yanukovitch and as per same behaviour for the last 3 decades in UA (a FOREIGN nation to them) meddled by escalating to violence and throwing Yanukovitch under the bus. Stop playing the useful idi@t, feeding the irrational fear of kleptofascist authoritarians loosing their power-grip, because they think whole populations couldn’t possibly have the agency to reject them (& live in perpetual poverty & dependence from - in this case - the kremlin) w/o aid from some evil "foreign" detractors.
This man has lived in Russia and in the west and he has no understanding of either culture. He is living in a bubble of deliberate ignorance. One thing is certain - if he is willing to give these anti-Russian interviews to the western press, they will continue to pay him.

Truth I wish everyone could see and make a good response to, the present situation is horrific.

I love this interview. It is one from a deep reflective soul.
Explosive interview!

He’s been in Switzerland for 30 years, he’s basically Swiss now. If he had stayed in Russia, he would be supporting Putin, 100%.
That's just silly, because it assumes that no one who lives in an authoritarian state has any internal freedom , which is patently untrue.

@@bensanderson7144 all you are saying isn't true. There are a lot of Russian and non-Russian immigrants in Europe supporting Putin.
Каким местом он русский писатель? Русский писатель определяется не национальностью.
Не называйте себя русским и не страдайте.
